Patent number: 9141874Abstract: An image of real world is processed to identify blocks as candidates to be recognized. Each block is subdivided into sub-blocks, and each sub-block is traversed to obtain counts, in a group for each sub-block. Each count in the group is either of presence of transitions between intensity values of pixels or of absence of transition between intensity values of pixels. Hence, each pixel in a sub-block contributes to at least one of the counts in each group. The counts in a group for a sub-block are normalized, based at least on a total number of pixels in the sub-block. Vector(s) for each sub-block including such normalized counts may be compared with multiple predetermined vectors of corresponding symbols in a set, using any metric of divergence between probability density functions (e.g. Jensen-Shannon divergence metric). Whichever symbol has a predetermined vector that most closely matches the vector(s) is identified and stored.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2013Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Raj Kumar Krishna Kumar, Pawan Kumar Baheti, Dhananjay Ashok Gore

Patent number: 9053361Abstract: In several aspects of described embodiments, an electronic device and method use a camera to capture an image or a frame of video of an environment outside the electronic device followed by identification of blocks of regions in the image. Each block that contains a region is checked, as to whether a test for presence of a line of pixels is met. When the test is met for a block, that block is identified as pixel-line-present. Pixel-line-present blocks are used to identify blocks that are adjacent. One or more adjacent block(s) may be merged with a pixel-line-present block when one or more rules are found to be satisfied, resulting in a merged block. The merged block is then subject to the above-described test, to verify presence of a line of pixels therein, and when the test is satisfied the merged block is processed normally, e.g. classified as text or non-text.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2013Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Pawan Kumar Baheti, Dhananjay Ashok Gore, Hyung-Il Koo, Te-Won Lee

Patent number: 8874027Abstract: A method for controlling gain in a wireless repeater implementing echo cancellation determines a signal-to-interference-noise-ratio (SINR) of the input and output signals of the repeater and adjusts the gain of the repeater to optimize an achievable data rate and a coverage area of the repeater. The repeater gain may be decreased to increase the data rate and increase the achievable SINR of the output signal while the coverage area is reduced. Alternately, the repeater gain may be increased to decrease the data rate and decrease the achievable SINR of the output signal while the coverage area is increased.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2010Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Dhananjay Ashok Gore, Gwendolyn Denise Barriac, Sanjiv Nanda

Patent number: 8867987Abstract: A method for computing a gain control metric used in controlling gain in a wireless repeater operates to store correlation and normalization values associated with the gain control metric for the previous N samples in registers. For each new sample of the gain control input signal, the correlation and normalization values are computed by discarding the multiplication terms of the obsolete sample and adding the multiplication terms of the new sample to the stored correlation and normalization values. In this manner, the complexity of the computation is greatly reduced and the complexity of the computation does not increase with the integration length.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2010Date of Patent: October 21, 2014Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Michael Mao Wang, Dhananjay Ashok Gore, Tadeusz Jarosinski

Patent number: 8831381Abstract: An electronic device and method use a camera to capture an image of an environment outside the electronic device followed by identification of regions, based on pixel intensities in the image. At least one processor automatically computes multiple values of an indicator of skew in multiple regions in the image respectively. The multiple values are specific to the multiple regions, and thereafter used to determine whether unacceptable skew is present across the regions, e.g. globally in the image as a whole. When skew is determined to be unacceptable, user input is requested to correct the skew, e.g. by displaying on a screen, a symbol and receiving user input (e.g. by rotating an area of touch or rotating the electronic device) to align a direction of the symbol with a direction of the image, and then the process may repeat (e.g. capture image, detect skew, and if necessary request user input).Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2013Date of Patent: September 9, 2014Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Pawan Kumar Baheti, Ankit Agarwal, Dhananjay Ashok Gore
