An input image signal 101 is divided into MC block units and, when coding processing is performed in these divided units, a motion compensation section 107 generates a motion-compensated prediction image 106a by detecting movement amounts in predetermined MC block units, a smoothing filter section 124 performs, with respect to the prediction image 106a, smoothing of pixels located at the boundaries of adjoining MC blocks on the basis of predetermined evaluation criteria, and a prediction residual signal 108, which is obtained from the difference between the prediction image 106b obtained by the smoothing, and the input image (input image signal 101), is encoded. Accordingly, it is possible to use relatively straightforward computation to perform processing, with respect to a prediction frame image generated by block-unit motion-compensated interframe prediction (MC), to adaptively smooth a discontinuous waveform generated between MC blocks of the prediction frame image, whereby the efficiency of low bit rate coding that employs interframe MC is improved.

Light-splitting elements are arranged in at least two columns and two rows to form two pairs 1a, 1b and 1c, 1d. Each element splits incident light into light rays and makes them fall on a portion of a photosensing section right under itself and an adjacent photosensitive cell. The element 1a splits the incident light so that a primary color ray C1 and its complementary color ray C1′ enter an adjacent cell 2b and an underlying cell 2a, respectively. The element 1b makes a primary color ray C2 and its complementary color ray C2′ enter an underlying cell 2a and an adjacent cell 2a, respectively. The element 1c does the same as the element 1b. And the element 1d makes a primary color ray C3 and its complementary color ray C3′ enter an adjacent cell 2c and an underlying cell 2d, respectively. These photosensitive cells 2 perform photoelectric conversion, thereby outputting an electrical signal representing the intensity of the incident light. By carrying out simple calculations between the outputs of these cells, a color signal and a luminance signal are generated.

A method for quickly measuring the radon exhalation rate in a closed-loop manner comprises a measurement process and a computation process. During the measurement process, a long time interval is adopted, that is, measurement is conducted once for every 5-120 min, and once measurement is a period. Through the adoption of measured data in two periods, an accurate radon exhalation rate can be obtained quickly through a simple computational method; during the measurement process, the two measurement periods are equal. A radon meter adopting the frequently-used electrostatic collection method actually measures the concentration of <218>Po and is obvious in measurement delay. When the radon meter adopting the frequently-used electrostatic collection method measures a variable radon concentration in a tracking manner, a measured value has to be corrected; through the correction on the measured value, an accurate radon exhalation rate can be obtained quickly.

This invention is a one-dimensional elementary motion detector that measures the linear optical flow in a small subsection of the visual field. This sensor measures motion by tracking the movement of a feature across the visual field and measuring the time required to move from one location to the next. First a one-dimensional image is sampled from the visual field using a linear photoreceptor array. Feature detectors, such as edge detectors, are created with simple circuitry that performs simple computations on photoreceptor outputs. The detection of the feature's location is performed using a winner-take-all (WTA) mechanism on feature detector outputs. Motion detection is the performed by monitoring the location of the high WTA output in time to detect transitions corresponding to motion. The correspondence problem is solved by ignoring transitions to and from the end lines of the WTA output bus. Speed measurement is performed by measuring the time between WTA output transitions. This invention operates in a one-dimensional subspace of the two-dimensional visual field. The conversion of a two-dimensional image section to a one-dimensional image is performed by a specially shaped photoreceptor array which preserves image information in one direction but filters out image information in the perpendicular direction. Thus this sensor measures the projection of the 2-D optical flow vector onto the vector representing the sensor's orientation. By placing several of these sensors in different orientations and using vector arithmetic, the 2-D optical flow vector can be determined.

The invention provides an equal-loudness contour-based loudness compensation method, which comprises the following steps of: regulating a volume of an input signal, measuring sound pressure levels corresponding to all available volume values, and in each sound pressure level, filtering an input signal by using a preset frequency filter, and multiplying by a weighting coefficient of the preset frequency filter to obtain a signal; and superposing the input signal in each sound pressure level in a plurality of sound pressure levels corresponding to all the available volume values and the signal obtained through filtering and weighting. The method overcomes the defect that when the conventional audio signal is small in volume, the loudness of partial frequency band is too low, and ears of a human body cannot feel the loudness, so that the heard sound is dry and tedious; by the method, the loudness of input signals of partial frequency band is compensated, the sound is loud and full and meets the requirement of people on acoustic comfort; moreover, a sound level meter and the filter and simple computation are only required to realize the loudness compensation of the audio signal, so that the structure is simple and the cost is low.

By a simple computation, orthogonal errors from an orthogonal modulator and an orthogonal demodulator are separately corrected. Based on the amplitude of a demodulated signal, an orthogonal-error detection unit (320) detects orthogonal errors from an orthogonal modulation unit (140) and an orthogonal demodulation unit (230). Specifically, according to the distribution of transmission signal points on an I-Q plane, demultiplexers (321 and 322) in an orthogonal-error detection unit (320) separate a demodulated signal into a signal on the I-axis and a signal on the Q-axis. Zero-crossing detection units (325 and 326) detect the amplitudes of the separated signals at the intersection of the I- and Q-axes. The orthogonal-error detection unit (320) detects the orthogonal errors based on results from comparing the amplitudes at said intersection. A gain control unit (330) controls settings for a transmission orthogonal-error correction unit (120) and reception orthogonal-error correction unit (250) according to the detected orthogonal errors.

The present invention is directed to improving the accuracy with which a stationary array sensor provides cross directional measurements by providing an offset compensation to the stationary array sensor using the output of a scanning sensor associated with the manufacturing process. Exemplary embodiments correlate outputs from the stationary sensor array and the scanning array using a data reconciliation process. For example, a practical, real time data reconciliation of measurements from the scanning sensor and measurements from the stationary array sensor is achieved by computing offsets using a bank of Kalman filters to correlate outputs from the two sensors for each measurement zone, wherein each filter possesses a relatively simple computational structure. The Kalman filters can fuse the outputs from the stationary array sensor and the scanning sensor to track, and compensate, drift of the stationary array sensor.
