Abstract: Disclosed is a recording apparatus including: a movement cycle determining section which receives moving image data including image contents of an object which performs a movement in which a movement state and a non-movement state are alternately and periodically repeated, and determines an operating period which corresponds to the movement state and a static period which corresponds to the non-movement state; and a recording control section which records the number of frame image data, per unit time, for forming the moving image data in the static period to be smaller than in the operating period, when the moving image data is recorded.

Abstract: JPEG encoded data are entropy-decoded to quantized DCT coefficients which are sent to a prediction tap extraction circuit (41) and to a class tap extraction circuit (42). The prediction tap extraction circuit (41) and the class tap extraction circuit (42) extract what is needed from the quantized DCT coefficients to form prediction taps and class taps. A classification circuit (43) effects classification based on the class taps. A coefficient table storage unit (44) sends tap coefficients corresponding to the classes resulting from the classification to a sum of products circuit (45), which sum of products circuit (45) then effects linear predictive calculations, using the tap coefficients and the class taps, to generate decoded picture data.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an interlace-progressive converter converting an interlace input image into a progressive intermediate image, a motion-vector detector detecting motion vectors of the input image by using a distance shorter than the pixel interval of the intermediate image, a cyclic-coefficient setting unit setting, on the basis of a vertical motion, a first cyclic coefficient for a first type of pixel and a second cyclic coefficient for a second type of pixel, a motion compensator motion-compensating, on the basis of the motion vectors, a past progressive output image to generate a motion-compensated image, and an output image generator generating a progressive output image by adding pixel values of the first type of pixels and the second type of pixels of the progressive intermediate image and the motion-compensated image by using the first cyclic coefficient and the second cyclic coefficient as weights.

Abstract: A zinc-cobalt alloy-plating alkaline bath comprises a zinc compound, a cobalt compound, an alkali hydroxide and a reaction product of an alkyleneamine with an alkylene oxide and having a pH of not less than 13 and a method for forming a zinc-cobalt alloy plating film comprises the step of forming, on a substrate, a zinc-cobalt alloy plating film having a cobalt content ranging from 0.05 to 20% by weight and a zinc content ranging from 80 to 99.95 % by weight, while using the foregoing alkaline plating bath. The Zn-Co alloy-plating bath permits the achievement of a desired rate of Co-eutectoid even when a small amount of a chelating agent is incorporated into the bath and therefore, the bath is excellent in the disposability of waste water.
