This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for data compression and decompression. The present implementations more specifically relate to entropy encoding and decoding techniques for keeping a state variable within upper and lower bounds using a noniterative process.

An apparatus for remote processing of raw image data receives the raw image data from a camera, such as a security camera. The apparatus includes a detection module to detect portions of the image data that contain possible regions of interest. Information indicating the portions that contain the possible regions of interest is then used during a compression process so that the portions that contain the possible regions of interest are compressed using one or more compression algorithms to facilitate further analysis and the remainder are treated differently. The compressed image data is then transmitted to a central system for decompression and further analysis. In some cases, the detection system may detect possible regions of interest which appear to be faces, but without performing full facial recognition.

A display driver that drives a display panel comprises storage circuitry, color addition processing circuitry, and drive circuitry. The storage circuitry stores F subpixel data acquired from color coordinate data indicating color coordinates of a displayed color in a predetermined color space displayed on the display panel when an R subpixel, a G subpixel, and a B subpixel in each of a plurality of pixels of the display panel are driven with drive signals corresponding to a minimum grayscale value and an F subpixel in each of the plurality of pixels which displays an additional color other than a primary color R, a primary color G, and a primary color B is driven with a drive signal corresponding to a maximum grayscale value. The color addition processing circuitry generates output FRGB data from input RGB data, in response to the F subpixel data stored in the storage circuitry.

System and method for mitigating impulse noise and burst noise in touch sensing
An input device comprising a set of electrodes configured to detect a user input of a user and a processing system is provided. The processing system comprises a signal level monitor configured to detect burst noise or impulse noise and one or more processors configured to: perform a scan step of a plurality of scan steps by driving one or more first transmitter electrodes of the plurality of transmitter electrodes with one or more sensing signals; obtain one or more first resulting signals corresponding to the one or more sensing signals used to drive the one or more first transmitter electrodes; detect, based on the one or more first resulting signals, the burst noise or the impulse noise corresponding to the scan step; and in response to detecting the burst noise or the impulse noise, restart the scan step.
This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for low-light imaging. In some implementations, an image processor may be configured to reduce or remove noise associated with an image based, at least in part, on a neural network. For example, the neural network may be trained to infer a denoised representation of the image. In some aspects, the image processor may scale the brightness level of the image to fall within a normalized range of values associated with the neural network. In some other aspects, a machine learning system may scale the brightness levels of input images to match the brightness levels of ground truth images used to train the neural network. Still further, in some aspects, the machine learning system may scale the brightness levels of the input images and the brightness levels of the ground truth images to fall within the normalized range of values during training.
This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for low-light imaging. The present implementations more specifically relate to selecting images that can be used for training a neural network to infer denoised representations of images captured in low light conditions. In some aspects, a machine learning system may obtain a series of images of a given scene, where each of the images is associated with a different SNR (representing a unique combination of exposure and gain settings). The machine learning system may identify a number of saturated pixels in each image and classify each of the images as a saturated image or a non-saturated image based on the number of saturated pixels. The machine learning system may then select the non-saturated image with the highest SNR as the ground truth image, and the non-saturated images with lower SNRs as the input images, to be used for training the neural network.

Low ground mass mitigation for pens includes sensing circuitry configured to transmit, during a first frame, a beacon signal on a first subset of sensing electrodes, the first subset being along a first axis of an input device, transmit, during a second frame, the beacon signal on a second subset of the sensing electrodes, the second subset being along the first axis and different from the first subset, and receive a pen signal transmitted responsive to the beacon signal. The processing circuitry is configured to detect a location of a capacitive pen using the pen signal.
