Title: Max Elliot and His Patent in Video Encoding.

Introduction

Max Elliot is an inventor based in London, Great Britain, associated with V-Nova International Limited. His patent work concerns video encoding, including how transformed data coefficients are ordered for compression.

Latest Patents

Elliot is identified with 1 patent, titled “Transformed Coefficient Ordering for Entropy Coding.” The patent describes an encoding method that creates base-layer reconstruction data from a down-sampled version of input data, then generates enhancement-layer data containing residuals that represent differences between the reconstruction and data derived from the input.

The method applies a Hadamard transform to the residual data and arranges the resulting coefficients into surfaces for encoding. It selects an order for those coefficients, such as tile raster order or an n-by-n block “Z”-order, before applying data compression to produce the encoded output.

Career Highlights

The disclosed invention addresses the organization of transform coefficients within an encoder’s compression process. By specifying alternative coefficient orders, the method provides a structured approach to preparing residual data for entropy coding.

Collaborations

The patent is associated with V-Nova International Limited, a company working in video compression technology. The available information connects Elliot’s invention with the company but does not specify additional collaborators.

Conclusion

Max Elliot’s patent focuses on coefficient ordering in a layered video-encoding method, linking his London-based inventor profile with V-Nova International Limited’s work in compression technology.
