Title: Methods and devices for encoding and decoding transform domain filters
Inventor: WANG JING
IPC: H04N7/50
Filed: 2012-11-20
Abstract: Methods and devices for encoding and decoding data using transform domain filtering are described. The encoder determines a set of transform domain filter coefficients to be applied to a transform domain prediction. The filtering may, in some cases, also apply to transform domain reconstructions. Rate-distortion optimization may be used to determine the optimal filter coefficients on a frame-basis, coding-unit-basis, or other basis. Multiple filters may be developed and communicated from the encoder to the decoder for different combinations of transform block size, coding mode, prediction mode, and texture type. In other cases, the filtering is applied in the pixel-domain to a pixel-domain prediction or a pixel-domain reconstruction of a block of samples.

Title: The "sweep'n'bag" dust bagger
Inventor: O'NEILL SEAN JOSEPH
IPC: A47L13/50
Filed: 2013-01-21
Abstract: The "Sweep 'N' Bag" Dust Bagger is a product that adds a revolutionary edge on floor debris clean-up. It resembles the likes of a poled "stand-up" dust pan with totally unique features that puts it in a class of its own. With a backless "dust-pan-like"  chute, it allows floor debris to be swept into an everyday grocery bag or eco-bag. This design allows an excess amount of debris to be collected in a easy and simple fashion. The bag is secured by a specially designed chassis which holds the bag open, which attaches to the chute which has a feature that holds the bags' handles in order to complete its total function. With the bag wide open, "dust trailing" is cut down to a minimal due to enclosure of the bag, plus the bonus of collecting up to 100x's or more debris than a conventional dust pan without walking to and from a disposal unit. When the bag is full, it only takes mere seconds for the handler to remove it, tie up the bag and secure its contents and then dispose of the bag.
