  • Publication number: 20240092253
    Abstract: A method of personalizing a vehicle lamp includes drawing an image made up of a plurality of pixels that implement a vehicle lamp, based on an input by a user. The method also includes converting the drawn image into light-and-shade data that correspond to the pixels, respectively, multiplying a pixel light distribution value, corresponding to each pixel, by a weighted value based on the data resulting from the conversion, adding up results of the multiplication, and deriving total light distribution of the pixels that results when brightness of the vehicle lamp is the same as that of the drawn image. The method further includes comparing the derived total light distribution against a predetermined reference value and determining whether the derived total light distribution satisfies a predetermined light distribution reference, and applying the drawn image to the vehicle lamp when it is determined that a predetermined light distribution reference is satisfied.

  • Publication number: 20240078710
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, an apparatus and a storage medium for encoding/decoding using a transform-based feature map. An optimal basis vector is extracted from one or more feature maps, and a transform coefficient is acquired through a transform using the basis vector. The basis vector and the transform coefficient may be transmitted through a bitstream. In an embodiment, one or more feature maps are reconstructed using the basis vector and the transform coefficient, which are decoded from the bitstream.
