摘要:
A method of recognizing the environment of an image from an image and position information associated with the image includes acquiring the image and its associated position information; using the position information to acquire an aerial image correlated to the position information; identifying the environment of the image from the acquired aerial image; and storing the environment of the image in association with the image for subsequent use.

In a method and digital camera, an initial set of evaluation images are captured. A plurality of characteristics of the initial set of evaluation images are assessed to provide a first assessment. The characteristics include subject motion between the initial set of evaluation images. When the subject motion is in excess of a predetermined threshold, a final capture state of the camera is set responsive to the first assessment. When the subject motion is less than the predetermined threshold, the evaluation images are analyzed to provide analysis results and the final capture state of the camera is set responsive to the first assessment and the analysis results.
摘要:
A method of providing at least one recommended view to a user at a current geographic location that the user can use in composing images, comprising using a processor to provide the following steps using the geographic location of the user to obtain, from a database, images that were previously taken around the current geographic location; grouping the obtained images into clusters that correspond to distinct scenes; selecting a recommended view for each distinct scene using an image; and presenting the recommended view(s) to the user for consideration in composing images.
摘要:
In a method and digital camera, initial evaluation images of a scene are captured with the camera. A change in scene brightness between two or more of the evaluation images is computed. When the scene brightness change is outside a predetermined brightness range, a metric of scene-to-capture mismatch in the evaluation images is determined. When the brightness change and the metric are both outside predetermined ranges, the camera is shifted to a second capture state prior to the capturing of one or more additional evaluation images. In either case, a final camera state is determined using available evaluation images and one or more final images are captured with the camera in the final camera state.
摘要:
A method for determining a candidate lesion region within an ultrasound image. The method includes the steps of: accessing a digital ultrasound image of anatomical tissue; segmenting spatially contiguous pixels in the ultrasound image into a plurality of regions in accordance with substantially similar intensity values and spatial smoothness constraints; and selecting, from the plurality of regions, one or more candidate lesion regions having an intensity value lower than a pre-determined intensity value. In one arrangement, the one or more candidate lesion region is classified into at least one of the following classes: benign, malignant, or unknown.
摘要:
A method for improving scene classification of a sequence of digital images is disclosed herein. Such a method may include providing a sequence of images captured in temporal succession; (b) classifying each of the images individually based on information contained in the image alone to generate a first image classification; and (c) imposing a pre-determined temporal context model on the sequence of images to generate a final image classification for each image in the sequence.
摘要:
A method of detecting sky in a digital color image having pixels is disclosed. The method includes identifying pixels from the digital color image representing an initial sky region; developing a model based on the identified sky pixels, wherein such model is a mathematical function that has inputs of pixel position and outputs of color; and using the model to operate on the digital color image to classify additional pixels not included in the initial sky region as sky.
摘要:
A method of classifying regions in a digital image or video captured by an image capture device includes providing a geographic location determining device associated with the image capture device; using the location determining device to measure the image capture location at substantially the time that the digital image or video was captured; and classifying regions in the captured digital image or video into one or more classes based on the image-capture location.

In a method and digital camera, an initial set of evaluation images are captured. A plurality of characteristics of the initial set of evaluation images are assessed to provide a first assessment. The characteristics include subject motion between the initial set of evaluation images. When the subject motion is in excess of a predetermined threshold, a final capture state of the camera is set responsive to the first assessment. When the subject motion is less than the predetermined threshold, the evaluation images are analyzed to provide analysis results and the final capture state of the camera is set responsive to the first assessment and the analysis results.
摘要:
In a method and digital camera, an initial pair of evaluation images are captured. A plurality of characteristics of the initial pair of evaluation images are assessed to provide a first assessment. The characteristics include subject motion between the initial pair of evaluation images. When the subject motion is in excess of a predetermined threshold, a final capture state of the camera is set responsive to the first assessment. When the subject motion is less than the predetermined threshold, the evaluation images are analyzed to provide analysis results and the final capture state of the camera is set responsive to the first assessment and the analysis results.
