Patent AU-2112788-A (AU)
Title: Video signal compressive encoding/decoding method and apparatus
Inventor: KONDO TETSUJIRO
IPC: H04N1/41
Filed: 1988-08-19
Abstract: On a transmitting side, a digital video signal comprising respective pixel samples (each of which may include eight bits) is received, and a set of elementary pixel samples (o/ &cir& ) determined from the received pixel samples at a predetermined rate are transmitted. The values of respective subject pixel samples (o,  &squ& ,  DELTA , x) other than the elementary ones (o/ &cir& ) are predicted, and respective predictive errors ( epsilon ) of the predicted values are detected from present values of the received pixel samples. First flags are then generated individually for each subject pixel sample whose predictive error ( epsilon ) is greater than a threshold value (TH), and second flags are generated individually for each subject pixel sample whose predictive error is less than or equal to the threshold value. The present values of the subject pixel samples having the first flags are transmitted, and compressed data (including the second flags) is transmitted for the subject pixel samples having the second flags. On a receiving side, values of the subject pixel samples represented by the compressed data with the second flags are predicted, and the subject pixels are interpolated with pixel samples having present values equal to the predicted values. A decoded video signal, including the transmitted elementary pixel samples, the respective subject pixel samples having the first flags, and the respective interpolated subject pixel samples, is then outputted.

The elements are exposed to a sequence of different field distributions. The local field distribution of the biasing field over the gauge is continuously determined, and the mutual relationship between the elements is determined in dependence of the orientation of each element in the local field distribution by comparing actual properties of the elements influenced by the magnetic field, and expected properties of elements arranged in predetermined relationships to each other in the local field distribution. <IMAGE>

Title: Dna constructs and plants incorporating them
Inventor: ELY SUSAN
IPC: C12R1/07
Filed: 1989-08-02
Abstract: The gene promoter which drives expression of the chlorophyll antibody (CAB) protein in the green tissue of plants has been isolated and sequenced enabling use of the promoter, by recombinant DNA techniques, for green tissue specific expression of an exogenous gene by transformation of a plant with the a recombinant DNA in which the CAB promoter is fused to the exogenous gene. Particularly useful applications of the CAB promoter are in the expression of insecticidal toxins, such as a  delta -endotoxin of Bacillus thuringiensis, to provide protection of the plant from predation by insects which attack the green tissue, and in the expression of mRNA which is anti sense to mRNA expressed by an endogenous gene so as to suppress translation of the endogenous mRNA to protein.

Title: Navigation system
Inventor: UPPARAPALLI KARUNANIDHI
IPC: G08G1/0968
Filed: 1999-06-04
Abstract: A route exclusion list system permits the user to designate certain roads or areas that a navigation system should avoid when planning a route between a beginning point and a destination point. The route exclusion list system generally includes a database of road segments and a cost associated with the road segments, such as estimated time of travel across that road segment or estimated length of travel across that road segment. A display displays a map having a plurality of the road segments. A user input device permits a user to encircle and select displayed road segments. The cost associated with each selected road segment is increased thereby making it unlikely that the navigation system will use any of the selected road segments when determining a route between the beginning point and the destination point. The system can be operated independently of the navigation system and the increase in cost for each road segment can be associated with a specific period of time.
