Abstract: As an embodiment of a moving picture encoding apparatus, a moving picture type judgment section judges whether an input moving picture is a stereoscopic picture and, when the moving picture is a stereoscopic picture, a stereoscopic picture identifier is set to "1" and a moving picture rotation section rotates the moving picture clockwise by +90 degrees or -90 degrees. On the other hand, when the moving picture is not a stereoscopic picture, the stereoscopic picture identifier is set to "0" and the moving picture is not rotated. Then, a moving picture interlaced encoding section produces an encoded bit stream by performing interlaced encoding of the moving picture and a stereoscopic picture identifier encoding section produces encoded information by encoding the stereoscopic picture identifier. Further, a multiplexing section produces a multiplexed encoded bit stream by multiplexing the above-mentioned encoded bit stream and encoded information.

Abstract: A method for a device to determine a group owner that functions as an access point in a wireless network is provided. In the method, a first device acquires first intention information indicating the first device's intention to become a group owner and receives, from a second device, second intention information indicating the second device's intention to become a group owner, and compares the first intention information and the second intention information to determine that one of the first and second devices is a group owner. This method enables smooth communication between devices in a wireless network since a device which has more available power or can operate for a longer time can become a group owner.

Abstract: An image recognition apparatus detects a specific object image from an image to be processed, calculates a coincidence degree between an object recognisability state of the object image and that of an object in registered image information, and calculates a similarity between the image feature of the object image and the image feature in the registered image information. Based on the similarity and coincidence degree, the image recognition apparatus recognizes whether the object of the object image is that of the registered image information. When the similarity is lower than the first threshold and the coincidence degree is equal to or higher than the second threshold, the image recognition apparatus recognizes that the object of the object image is different from that of the registered image information.
