Abstract: Judder artifacts are remedied in video coding system by employing frame rate conversion at an encoder. A source video sequence may be coded as base layer coded video at a first frame rate. An encoder may identify a portion of the coded video sequence that likely will exhibit judder effects when decoded. For those portions that likely will exhibit judder effects, video data representing the portion of the source video may be coded at a higher frame rate than a frame rate of the coded base layer data as enhancement layer data. Moreover, an encoder may generate metadata representing “FRC hints”—techniques that a decoder should employ when performing decoder-side frame rate conversion. An encoding terminal may transmit the base layer coded video and either the enhancement layer coded video or the FRC hints to a decoder. Thus, encoder infrastructure may mitigate against judder artifacts that may arise during decoding.

Abstract: Multiple data sources encrypt data using encryption key data received from a first system; a second system does not have access to the encryption key data. The second system receives the encrypted data from the multiple data sources. Because the encryption is additively homomorphic, the second system may create encrypted summation data using the encrypted data. The second system may send the encrypted summation data to the first system, which may then decrypt the encrypted summation data to create unencrypted summation data.

Abstract: A first system creates and sends encryption key data to multiple data sources. A second system receives data encrypted using the encryption key data from the multiple data sources; the data may include noise data such that, even if decrypted, the original data cannot be discovered. Because the encryption is additively homomorphic, the second system may create encrypted summation data using the encrypted data. The first system separately receives the noise data encrypted using the same technique as the encrypted data. The second system may send the encrypted summation data to the first system, which may then remove the noise data from the encrypted summation data to create unencrypted summation data.
