Fast intra prediction in the transform domain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper, we present a fast intra prediction method based on separating the transformed coefficients. The prediction block can be obtained from the transformed and quantized neighboring block generating minimum distortion for each DC and AC ...

Fast mode decision for the H.264∕AVC video coding standard based on frequency domain motion estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The H.264 video coding standard achieves high performance compression and image quality at the expense of increased encoding complexity. Consequently, several fast mode decision and motion estimation techniques have been developed to reduce the ...

An Efficient Intra Skip Decision Algorithm for H.264/AVC Video Coding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this study, we propose a simple, highly efficient intra skip decision algorithm to reduce the computational complexity of H.264/AVC coding. It utilizes information such as the best mode and the rate value of the RD cost function, which are all pre ...

Affect and prosocial behavior : The role of decision mode and individual processing style

open access: yes, 2022
We study the effects of experimental manipulation of decision mode (rational "brain" vs. affective "heart") and individual difference in processing styles (intuition vs. deliberation) on prosocial behavior. In a survey experiment with a diverse sample of

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

A novel energy reduction technique for H.264 intra mode decision

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, we propose a novel energy reduction technique for H.264 intra mode decision. The proposed technique reduces the number of additions performed by Sum of Absolute Transformed Difference based 4×4, 16×16 and 8×8 intra mode decision algorithms
