Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a boundary detection unit, a correlation value calculation unit, and a region detection unit. The boundary detection unit detects an inner boundary and an outer boundary in each of local regions in an image including an object and a background. The inner boundary is a boundary between the object and the background when viewed from the object, and the outer boundary is a boundary between the object and the background when viewed from the background. The correlation value calculation unit calculates a spatial correlation value between the inner boundary and the outer boundary for each of the local regions. The region detection unit detects a local region having a correlation value less than or equal to a certain threshold among the local regions.

Abstract: A weighting coefficient sequence defining unit generates an array in which weighting coefficients are held at positions defined by the directional components of blur vectors, and adjusts the weighting coefficients to increase the sum of the frequency components of the array or reduce variations of the frequency components. A weighting unit multiplies respective captured images by corresponding weighting coefficients, generating L weighted captured images. The weighting unit then generates the synthesized image of the L weighted captured images. A corrected image generation unit performs deconvolution processing using the frequency component of the array in which the weighting coefficients are held at positions defined by the directional components of blur vectors, and the frequency component of the synthesized image. The corrected image generation unit performs an inverse frequency transform for the deconvolution processing result, generating an output image.

Abstract: Bags are formed from reclaimed plastic material. Each bag comprises two opposed sheet sections formed substantially entirely of a first plastic type, but also containing impurity particles of a different plastic type. The sheet sections comprise at least two distinct independent layers, with each layer in each sheet section being surface bonded to each adjacent layer in that sheet section. Although discontinuities in each layer resulting from the impurity particles create weak areas and in some cases apertures, the weakened portions of each layer are reinforced by portions of the other layer that are not weakened, since there is a minute likelihood that an impurity particle in one layer will be precisely co-located with an impurity particle in an adjacent layer. Thus, each layer reinforces the other layer to maintain structural integrity of the sheet section and of the bag. Methods for forming such bags are also described.

Abstract: A hydrogen-resistant optical fiber particularly well-suitable for downhole applications comprises a relatively thick pure silica core and a depressed-index cladding layer. Interposed between the depressed-index cladding layer and the core is a relatively thin germanium-doped interface.

The hydrogen-resistant fiber of the present invention can be formed to include one or more Bragg gratings within the germanium-doped interface, useful for sensing applications.
