Image and video coding standards, such as JPEG, H.264/AVC, are widely used in industry. In these standards, block-based transforms are employed to compact signal energy. The transform coefficients are coarsely quantized. The quantization is the source error that causes coding artifacts, such as bl.....

An adjustable force regulator is invented. The force regular is a simple passive mechanical device, which can be applied in manufacturing/ assembly operations wherein the reaction force between the tool and the workpiece needs to be limited below a certain magnitude. The regulator consists of four.....

A signal transduction related gene was cloned from the monocot plant rice. Expression of this gene in the dicot plant Arabidopsis thaliana enhances disease resistance and elevates expression of defense marker genes. The successful protection effect of a monocot gene in a dicot plant indicates its .....
