Abstract:
Disclosed are embodiments of systems and methods to generate background and foreground images for a document, which enables high-quality and high-ratio document compression. In embodiments, high-accuracy layer processing enables text enhancement, paper color removal, and many other advanced image analysis and processing. Embodiments of the systems support several operation modes and its many parameters, such as layer compression ratios, image segmentation, and modulized image processing, may be adjusted to generate optimal compressed files for different purposes.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are disclosed for processing image frames to reduce the bandwidth requirements. Embodiment of the present invention may include mode-specific image frame rendering in photorealistic and non-photorealistic modes, such as outline and cartoon modes. In embodiments, update regions may be identified and reduced by an edge position mask. In embodiments, update regions may be bounded by rectangles and such regions may be reduced in number by merging regions together using various no-cost or cost approaches. To improve compressibility, regions to be transmitted that do not require updating at the receiver may be encoded as transparent.
