A method for providing orientation independent face detection may include generating multiple mosaic images from an input image in which each of the multiple mosaic images has a different scale, employing a plurality of differently oriented edge detectors to perform edge detection on the multiple mosaic images including combining edges of the multiple mosaic images having the different scales, and performing face detection in regions corresponding to the differently oriented edge detectors based on respective feature maps produced by the differently oriented edge detectors. An apparatus and computer program product corresponding to the method are also provided.

Various methods for feature extraction using local primitive code are provided. One example method includes determining an origin block within an image, an arc, an arc orientation, and a distance between the origin block and the arc. In this regard, the origin block may include one or more pixels of the image. The example method also includes determining at least one arc block. In this regard, the arc block may be located on the arc and the arc may be located with respect to the origin block based on the arc orientation and the distance. Some or all of the at least one arc blocks may include one or more pixels of the image. The example method also includes determining at least one feature value based on attributes of the origin block and the at least one arc block. Similar and related example methods and example apparatuses are also provided.

Various methods for written mathematical expression analysis are provided. One method may include receiving written input where the written input is representative of a mathematical expression. The method may also include analyzing the written input to identify at least one operator and at least one operand and constructing an expression tree based at least in part on predefined symbol relationships, the at least one operator, and the at least one operand. Similar apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.

A system and method for using images captured from a digital camera to control navigation through a three-dimensional user interface. The sequence of images may be examined to identify feature points to be tracked through successive frames of the images captured by the camera. A plurality of classifiers may be used to discern shift from rotation gestures, based on expected behavior of feature points in the image when the camera is shifted or rotated in position. The various classifiers may generate voting values for shift and rotation gestures, and the system can use historical gesture information to assist in categorizing a current gesture.

An apparatus for providing multi-feature based sampling for relevance feedback may include a user interface element. The user interface element may be configured to receive a query image, provide a first set of images determined to be relevant with respect to the query image, and provide a second set of images in which each image of the second set of images comprises a first relevance determination with respect to a first feature of an image and a second relevance determination for at least a second feature of the image. Each image of at least the second set of images may include an associated user interface item to enable a user to provide relevance feedback with respect to each image of the second set of images.
摘要:
A user of a camera equipped communication terminal is aided by the use of the invention when, e.g., dialing a phone number, sending a message to a recipient associated with the phone number, or simply store the phone number in a contact database in the terminal. The camera is pointed in the direction of a surface on which a sequence of symbols presumed to be a telephone number is written. The field of view is aimed using the guiding pattern and, e.g. by pressing a button or selecting an action from a menu, the symbol sequence is recorded in an image. The image, i.e. a sub-image containing the sequence of symbols, is then subjected to optical character recognition (OCR) processing that interprets the sequence of symbols as a telephone number to be used in an application that performs the dialing, message sending or storage into the contact database.

A system and method for statistical bar code reading for electronic devices having a camera. After a bar code is captured by the camera, a one-dimensional wave form is created based upon the captured bar code. A feature vector is created from the one-dimensional wave form, and the feature vector is compared to a plurality of reference vectors. An algorithm is used to select the reference vector that is most similar to the feature vector in order to correctly identify the captured bar code.

Apparatus, a method and a computer program are provided. The apparatus includes: at least one processor; and at least one memory storing computer program instructions, the at least one processor being configured to execute the computer program instructions to cause the apparatus at least to perform: controlling a touch sensitive display to display a first graphical item at a first position and a second graphical item at a second position, the second graphical item being separated from the first graphical item by a first distance; detecting a first user digit at the first position and a second user digit at the second position; reducing the first distance by moving at least one of the first and second graphical items across the touch sensitive display, in response to detecting movement, across the touch sensitive display, of at least one of the first and second user digits; and controlling the touch sensitive display to display a third graphical item, after determining the first distance has been reduced such that the first graphical item is proximate the second graphical item.
摘要:
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided in order to augment an index image generated by a near eye display in order to more clearly present at least a portion of the index image. In the context of a method, a position of the mobile terminal relative to an index image generated by a near eye display is determined. The method also determines an image to be presented by the mobile terminal based upon the index image and the position of the mobile terminal relative to the index image. The method also causes the image to be presented by the mobile terminal. A corresponding apparatus and a computer program product are also provided.
