Publication number: 20230070021Abstract: A video encoding method includes (i) determining a current bit rate of a communication channel between a destination device and a source device that stores an input video frame, and (ii) generating a current reconstructed frame and an encoded bitstream at least in part via inter-frame coding of a current input video frame of a sequence of input video frames using a previously-generated reconstructed frame generated at least in part via inter-frame coding of a previous input video frame. The current reconstructed frame is a compressed version of the current input video frame. When both (i) a subsequent bit rate, determined after said inter-frame coding, is less than a threshold and (ii) the current bit rate exceeds the threshold, the method includes: (a) generating a downscaled reconstructed frame at least in part by downscaling the current reconstructed frame; and (b) appending the encoded bitstream with a bit sequence representing the downscaled reconstructed frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2021Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventor: Hitoshi Watanabe

Publication number: 20230070023Abstract: A particulate oxide composition comprising cerium oxide, trivalent dopant, and optional additional metal oxide, other than cerium oxide and trivalent dopant, is beneficial to aid in the removal of biological contaminants, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa (e.g., amoebae), yeast and algae. This particulate oxide composition contains more cerium oxide than trivalent dopant and has a unique depth profile in which the average trivalent dopant to Ce ratio at about 0 nm to about 3.5 nm from the surface of the particulate composition is greater than the trivalent dopant to Ce ratio at about 15 nm from the surface of the particulate composition. These trivalent doped cerium oxide compositions can be used to remove these biological contaminants from fluids, including air and water, and from solid surfaces. Also described are methods of using compositions containing these trivalent doped cerium oxide compositions to remove biological contaminants.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Applicant: Neo Chemicals & Oxides, LLCInventors: Dimitrios Psaras, Mason Reames Haneline, Steven P.

Publication number: 20230070024Abstract: A rotation speed measurement method based on a femtosecond optical frequency comb is provided. In the method, a rotation axis of a rotating object to be measured and an optical path main axis are coplanar, and perpendicular to each other, and a first converging lens focuses an emitting beam obtained by expanding the laser on a surface of the rotating object. A repetition frequency and a carrier-envelope offset frequency of the femtosecond optical frequency comb are locked during the measurement. A repetition frequency difference is read from a frequency counter. A rotation speed of the rotating object is calculated as follows: M = c ? ? ? f r 4 ? ? ? f r ? sin ? ? ? R = ? ? ? ? f r R .Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventors: Chuanqing XIA, Tengfei WU, Jibo HAN, Chunbo ZHAO
