1. A multiple-input, multiple-output encoder comprising:
- a filtering kernel comprising a plurality (N) of sets of filters, each of the N sets of filters having a plurality (M) of filter elements; and
at least one time encoding machine (TEM), each of the M filter elements of the N sets of filter elements being additively coupled to a corresponding input of the at least one TEM.

12. An encoder to encode a video stream signal comprising:
-
a filter to receive the video stream signal, the filter having a plurality (N) of filter elements; and a Time Encoding Machine (TEM) to generate a plurality (N) of TEM encoded spatiotemporal field signals in response to a spatiotemporal field signal received from a corresponding one of the N filter elements. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)

15. A decoder to decode a TEM-encoded video stream signal comprising:
-
a Time Decoding Machine (TDM) to receive a plurality (N) of TEM-encoded spatiotemporal field signals, and for each TEM-encoded spatiotemporal field signal generate a TDM-decoded spatiotemporal field signal; and an adder to combine each of said TDM-decoded spatiotemporal field signals to recover the video stream signal.

16. A system to alter a video stream signal comprising:
-
a plurality (N) of TEM-filters; a plurality (N) of reconstruction filters; a switching matrix, operatively coupled to the plurality (N) of TEM-filters and the plurality (N) of reconstruction filters, to map a plurality (N) of TEM-encoded spatiotemporal field signals received from the N TEM-filters to the plurality (N) of reconstruction filters in a video stream signal TDM. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
