Abstract: L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés destinés à identifier rapidement des oeufs vivants dans une chaîne d'oeufs, de façon très précise. Une chaîne d'oeufs est mirée via un mireur et chaque oeuf miré est annoté comme étant soit vivant, non vivant, ou « incertain ». Les oeufs annotés comme étant non vivants ou incertains sont retirés de la chaîne. Chaque oeuf annoté comme étant incertain est « remiré » au niveau d'une station séparée via une procédure de mirage supplémentaire afin de déterminer de façon définitive si cet oeuf « incertain » est vivant ou non. Les oeufs incertains identifiés comme étant vivants via le processus de remirage sont remis dans la chaîne d'oeufs de sorte que la chaîne contienne uniquement des oeufs vivants. Les oeufs incertains déterminés comme étant non vivants via le processus de remirage sont retirés et soit jetés, soit utilisés à d'autres fins.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a zapping agent that receives a zap signal from a particular user, whereby a new channel is requested.  A zapping agent according to the invention caches, as a background task, the last-forwarded GoP of the new channel into memory, and upon receipt of the zap signal, resumes transmission from the first frame of that GoP onwards.  As soon as a new anchor frame is available for further forwarding, the zapping agent stops transmitting frames from the cache memory, and starts forwarding the real stream. This may result in a small mismatch (visual glitch).  Yet, by so doing, the decoder can start displaying moving pictures of the new channel faster, thereby improving the system latency and the user experience.  Such a zapping agent may form part of interalia an edge device, or a video server.

Abstract: A method of detecting and correcting an eye defect within an acquired digital image comprising a multiplicity of pixels indicative of color and forming various shapes within the image is disclosed. A probable size distribution of eye regions, if any, in the image is determined using image meta-data and human anthropometric data, the meta-data including information describing conditions under which the image was acquired. A candidate eye region in the image is detected and whether it falls within the size distribution is determined. In respect of a candidate eye region falling within the size distribution, the anthropometric data is used to search for the presence of at least one of a second eye, lips, nostrils and surrounding face. If the search is successful, a probability that the candidate eye defect region is an actual eye region is increased. The candidate eye region is confirmed as an actual eye region if the probability is above a certain threshold. If the confirmed eye region has a color representative of a red-eye defect, the red-eye defect is corrected.
