Abstract: A conductive composite material, a method of preparing the same, and a secondary battery including the same. The conductive composite material may increase the proportion of an active material when forming an electrode by chemically bonding a conductive material and a binder to each other. A method of preparing the conductive composite material comprises ionizing carbon-based particles in a predetermined polarity, ionizing PTFE particles in a polarity different from that of the carbon-based particles, and chemically bonding the ionized carbon-based particles and the ionized PTFE particles, which are ionized in different polarities, to each other.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an image encoding and decoding technique, and more particularly, to an image encoder and decoder using unidirectional prediction. The image encoder includes a dividing unit to divide a macro block into a plurality of sub-blocks, a unidirectional application determining unit to determine whether an identical prediction mode is applied to each of the plurality of sub-blocks, and a prediction mode determining unit to determine a prediction mode with respect to each of the plurality of sub-blocks based on a determined result of the unidirectional application determining unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for encoding and decoding an image by skip encoding. The image-encoding method by skip encoding, which performs intra-prediction, comprises: performing a filtering operation on the signal which is reconstructed prior to an encoding object signal in an encoding object image; using the filtered reconstructed signal to generate a prediction signal for the encoding object signal; setting the generated prediction signal as a reconstruction signal for the encoding object signal; and not encoding the residual signal which can be generated on the basis of the difference between the encoding object signal and the prediction signal, thereby performing skip encoding on the encoding object signal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a kitchen knife for trimming food ingredients in a kitchen or galley, and more particularly, relates to a self-standing hygienic safety kitchen knife which is adapted to be able to maintain a hygienic state when the knife is placed on a chopping board or sink, by ensuring that the knife blade portion is separated from the deck such that extraneous material does not stick to the knife blade for trimming the food ingredients and such that water on the knife blade falls towards a ground surface. The self standing hygiene kitchen knife of the present invention is a kitchen knife having a handle, wherein the handle is formed so as to have a circular cross section, and the centre of gravity of the handle is formed in the lower part of the handle in the knife-blade direction, and where the knife blade is concerned, the knife blade is constituted spaced a predetermined distance inwards from the outer surface of the handle.
