Title: Innovations of Yoshiyuki Goi
Introduction
Yoshiyuki Goi is a notable inventor based in Osaka, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of image processing and decoding technologies. With a total of 2 patents, his work has had a considerable impact on the industry.
Latest Patents
Yoshiyuki Goi's latest patents include an "Image information decoder with a reduced capacity frame memory." This invention discloses an MPEG decoder designed for reproducing moving picture data. The decoder features a first frame memory (FM0) and a second frame memory (FM1), each composed of 2N slots, along with a third frame memory (FM2) consisting of N+4 slots. Each slot is equipped with a memory capacity of eight lines. FM0 and FM1 are designed to store reference frames for motion compensation, while FM2 has a memory capacity of half a frame plus 32 lines for B-PICTURE interlace conversion. Additionally, a slot control memory (SM) is included to manage the slots of FM2 efficiently.
Another significant patent is the "Decoding circuit for runlength codes." This invention initializes all data words stored in a first scan transform RAM to '0's. It then overwrites only signed level data words based on zero runlength data words at designated positions in the first scan transform RAM. This process allows for real-time, highly efficient runlength decoding, responsive to a high-frequency picture element clock signal.
