  • Publication number: 20080252916
    Abstract: A reproduction information method and device using a dot pattern is provided. The dot pattern includes: the boundary dots, three direction dots and the code dots. The boundary dots are disposed regularly and continuously to define the blocks. Three direction dots are disposed on centers of three of the blocks to define a direction vector. Each of the code dots is disposed on one of the blocks without the direction dots. The code vectors are defined by the centers of the blocks to the code dots. The information is reproduced by the code vectors and the direction vector.

  • Patent number: 7196641
    Abstract: A system for audio data processing including sub-systems for compression and for de-compression. The compression sub-system includes an AD converter, a segment-based multi-channel splitter splitting and segmenting signals into channels each with segments, multi-level 1D discrete wavelet transformers each discrete wavelet transforming for a respective channel each segment thereof in sequence and recursively through a predetermined number of filtering levels into wavelet coefficients, quantizers, a multiplexer multiplexing quantized wavelet coefficients into 2-D arrays, and an embedded block coder coding the 2-D arrays into code blocks, discarding some of the code blocks, truncating a bit stream embedded in each remaining code block, and stringing the truncated bit stream embedded in each remaining code block into a compressed data stream. Another compression sub-system includes a non-segment-based multi-channel splitter, and a plurality groups of 1D discrete wavelet transformers.

  • Patent number: 7076108
    Abstract: The inventions provides a method for compressing image data comprising the steps of: performing a color transformation of the data; wavelet-transforming the color-transformed data via division and multiplication operations being substituted with six lookup tables in order to provide a series of wavelet coefficients in different levels of wavelet transformation subbands; quantizing in accordance with a special equation the wavelet coefficients which fall above a predetermined threshold value to provide a series of quantized wavelet coefficients; applying an entropy coding to the quantized wavelet coefficients with a particular Huffman table; and compressing the coded wavelet coefficients to provide compressed data.
