20100128168 | Apparatus and method for coding block boundary detection using interpolated autocorrelation - An apparatus and method for coding block boundary detection using interpolated autocorrelation is disclosed. Input video frames are processed to obtain a binary map of possible block boundary pixels including original and rescaled block boundaries. The boundary pixel map is converted to a boundary histogram. Then interpolated autocorrelation is applied to the boundary histogram to detect the block size and block size offset. The interpolated autocorrelation handles both integer sizes and non-integer sizes. A confidence measure is also determined that reflects the accuracy of the detection result. The output for the current video frame is also post processed with information from previous frames to provide better temporal stability. | 05-27-2010 |
20100165207 | APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MOTION DETECTION FOR TEMPORAL MOSQUITO NOISE REDUCTION IN VIDEO SEQUENCES - Apparatus and methods of motion detection for mosquito noise reduction in video sequences are provided. In one aspect, a method of motion detection in a sequence of digital images classifies a pixel of a plurality of pixels of a current image frame represented by a digital video input signal as a motion or non-motion pixel. A motion value for the pixel is calculated based on the classification of the pixel. The motion value is mapped to a coefficient of a temporal filter based on a control curve. A digital video output signal is generated based on the coefficient. | 07-01-2010 |
20120170864 | PERCEPTUAL BLOCK MASKING ESTIMATION SYSTEM - Systems and methods are disclosed for determining the perceptibility of noise in a block of images and/or video. The systems and methods may compute a mask value for the block using a block masking generator. The mask value may indicate the perceptibility of noise in the block. The mask value may be computed using a normalized activity value and/or a texture value for the block. The normalized activity value may indicate the relative activity in the block as compared to the activity in the image and/or video. The texture value may indicate the strength and/or number of edges in the block. | 07-05-2012 |

20120098973 | AUTOMATIC FREQUENCY SELECTION FOR PEAKING - An automatic frequency selection circuit includes a base filter for receiving a video input, a peaking filter for receiving the video input, a first energy computation unit coupled to an output of the base filter, a second energy computation unit coupled to an output of the peaking filter, an automatic frequency control unit to compare relative measured energies of the first and second energy computation units and to output a temporarily stable selected frequency for a targeted attenuation, and a frame delay feedback unit for receiving the temporarily stable selected frequency coupled to the peaking filter. | 04-26-2012 |
20130121424 | MOTION COMPENSATED DE-BLOCKING - Digital noise removal methods and systems for picture quality improvement on next generation high quality set-top-box and digital TV SOCs is disclosed with particular to a de-blocking method and system that is effective on on-grid and off-grid blocky artifacts generated by lossy video compression standards. Blocky artifacts are filtered by extracting motions vectors for a current pixel block, calculating off-grid positions based on the extracted motion vectors, and applying de-blocking filtering along the calculated off-grid positions. The methods and systems can further skip filtering on-grid blocky artifacts to be filtered by an on-grid de-blocking filter known in the art. | 05-16-2013 |

20100142898 | BAIL RELEASE MECHANISM FOR COMMUNICATIONS MODULE - In one example, a bail release mechanism includes a bail and a de-latching member. The bail is configured to be attached to the shell of a module that includes a latch pin configured to engage a structure of a host device receptacle to secure the module within the receptacle. The bail is further configured to rotate about a first axis between a latched position and an unlatched position. The first axis is in a fixed position relative to the shell. The de-latching member is attached to the bail at a second axis that is offset from the first axis and is configured to rotate about the second axis. The second axis is movable relative to the shell. The de-latching member includes a first end configured to displace the structure of the receptacle during rotation of the de-latching member to disengage the latch pin from the structure. | 06-10-2010 |
