Patent number: 11924443Abstract: A method for coding a video sequence is provided that includes encoding a portion of a picture in the video sequence in lossless coding mode, and signaling a lossless coding indicator in a compressed bit stream, wherein the lossless coding indicator corresponds to the portion of a picture and indicates whether or not the portion of the picture is losslessly coded. A method for decoding a compressed video bit stream is provided that includes determining that lossless coding mode is enabled, decoding a lossless coding indicator from the compressed video bit stream, wherein the lossless coding indicator corresponds to a portion of a picture in the compressed video bit stream and indicates whether or not the portion of the picture is losslessly coded, and decoding the portion of the picture in lossless coding mode when the lossless coding indicator indicates the portion of the picture is losslessly coded.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventor: Minhua Zhou

Patent number: 11909988Abstract: Systems and methods for encoding a video stream at multiple bit rates is disclosed herein. An encoder divides each frame of a video stream into a plurality of portions and allocates an available number of bits between the plurality of portions based on user preference information. Portions having one or more objects of interest to the viewer determined based on the user preference information are allocated a higher number of available bits while portions of the frames that do not include one or more objects of interest are allocated a minimum number of bits from the available bits.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: ROVI GUIDES, INC.Inventors: Akshay Chetan Shah, Padmassri Chandrashekar

Patent number: 11812035Abstract: A method, computer program, and computer system is provided for aligning across layers in a coded video stream. A video bitstream having multiple layers is decoded. One or more subpicture regions are identified from among the multiple layers of the decoded video bitstream, the subpicture regions including a background region and one or more foreground subpicture regions. An enhanced subpicture is decoded and displayed based on a determination that a foreground subpicture region is selected. The background region is decoded and displayed based on a determination that a foreground subpicture region was not selected.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2022Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: TENCENT AMERICA LLCInventors: Byeongdoo Choi, Shan Liu, Stephan Wenger

Patent number: 11792353Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include receiving, with a processor of the first user device, a first image from a first camera, receiving, with the processor, a first live video stream from a network location, generating, with the processor, a live image in real time, by superimposing a portion of the first live video stream received from the network location on to the first image received from the first camera, and displaying, with the processor, the generated live image.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2020Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: Avaya Management L.P.Inventors: Fernanda Cristina Martinez Pupo de Oliveira, Daniel Makoto Iguchi, Ricardo Tavernaro Queiroz, Bernardo Coelho, Rosylene Gorski Damaceno Carbone

Patent number: 11423262Abstract: A method is provided for classifying objects. The method detects objects in one or more images. The method tags each object with multiple features. Each feature describes a specific object attribute and has a range of values to assist with a determination of an overall quality of the one or more images. The method specifies a set of training examples by classifying the overall quality of at least some of the objects as being of an acceptable quality or an unacceptable quality, based on a user's domain knowledge about an application program that takes the objects as inputs. The method constructs a plurality of first-level classifiers using the set of training examples. The method constructs a second-level classifier from outputs of the first-level automatic classifiers. The second-level classifier is for providing a classification for at least some of the objects of either the acceptable quality or the unacceptable quality.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2019Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Inventors: Biplob Debnath, Debayan Deb, Srimat Chakradhar

Patent number: 11115690Abstract: A method is provided for displaying an immersive video content according to eye movement of a viewer includes the steps of detecting, using an eye tracking device, a field of view of at least one eye of the viewer, transmitting eye tracking coordinates from the detected field of view to an eye tracking processor, identifying a region on a video display corresponding to the transmitted eye tracking processor, adapting the immersive video content from a video storage device at a first resolution for a first portion of the immersive video content and a second resolution for a second portion of the immersive video content, the first resolution being higher than the second resolution, displaying the first portion of the immersive video content on the video display within a zone, and displaying the second portion of the immersive video content on the video display outside of the zone.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2018Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Isaac Elliott, Steve Glennon

Patent number: 8189911Abstract: A method for assessing image quality between a reference image and an impaired image is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of subband decomposition of the luminance component of the reference image into N subbands, called reference subbands and of the luminance component of the impaired image into N subbands, called impaired subbands; errors computation from the reference subbands and from the impaired subbands; and pooling the computed the errors. The subband decomposition is based on a wavelet transform adapted to decompose each of the luminance components into L levels of decomposition, with L a positive integer determined as a function of the image height and of the distance of visualization.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2008Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Thomson LicensingInventors: Alexandre Ninassi, Olivier Le Meur, Patrick Le Callet, Dominique Barba
