    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for automatically aligning a 3D camera with a 2D background image. An automated image analysis can be performed on the 2D background image, and a classifier can predict whether the automated image analysis is accurate within a selected confidence level. As such, a feature can be enabled that allows a user to automatically align the 3D camera with the 2D background image. For example, where the automated analysis detects a horizon and one or more vanishing points from the background image, the 3D camera can be automatically transformed to align with the detected horizon and to point at a detected horizon-located vanishing point. In some embodiments, 3D objects in a 3D scene can be pivoted and the 3D camera dollied forward or backwards to reduce changes to the framing of the 3D composition resulting from the 3D camera transformation.

    Abstract: Variable patch shape synthesis techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a plurality of patches are computed from one or more images, at least one of the plurality of patches having a different shape than another one of the plurality of patches. The shapes define an area to be considered for use in a patch synthesis technique. The patch synthesis technique is performed to edit an image using the computed plurality of patches having the different shapes.

    Abstract: Environmental map generation techniques and systems are described. A digital image is scaled to achieve a target aspect ratio using a content aware scaling technique. A canvas is generated that is dimensionally larger than the scaled digital image and the scaled digital image is inserted within the canvas thereby resulting in an unfilled portion of the canvas. An initially filled canvas is then generated by filling the unfilled portion using a content aware fill technique based on the inserted digital image. A plurality of polar coordinate canvases is formed by transforming original coordinates of the canvas into polar coordinates. The unfilled portions of the polar coordinate canvases are filled using a content-aware fill technique that is initialized based on the initially filled canvas. An environmental map of the digital image is generated by combining a plurality of original coordinate canvas portions formed from the polar coordinate canvases.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed at image synthesis utilizing sampling of patch correspondence information between iterations at different scales. A patch synthesis technique can be performed to synthesize a target region at a first image scale based on portions of a source region that are identified by the patch synthesis technique. The image can then be sampled to generate an image at a second image scale. The sampling can include generating patch correspondence information for the image at the second image scale. Invalid patch assignments in the patch correspondence information at the second image scale can then be identified, and valid patches can be assigned to the pixels having invalid patch assignments. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium for performing content based transitions between images. Image content within each image of a set of images are analyzed to determine at least one respective characteristic metric for each image. A respective transition score for each pair of at least a subset of the images is determined with respect to each transition effect of a plurality of transition effects based on the at least one respective characteristic metric for each image. Transition effects implementing transitions between successive images for a sequence of the images are determined based on the transition scores. An indication of the determined transition effects is stored. The determined transition effects are useable to present the images in a slideshow or other image sequence presentation.

    Abstract: Techniques and apparatus for automatic upright adjustment of digital images. An automatic upright adjustment technique is described that may provide an automated approach for straightening up slanted features in an input image to improve its perceptual quality. This correction may be referred to as upright adjustment. A set of criteria based on human perception may be used in the upright adjustment. A reprojection technique that implements an optimization framework is described that yields an optimal homography for adjustment based on the criteria and adjusts the image according to new camera parameters generated by the optimization. An optimization-based camera calibration technique is described that simultaneously estimates vanishing lines and points as well as camera parameters for an image; the calibration technique may, for example, be used to generate estimates of camera parameters and vanishing points and lines that are input to the reprojection technique.

    Abstract: Texture modeling techniques for image data are described. In one or more implementations, texels in image data are discovered by one or more computing devices, each texel representing an element that repeats to form a texture pattern in the image data. Regularity of the texels in the image data is modeled by the one or more computing devices to define translations and at least one other transformation of texels in relation to each other.

    Abstract: A system may be configured as an image recognition machine that utilizes an image feature representation called local feature embedding (LFE). LFE enables generation of a feature vector that captures salient visual properties of an image to address both the fine-grained aspects and the coarse-grained aspects of recognizing a visual pattern depicted in the image. Configured to utilize image feature vectors with LFE, the system may implement a nearest class mean (NCM) classifier, as well as a scalable recognition algorithm with metric learning and max margin template selection. Accordingly, the system may be updated to accommodate new classes with very little added computational cost. This may have the effect of enabling the system to readily handle open-ended image classification problems.
