  • Patent number: 11985346
    Abstract: An example device for encoding high dynamic range (HDR) video data includes a memory configured to store video data; and one or more processors implemented in circuitry and configured to: calculate a histogram for an image of the video data, the image being expressed in a linear light format; encode values for the histogram of the image expressed in the linear light format; and encode the image. Data for the histogram may be expressed in an array of variables having a size of 210×18 bits. The device may encode codewords representing values for bins of the histogram, where the codewords may be selected from a set of codewords for a PQ10 format for HDR images. The bins of the histogram may represent non-equal width ranges.

  • Publication number: 20240107023
    Abstract: A method of encoding video data includes determining an integer sample in a reference picture of the video data; determining, based on the integer sample, at least a first fractional sample and a second fractional sample, wherein the first fractional sample has a first fractional pel resolution, and the second fractional sample has a second fractional pel resolution different from the first fractional pel resolution; subsequent to determining both the first fractional sample and the second fractional sample, determining a first cost metric associated with the first fractional sample and a second cost metric associated with the second fractional sample; determining a reference block for a current block based on at least one of the first cost metric or the second cost metric; and encoding the current block based on the reference block.

  • Publication number: 20090110602
    Abstract: A fluid reactor having a thin film with two-dimensionally distributed micro-resistor units includes one flow way, separating ribs, a thin film which is thinner than 100 micrometer, and a catalytic layer. There are multiple micro-resistor units, which is thinner than 60 micrometer each, set on the thin film. A bi-directional control unit is disposed to control these multiple micro-resistor units to shift to a desired mode selected from detecting electrical resistance, voltage, current, temperature, flow speed, and/or heat-up functions at different time. It can be applied to different kinds of fuel cells with different flow-way patterns. Its micro-resistor units have bi-directional functions. It can detect flow speed at a desired location in the flow way. It would not influence its original flow field and structure. Plus, it is easy to be installed.
