Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a water level measurement device and a shoreline extraction method each of which is capable of stably measuring the water level. A pixel selection unit (11) selects a pixel of interest (302) from a designated area (301) designated from a captured image (300), and an identification image extraction unit (12) extracts identification images (303), (304) each coming in contact with the pixel of interest (302). The identification unit (13) calculates an identification strength indicating a degree to which an area corresponding to each of the identification images (303), (304) is a water area, on a basis of the result of machine learning related to identification between the water area and a non-water area.

Abstract: An image feature map generating unit (3) generates, on the basis of feature amounts extracted from a plurality of images successively captured by a camera (109), an image feature map which is an estimated distribution of the object likelihood on each of the images. An object detecting unit (4) detects an object on the basis of the image feature map generated by the image feature map generating unit (3).

Abstract: In a high-efficiency encoder which performs motion-compensation prediction, an intra-field is set every n fields. The presence of a scene change is detected. When a scene change occurs, a reference picture of motion-compensation prediction is switched, or the field immediately after the scene change is set as an intra-field.

Abstract: An apparatus that, when reproducing video content that cannot be displayed normally, executes downconverted reproduction or notifies the user to avoid displeasing or upsetting the user, having a decoder block (13) that outputs a video signal reproduced from an optical disc to a video display apparatus (4), a display device authentication decision unit (22) that authenticates the video display apparatus (4) and decides whether to output the video signal as a digital video signal or after conversion to an analog video signal, a analog output decision unit (21) for determining play intervals, in the video signal recorded on the information recording medium, on which a restriction has been imposed by copyright protection processing on output after conversion to an analog video signal, and a system control unit (11) for controlling the decoder block (13) so as to output the video signal after performing a resolution-lowering conversion when reproducing a play interval on which the restriction has been determined t

Abstract: In a video disk recording/playback device for converting a digital video signal or the like into high-efficiency coded data and recording the coded data on a video disk, or for restoring high-efficiency coded data recorded on the video disk and reproducing an output image, wherein said digital video signal is composed of a succession of video signals of a plurality of frames and including an I picture encoded within a frame, a P picture interframe coded by forward motion compensation with reference to said I picture and/or another P picture, and a B picture interframe coded by motion compensation in both directions with reference to said I and/or P pictures temporally preceding and succeeding the B picture, there are further provided a means for recording in an image information table set up on said video disk all of the start addresses of coded data representing selected images such as images to be retrieved and the start addresses of data containing information required for reproducing the coded data.

Abstract: A digital video signal record and playback device for recording on a recording medium a digital video signal coded by using a motion compensation prediction and an orthogonal transform and playing back data from the recording medium. In a data arrangement of a digital video signal, an I picture which can be independently represented in a picture is divided into n areas in the vertical direction, and the data is arranged from the front of one GOP in the unit of area by giving a priority to an area located at the center of the screen. A playback picture is outputted by playing back the I picture read from the recording medium in the unit of area unit. In the case where the whole I picture area cannot be read within a definite time, the area which cannot be read are interpolated by the use of the data of the preceding screen.
