摘要:
The invention relates to a method for estimating an image relation model for two or more related images based on a plurality of point correspondences. The method includes using a weighted random sampling algorithm to repeatedly draw subsets of point correspondences for generating model estimates, evaluating said model estimates for the full plurality of the point correspondences, and updating weights associated with each of the point correspondences in the random sampling algorithm based on information obtained in said evaluating.

A curved wavelet transform and a related image/video compression system are disclosed. The curved wavelet transform (CWT) is carried out by applying one-dimensional (1-D) wavelet filters along curves, rather than along only horizontal and vertical directions. The image/video compression system includes a curve determination unit, a curved wavelet transform unit, a wavelet coefficient quantization unit, a wavelet coefficient coding unit, and a curve coding unit. The quantization and coding of the wavelet coefficients are related to the curves. In one embodiment, recursive wavelet filters are used for inverse wavelet decomposition. The system provides higher compression capability than conventional wavelet-based image compression systems.

A method for temporal interpolation of an image sequence using object-based image analysis is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of image segmentation for partitioning a known image into objects, motion estimation, object-based motion field processing, determination of object depth order, detection of covered areas and newly exposed areas, adaptive interpolation using motion projection, and graceful degradation for alleviating remaining visible artifacts. The method produces interpolated images of high quality in real time for every type of image areas including fast moving objects, covered areas, and newly exposed areas.

Betaine surfactants of formula (I) and preparation methods and uses thereof are provided. The surfactant can decrease the interfacial surface tension of crude oil till 10−3 mN/m, have the capabilities of antiheating (130° C.), antimineralizing and antidiluting, and can be used in the field of tertiary oil recovery.

Methods of image interpolation disclosed herein include a method of irregular-grid expanded-block weighted motion compensation (IEWMC) and a method of block-wise directional hole interpolation (BDHI). The IEWMC can be used with unidirectional motion or disparity trajectories. The IEWMC can be applied in both forward and backward directions, and the interpolated images resulting from IEWMC application can be superimposed, or averaged, to reduce the blocking artifacts and handle the holes and overlaps. The BDHI takes into account the orientation of local edges and textures when filling the holes, which results in a sharper interpolated image.
