摘要:
An object area in an image is determined, and an area image representing the object area is superimposed on the object in the image. In this image, an area to be photographed with high quality is specified using the area image, and a control parameter for controlling an image pickup unit is adjusted so that the quality level of an image within the area to be photographed with high quality is increased to a desired level. Thus, when photographing an image, an area to be photographed with high quality can be easily set in the image.

This invention provides a matching point extracting method and an apparatus therefor, for extracting the matching points among plural images based on the template matching method. The method consists of forming mutually different plural templates from an arbitrary one of plural images, and determining the matching points in the plural images, in an image area showing a specified condition, by utilizing one of thus formed plural templates, thereby enabling highly prescise extraction of the matching points over the entire image area, without difference between the object and the background in the image.

This invention relates to a method to manufacture cell-cans by DI can method, by manufacturing a bottomed cylindrical cup-shaped intermediate product from a sheet material of which both surfaces are nickel plated and annealed in an atmosphere of inert gas making the metal nickel layer thickness and the hardness at predetermined values, then ironing the intermediate product at a predetermined ironing rate, securing a thickness of the metal nickel layer of more than 1.0 .mu.m and a Vickers hardness of more than HV 200 on the side wall of finished cell-cans. By this, conventional defect problems due to the cracks generated on the intermediate product can be solved completely and the problem of hair-lines formed on the surface of finished cell-can can be eliminated.

A pattern recognition apparatus that recognizes a data attribute of input data calculates correlation values of feature quantities of corresponding local patterns between the input data and dictionary data for each of a plurality of dictionary data prepared for each data attribute, combines, for each data attribute, the calculated correlation values of local patterns of each dictionary datum to acquire a set of correlation values of each data attribute, integrates correlation values included in each set of correlation values of each data attribute to calculate a similarity of the input data for each data attribute, and identifies the data attribute of the input data based on the calculated similarity.

The present invention facilitates the setting of a condition for the execution of predetermined processing and enables the execution of processing conforming to a user's intention. In an image processing apparatus, a predetermined object is detected in an image selected based on an instruction from a user, a determination is made regarding an attribute of the detected object, and the determined attribute is set as an execution condition used when executing predetermined processing on an image.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus includes an image input unit which inputs image data containing a face, a face position detection unit which detects, from the image data, the position of a specific part of the face, and a facial expression recognition unit which detects a feature point of the face from the image data on the basis of the detected position of the specific part and determines facial expression of the face on the basis of the detected feature point. The feature point is detected at a detection accuracy higher than detection of the position of the specific part. Detection of the position of the specific part is robust to a variation in the detection target.

An image including a face is input (S201), a plurality of local features are detected from the input image, a region of a face in the image is specified using the plurality of detected local features (S202), and an expression of the face is determined on the basis of differences between the detection results of the local features in the region of the face and detection results which are calculated in advance as references for respective local features in the region of the face (S204).
摘要:
In an image conversion method, a value which reflects the mutual relationship between the classes of pixel patterns each formed from a pixel classified as one of a plurality of classes and peripheral pixels is set as a converted value corresponding to each of the plurality of classes, a pixel of interest is sequentially selected from the input image, and a pixel pattern formed from the selected pixel of interest and a predetermined number of pixels around it is classified as one of the plurality of classes in accordance with a neighboring pattern obtained based on the relationship between the value of the pixel of interest and the values of peripheral pixels located at predetermined relative positions with respect to the pixel of interest. The value of the pixel of interest is converted into a converted value set for a class to which the pixel of interest has been classified.
摘要:
An eye region is detected, in the detected eye region, the region of an iris outline is extended inward, and a hollow region surrounded by the extended region is detected as a poor hue quality region. An outline of the poor hue quality region is shaped by approximating the outline to one of a circle and an ellipse. The hue of the shaped poor hue quality region is corrected on the basis of color information obtained from a neighboring region inside an iris outline.
摘要:
A battery case is formed by drawing a metallic plate thin to form a cylindrical body 10 having a closed end and cutting away part of the cylindrical body 10 at an opening 11 thereof in the direction perpendicular to an axis of the cylindrical body 10. The cutting of the cylindrical body 10 is carried out by moving a second blade 30 arranged outside the cylindrical body 10 relatively toward the axis of the cylindrical body with a first blade kept abutting the inner circumference of the cylindrical body 10. As a result, an inward burr 13 extending in the direction perpendicular to the side face of the cylindrical body 10 is formed on a cut surface 12 of the cylindrical body 10, but the burr 13 is prevented from entering the battery case.
