Abstract: A processing module, or connector, adapts an output of a codec, or a decoded output, to a form suitable for an alternate task. In one embodiment, the output of a codec is used for a machine task and the connector adapts this output to a form suitable for a video display. In another embodiment, metadata accompanies the codec output, which can instruct the connector how to adapt the codec output for an alternate task. In other embodiments, the processing module performs averaging over a N×M window, or convolution.

Abstract: A system for converting image data from standard dynamic range (SDR) format to a high dynamic range (HDR) format involves partitioning input data representing a SDR image into a plurality of portions of data, wherein each portion represents a respective one of a plurality of SDR patches of the SDR image and each of the plurality of SDR patches covers a portion of the SDR image and the set of the plurality of SDR patches fully covers the SDR image; processing each of the plurality of SDR patches through a deep learning autoencoder responsive to a plurality of model weights representing a model of SDR to HDR conversion to produce a respective plurality of estimated HDR patches; and stitching the estimated HDR patches together to form a HDR image version of the SDR image.

Abstract: A point of sale computer system that allows a customer to select and consummate a sale himself. The system may include graphics storage media configured to store two- and three-dimensional graphics data relating to the sale, as well as business rules storage media, configured to store business rules that specify the graphics that should be displayed during the selection and consummation process based on input received from the customer. The technology allows a presentation to be made to the customer that is entertaining and that maintains the attention of the customer throughout the sale selection and consummation process.
