Inter-Prediction is always the main bottleneck in H.264/AVC Baseline Profile. This paper describes an efficient Inter-Prediction hardware architecture design. H.264/AVC decoder supports various block types such as $16{\times}16$, $16{\times}8$, $8{\times}16$, $8{\times}8$, $8{\times}4$, $4{\times}8$, $4{\times}4$ block types. Reference Software(JM) only considers the $4{\times}4$ block type when the reference block is being fetched. This causes duplicated pixels which needs extra fetch cycles. In order to eliminate some of the duplicated pixels, the $8{\times}8$ and $4{\times}4$ block types were considered in the previous design. If the block size is larger than or equal to the $8{\times}8$ block type, it will be separated into several $8{\times}8$ block types and if the block size is smaller than the $8{\times}8$ block type it will be separated into several $4{\times}4$ blocks. For further reduction of the fetch cycles, the various block types are considered in this paper. As a result, the maximum cycle reduction percentage is 18.6% comparing with the previous design.

This paper proposes a unified $4{\times}4$ transform architecture for HEVC and VP9 codec to reduce hardware size. It performs HEVC $4{\times}4$ IDCT, HEVC $4{\times}4$ IDST, VP9 $4{\times}4$ IDCT, and VP9 $4{\times}4$ IADST in a unified hardware. HEVC $4{\times}4$ IDCT and VP9 $4{\times}4$ IDCT have same IDCT computation except for the scales of coefficients. Similarly, HEVC $4{\times}4$ IDST and VP9 $4{\times}4$ IADST have same IDST computation except for the scales of coefficients. Furthermore, IDCT and IDST have quite a lot of similarity, so they can share some hardwares in common. So the proposed hardware performs all 4 operations in a unified hardware, where each operation has its own multiplication coefficients with shared butterfly adders. The synthesized block in 0.18 um technology is 6,679 gates, and the gate count is reduced by 25.3% in comparison with conventional designs.

This paper proposed an $8{\times}8$ HEVC inverse core transform architecture reusing multipliers. In HEVC core transform, processing of lower size block is identical with even part of upper size block. So an $8{\times}8$ core transform architecture can process both $8{\times}8$ and $4{\times}4$ core transforms. However, when $8{\times}8$ core transform architecture is exploited, frame processing time doubles in $4{\times}4$ core transform, since $8{\times}8$ and $4{\times}4$ core transforms concurrently process 8 and 4 pixels, respectively. In this paper, a novel inverse core transform architecture is proposed based on multiplier reuse. It runs as an $8{\times}8$ inverse core transformer or two $4{\times}4$ inverse core transformer. Its frame processing time is same in $8{\times}8$ and $4{\times}4$ core transforms, and reduces gate counts by 12%.

In this paper, we propose a new $4{\times}4$ intra coding method by unidirectional prediction for improvement of intra-frame coding efficiency of H.264/AVC. There are $4{\times}4$, $8{\times}8$, and $16{\times}16$ intra prediction modes in the current H.264/AVC. For the $4{\times}4$ intra prediction, coding efficiency is achieved by accurate prediction with small block size in relatively complicated regions, and the $16{\times}16$ intra prediction method can predict more accurately compared to $4{\times}4$ intra prediction with only one directional information in relatively homogeneous regions. We propose a unidirectional $4{\times}4$ intra prediction method adopting a small-size prediction and one directional prediction approaches. In order to improve coding efficiency, the proposed method is conducted by $4{\times}4$ block and their prediction directions are all the same, resulting that we need to send only one directional information for each macroblock. For intra-frame coding setting, we achieve 10.47% and 1.57% coding efficiency in BD-bitrate for only $16{\times}16$ intra mode and $4{\times}4$, $16{\times}16$ intra mode, respectively.

We evaluated changes in the microbiological quality and safety of food items (vegetables, seaweed, and processed food) supplied to elementary school food services to evaluate the distribution/delivery system. Pretreated vegetables, seaweed, and processed food were delivered to schools in refrigerated (${\leq}10^{\circ}C$) vans that made several delivery stops before arriving at the schools. During the distribution stage, total plate and coliforms counts were: bellflower roots $7.6{\times}10^5-6.7{\times}10^6$ and $5.8{\times}10^4-5.2{\times}10^5$ CFU/g; blanched bracken $4.5{\times}10^3-2.1{\times}10^5$, $5.0{\times}10^3-1{\times}10^4$ CFU/g; onion $1.2{\times}10^4-1.4{\times}10^4$, $5.0{\times}10$ CFU/g; soybean sprouts $9.6{\times}10^4-6.3{\times}10^7$ and $1.1{\times}10^3-1.2{\times}10^7$ CFU/g; soybean curd < $10-9.7{\times}10^5$ and < $10-2.3{\times}10^5$ CFU/g; and starch jelly < $10-3.8{\times}10^3$ and <10 CFU/g. Bacillus cereus < $10-4.1{\times}10^2$ CFU/g, Escherichia coli $1.0{\times}10-2.0{\times}10$ CFU/g, and Staphylococcus aureus $1.3{\times}10^2-4.1{\times}10^2$ CFU/g were detected on peeled bellflower, whereas B. cereus < $10-4.1{\times}10^2$ CFU/g, Listeria monocytogenes $1.0{\times}10-4.5{\times}10^2$ CFU/g, and S. aureus $1.8{\times}10^2-4.5{\times}10^2$ CFU/g, were detected on soybean sprouts. Most food items were double-wrapped in vinyl and placed in corrugated cardboard boxes prior to delivery, but the boxes, when placed in vans, were not segregated from other food items being delivered to schools and other destinations.

This study evaluated the microbiological quality and safety of food items(seafood, meat, eggs, and frozen food) supplied to elementary school food services, during delivery, and analyzed the distribution/delivery system. To this end, 10 food items supplied by 13 factories in Daegu and Gyeongbuk were chosen for study. Beef and pork were delivered directly to schools in freezer vans. Seafood, chicken, and frozen food were delivered to schools by refrigerated vans(${\leq}10^{\circ}C$) that made other delivery stops before arriving at schools. After food was delivered to schools, total bacterial counts and coliforms(respectively) were as follows: mackerel($2.0{\times}10^2-3.2{\times}10^5$, $<5-4.0{\times}10^3CFU/g$), common squid($2.5{\times}10^4-6.6{\times}10^5$, $1.6{\times}10^2-6.0{\times}10^3CFU/g$), shellfish($3.2{\times}10^5-1.7{\times}10^3$, $4.0{\times}10^3-3.0{\times}10\;CFU/g$), boiled fish paste($1.9{\times}10^4$, <5 CFU/g), beef($9.2{\times}10^2-6.4{\times}10^4$, $<5-2.0{\times}10\;CFU/g$), pork($2.6{\times}10^3-1.3{\times}10^6$, $<5-2.7{\times}10^2CFU/g$), chicken($1.0{\times}10^4$, $2.4{\times}10^2CFU/g$), egg($<5-2.3{\times}10^2$, <5 CFU/g), frozen mandu($3.2{\times}10^3-9.5{\times}10^4$, <5 CFU/g), and frozen noodles($<5-9.0{\times}10$, <5 CFU/g). Bacillus cereus($2.0{\times}10\;CFU/g$) and E. coli($1.0{\times}10\;CFU/g$) were detected on shellfish, and Staphylococcus aureuswas detected on pork($3.1{\times}10\;CFU/g$) and chicken($7.8{\times}10\;CFU/g$). Most food items were double-wrapped in vinyl and placed in corrugated cardboard boxes prior to delivery, and the boxes weremixed with other food items when they were put in the vans. There was no cross-contamination during distribution. However, total shellfish bacterial counts increased slightly. These results indicate that foods need to be completely pasteurized during processing. Frozen food items should not be mixed and should be delivered by freezer vans(${\leq}4^{\circ}C$). The number of stops made during distribution/delivery should be reduced.

VVC(Versatile Video Coding)는 입력된 영상을 CTU(Coding Tree Unit) 단위로 분할하여 코딩하며, 이를 다시 QTBTT(Quadtree plus binary tree and triple tree)로 분할하고, TU(Transform Unit)도 이와 같은 단위로 분할된다. 따라서 TU의 크기는 $4{\times}4$, $4{\times}8$, $4{\times}16$, $4{\times}32$, $8{\times}4$, $16{\times}4$, $32{\times}4$, $8{\times}8$, $8{\times}16$, $8{\times}32$, $16{\times}8$, $32{\times}8$, $16{\times}16$, $16{\times}32$, $32{\times}16$, $32{\times}32$, $64{\times}64$의 17가지 종류가 있다. 기존의 VVC 참조 Software인 VTM에서는 디블록킹필터와 SAO(Sample Adaptive Offset)로 이루어진 인루프필터를 이용하여 에러를 복원하는데, 본 논문은 TU 크기에 따라서 원본블록과 복원블록의 차이(에러)가 통계적으로 다름을 이용하여 서로 다른 CNN(Convolution Neural Network)을 구축하고 에러를 복원하는 방법으로 VTM의 인루프 필터를 대체한다. 복원영상의 에러를 감소시키기 위하여 TU 블록크기에 따라 DenseNet의 Dense Block기반 CNN을 구성하고, Hyper Parameter와 복잡도의 감소를 위해 네트워크 간에 일부 가중치를 공유하는 모양의 Network를 구성하였다.

In this paper, a unified inverse transformer is designed for HEVC and VP9. The proposed architecture performs all modes of HEVC and VP9 in the unified inverser transformer, such as $4{\times}4{\sim}32{\times}32$ HEVC IDCT, $4{\times}4$ HEVC IDST, $4{\times}4{\sim}32{\times}32$ VP9 IDCT, $4{\times}4{\sim}16{\times}16$ VP9 IADST and $4{\times}4$ IWHT. Same computations are used in HEVC IDCT and VP9 IDCT, except for the scales of the coefficients. Similarly, same computations are used in HEVC $4{\times}4$ IDST and VP9 $4{\times}4$ IADST, except for the scales of the coefficients. Furthermore, HEVC IDCT, VP9 IDCT, and VP9 IADST are the subsets of upper level IDCTs. The proposed architecture reuses multipliers when the computation is identical. Also it shares adders and butterfly structures even when the multiplier coefficients are different. So it reduces the hardware size significantly. Synthesized in 0.18 um technology, the gate count is 456,442 gates. which achieved 22.6% reduction compared to conventional architectures.
