Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed to personalize image capture operations of imaging equipment according to models that correspond uniquely to subjects being imaged. According to these techniques, a subject's face may be detected from a first image supplied by an image source and a first model of the subject may be developed from the detected face. The first model of the subject may be compared to another model of the subject developed from other images. Image adjustment parameters may be generated from a comparison of these models, which may control image adjustment techniques that are applied to the newly captured image of the subject. In this manner, aspects of the present disclosure may generate image capture operations that are tailored to characteristics of the subjects being imaged and avoid artifacts that otherwise could cause image degradation.

Abstract: The disclosure pertains to techniques for image processing. One such technique comprises a method for image selection, comprising: obtaining a sequence of images, detecting a first face in one or more images of the sequence of images, determining a first location for the detected first face in each of the images having the detected first face, generating a heat map based on the first location of the detected first face in each of the images of the sequences of images, determining a face quality score for the detected first face for each of the one or more images having the detected first face, determining a peak face quality score for the detected first face based in part on the face quality score and the generated heat map, and selecting a first image of the sequence of images, corresponding with the peak face quality score for the detected first face.
