  • Patent number: 8787461
    Abstract: A high-performance block-matching VLSI architecture with low memory bandwidth for power-efficient multimedia devices is disclosed. The architecture uses several current blocks with the same spatial address in different current frames to search the best matched blocks in the search window of the reference frame based on the best matching algorithm (BMA) to implement the process of motion estimation in video coding. The scheme of the architecture using several current blocks for one search window greatly increases data reuse, accelerates the process of motion estimation, and reduces the data bandwidth and the power consumption.

  • Publication number: 20130266079
    Abstract: A method for assisting in video compression using rotation operation and an image capturing device thereof are provided. In the method, a rotation operation of the image capturing device is detected, and a rotation angle formed by the rotation operation is calculated. The image capturing device is rotated by the rotation angle so as to capture a current frame. In addition, whether a reference frame having a rotation angle information exists in a reference frame list stored in the image capturing device is determined. If not, a rotational motion vector is calculated based on the rotation angle. The current frame is divided into a plurality of current blocks. Among each of the current blocks, a matching block corresponding to the current block is searched in a reference frame of the reference frame list by using the rotational motion vector, and accordingly, the frame data of the current frame is compressed.

  • Patent number: 8490192
    Abstract: A method and a system for cleaning malicious software (malware), a computer program product, and a storage medium are provided. A relation graph is established to associate processes in an operating system and related elements. A node marking action is performed on the relation graph when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The node corresponding to a malicious process and its related nodes are marked with a first label. The nodes of other normal processes and their related nodes are marked with a second label. Then, those nodes marked with both the first label and the second label are screened, so that each of the nodes is marked with only the first label or the second label. Finally, the processes and elements corresponding to the nodes marked with the first label are removed.

    Abstract: A method for assisting video compression by using a touch screen and a monitoring system are provided. The monitoring system comprises a touch screen and at least one image capturing apparatus. Each image capturing apparatus captures a reference frame. A touch operation performed on the touch screen is detected and a motion vector thereof is computed. The image capturing apparatus is moved according to the motion vector to capture a current frame. The reference frame is divided into reference blocks, and a current block in the current frame corresponding to each reference block is searched according to the motion vector. A difference between each reference block and corresponding current block is compared to determine whether to use the motion vector of the touch operation as the motion vector between the reference block and the current block, so as to compress frame data of the reference block and the current block.
