Abstract: An edge-enhancement processing apparatus which removes
problems of the conventional edge enhancement processing, which
requires checking by an operator's visual observation or a
high-frequency band filter, thus complicating the construction.
A computer main body 21, as the nucleus of edge enhancement
processing, calculates an edge amount as vector change level
while generating a vector based on the difference values of data
between adjacent pixels, at step S110, then selects and
integrates edge amounts of only pixels having large edge amounts
at steps S120 and S130, and obtains the mean value at step S230,
to obtain the sharpness level of the image while adding attention
to the pixels having large image change levels. The computer
main body 21 determines an edge enhancement level Eenhance based
on the image sharpness level. Thus, the computer main body 21
automatically performs edge enhancement processing at an
optimum enhancement level.

Abstract: The objective of this invention is to provide a type of data processing device and a type of data recording/reproduction device that can restart data write processing correctly from an interruption position after data write processing on a recording medium is interrupted. When write is interrupted, prescribed information that indicates the tail of the data written before said interruption is obtained from the written data. When write is restarted, first, data read processing is started. From the read data, the tail of the write data before said interruption is determined based on said obtained information. Then, data write processing is restarted and connected to said determined tail of the write data. In write clock signal generating part (45), write clock signal CK3 locked to the phase of read clock signal CK2 is generated. Consequently, it is possible to suppress discontinuity in the connection of write in company with switching from read processing to write processing.

Abstract: A system that includes a graphical user interface that may be used to access information contained in a database is provided. The graphical user interface includes a matrix of icons that correspond to elements in the database. By minimizing the size of the icons, a sufficient number of icons may be displayed in the matrix so as to establish an overall context of the elements in the database. Various techniques may be employed to highlight individual icons within the matrix while still preserving the overall context. In this manner, additional insight into the nature of the database may be gained Further, the system can use translucence to allow detailed data to be superimposed on the matrix without impairing the viewing of the matrix's contents.

Abstract: A system and process for computing a 3D reconstruction of a scene from multiple images thereof, which is based on a color segmentation-based approach, is presented. First, each image is independently segmented. Second, an initial disparity space distribution (DSD) is computed for each segment, using the assumption that all pixels within a segment have the same disparity. Next, each segment's DSD is refined using neighboring segments and its projection into other images. The assumption that each segment has a single disparity is then relaxed during a disparity smoothing stage. The result is a disparity map for each image, which in turn can be used to compute a per pixel depth map if the reconstruction application calls for it.
