High efficiency video coding (HEVC) is a video compression standard that outperforms the predecessor H.264/AVC by doubling the compression efficiency. To enhance the coding accuracy, HEVC adopts sample adaptive offset (SAO) which classifies reconstructed pixels into different categories. During the pixel classification, however, SAO cannot use the raw samples in the current code-tree-block (CTB) boundary...
This paper studies the software test with automated test tool under cloud environment. The automated software test technology could speed up the test efficiency and less down the work of test engineers. On the cloud technology, the automated test tool should make some modification to adapt for cloud. The paper proposes the test integrated technology with automated test tool on cloud-based environment...
Rate-Distortion Optimization in High Efficiency Video Coding promotes the coding efficiency, but also imposes intensive computation to the encoder, because the complex Syntax-based context-adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding is performed for each candidate coding configuration. We develop the classification based regression method to derive the rate models, which fast estimate the bit cost of quantization...
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is the up-to-date video coding standard. Compared to the predecessor H.264/AVC, HEVC can further reduce approximately 50% bit rate on average with the competing perceptual quality. On the other hand, experiment shows that HEVC requires more than 4 times computational complexity during the encoding procedure. In ours test, even using fast TZSearch, integer motion...

Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a kind of progressive neuropathy with no clear cause. In the present fMRI study, a data-driven approach was employed to map the alteration of regional spontaneous activity in POAG patients by measuring the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) of the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal. Twenty one POAG patients and 22 age and gender matched healthy...
Synchronized phasor measurement and Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) have gained global acceptance and wide application in modern power systems. Accordingly, novel synchrophasor algorithms and PMU test systems are drawing increasing attentions. Right now, Taylor-Fourier Method for synchrophasor estimation has presented obvious advantages over traditional DFT Method, especially during dynamic signal...

HEVC doubles the coding efficiency with more than 4x coding complexity as compared to H.264/AVC. To alleviate the burden of Intra encoder, we estimate the RD-cost from the source image textures, and dynamically select two promising CU/PU mode candidates to execute exhaustive RDO processing. As integrated in our hardwired encoder, the averaged 61.7% computation complexity was saved with 4.53% rate...
A complete browser-based software is need to develop a separate complicated script or some scripts with existing automation testing tools. The paper proposed a regression test automation framework to implement automation test without script development during the test development. The form, data and control spreadsheet should be defined by test developer. The test automation framework provided a series...
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), a successor to H.264, is the next generation video compression standard. To enhance the coding efficiency of video frames, 35 intra prediction modes adopted in Prediction Unit (PU) from 4×4 to 64×64 of HEVC.

With the number of cores and working sets of parallel workloads soaring, shared L2 caches exhibit fewer misses than private L2 caches via making better use of the all available cache capacity. However, shared L2 caches induce higher overall L1 miss latencies because of longer average distance between requestor and home node, and potentially congestions at some nodes. We observe that there is a high...
As the number of cores and the working sets of parallel workloads increase, shared L2 caches exhibit fewer misses than private L2 caches by making a better use of the total available cache capacity, but they also induce higher overall L1 miss latencies because of the longer average distance between two nodes, and the potential congestions at certain nodes. One of the main causes of the long L1 miss...
The emerging video coding standard, High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), aims at doubling coding efficiency of H.264/AVC. In the intra encoding, Rate-Distortion Optimization (RDO) processes are employed to determine the best prediction mode. RDO based mode decision accounts for 35–39% coding time, because the large scale two-dimensional(2D) DCT/IDCT introduces a plethora of computation- and hardware-consuming...
In Optical Projection Tomography (OPT), if the rotational center deviates from the central line of the image and this offset is not corrected during the reconstruction, serious blurring will happen in the final 3-dimensional (3D) result. Therefore, the high-precision rotational center location method is very important for OPT. However, existing methods are inconvenient because they need active participation...
