20130301952 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ALIGNMENT OF FRAMES - In an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes accessing feature points in a first frame of a content, and aligning a second frame to the first frame based on determining a transformation matrix between the second frame and the first frame based on matching the feature points in the first frame with a corresponding feature points in the second frame. The method further includes aligning at least one subsequent frame from the second frame to the first frame by generating a modified first frame based on a transformation matrix between a preceding frame of a subsequent frame and the first frame, and determining a transformation matrix between the subsequent frame and the first frame based on matching a set of feature points in the modified feature points with corresponding feature points in the subsequent frame. | 11-14-2013 |
20140086452 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PERIODIC MOTION DETECTION IN MULTIMEDIA CONTENT - In an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating selection of a region of interest (ROI) in a plurality of frames of a multimedia content. The ROI is associated with a motion of at least one object. An object mobility data matrix associated with the ROI is determined in the plurality of frames. The object mobility data matrix is indicative of a difference in motion of the at least one object in the plurality of frames. A projection of the object mobility data matrix is determined on a line. The motion of the at least one object in the ROI is determined across the plurality of frames to as a periodic motion or a non-periodic motion based on the projection of the object mobility data matrix. | 03-27-2014 |
20140152762 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PROCESSING MEDIA CONTENT - In accordance with an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method comprises determining a set of first-side edge portions and a set of second-side edge portions associated with a plurality of images. A first plurality of edge pairs is determined between the set of first-side edge portions and the set of second-side edge portions. A first set of weights are assigned to the first plurality of edge pairs based at least on a pair-wise matching between the set of first-side edge portions and the set of second-side edge portions. The plurality of images are arranged in a first sequence based on the first set of weights. | 06-05-2014 |
20140379704 | Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product for Management of Media Files - Provided herein are a method, apparatus and computer program product for the management of media files, for summarizing groups of media files, and presenting summarized groups of media files to a user. Example methods may include accessing a plurality of media files, obtaining identification of objects within each media file, and determining the minimum set cover of media files from the plurality of media files, where the minimum set cover of media files includes at least one media file comprising each object identified. The method may include determining a weight of each media file, where determining the weight includes analyzing the metadata of each media file. Example methods may also include identifying a dominant set from the plurality of media files, where the dominant set includes at least one dominant media file, and identifying at least one non-dominant media file from the plurality of media files. | 12-25-2014 |
20150078556 | Method, Apparatus and Computer Program for Generating an Spatial Audio Output Based on an Spatial Audio Input - A method, apparatus and computer program for: receiving a spatial audio input; determining a direction of interest from the spatial audio input; and generating a spatial audio output dependent on the spatial audio input and the direction of interest. | 03-19-2015 |
20150078669 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR OBJECT DETECTION AND SEGMENTATION - In an example embodiment, a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating receipt of a first image and a second image of a scene comprising one or more objects. The method includes detecting the objects in the first image by detecting object point of the objects in the first image. The method includes detecting the object points of the objects in the second image based on detection of the object points of the objects in the first image. Detection of an object point in the second image that corresponds to an object point of the first image comprises searching for the object point on an epipolar line in the second image corresponding to the object point of the first image. The method includes determining disparity values between the objects points in the first image and the object points in the second image. | 03-19-2015 |
20150248769 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DISPARITY MAP ESTIMATION OF STEREO IMAGES - In an example embodiment a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating receipt of a first and a second image. A first and a second aggregated cost volume associated with pixels of the first and the second images are determined for a plurality of disparity values. A first and a second disparity maps are generated based on the first and the second aggregated cost volume. A confidence map for disparity values of the first image is generated based on the first aggregated cost volume. One or more infinity regions in the first image are determined based on a number of confident pixels in color segments of the first image. A third disparity map is generated by determining filtered disparity values for the pixels of the first image where filtered disparity values for pixels of the one or more infinity regions are a pre-defined disparity value. | 09-03-2015 |
20150332472 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DISPARITY ESTIMATION IN IMAGES - In an example embodiment, a method, apparatus and computer program product are provided. The method includes facilitating receipt of an image of a scene and determining a graph based on connecting nodes of the image. The nodes are either pixels or superpixels of the image. The graph is determined by determining one or more connections of a node to one or more nodes belonging to a pre-defined image region around the node in the image. The connections are associated with edge weights that are determined based on at least one of similarity parameters and spatial distances between the node and the one or more nodes. The method includes determining disparity values at the nodes of the image based at least on performing tree based aggregation of a cost volume on the graph, where the cost volume is associated with the image and at least one view image of the scene. | 11-19-2015 |
