Inventor: CHUANG CHENG-YEN
IPC: H04N19/51
Filed: 2022-12-15
Abstract: A video coding system generating candidates for Merge Mode with Motion Vector Difference (MMVD) with reduced resource usage is provided. The system receives data to be encoded or decoded as a current block of a current picture of a video. The system identifies multiple MMVD candidates for different offset positions based on a merge candidate of the current block. The system generates reference samples for the identified MMVD candidates. The system reconstructs the current block or encodes the current block into a bitstream by using the generated reference samples. The system processes the MMVD candidates in separate groups: a first group of vertical MMVD candidates and a second group of horizontal MMVD candidates. The system generates the reference samples for the identified MMVD candidates by applying a vertical filter to source reference samples of horizontal MMVD candidates and then applying a horizontal filter to outputs of the vertical filter.

Title: Спосіб препарування зубів
Filed: 2000-06-06
Abstract: Винахід відноситься до медицини, а саме, до стоматології і може бути використаним для захисту тканин зубів, що були препаровані під опорні елементи незнімних конструкцій протезів. Спосіб захисту тканин зубів після їх препарування полягає у наступному: після препарування на оперовану поверхню твердих тканин зуба послідовно впливають гіпертонічним, гіпотонічним, ізотонічним розчинами суміші іонів солей після чого обробляють поверхню дентину водним розчином азотнокислого срібла та розчином хлористого натрію. Обробка гіпертонічним, гіпотонічним, ізотонічним розчинами поверхні відпрепарованого зуба дозволяє збільшити грузькість рідини дентинного ліквора, що у свою чергу підвищує концентрацію білків та мінеральних солей у дентинових канальцях. Це збільшує його щільність, нівелює надлишковий капілярний тиск і таким чином припиняє його витікання. Обробка поверхні дентину водним розчином азотнокислого срібла та розчином хлористого натрію призводить до хімічного закриття просвітків устів канальців дентину.
