  • Patent number: 11500243
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an LED assembly, a light source, and a liquid crystal display device. The LED assembly includes: a substrate; a plurality of blue LED chips which are disposed on the substrate at intervals and have different emission wavelengths; a white light phosphor layer which is disposed on the substrate and covers the plurality of blue LED chips; and a sealing frame which is disposed on the substrate and is configured to encapsulate the plurality of blue LED chips and the white light phosphor layer. The LED assembly encapsulates the blue LED chips having different emission wavelengths together, which can avoid LED mixing from an LED encapsulation source, thereby saving cost. Moreover, problems such as nonuniform images and chromatic aberration are basically avoided when the LED assembly is applied to an LCD module.

  • Patent number: 11503304
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a perceptual quality application computes an absolute quality score for encoded video content. In operation, the perceptual quality application selects a model based on the spatial resolution of the video content from which the encoded video content is derived. The model associates a set of objective values for a set of objective quality metrics with an absolute quality score. The perceptual quality application determines a set of target objective values for the objective quality metrics based on the encoded video content. Subsequently, the perceptual quality application computes the absolute quality score for the encoded video content based on the selected model and the set of target objective values. Because the absolute quality score is independent of the quality of the video content, the absolute quality score accurately reflects the perceived quality of a wide range of encoded video content when decoded and viewed.
