A method and apparatus for image data compression includes detecting a portion of an image signal that uses a disproportionate amount of bandwidth compared to other portions of the image signal. The detected portion of the image signal result in determined components of interest. Relative to certain variance, the method and apparatus normalize the determined components of interest to generate an intermediate form of the components of interest. The intermediate form represents the components of interest reduced in complexity by the certain variance and enables a compressed form of the image signal where the determined components of interest maintain saliency. In one embodiment, the video signal is a sequence of video frames. The step of detecting includes any of: (i) analyzing image gradients across one or more frames where image gradient is a first derivative model and gradient flow is a second derivative, (ii) integrating finite differences of pels temporally or spatially to form a derivative model, (iii) analyzing an illumination field across one or more frames, and (iv) predictive analysis, to determine bandwidth consumption. The determined bandwidth consumption is then used to determine the components of interest.

A method and apparatus for transforming regular expressions into a less resource intensive representation is disclosed. The method and apparatus converts a collection of regular expressions into a multi-level representation in which the memory requirements of the lowest level representation is reduced when compared with a conventional finite state automaton representation. The method and apparatus converts a collection of regular expressions into a collection of segments and a higher level representation in a way that retains the semantics of the original set of regular expressions. This transformation is performed through the use of an intermediate form. The resulting representation and collection admit an implementation which avoids the potentially costly memory requirements of a traditional implementation of the original expressions.

A JavaScript program may be represented in an intermediate form to be executed by a JavaScript interpreter. A browser may be configured to intercept JavaScript code and pass execution control to a Java-based interpreter engine. The instructions are converted by a representation generator component of the engine into an intermediate representation equivalent using the Java programming language. The representation scheme may be suitable for execution by a stack-machine implemented interpreter. The representation scheme may use Java classes and objects, and create logical commands representing the JavaScript program. The intermediate representation may be stored as Java objects in a stack data structure. The stack data structure may be constructed from an array of elements, where each element is either an operator or an operand, and where each element derives from an abstract Java class with generic functionality and each element contains data relating to the operator or data type it represents.
