20130138657 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CLASSIFICATION OF OBJECTS - In accordance with various example embodiments, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided. A method comprises accessing a gallery comprising a plurality of classes, determining distances between classes of the plurality of classes, and determining thresholds for one or more classes of the gallery for classifying test objects in the classes, wherein threshold for a class is determined based on at least one distance of the class from at least one remaining class of the plurality of classes. The apparatus comprises at least one processor and at least one memory, configured to, cause the apparatus to perform accessing a gallery comprising a plurality of classes, determining distances between classes of the plurality of classes, and determining thresholds for classes of the gallery for classifying test objects in the classes, wherein threshold for a class is determined based on distances of the class from remaining classes of the gallery. | 05-30-2013 |
20140022337 | ROBUST TWO DIMENSIONAL PANORAMA GENERATION USING LIGHT FIELD CAMERA CAPTURE - A method, apparatus, and computer program product for generating a seamless and error-free panorama image using a selective set of views from a multi-view image from each of the several captured light field (LF) images. The method identifies the view and corresponding image for each captured LF image which has the same or closely located center of projection with the views of neighboring LF images. Image registration and warping techniques are applied across the images and the parallax error is calculated which indicates the closeness of their center of projections. The view from each LF captured image with minimal parallax error is selected and stitched together with the other views identified as having minimal parallax error. | 01-23-2014 |
20140028878 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PROCESSING OF MULTIMEDIA CONTENT - In accordance with an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method comprises receiving a first image of a scene, the first image comprising angular information associated with the scene. The first image has a first image resolution. A second image of the scene is received. The second image has a second image resolution, wherein the second image resolution is greater than the first image resolution. A pre-processed first image is generated based on the angular information and a selection of a first region of interest (ROI) in the first image. A processed first image of the scene is generated based on a processing of a second ROI in the pre-processed first image corresponding to the first ROI in the first image, and the second image. The processing is configured to render the second image resolution to the second ROI in the pre-processed first image. | 01-30-2014 |
20140147050 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR GENERATING SUPER-RESOLVED IMAGES - In an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating receipt of a light-field image, determining one or more depth levels in the light-field image and generating a plurality of images from the light-field image. The method includes determining one or more registration matrices corresponding to the one or more depth levels between an image and one or more remaining images of the plurality of images. The method includes performing a super-resolution of the image and the one or more remaining images based on the one or more registration matrices to generate a super-resolved image of the image. | 05-29-2014 |
20140184640 | Methods, Apparatuses and Computer Program Products for Generating Panoramic Images Using Depth Map Data - An apparatus for generating a panoramic image(s) may include a processor and memory storing executable computer code causing the apparatus to at least perform operations including generating a panoramic image(s) based on performing registration on at least two images associated with depth map data and determining an overlap region(s) between the two images within first and second items of depth map data. The computer program code may further cause the apparatus to label the overlap region(s) within the first or second item of depth map data based on generating a virtual seam(s) connecting portions of the two images to generate a composite image. The portions correspond to image data within first and second items of depth map data. The computer program code may further cause the apparatus to blend the seam of the composite image to obtain the panoramic image. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided. | 07-03-2014 |
20140219575 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PROCESSING OF IMAGES - In accordance with an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method comprises determining a plurality of first pixels having resemblance with a second pixel associated with an image based on a depth information of the image. The method further comprises replacing the second pixel by at least one first pixel of the plurality of first pixels based on a determination that the at least one first pixel is not associated with the at least one image defect. | 08-07-2014 |
20150181124 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR IMAGE REFOCUSING FOR LIGHT-FIELD IMAGES - In an example embodiment, a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating receipt of a plurality of light-field images of a scene captured in a burst capture by a light-field camera. The method includes determining shifts between images of the plurality of light-field images, where the shifts between the images of the plurality of light-field images are associated with shake of the light-field camera while capturing the plurality of light-field images. The method includes generating a plurality of depth maps for the plurality of light-field images, and generating a set of view images of the scene based on the plurality of light-field images and the plurality of depth maps. The method includes generating a refocus image by combining the set of view images based at least on the shifts between the images of the plurality of light-field images. | 06-25-2015 |
