摘要:
A network monitoring system (10) for monitoring a network along which network traffic flows in a form of packets. The system comprises circuitry (36, 42) for receiving a packet communicated along the network and for determining whether the received packet satisfies a set of conditions. The system further comprises circuitry (36/30, 46), responsive to a determination that the received packet satisfies the set, for determining a measure, wherein the measure is determined over a defined time interval and comprises a ratio of packet arrival variance and a mean of packets arriving during the time interval and for comparing the measure to a threshold. Lastly, the system comprises circuitry (36, 52), responsive to the measure exceeding the threshold, for adjusting network resources.
摘要:
A method for selecting a digital image having controlled sharpness characteristics from a set of candidate digital images of a common scene, each digital image having different sharpness characteristics. An image segmentation process is used to segment each of the candidate digital images into a subject region and a background region. For each candidate digital image the subject and background regions are analyzed to determine an associated subject and background sharpness levels. An output digital image is selected by comparing the determined subject and background sharpness levels to respective aim subject and background sharpness levels. In some embodiments, the aim subject and background sharpness levels are defined in accordance with a scene type classification.

The sharpness of a digital image is adjusted according to defined aim subject and background sharpness levels. An image segmentation process is used to segment an input digital image into a subject region and a background region. The subject and background regions are analyzed to determine corresponding subject and background sharpness levels. An enhanced digital image is formed wherein the sharpness of the subject region is adjusted responsive to the subject sharpness level and the aim subject sharpness level, and the sharpness of the background region is adjusted responsive to the background sharpness level and the aim background sharpness level. In some embodiments, the input digital image is analyzed to determined a scene type classification and the aim subject and background sharpness levels are defined in accordance with the determined scene type classification.

A method of recognizing an event depicted in an image from the image and a location information associated with the image is disclosed. The method includes acquiring the image and its associated location information; using the location information to acquire an aerial image(s) correlated to the location information; identifying the event using both the image and the acquired aerial image(s); and storing the event in association with the image for subsequent use.

A method for producing an improved high resolution image is disclosed including capturing low resolution images and a high resolution image; combining the low resolution images to provide an aggregate low resolution image; reducing the resolution of the high resolution image and then interpolated to produce a blurred high resolution image; calculating an image difference map using the aggregate high resolution image and blurred high resolution image; and using the image difference map along with the aggregate high resolution image and the high resolution image to produce an improved high resolution image.
摘要:
A method for determining a candidate lesion region within an ultrasound image. The method includes the steps of: accessing a digital ultrasound image of anatomical tissue; segmenting spatially contiguous pixels in the ultrasound image into a plurality of regions in accordance with substantially similar intensity values and spatial smoothness constraints; and selecting, from the plurality of regions, one or more candidate lesion regions having an intensity value lower than a pre-determined intensity value. In one arrangement, the one or more candidate lesion region is classified into at least one of the following classes: benign, malignant, or unknown.

A method of detecting sky in a digital color image having pixels is disclosed. The method includes identifying pixels from the digital color image representing an initial sky region; developing a model based on the identified sky pixels, wherein such model is a mathematical function that has inputs of pixel position and outputs of color; and using the model to operate on the digital color image to classify additional pixels not included in the initial sky region as sky.
摘要:
A method for determining an estimated clutter level of an input digital image based on an inequality index. The inequality index is determined by analyzing the input digital image to determine a set of image features. The image features are associated with a set of designated reference features, and the inequality index is determined based on the statistical variation of the reference features. A set of scene content features relating to spatial structures or semantic content of the input digital image is determined by analyzing the input digital image. The estimated clutter is determined responsive to the inequality index and the scene content features.
