Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes: a segmentation process section which performs a segmentation process on the image data; and a spatial filter section which performs first image processing that varies according to a result of the segmentation process. When a degree of downsampling in the downsampling process is not higher than a predetermined reference level, the spatial filter section performing the first image processing on the image data; and when the degree of downsampling in the downsampling process is higher than the predetermined reference level, the spatial filter section performs second image processing irrelevant to the result of the segmentation process, instead of performing the first image processing, on the image data. This brings about an advantage of making it possible to suppress deterioration in quality of an image whose preview is displayed.

Abstract: Each pixel region of an active matrix substrate includes a thin-film transistor, an interlayer insulating layer that includes an organic insulating layer, a transparent connection layer formed on the interlayer insulating layer, an inorganic insulating layer formed on the transparent connection layer, and a pixel electrode formed on the inorganic insulating layer. The transparent connection layer contacts a drain electrode inside of a first contact hole formed in the interlayer insulating layer. The pixel electrode contacts the transparent connection layer inside of a second contact hole formed in the inorganic insulating layer. The first contact hole and the second contact hole do not overlap with one another when a substrate is viewed from a normal direction. Inside the first contact hole, a bottom surface and sidewalls of the first contact hole are covered by the transparent connection layer, the inorganic insulating layer, and the pixel electrode.
Abstract: A light-emitting apparatus of the present invention has (i) a semiconductor device which emits light toward a higher position than a substrate and (ii) a plurality of external connection terminals, and includes: a light-reflecting layer, provided on the substrate, which reflects the light emitted by the semiconductor device; and a covering layer which covers at least the light-reflecting layer and which transmits the light reflected by the light-reflecting layer. Further, the semiconductor device is provided on the covering layer, and is electrically connected to the external connection terminals via connecting portions, and the semiconductor device and the connecting portions are sealed with a sealing resin so as to be covered. Therefore, the light-emitting apparatus has increased efficiency with which light is taken out, and can prevent a reflecting layer from being altered, deteriorating, and decreasing in reflectance.

Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including a first display region and a second display region and boundary correction circuits that perform tone correction on display data in such a manner that a correction amount for the display data to be written to a first pixel adjacent to a boundary between the first display region and the second display region and a correction amount for the display data to be written to a second pixel not adjacent to the boundary are different from each other.
Abstract: The present invention provides CRZ1 mutant fungal host cells, such as Pichia pastoris. The mutant fungal host cells exhibit temperature-resistance, enhanced fermentation robustness and increased expression of heterologous polypeptides such as immunoglobulins. Methods for producing heterologous polypeptides, such as immunoglobulins, using such mutant fungal host cells are within the scope of the present invention.
Abstract: A cascode circuit (1) is provided with a switching element (Q1) which is normally off by default, a switching element (Q2) and a clamp circuit (10). A source of the switching element (Q2) is connected to a drain of the switching element (Q1). The cascode circuit (1) engages in a normally-off operation through a gate driving circuit (100) connected to a gate of the switching element (Q1). The clamp circuit (10) is provided between a power source terminal (P) of the gate driving circuit (100) and the drain of the switching element (Q1). A power source (E) is connected to the power source terminal (P). When the gate driving circuit (100) operates to turn off the switching element (Q1) and the switching element (Q2), the clamp circuit (10) clamps a voltage between the drain and the source of the switching element (Q1) to a power source voltage (V) supplied from the power source (E).

Abstract: When there are a plurality of rows with the same display content, a scanning order calculating portion (23) provided in a display control circuit (200) determines addresses sequentially such that scanning signal lines corresponding to the rows are selected at the same time. A scanning order setting portion (24) controls an address output portion (26) such that the scanning signal lines are selected in such an order, and also controls digital image signals DV outputted by output frame memory (22). In this case, the number of changes in potential for video signal lines can be reduced by the number of rows selected at the same time, resulting in reduced power consumption for driving the video signal lines.

Abstract: A CQI control unit 401 inputs, to a subchannel selecting unit 402, subchannel estimation values for report bands which are based on control information received from a control information separating unit 221, at report timings based on the control information. The subchannel selecting unit 402 selects a predetermined number (M) of subchannels on the basis of the received subchannel estimation values, and inputs information indicating the selected subchannels and the qualities of the selected channels to a CQI constructing unit 403. Based on a predetermined format, the CQI constructing unit 403 constructs CQIs by using the qualities of the selected channels and the information indicating the selected channels, and inputs the CQIs to the coding unit 210. Here, as the channel quality, an average value of each of SNR, SINR, and CINR of subcarriers belonging to the subchannel is used.
