Systems and methods for psycho-signal processing. According to an aspect, a method includes receiving a visual representation of a subject. The method also includes performing a structured motion operation on the received visual representation to generate a modified visual representation of the subject. The method further includes presenting, via a user interface, the modified visual representation.

The disclosed method may include (1) receiving an input datum to be processed using a non-linear function to produce an output datum, (2) comparing the input datum to a plurality of indexes of a lookup table, where the indexes designate input endpoints of a plurality of piecewise-linear sections approximating the non-linear functions, and where the lookup table further includes, for each of the indexes (a) a slope of the piecewise-linear section corresponding to the index, and (b) an axis intercept of the piecewise-linear section corresponding to the index (2) selecting, based on comparing the input datum to the plurality of indexes, an index that designates the piecewise-linear section associated with the input datum, and (4) calculating, using the slope and the axis intercept corresponding to the selected index, the output data corresponding to the input datum.

The present invention discloses a signal enhancement relay apparatus is provided. A display data channel stretching circuit includes a direct and an indirect channels. A snooper circuit is disposed at the direct channel. The indirect channel includes a master and a slave paths having a master and a slave transmission circuits disposed thereon. The direct channel is selected under a default passive mode such that a snooper link bridging handler circuit is enabled to monitor a display data transmission on the direct path through the snooper circuit, to perform a channel link bridging process corresponding to a data enhancement transmission channel accordingly. When the channel link bridging process under the passive mode fails, the indirect channel is selected under an active mode such that a intervening link bridging handler circuit t is enabled to access the display data transmission on the master and the slave paths respectively through the master and the slave transmission circuits, to perform the channel link bridging process respectively.

Systems and methods for signal communication over an optical link are described. One aspect includes receiving a source CONFIG1 signal from a DP master device and a sink CONFIG1 signal from a sink terminal. The source and sink CONFIG1 signals are analyzed. It is determined whether a signal transmission mode is a DP protocol. For a DP protocol, a pair of source AUX signals is received from the DP master device. A pair of sink AUX signals is received from the sink terminal. Communication resource contention between the source and sink AUX signals is identified. A communication direction of the communication resources is transitioned to give the source AUX signals precedence over the sink AUX signals. The source AUX signals are transferred to the sink terminal via the communication resources. The direction of the communication resources is again transitioned. The sink AUX signals are transferred to the DP master device.

A projector includes an image converting module, a processing module and an imaging module. The image converting module receives an original image sequence with a first frame rate. The image converting module inserts a plurality of supplement images into the original image sequence per second to output a supplement image sequence with a second frame rate, wherein the second frame rate is larger than the first frame rate. The processing module is coupled to the image converting module. The processing module receives the supplement image sequence from the image converting module. The processing module ignores the supplement images and processes and outputs the original image sequence. The imaging module is coupled to the processing module. The imaging module receives the original image sequence from the processing module and outputs the original image sequence by the first frame rate.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for bandwidth extension. One of the methods includes obtaining a low-resolution version of an input, the low-resolution version of the input comprising a first number of samples at a first sample rate over a first time period; and generating, from the low-resolution version of the input, a high-resolution version of the input comprising a second, larger number of samples at a second, higher sample rate over the first time period. Generating the high-resolution version includes generating a representation of the low-resolution version of the input; processing the representation of the low-resolution version of the input through a conditioning neural network to generate a conditioning input; and processing the conditioning input using a generative neural network to generate the high/resolution version of the input.

A low-resolution image is displayed at high resolution and power consumption is reduced. Resolution is made higher by super-resolution processing. Then, display is performed with the luminance of a backlight controlled by local dimming after the super-resolution processing. By controlling the luminance of the backlight, power consumption can be reduced. Further, by performing the local dimming ater the super-resolution processing, accurate display can be performed.
