The benefit of using the geometry image to represent an arbitrary 3D mesh is that the 3D mesh can be re-sampled as a completely regular structure and coded efficiently by common image compression methods. For geometry image-based 3D mesh compression, we need to code the normal-map images while coding geometry images to improve the subjective quality and realistic effects of the reconstructed model. In traditional methods, a geometry image and a normal-map image are coded independently. However a strong correlation exists between these two kinds of images, because both of them are generated from the same 3D mesh and share the same parameterization. In this paper we propose a predictive coding framework, in which the normal-map image is predicted based on the geometric correlation between them. Additionally we utilize the strong geometric correlation among three components of normal-map image to improve the predicting accuracy. The experimental results show the proposed coding framework improves the coding efficiency of normal-map image, meanwhile the realistic effect of a 3D mesh is significantly enhanced. 相似文献
Co3?xMnxO4 is a bimetal oxide with excellent electrochemical activity in alkaline solution, has been regarded as a promising alternative in the field of ion-air batteries and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Herein, we report a simple solvothermal-calcination method to fabricate Co3?xMnxO4 with tunable external Co3+/Co2+ and Mn3+/Mn2+ ratio. The tunable ratio of element valence in the bimetal results in a higher exposure of active center for oxygen redox reaction (ORR), and thus lead to a better ORR activity, which was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy characterizations and electrochemical measurements. Specially, Co1.8Mn1.2O4 with a Co3+/Co2+ ratio of 2.08 showed an overpotential of 0.37 V at benchmark ORR current density of 3 mA/cm2 in 0.1 M KOH, which is lower than that of pure oxide (Mn3O4 0.53 V and Co3O4 0.56 V). In addition, the as prepared Co1.8Mn1.2O4 exhibited a positive half-wave potential (0.83 V vs RHE) due to their more active sites, promotes charge transfer, adsorption and desorption of oxygen species. This work provides a strategy for the design and fabrication of earth-abundant, low-cost electrocatalysts for PEMFC in practical applications.
