Nari Tanabe has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8532422
    Abstract: A simple and practical image restoring device capable of improving the performance of image restoration. An image restoring device (100) is provided with a first restoration processing unit (160a) and estimates original image information from the degraded image information into which information unnecessary for the original image information is incorporated. A correlation calculating section (164) calculates the correlation value of the estimation error of when the state amount of a system at time n+1 including the original image information is estimated by information up to time n or the time n+1 with respect to the degraded image information of only the time n.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 6, 2009
    Date of Patent: September 10, 2013
    Assignee: Tokyo University of Science Educational Foundation Administration Organization
    Inventors: Nari Tanabe, Toshihiro Furukawa, Shunichi Kitahara
  • Patent number: 8527266
    Abstract: Disclosed is a noise suppression device capable of better noise suppression by means of a simpler structure and with a lighter computational load. A noise suppression device (100) has a noise suppression processor (150) to estimate the required information only from the observed information, which is the required information corrupted by noise. A correlator (154) calculates the correlation of the estimation error when the state quantity, which contains the required information, of the system at time n+1 was estimated from the information until time n or time n+1 for the observed information at only time n.
