Abstract: A method and apparatus for intra-prediction coding of video data are provided. The apparatus includes a decoder that is configured to decode, from a bitstream, a syntax element indicating an intra-prediction type of a current block of the video data, and an intra-predictor that is configured to generate a prediction block for the current block by selectively performing matrix based intra-prediction or regular intra-prediction based on the intra-prediction type of the current block indicated by the syntax element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an induction heating apparatus. In order to cope with various types of containers without increasing an operating frequency of an induction heating apparatus, the present invention compares a resistance value of a container with a predetermined reference resistance value, and determines an operating mode of a switching device according to a result of the comparison. According to the present invention, it is possible to use various types of containers without increasing an operating frequency of an induction heating apparatus, by adjusting a resonance frequency of a working coil according to a resistance value of a container used in the induction heating apparatus.

Abstract: A Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor starting method and device are provided, in which startup noise and vibration and startup failure rate can be reduced using a constant low-speed startup scheme when the BLDC motor is in sensorless startup mode, and PWM duty is also maintained at low level when the BLDC motor starts up, thereby preventing an excessive current from occurring due to desynchronization of the motor at startup, so that it is possible to optimize specifications of an inverter in the BLDC motor. The BLDC motor starts up with a startup speed and a PWM duty of a rotor of the BLDC motor being kept constant, and the BLDC motor switches to sensorless mode if a position of the rotor is detected a predetermined number of times or more during a specific time.
