Provided are a program, a method, and an apparatus for decoding coded data, capable of completely restoring an original stream when decoded data is coded again by causing a computer to function as: means for receiving an input of a signal coded by lossy compression and orthogonally projecting an optional real number vector on one convex aggregate X in a first vector space in which the decoded signal is present; means for judging convergence of convex projection and obtaining a real number vector x belonging to the aggregate X to output the same as a decoded signal when the convergence of the convex projection is judged; and means for orthogonally projecting an optional vector of the first vector space on one convex aggregate Y in a second vector space different from the first vector space when the convergence of the convex projection is not judged, and then repeating orthogonal projection on the aggregate X and the aggregate Y with the coded signal set as an initial value.

An electronic image into which an electronic watermark is to be embedded is divided into a plurality of image regions spatially, and pixels each having a property of being difficult to visually recognize a variation in a pixel value are extracted as adaptive pixels from each of the plurality of image regions. A variation between the pixel values of the adaptive pixels in one of the plurality of image regions and those of the adaptive pixels in an adjacent one of the plurality of image regions is produced, and the pixel values of the adaptive pixels of the plurality of image regions are varied in a time direction according to the value of an embedded bit set of the electronic watermark. An electronic-watermark-embedded image is then generated by making the variation in the pixel values of the adaptive pixels vary step by step at a boundary between the two of the plurality of image regions and/or in the time direction so that the variation makes a slow transition.

In an engine used for a portable working apparatus such as a brush cutter, there are arranged a drive gear rotated by a starter motor, and a driven gear engaging with the drive gear and connected to a crankshaft through a nonreturn clutch. The driven gear is fixed to the crankshaft until the starter motor starts the engine and released from the crankshaft after the start of the engine and after a rotational speed of the crankshaft exceeds that of the starter motor.

A thread cutting device for a sewing machine includes a stationary blade which is disposed downwardly of a needle plate and a movable blade. The stationary blade is provided at its one end with a cutting edge. The movable blade which is formed with a cutout in the surface opposite to the stationary blade, is adapted to rotate about a shaft and pass over the needle plate and the stationary blade. The cutout is adapted to catch and guide a thread along a path for the thread and provided with a cutting edge to cooperate with the cutting edge of the stationary blade to cut the thread. A through hole is formed between the cutout and the cutting edge of the movable blade to meander the thread through the hole.

This choke device is characterized in that a starting pump 49 for supplying the fuel in a fuel tank 25 by suction to a starting nozzle port 41, is driven by a fuel motor 53. Starting of the engine is executed by the use of a starting motor or a recoil starter, by supplying the fuel in the fuel tank 25 to the starting nozzle port 41 through sucking of the fuel with the starting fuel pump 49 which is turned by the fuel motor 53, thereby facilitating the ignition by augmenting the concentration of the mixed gas.

Fuel supply system for an engine

Disclosed is a fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine having a fuel tank, a combustion chamber defined in an engine cylinder, and an air intake passage communicating with the combustion chamber. The fuel supply system comprises a main fuel passage communicating the fuel tank and the air intake passage, first supply mechanism provided on the main fuel passage for supplying main fuel from the fuel tank to the air intake passage responsive to the cranking of the engine a starting fuel passage defined separate from the main fuel passage and communicating with the air intake passage and the main fuel passage, and second supply mechanism provided on the starting fuel passage for supplying a predetermined amount of starting fuel into the air intake passage, in addition to the supply of main fuel, responsive to the temperature of the engine cylinder upon starting of the engine. The main fuel passage and the starting fuel passage communicate with the venturi portion of the air intake passage so that the supply of both main fuel and starting fuel into the intake air passage is performed at the venturi portion.
