  • Publication number: 20240119570
    Abstract: A method includes identifying, using at least one processing device of an electronic device, a spatially-variant point spread function associated with an under-display camera. The spatially-variant point spread function is based on an optical transmission model and a layout of a display associated with the under-display camera. The method also includes generating, using the at least one processing device, a ground truth image. The method further includes performing, using the at least one processing device, a convolution of the ground truth image based on the spatially-variant point spread function in order to generate a synthetic sensor image. The synthetic sensor image represents a simulated image captured by the under-display camera. In addition, the method includes providing, using the at least one processing device, the synthetic sensor image and the ground truth image as an image pair to train a machine learning model to perform under-display camera point spread function inversion.

  • Patent number: 8364569
    Abstract: A system includes a computer and an attached database. The database stores inflation, unemployment, budget deficit, and gross domestic product (GDP) data for a variety of time periods for at least one country. The computer determines standard deviations, over a first time period, of an unemployment rate, a ratio of budget deficit to GDP, a GDP rate, and absolute value of an inflation rate. The computer also determines weights for each of the unemployment rate, the ratio of budget deficit to GDP, the GDP rate, and the absolute value of the inflation rate according to the ratio of the average of the standard deviations to the unemployment rate, the ratio of budget deficit to GDP, the GDP rate, and the absolute value of the inflation rate. The computer determines an economic health score for at least a second time period, the second time period being shorter than the first time period.

  • Patent number: 6899298
    Abstract: An STOL aircraft structure has a variable-attitude, variable-area wing in addition to a traditional airfoil. The variable wing has an angle of attack that varies from 0° to a predetermined angle far in excess of the stall angle. The variable wing area can be adjusted from 0% to 100% by a roller furling arrangement. The aircraft structure operates during takeoff by deploying the variable wing with an attitude exceeding the stall angle, applying thrust to the aircraft so that the variable wing generates reaction lift and the aircraft attains a predetermined altitude, and stowing the variable wing so that the traditional airfoil is the primary lifting surface. Those steps are reversed for landing.

  • Patent number: 6577340
    Abstract: An apparatus for generating video signals from a photographic image previously recorded on film (a cine-video system) which includes a film transport mechanism for advancing or rewinding the film in order to position a film frame at a film gate for projection, an image projector which detects when a film frame is positioned at the film gate and projects an illuminated image of that frame, a video pickup system which receives the image and generates a video signal which represents it, and an output circuit which produces a resultant output video signal. A window generating capability provides for optional enhancement of the video signal within a user-selectable range of video signal values. One or more cursors may be superimposed on the video image, and measurements to determine the distance between two such cursors may be performed.

  • Patent number: 6255035
    Abstract: A process for forming T-shaped metal contacts on a dielectric substrate. The process includes deposition of first and second photoresist layers onto a substrate; individually overall electron beam exposure of both layers; with subsequent imagewise UV exposure and development of both layers to form hollow cavities in the layers. By concentrating the electron beam radiation on the mid-point in the thickness of each photoresist layer, the radiation is distributed throughout each layer, resulting in solubility properties which lead to the formation of hollow cavities of a certain desired shape. In one embodiment of the invention, three-dimensional structures are formed in the photoresist layers by filling the hollow cavities with metal. Subsequent removal of unwanted portions of the photoresist layers produces a dielectric substrate having T-shaped metal contacts on its surface.

  • Patent number: 5683053
    Abstract: Film transport apparatus for a cine-video system in which video signals are produced from film that is driven between supply and take-up reels. The film, which may be wound in A or B configuration on each reel, is threaded automatically about a film drive mechanism which transports the film from the supply reel, through a film gate to the take-up reel. Tensioning apparatus imparts tension to the film at the entry and exit of the film gate which, during the threading operation, causes the respective reels to rotate before film actually is transported therebetween. The direction in which each reel rotates to unwind film therefrom when tension is imparted serves to identify whether the film is wound in A or B configuration. Advantageously, a programmable processor controls the film transport speed in response to a user-actuated knob; and this same processor serves to detect when the film approaches its end on the supply or take-up reel.
