New spatio-spectral sampling paradigm for imaging and a novel color filter array design

One aspect of the present invention relates to a new alternative to the Bayer pattern for spatial subsampling in color imaging applications. One aspect of the present invention relates to a new design paradigm for spatio-spectral sampling, which is also described. The proposed scheme offers the potential to significantly reduce hardware complexity in a wide variety of applications, while at the same time improving output color image quality. According to another aspect, it is realized that conventional processing techniques are subject to diminishing returns, and with the exception of the most sophisticated processing techniques generate imperfections perceptible to a practiced eye. According to one aspect, a framework for CFA design in presented. In one embodiment the physical characteristics of the CFA are generated so that the spectral radii of luminance and chrominance channels are maximized. In another embodiment, the CFA designed to subject to the conditions of perfect reconstruction. In one aspect, the physical characteristics of CFA design are constrained to require physically realizable CFA(s). Alternatively, certain physical characteristics can be emphasized to generate easier to manufacture CFA(s). According to another aspect, conventional methods and systems are evaluated, confirming shortcomings regarding aliasing in imaging and bandwidth, against which certain embodiments are benchmarked, showing improved performance under at least some embodiments of proposed designs and methods. According to another aspect, a display device CFA is evaluated in terms of throughput of stimuli as limited by aliasing. It is shown the spectral replicas of the chrominance signals induced by existing CFA patterns are centered around frequencies that are not sufficiently far from the DC, consequently overlapping with the luminance signal spectrum and reducing the throughput of the stimuli. By reinterpreting the interactions between the stimuli, display CFA, and CSF in terms of amplitude modulation, an alternative CFA coding scheme that modulates the chrominance signals to a higher frequency relative to common schemes is provided in some embodiments.

Method and software application which evaluates the position of a firm in the market

InactiveUS20080133316A1Increase competitionImprove featuresMarket predictionsOffice automationBaseline testingCompetitive pressure
The present invention provides a firm's diagnosis which evaluates the position of a product or single product firm in the market according to its strategy of differentiation. Based on an Integrated Innovation Model (IIM), a system of data recovery (for example, a questionnaire) allows making a diagnosis of firms. Based on the averages of each of three dimensions used in the model (competitive pressure, differentiation and outcome), it calculates the respective position in those dimensions. After this, the diagnostic provides firm's position in the four spaces of the IIM. The three dimensions of the model are divided into subdimensions, and then a comparison is made between each dimension and the respective subdimensions. Data recovery could be repeated for several firms and, with the storage of results, which can then be used for benchmarking by comparing a firm to the respective industry and also to the high performing firms in the industry. Software based on the model allows us to make not only the complete diagnostics of firms, but also to analyse the dynamics inherent to innovation and markets and serve as an educational framework. Both the model and the software solve a need not just in innovation consultancy but also as a pedagogical tool.
