Abstract: Method and apparatus for affine CPMV or ALF refinement are mentioned. According to this method, statistical data associated with the affine CPMV or ALF refinement are collected over a picture area. Updated parameters for the affine CPMV refinement or the ALF refinement are then derived based on the statistical data, where a process to derive the updated parameters includes performing multiplication using a reduced-precision multiplier for the statistical data. The reduced-precision multiplier truncates at least one bit of the mantissa part. In another embodiment, the process to derive the updated parameters includes performing reciprocal for the statistical data using a lookup table with (m?k)-bit input by truncating k bits from the m-bit mantissa part, and contents of the lookup table includes m-bit outputs. m and k are positive integers.

Abstract: A sensor includes a housing having a accommodating room, a flexible plate provided in the accommodating room and moveable to induce a medium pressure change in the accommodating room, and a pressure sensing component for sensing the pressure change. The pressure sensing component and the flexible plate are assembled and moveable together. In the sensor of the present invention, after an external signal to be sensed is transmitted to the sensor, the flexible plate moves to induce air disturbances, and then the pressure sensing component receives a pressure change induced by the air disturbances and performs signal sensing. Compared with the conventional sound sensor, the sensor of the present invention provides no opening communicating with the external environment. Therefore, the impact of foreign objects, noise and other environmental factors on the sensor can be avoided, and the signal generated by the object not to be sensed can be effectively reduced.
