摘要： A method of up-sampling binary images for segmentation is described. In an embodiment, digital images are down-sampled before segmentation. The resulting initial binary segmentation, which has a lower resolution than the original image, is then up-sampled and smoothed to generate an interim non-binary solution which has a higher resolution than the initial binary segmentation. The final binary segmentation for the image is then computed from the interim non-binary solution based on a threshold. This method does not use the original image data in inferring the final binary segmentation solution from the initial binary segmentation. In an embodiment, the method may be applied to all images and in another embodiment, the method may be used for images which comprise a large number of pixels in total or in single dimension and smaller images may not be down-sampled before segmentation.

摘要： Image processing using geodesic forests is described. In an example, a geodesic forest engine determines geodesic shortest-path distances between each image element and a seed region specified in the image in order to form a geodesic forest data structure. The geodesic distances take into account gradients in the image of a given image modality such as intensity, color, or other modality. In some embodiments, a 1D processing engine carries out 1D processing along the branches of trees in the geodesic forest data structure to form a processed image. For example, effects such as ink painting, edge-aware texture flattening, contrast-aware image editing, forming animations using geodesic forests and other effects are achieved using the geodesic forest data structure. In some embodiments the geodesic forest engine uses a four-part raster scan process to achieve real-time processing speeds and parallelization is possible in many of the embodiments.

摘要： Parallel processing for distance transforms is described. In an embodiment a raster scan algorithm is used to compute a distance transform such that each image element of a distance image is assigned a distance value. This distance value is a shortest distance from the image element to the seed region. In an embodiment two threads execute in parallel with a first thread carrying out a forward raster scan over the distance image and a second thread carrying out a backward raster scan over the image. In an example, a thread pauses when a cross-over condition is met until the other thread meets the condition after which both threads continue. In embodiments distances may be computed in Euclidean space or along geodesics defined on a surface. In an example, four threads execute two passes in parallel with each thread carrying out a raster scan over a different quarter of the image.

摘要： A method of geodesic image and video processing is proposed. In an embodiment, the method uses a geodesic distance transform to construct an image filter. The filter can be used in a variety of image editing operations such as segmentation, denoising, texture smoothing, image stitching and cartooning. In one embodiment, the method may be made efficient by utilizing parallelism of the algorithm to carry out processing steps on at least two processing cores concurrently. This efficiency may enable high-resolution images and video to be processed at ‘real time’ rates without the need for specialist hardware.

摘要： Using in-scene editing, an added title, or object, moves as the camera moves through the imaged scene. Previously this has been complex to achieve, requiring expert users to explicitly align 3D coordinate systems in the image sequence and on the added title or object. For example, this has been used to add 3D objects into live-action footage in big-budget movies or advertising. A simple, easy to use system is described for achieving in-scene editing. A user specifies projection constraints by making 2D actions on one or more images in the image sequence. A 3D motion trajectory is computed for a 3D object model on the basis of the specified projection constraints and a smoothness indicator. Using the computed trajectory the 3D object model is added to the image sequence. Projection constraints may be added, amended or deleted to position the 3D object model and/or to animate it.

摘要： Image completion using scene geometry is described, for example, to remove marks from digital photographs or complete regions which are blank due to editing. In an embodiment an image depicting, from a viewpoint, a scene of textured objects has regions to be completed. In an example, geometry of the scene is estimated from a depth map and the geometry used to warp the image so that at least some surfaces depicted in the image are fronto-parallel to the viewpoint. An image completion process is guided using distortion applied during the warping. For example, patches used to fill the regions are selected on the basis of distortion introduced by the warping. In examples where the scene comprises regions having only planar surfaces the warping process comprises rotating the image. Where the scene comprises non-planar surfaces, geodesic distances between image elements may be scaled to flatten the non-planar surfaces.

摘要： A system for multi-modal mapping of images is described. Embodiments are described where the image mapping system is used for visualizing high dynamic range images such as medical images, satellite images, high dynamic range photographs and the like and also for compressing such images. In examples, high bit-depth images are tone-mapped for display on equipment of lower bit-depth without loss of detail. In embodiments, the image mapping system computes statistics describing an input image and fits a multi-modal model to those statistics efficiently. In embodiments, the multi-modal model is a Gaussian mixture model and a plurality of sigmoid functions corresponding to the multi-modal model are obtained. In an embodiment the sigmoid functions are added to form a tone-mapping function which is used to transform a high bit-depth image such as 16 or 12 bits per pixel to a low bit-depth image such as 8 bits per pixel.

摘要： Space skipping for multi-dimensional image rendering is described. In an embodiment a ray-casting engine is used to form a two dimensional image from an at least three dimensional image volume by computing rays extending from a camera location, through the two dimensional image and into the volume. For example, a space skipping logic is used to clip the rays such that computationally expensive aspects of ray-casting only need to be performed along the clipped rays. For example a volume pyramid is formed by repeatedly reducing the resolution of the volume data. In an example, each ray is intersected with the lowest resolution volume of the pyramid and clipped using data from that volume. In examples, the clipping is then repeated at higher resolutions in order to clip the ray closely to non-transparent voxels in the volume and optimize the task of rendering the image.
