US Patent Issued to Imagination Technologies on Sept. 1 for "Decoding a compressed data structure encoding a set of Haar coefficients for a quad of pixels" (British Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 1 -- United States Patent no. 12,725,313, issued on Sept. 1, was assigned to Imagination Technologies Ltd. (Kings Langley, Great Britain).

"Decoding a compressed data structure encoding a set of Haar coefficients for a quad of pixels" was invented by Rostam King (Hertfordshire, Great Britain).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A compressed data structure that encodes a set of Haar coefficients for a 2x2 quad of pixels of a block of pixels is decoded. The set of Haar coefficients comprises differential coefficients and an average coefficient. A first portion of the compressed data structure encodes the differential coefficients for the 2x2 quad of pixels. A second portion of ...
