An exemplary method for encoding an image includes receiving image data, detecting edges in the image data, selecting at least some of the detected edges, encoding the selected edges as selected edge information, down-sampling the image data, encoding the down-sampled image as down-sampled image information and multiplexing the selected edges information and the down-sampled image information. In such a method, the selected edges information and the down-sampled image information can be stored as an encoded image file. Other exemplary methods, devices, systems are also disclosed.       Recently Added Patents Building methods Heteroaryl-substituted bicyclic Smac mimetics and the uses thereof Method of the manufacture of an implantable intraocular planar/convex, biconvex, planar/convex or convex/concave lens, an open mold used for the execution of this method, and a lens made using Actuator system using multiple piezoelectric actuators Embolic filter delivery system and method Semiconductor device and method of forming an inductor within interconnect layer vertically separated from semiconductor die Methods and computer systems for analyzing high-throughput assays   Randomly Featured Patents Pulse tube cryocooler Bactericide valve on fluid collection bag Monitoring and warning system for individuals working under hazardous operating conditions Display materials, accessories therefor and methods Verifying a processor design using a processor simulation model Flow control composite valve Microchannel apparatus comprising plural microchannels and methods of conducting unit operations Face mask impregnated with odor reducing molecular sieve material Waveguide having low index substrate Blade tensioner with retaining pin and bracket © 2006-2008 PatentGenius.
