摘要: One or more embodiments provide method for image distortion correction including receiving, by multiple neurosynaptic core circuits, a set of inputs comprising image dimensions and pixel distortion coefficients for at least one image frame via at least one input core circuit. Each distorted pixel is mapped to zero or more undistorted pixels by processing the set of inputs corresponding to each pixel of the at least one image frame by the at least one input core circuit. Corresponding pixel intensity values of each distorted pixel are routed to output undistorted pixels for each image frame via the at least one output core circuit.

摘要: One or more embodiments provide a neurosynaptic circuit that includes multiple neurosynaptic core circuits that: perform image distortion correction by converting a source image to a destination image by: taking as input a sequence of image frames of a video with one or more channels per frame, and converting dimensions and pixel distortion coefficients of each frame as one or more corresponding neuronal firing events. Each distorted pixel is mapped to zero or more undistorted pixels by processing each neuronal firing event corresponding to each pixel of each image frame. Corresponding pixel intensity values of each distorted pixel are processed to output undistorted pixels for each image frame as neuronal firing events for a spike representation of the destination image.

摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide a method of visual saliency estimation comprising receiving an input sequence of image frames. Each image frame has one or more channels, and each channel has one or more pixels. The method further comprises, for each channel of each image frame, generating corresponding neural spiking data based on a pixel intensity of each pixel of the channel, generating a corresponding multi-scale data structure based on the corresponding neural spiking data, and extracting a corresponding map of features from the corresponding multi-scale data structure. The multi-scale data structure comprises one or more data layers, wherein each data layer represents a spike representation of pixel intensities of a channel at a corresponding scale. The method further comprises encoding each map of features extracted as neural spikes.
