  • Patent number: 12212741
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for setting a reference picture index of a temporal merging candidate. An inter-picture prediction method using a temporal merging candidate can include the steps of: determining a reference picture index for a current block; and inducing a temporal merging candidate block of the current block and calculating a temporal merging candidate from the temporal merging candidate block, wherein the reference picture index of the temporal merging candidate can be calculated regardless of whether a block other than the current block is decoded. Accordingly, a video processing speed can be increased and video processing complexity can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20240229274
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of removing lead materials from an anode for manufacturing copper foil to regenerate the anode. The method includes cleaning solution preparation, anode cleaning and anode washing. The cleaning solution preparation includes preparing a cleaning solution containing an aqueous solution of EDTA and citric acid. The cleaning solution used to perform the anode cleaning has a pH of 7 to 9 and a temperature of 20 to 50° C. The anode cleaning includes cleaning the anode by immersing the anode including the lead materials attached to the surface thereof in the cleaning solution to perform EDTA-Pb chelation. As a result, the transfer of the lead materials from the anode to the cleaning solution means substantial removal of the lead materials from the anode. The anode, from which the lead materials have been removed, is washed using a high-pressure washer.
