摘要:
In various implementations, a computing device is configured to provide a live preview of salient contours generated on a live digital video feed. In particular, a designer can use a computing device with a camera, such as a smart phone, to view a real-time preview of salient contours generated from edges detected in frames of a live digital video feed prior to capture, thereby eliminating the unpredictability of salient contours generated from a previously captured image. In some implementations, the salient contours are overlaid on a greyscale conversion of the live digital video feed for improved processing and visual contrast. Other implementations modify aspects of edge-detecting or post-processing filters for improved performance on mobile computing devices.

A method, system and computer program for categorizing heart diseases is presented. An example method includes receiving a series of cardiac images of a heart, the cardiac images including a myocardium, and interior fibrous muscles of the heart. Cardiac images are segmented, into a myocardium segmentation showing an anatomical shape and a motion of the myocardium, and an interior fibrous muscles segmentation showing an anatomical shape and a motion of the interior fibrous muscles. The myocardium segmentation is converted into a regional characterization of the anatomical shape and motion of the myocardium. The interior fibrous muscles segmentation is converted to a regional characterization of the anatomical shape and motion of the interior fibrous muscles. Heart conditions are characterized based on the regional characterizations of the anatomical shape and the motion of the myocardium and the interior fibrous muscles.

Methods, systems, and computer program products for static image segmentation are provided herein. A method includes segmenting a static image containing a target object into multiple regions based on one or more visual features of the static image; analyzing video content containing the target object to determine a similarity metric across the multiple segmented regions based on motion information associated with each of the multiple segmented regions; and applying the similarity metric to the static image to identify two or more of the multiple segmented regions as being portions of the target object.

Systems and methods search pixels of source images and compare them to pixels of templates. Best matches correlate to objects in the image. That environmental conditions impact the appearance of objects, best matching scores suffer under poor lighting and other adverse conditions. Improving scores includes augmenting traditional correlation techniques with object features extracted from the source image and matching them to templates corresponding to the features. Certain embodiments contemplate corrupting pixels of image templates corresponding to objects with pixels extracted from the source image corresponding to features. Representative features include corners, edges, ridges, points/regions of interest, etc. Other embodiments note augmented correlation as a computing application and computing devices therefore, including cameras for capturing images and displaying results to users.

Methods and systems for detecting an object part location based on an extended date-driven detection. A specific relevance value between configurations of parts with respect to a set of training images annotated with annotating objects can be defined. A similarity learning algorithm can be applied with respect to the parts to obtain a similarity function based on the similarity between the part configurations. The similarity learning algorithm receives a set of positive pair having similar part configuration and a negative pair having different configuration and returns the similarity function that tends to assign a high score to new positive pair and a low score to negative pairs. A similarity between a new image and the training images can be measured utilizing the learned similarity function to obtain a neighbor image and a visible and/or non-visible part location with respect to the image can be predicted based on the neighbor image.

A structure extracting unit extracts a structure from a three-dimensional medical image, and a view point determining unit determines a view point position and a direction of line of sight of a virtual endoscopic image. An image generating unit calculates a distance between the view point position and the extracted structure, changes an opacity defined in a color template depending on the distance, and generates, from the three-dimensional medical image, a virtual endoscopic image containing the structure shown according to the color template with the changed opacity viewed from the view point position in the direction of line of sight. A display control unit displays the thus generated virtual endoscopic image on a WS display.
摘要:
A method generates a three-dimensional map of a region from successive images captured from different camera poses. The method includes a camera capturing images of the region; designating a subset of captured images as a set of keyframes each having respective sets of image position data representing image positions of landmark points detected as feature points in that image; for a newly captured image, generating a camera pose prediction; selecting an ordering of the landmark points; detecting whether an image region of the new image approximately matches an expected image position of a landmark point based on the predicted camera pose by detecting whether the image region is substantially identical to the image information associated with that landmark point; and refining the pose prediction from the detecting step. The selecting includes performing a statistical test on the landmark points and selecting the ordering according to the statistical test results.

According to an embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes an obtainer, a setter, a first calculator, a second calculator, and a third calculator. The obtainer obtains an image. The setter sets a plurality of first regions and a plurality of second regions on the image. Each of the first regions and the second regions includes two or more pixels, and at least one of the second regions is different in position or size from the first regions. The first calculator calculates first feature data representing an image feature of the first regions. The second calculator calculates second feature data which is a luminance gradient between the second regions. The third calculator calculates relative feature data representing a relative relationship between the first feature data and the second feature data.
