Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for entropy encoding and decoding of a latent tensor, which includes separating the latent tensor into segments in the spatial dimensions and in the channel dimension, each segment including at least one latent tensor element. An arrangement of the segments is processed by a neural network; the neural network includes at least one attention layer. Based on the processed segment a probability model is obtained for entropy encoding or decoding of a latent tensor element.

Abstract: The present invention provides a device comprising circuitry configured to obtain a plurality of initial two-dimensional, 2D, images which together represent an initial three-dimensional, 3D, image, wherein each initial 2D image is associated with one of a plurality of focal planes. The device is further configured to generate one or more blurred versions of each of the initial 2D images on one or more of the focal planes other than its associated focal plane; generate a high passed version of each of the initial 2D images on its associated focal plane; and generate a plurality of final 2D images by generating for each focal plane a final 2D image based on the high passed version of the initial 2D image associated with that focal plane and one or more blurred versions generated on that focal plane from one or more of the other initial 2D images.

Abstract: A multifocal display device has a focus tunable lens (FTL) and a controller configured to shift a focus of the FTL from a first focal plane to a second focal plane by applying a compensated control signal to the FTL. The controller is configured to generate a current compensated control signal value, which is a value of the compensated control signal for a current point in time, based on one or more previous compensated control signal values, which are values of the compensated control signal at one or more previous points in time.

Abstract: An optical system for a display device for head mounting is described. In particular a Maxwellian display device, with an enlarged eye-box is described. The optical system includes a beam forming element configured to converge multiple sets of light beams into at least two points of convergence (e.g., on an exit pupil of the optical system or of the display device using the optical system), and at least one optical arrangement comprising an input for input light beams, at least one beam splitter and at least three reflectors. The at least one beam splitter and at least three reflectors are positioned to form the multiple sets of the light beams from the input light beams such that the multiple sets of the light beams have equally long beam paths from the input to the beam forming element. Each point of convergence is a convergent viewing point for a user, thus enlarging the eye-box.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to image modification such as an image enhancement wherein the processing is at least partially based on neural networks. In particular, the image modification includes a multi-channel processing in which a primary channel is processed separately and secondary channels are processed based on the processed primary channel. The primary channel is processed based on a first spatial frequency transform to obtain a transformed primary channel and the secondary channel is processed based on a second spatial frequency transform to obtain a transformed secondary channel. The transformed primary channel is processed by means of a first neural network to obtain a modified transformed primary channel and the transformed secondary channel is processed based on the transformed primary channel by means of a second neural network to obtain a modified transformed secondary channel.

Abstract: A conditional coding of components of an image is described. A method of encoding at least a portion of an image is provided, which comprises encoding a primary component of the image independently from at least one secondary component and encoding the at least one secondary component of the image using information from the primary component. Further, it is provided a method of encoding at least a portion of an image, comprising providing a residual comprising a primary residual component for a primary component of the image and at least one secondary residual component for at least one secondary component of the image that is different from the primary component, encoding the primary residual component independently from the at least one secondary residual component and encoding the at least one secondary residual component using information from the primary residual component.

Abstract: An image transmission device of a multifocal display system is described, for transmitting a set of N composite images based on a set of N primary images to an image reception device. N is greater or equal 2, and each of the N primary images has a focus distance associated therewith. The image transmission device includes processing circuitry configured to partition each of the N primary images into image portions and generate the N composite images by placing each image portion of each of the N primary images into one of the N composite images such that each of the N composite images comprises image portions from two or more of the N primary images. A communication interface transmits the N composite images to the image reception device (103).

Abstract: A driver assistance system detects lane markings in a perspective image of a road in front of a vehicle. The driver assistance system extracts a plurality of features, in particular lane markings, from the perspective image for generating a set of feature coordinates, in particular lane marking coordinates. The system generates a plurality of pairs of feature coordinates, each pair defining a straight line, and estimates a lane curvature on the basis of a subset of the pairs of feature coordinates. For each pair a straight line defined by the pair intersects a predefined target portion of the perspective image, the predefined target portion including a plurality of possible positions of a vanishing point.
