Title: Video compression under multiple distortion constraints
Inventor: LI ZHEN
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2009-06-18
Granted: 2011-11-30
Abstract: Video compression is performed under multiple distortion constraints. Video coding includes determining a first set of Lagrangian cost values for multiple coding modes using a first distortion metric, determining a second set of Lagrangian cost values for the multiple coding modes using a second distortion metric, and selecting one of the coding modes based on the first set of Lagrangian cost values and the second set of Lagrangian cost values to encode a pixel block using the selected coding mode. The distortion metrics can include information associated with video display characteristics such as screen display size, video processing performance, a distortion characteristic, a temporal characteristic, or a spatial characteristic. The distortion metrics can also include characteristics of multiple video displays, such as parameters for usage, importance, design, and the technology type of the video displays.

Abstract: In a process for producing coatings adhering to the surface while being removable, a treatment liquid is produced from PUR elastomers enabling a thermoplastic treatment by admixing a solvent. Said treatment liquid, fluid or viscous depending on the mixture ratio, is applied to the surface and forms after evaporation of the solvent a coating adhering solidly to the surface while being completely removable if required. Even in the case of a thin wall, said coating has an excellent tear resistance while being elastic and flexible. Its surface is absolutely tight and it provides a reliable protection against the mechanical effects and the like. It is preferably used for the reconditioning and the repair of tyres of motor vehicles, the necessary rubber envelope being replaced by the coating. Said coating may also be used as a protection against oxidation and adverse mechanical influences for the rough lower surface of the prefabricated rubber tread for the reconditioning of tyres of motor vehicles.

Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided for performing an assay on whole blood samples. The method is for a determination of an analyte which is a member of a specific binding pair (sbp) consisting of ligand and homologous receptor. The method involves a binding agent for the red blood cells in such sample, a solid bibulous element to which is bound at least one sbp member, and a signal-producing system. The method comprises combining the whole blood sample, the binding agent, and none or, where appropriate, one or more members of the signal producing system. The medium is next contacted with a portion of a solid bibulous element to which is bound one of the members of the specific binding pair to allow the medium to traverse such element (immunochromatography). The solid bibulous element is contacted with any remaining members of the signal producing system. Signal resulting from the signal producing system is detected and is related to the amount of the analyte in the sample.
