  • Patent number: 9105277
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an equalizer is configured to obtain a noise included in a first correction signal by using a noise component of a first track and a noise interference component from a second track. The equalizer is configured to correct the first correction signal by using the obtained noise. The equalizer is configured to equalize the corrected first correction signal. The noise component of the first track is calculated based on a noise component of the first track at a first timing and a noise component of the first track at a second timing earlier than the first timing. The noise interference component from the second track is calculated based on a noise interference component from the second track at the first timing and a noise interference component from the second track at the second timing. The decoder is configured to decode the equalized first correction signal.

  • Publication number: 20150130809
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprising an image selecting portion configured to select an image to be displayed having a resolution determined based on a change speed of a display area, such as a movement, enlargement, reduction, a rotation or a change of focus position of the display area. Preferably when the display area stands still or is moved at low speed the high resolution image is displayed, and the low resolution is displayed when the change speed of the display area is fast. The apparatus relates particularly to an image observed with a microscope, and allows an image to be displayed without delay thereby facilitating diagnosis.
