Abstract: The method involves applying heated viscous adhesive material on the surface of a transparent plastic film. The plastic film is passed over a rotating drum. The roughness of the one surface area of rotating drum is larger than the roughness of the other surface area. Some regions of the adhesive layer are imprinted based on the surface roughness of the corresponding regions of adhesive layer. The viscosity of the adhesive layer is increased, while cooling the adhesive layer so that adhesive material is solidified. An independent claim is included for apparatus for producing laminating film.

Abstract: Reframing is used to re-size an image or video content, e.g. for displaying video signals with a given aspect ratio on a display having a different aspect ratio. Window cropping parameters (position and size over time) are constrained in order to optimise the rate/ distortion of the encoded output video signal. Initial reframing is improved by computing a saliency map which considers the video coding context and by optionally providing a macroblock coding cost map and then taking the saliency map or a combined saliency/coding cost map into account so that the coding cost for said reframed video signal is smaller than the coding cost for another candidate reframing windows' sizes and positions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel electrochemical process with a view to producing a reaction gas having a molar mass lower than that of the starting component(s) in the form of a gas or vapor, according to which the gas or vapor of the starting component(s) is circulated and the reaction gas is recovered in the circulation path of the starting component(s). According to the invention, a least one vortex is created in a zone upstream of the reaction gas recovery zone, the vortex being capable of separating the product reaction gas from the starting component(s) still present in order to subject the latter to an electrochemical process in said upstream zone. The invention can be used for the electrolysis of water at high temperatures according to which the hydrogen produced is separated from the surplus water vapor using the vortex in order to subject the latter to electrolysis within the electrolyzer.
