Geert Van der Auwera, a resident of Bonheiden, BE, is a skilled inventor who has been associated with renowned companies like IMEC and Vrije Universiteit Brussel. He has invented two exceptional patents that have contributed greatly to the field of video compression and motion estimation.
His latest patent, "Method and system for subband encoding and decoding of an overcomplete representation of the data structure," offers a solution for mapping a part of n-dimensional data structures within predefined similarity criteria to another part of the data structure. It is particularly useful in sequential video frames such as motion estimation and/or compensation of moving pictures. The patent uses digital filtering to generate subbands of a set of subbands, and the filtering may be implemented either in a separate filter module or via software.
The second patent, "Method and system for video compression," discloses a method for determining the motion vector of a block of a video frame with respect to a reference frame. This patented method uses a norm of an error which is given by functions of the pixel values of the video frame and the reference frame, and then selects a motion vector with the smallest error norm.
Working with some of the renowned personalities in the field of software engineering such as Adrian Munteanu and Jan Cornelis, Geert has shown his extraordinary skills to develop innovative technologies.
Geert Van der Auwera's inventions and patents are groundbreaking advancements in the field of video compression and other related areas. His contributions are significant, and they have provided valuable solutions to industry and academic researchers.
