Methods and apparatus for adaptive trimap propagation. Methods are described that allow a trimap to be propagated from one frame to the next in a temporally coherent way. A radius-based method propagates automatically computed local trimap radii from frame to frame. A mesh-based method employs pins on the binary segmentation boundary and a mesh generated for the unknown region; the pins are tracked from one frame to the next according to an optical flow technique, the mesh is deformed from one frame to the next according to the movement of the pins, and the adaptive trimap is then warped according to the deformed mesh. These methods can be used separately, or the first method can be used to propagate some regions of the adaptive trimap, and the second method can be used to propagate other regions of the adaptive trimap.

Systems and methods for rolling shutter artifact repair are disclosed. For example, one disclosed method includes the steps of receiving two frames (F0, F2) of a video, identifying a first plurality of features in frame F0 and a second plurality of features in frame F2, determining movements of corresponding features in the first and second pluralities of features, generating a mesh based on the first and second pluralities of features and the movements, and generating a warped frame (F0′) based on the mesh

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for chatter reduction in video object segmentation using optical flow assisted gaussholding. An optical flow assisted gaussholding method may be applied to segmentation masks generated for a video sequence. For each frame of at least some frames in a video sequence, for each of one or more other frames prior to and one or more other frames after the current frame, optical flow is computed for the other frame in relation to the current frame and used to warp the contour of the segmentation mask of the other frame to generate warped segmentation mask for the other frames. The weighted average of the warpedsegmentation masks and the segmentation mask of the current frame is then computed; this weighted average may be blurred spatially, for example using a Gaussian filter. The initial smoothed mask may be thresholded to produce a binary smoothed mask.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for chatter reduction in video object segmentation using a variable bandwidth search region. A variable bandwidth search region generation method may be applied to a uniform search region to generate a variable bandwidth search region that reduces the search range for segmentation methods such as a graph cut method. The method may identify parts of the contour that are moving slowly, and reduce the search region bandwidth in those places to stabilize the segmentation. This method may determine a bandwidth for each of a plurality of local windows of an image according to an estimate of how much an object in the image has moved from a previous image. The method may blend the bandwidths for the plurality of local windows to generate a blended map. The method may then generate a variable bandwidth search region for an object according to the blended map.
摘要:
A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium for automatic segmentation of a video sequence. A segmentation shape prediction and a segmentation color model are determined for a current image of a video sequence based on existing segmentation information for at least one previous image of the video sequence. A segmentation of the current image is automatically generated based on a weighted combination of the segmentation shape prediction and the segmentation color model. The segmentation of the current image is stored in a memory medium.

A data collection and/or monitoring service residing at a client system collects and sends client system information to a backend system. The client system information is used to update a maintained repository of client system information that is associated with software installed at the client system. The maintained repository is used to determine one or more software update recommendations which are sent to the client system. In response to a trigger event, one or more software updates associated with the update recommendations are automatically downloaded and deployed at the client system. The download and deployment of software updates can be scheduled at the client system.

Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media for dynamic color flow modeling. A dynamic color flow model that incorporates motion estimation in a probabilistic fashion is described. By automatically and adaptively changing model parameters based on the inferred local motion uncertainty, the dynamic color flow model accurately and reliably models the object appearance, and improves the foreground color probability estimation when compared to conventional methods. The dynamic color flow model may, for example, be applied to both foreground and background layers (or to additional layers) for video object segmentation, obtaining significantly improved results when compared to conventional methods.

A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium for applying Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) to local image patches using an adaptive color lookup table. Per-channel color quantization may be performed to find representative colors for a local image patch. Each combination of the representative values corresponds to a representative color. The probabilities of the representative colors may be computed using a local GMM color model and stored to corresponding entries in an adaptive color lookup table. For every pixel in an image patch, the closest representative color may be found, and the corresponding probability may be retrieved from the lookup table and used for the pixel. The method may, for example, be applied to each local window in a method for automatically determining segmentation in a digital video image sequence to calculate the foreground probabilities for the pixels in a propagated classifier via a GMM.
