Abstract: A method for encoding a video is provided, wherein encoding the video comprises classifying samples of a first picture, determining, for at least one part of the first picture, a first filter based on said classification, said first filter being used for a first encoding operation of the first picture or of a second picture, determining a second filter based on said classification, said second filter being used for a second encoding operation of the first picture or of the second picture. An apparatus for encoding a video, decoding method and apparatus are also provided.

Abstract: A limited-slip differential system including a housing, a differential carrier disposed within the housing and including first and second carrier portions, a differential, a clutch pack and a pressure system is disclosed. The differential is configured to distribute torque from a drive shaft to first and second axles in accordance with a speed difference between the first and second axles. The pressure system is configured to selectively exert an axial force on the clutch pack, which includes first and second plurality of clutch plates respectively connected to one of the first and second carrier portions and a hub member, for selectively causing frictional engagement of the clutch plates. At least one of the first and second carrier portions at least partially defines at least one lubrication channel extending radially, and fluidly connecting an exterior of the differential carrier to an interior thereof for lubricating at least two clutch plates.

Abstract: A sensor includes an inner channel with: a first portion; a second portion in communication with the first portion; a storage zone in communication with the first portion; a baffle plate extending inside the first portion; the first portion and the baffle plate being sized such that, in an air stream entering the sensor through a first, open end of the first portion and containing first particles with a diameter of 10 ?m or less and second particles with a diameter of more than 10 ?m, the first particles reach the second portion of the inner channel while the second particles reach the storage zone.
