Patent EP-2230848-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SEKIGUCHI SHUNICHI
IPC: H04N19/105
Filed: 2003-06-24
Abstract: Each of an image coding apparatus and an image decoding apparatus uses a motion compensated prediction using virtual samples so as to detect a motion vector for each of regions of each frame of an input signal. Accuracy of virtual samples is locally determined while the accuracy of virtual samples is associated with the size of each region which is a motion vector detection unit in which a motion vector is detected. Virtual samples having half-pixel accuracy are used for motion vector detection unit regions having a smaller size 8x8 MC, such as blocks of 8x4 size, blocks of 4x8 size, and blocks of 4x4 size, and virtual samples having 1/4-pixel accuracy are used for motion vector detection unit regions that are equal to or larger than 8x8 MC in size. As a result, in each of 8×4, 4x8, and 4x4 MC modes, the memory bandwidth required for generating virtual samples can be reduced and both the image coding apparatus and the image decoding apparatus can be simplified.

Abstract: The methods, devices, and systems are provided for performing endovascular repair of atrioventricular and other cardiac valves in the heart. Regurgitation of an atrioventricular valve, particularly a mitral valve, can be repaired by modifying a tissue structure selected from the valve leaflets, the valve annulus, the valve chordae, and the papillary muscles. These structures may be modified by suturing, stapling, snaring, or shortening, using interventional tools (30, 36, 56) which are introduced to a heart chamber. Preferably, the tissue structures will be temporarily modified prior to permanent modification. For example, opposed valve leaflets may be temporarily grasped and held into position prior to permanent attachment.
