Abstract: A method and an apparatus improving the coding
efficiency by representing encoded data in a compact form
by means of a pattern matching technique. A waveform
vector similar to a partial signal waveform of an image
signal in a predetermined group of waveform vectors is
searched for. When a compression encoding is performed
for information to identify the waveform vector searched
for, similarity information, and a position in an image
signal of the partial signal waveform in accordance with a
predetermined encoding rule, the position in the image
signal of the partial signal waveform is encoded through
replacement with position information in a predetermined
partial domain of the image signal. As a result, since
the position in the image of the partial signal waveform
that is the most similar to the waveform vector is encoded
through replacement with the position information in the
predetermined partial domain of the image signal, it is
possible to represent the position more compactly.

Patent EP-1391223-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SUZUKI KENJI
IPC: A62D101/22
Filed: 2002-05-16
Abstract: Toxic PCB has been broadly used as insulating oil in electric
equipment such as capacitors, transformers and the like. Since the PCB is
a refractory organic compound, the disposal of PCB is not advanced until
now. This is a great social problem in Japan and the world. Thus, the early
disposal of PCB is demanded. 
     The conventional PCB disposing systems include a burnout type
high-temperature disposing system and a chemical decomposing system.
However, the high-temperature burning system is not satisfactorily
improved due to various problems such as a difficulty of control for a
furnace, a problem of disposing the ash containing non-decomposed PCB,
a problem of generation of dioxin in lower processing temperature, a
problem of movement of the PCB and a problem of not obtaining the
agreement of inhabitants. Moreover, the chemical decomposing system
raises various other problems in that a plant must be constructed with a
huge investment that is said to be equal to 40 hundred millions per plant,
that PCB must be transported to the PCB disposing plant and that the PCB
disposing speed in the plan is too slow. 
     The present invention provides a novel PCB electrolyzing and
disposing method and apparatus based on a new idea in which the PCB
used as electrically insulating oil can be electrolyzed by passing the
electricity through the PCB. The PCB disposing apparatus of the present
invention may be portable. Thus, the apparatus can be moved to any PCB
storage place to dispose the PCB in place without transportation of the
PCB. In addition to the introduction of the PCB into an electrolyzing tank,
the PCB may be electrolyzed by pouring water into the container of
equipment containing the remaining PCB, inserting the inserting portion
including the electric-wave rod, electrode rods and others into the water to
electrolyze the PCB. A PCB-polluted container may be placed in a
large-sized disposing tank for electrolysis. 
     The system of the present invention may be used as a soil
improving apparatus by placing PCB- or dioxin-polluted soil in a
disposing tank and electrolyzing the PCB or dioxin therein. 
     The apparatus of the present invention may be manufactured in 
smaller to larger sizes, depending on processing scale, and may be
manufactured as a portable apparatus, as a large-scaled plant or as an
integral unit mounted on a vehicle. Moreover, the system of the present
invention can dispose the PCB with a greatly reduced cost and in an
increased speed, in comparison with the prior art. According to the present
invention, the disposal of PCB can be sharply be accelerated in Japan and
the world.
