Title: Manipulation of transform coefficient blocks in high-efficiency video coding (HEVC)
Inventor: SHARMAN KARL JAMES
IPC: H04N19/18
Filed: 2012-11-22
Abstract: A video coding method is described in which luminance and chrominance image samples, in a video format in which the chrominance image samples are subsampled with respect to the luminance samples so that a square image area is represented by a rectangular array of samples, are predicted from other respective samples according to a prediction direction associated with respective prediction blocks. The method comprises: for an NXM input block 1600 of chrominance samples (where M= 2N), generating one or more residual blocks (e.g. residual image block 1720 from residual image 1710) as the difference between a block of chrominance samples taken from the original input block and a predicted version of that block. A spatial frequency transform is applied to one or more transform blocks derived from each respective residual block. The spatial frequency transform generates a transform coefficient block (e.g. 1910,1920) of transform coefficients from each transform block. The transform coefficient blocks are combined to generate a combined transform coefficient block (e.g. 2040). The combined transform coefficient blocks are then subject to entropy encoding 2020. Also disclosed is a method in which the two blocks for transform are (e.g. 1760,1770) are derived from each residual block by applying a split (e.g. 1740) according to alternate rows of samples. Video coding apparatus and associated methods and apparatus for decoding video are also disclosed.

Title: Authentication method & system
Inventor: PIKE JUSTIN
IPC: G06Q20/32
Filed: 2013-02-25
Abstract: A computer-implemented authentication method is suitable for use in situations where a users identity must be verified before a requested operation is performed. In assessing the authorisation of the user 1, the current location of a device such as a mobile phone 3 or tablet computer known to be associated with the user 1 is determined. If the location falls within a pre-defined, designated geographical area 4a then the operation is completed, otherwise it fails. In use, a customer 1 makes a purchase in an on-line store via a retailer's web site 2, and enters his card details. The invention software extracts that data and feeds it to the retailer's virtual terminal 8. Having completed the authentication process which may also include the entry of a pre-stored PIN, password or access code, the formatted transaction is passed to the issuing bank 7 and funds transferred.

Title: Loudspeaker protection systems and methods
Inventor: MAGRATH ANTHONY JAMES
IPC: H04R3/00
Filed: 2014-01-24
Abstract: The loudspeaker is driven based on an input signal Din and monitoring both a voltage Vspka applied to said voice coil and a current Ispka flowing through said voice coil. From the monitored voltage and current an estimate of temperature TVC of said voice coil and an estimate of power dissipation Pd in said voice coil is determined. An estimate of the voice coil resistance Re based on the monitored voltage and current and at least the estimate of temperature is determined based the estimate of resistance. A gain control signal Gmod is generated as a function of both said estimate of voice coil temperature and said estimate of voice coil power dissipation. Thus high power dissipation can be permitted when the voice coil temperature is low enough whilst at high voice coil temperatures any gain modulation applied for thermal protection can be reduced if the power dissipation level drops.
