    摘要: Image deblurring with blurred/noisy image pairs is described. In one implementation, a system combines a blurred image with a corresponding noisy image of the same subject to create a high-quality deblurred image. The blurred/noisy image pair can be acquired by an inexpensive hand-held camera, e.g., in unfavorable low light conditions. An exemplary iterative process uses the blurred image and the noisy image at each step to produce the high-quality image. First, the system estimates the blur kernel of the blurred image using information from both the blurred and noisy images. Then, the system performs residual image deconvolution, which favors suppression of ringing artifacts. Finally, the system applies gain-controlled deconvolution to suppress remaining ringing artifacts in smooth image regions. The system iterates these steps to obtain the final high-quality image.

    摘要: Digital video effects are described. In one aspect, a foreground object in a video stream is identified. The video stream comprises multiple image frames. The foreground object is modified by rendering a 3-dimensional (3-D) visual feature over the foreground object for presentation to a user in a modified video stream. Pose of the foreground object is tracked in 3-D space across respective ones of the image frames to identify when the foreground object changes position in respective ones of the image frames. Based on this pose tracking, aspect ratio of the 3-D visual feature is adaptively modified and rendered over the foreground object in corresponding image frames for presentation to the user in the modified video stream.

    摘要: The present video tracking technique outputs a Maximum A Posterior (MAP) solution for a target object based on two object templates obtained from a start and an end keyframe of a whole state sequence. The technique first minimizes the whole state space of the sequence by generating a sparse set of local two-dimensional modes in each frame of the sequence. The two-dimensional modes are converted into three-dimensional points within a three-dimensional volume. The three-dimensional points are clustered using a spectral clustering technique where each cluster corresponds to a possible trajectory segment of the target object. If there is occlusion in the sequence, occlusion segments are generated so that an optimal trajectory of the target object can be obtained.

    摘要: Systems and methods provide drag-and-drop pasting for seamless image composition. In one implementation, a user casually outlines a region of a source image that contains a visual object to be pasted into a target image. An exemplary system automatically calculates a new boundary within this region, such that when pasted at this boundary, visual seams are minimized. The system applies a shortest path calculation to find the optimal pasting boundary. The best path has minimal color variation along its length, thus avoiding structure and visual objects in the target image and providing the best chance for seamlessness. Poisson image editing is applied across this optimized boundary to blend colors. When the visual object being pasted has fine structure at its border that could be truncated by the Poisson editing, the exemplary system integrates the alpha matte of the visual object into the Poisson equations to protect the fine structure.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed to enable generation of a high-resolution image from any generic low-resolution image. In one described implementation, a method includes extracting, at a training phase, a plurality of primal sketch priors from training data. At a synthesis phase, the plurality of primal sketch priors are utilized to improve a low-resolution image by replacing one or more low-frequency primitives extracted from the low-resolution image with corresponding ones of the plurality of primal sketch priors.

    摘要: Exemplary systems and methods segment a foreground from a background image in a video sequence. In one implementation, a system refines a segmentation boundary between the foreground and the background image by attenuating background contrast while preserving contrast of the segmentation boundary itself, providing an accurate background cut of live video in real time. A substitute background may then be merged with the segmented foreground within the live video. The system can apply an adaptive background color mixture model to improve segmentation of foreground from background under various background changes, such as camera movement, illumination change, and movement of small objects in the background.

    摘要: The alignment of a sharp image of a subject and a blurred image of the same subject is disclosed. For example, one disclosed embodiment provides a method of determining a series of trial images. The method comprises applying a corresponding series of coordinate transforms to the sharp image, the series of coordinate transforms differing with respect to one or more of a rotational operation and a scaling operation. The method further comprises computing a series blur kernels corresponding to the series of trial images, each blur kernel mapping a trial image from the series of trial images to the blurred image. The method further includes locating a sparsest blur kernel in the series of blur kernels, and identifying one or more of the rotational operation and the scaling operation of the coordinate transform mapping the trial image corresponding to the sparsest blur kernel to the blurred image.
