Abstract: A method for correcting blur effects is presented. The method includes generating a plurality of images from a camera, synthesizing blurred images from sharp image counterparts to generate training data to train a structure-and-motion-aware convolutional neural network (CNN), and predicting a camera motion and a depth map from a single blurred image by employing the structure-and-motion-aware CNN to remove blurring from the single blurred image.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product are provided for pose estimation. The method includes receiving, by a processor, a plurality of images from one or more cameras. The method also includes generating, by the processor with a feature extraction convolutional neural network (CNN), a feature map for each of the plurality of images. The method additionally includes estimating, by the processor with a feature weighting network, a score map from a pair of the feature maps. The method further includes predicting, by the processor with a pose estimation CNN, a pose from the score map and a combined feature map. The method also includes controlling an operation of a processor-based machine to change a state of the processor-based machine, responsive to the pose.

Abstract: Systems and methods for camera self-calibration are provided. The method includes receiving real uncalibrated images, and estimating, using a camera self-calibration network, multiple predicted camera parameters corresponding to the real uncalibrated images. Deep supervision is implemented based on a dependence order between the plurality of predicted camera parameters to place supervision signals across multiple layers according to the dependence order. The method also includes determining calibrated images using the real uncalibrated images and the predicted camera parameters.

Abstract: A system and method are provided. The system includes an image capture device configured to capture an actual image depicting an object. The system also includes a processor. The processor is configured to render, based on a set of 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) models, a set of synthetic images with corresponding intermediate shape concept labels. The processor is also configured to form a multi-layer Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) which jointly models multiple intermediate shape concepts, based on the rendered synthetic images. The processor is further configured to perform an intra-class appearance variation-aware and occlusion-aware 3D object parsing on the actual image by applying the CNN to the actual image to output an image pair including a 2D geometric structure and a 3D geometric structure of the object depicted in the actual image.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method executed by at least one processor for applying rolling shutter (RS)-aware spatially varying differential homography fields for simultaneous RS distortion removal and image stitching is presented. The method includes inputting two consecutive frames including RS distortions from a video stream, performing keypoint detection and matching to extract correspondences between the two consecutive frames, feeding the correspondences between the two consecutive frames into an RS-aware differential homography estimation component to filter out outlier correspondences, sending inlier correspondences to an RS-aware spatially varying differential homography field estimation component to compute an RS-aware spatially varying differential homography field, and using the RS-aware spatially varying differential homography field in an RS stitching and correction component to produce stitched images with removal of the RS distortions.

Abstract: A method for jointly removing rolling shutter (RS) distortions and blur artifacts in a single input RS and blurred image is presented. The method includes generating a plurality of RS blurred images from a camera, synthesizing RS blurred images from a set of GS sharp images, corresponding GS sharp depth maps, and synthesized RS camera motions by employing a structure-and-motion-aware RS distortion and blur rendering module to generate training data to train a single-view joint RS correction and deblurring convolutional neural network (CNN), and predicting an RS rectified and deblurred image from the single input RS and blurred image by employing the single-view joint RS correction and deblurring CNN.
