    摘要: Methods and apparatus implementing a technique for searching media objects. In general, in one aspect, the technique includes receiving user input specifying a plurality of reference objects (2), defining a set of features for them, and combining the features to generate composite reference information (4) defining criteria for search (6). In general, in another aspect, the technique includes combining object information for a plurality of reference objects to produce composite reference information, comparing (10) the composite reference information to object information for media objects in a collection of media objects, and selecting a media object based upon the comparison.

    摘要: Systems and methods for simulating liquid-on-lens effects may provide an interface through which users can add and/or manipulate fluids on a virtual camera lens. A physically based fluid simulation may simulate the behavior of the fluid as it is deposited on and/or manipulated on the virtual lens, and determine the distribution of the fluid across the lens. A ray tracing technique may be employed to determine how light is refracted through the virtual lens and the fluid, and to render a distorted output image as seen through the lens and the fluid. As the fluid is manipulated, corresponding changes in the image may be displayed in real time. The input image may be an existing single image or a direct camera feed (e.g., of a tablet type device). The user may select a fluid type and/or various fluid properties for the image editing operation.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for masking and extracting a foreground portion from a background portion of a digital video. An input defining an initial border region is received, which includes a border between a foreground portion and a background portion of an initial digital image in a digital video. A border region for another digital image in the digital video is generated. The initial and automatically generated border regions are used for masking the foreground portion from the background portion in the digital video.

    摘要: A system to perform modifications, or adjustments, to a digital image includes an interface component to receive selection input to enable selection of the digital data to be modified. A detector then detects a characteristic of the digital data. A configurator automatically configures a function, supported by a data modification component, to modify the digital data. The automatic configuration of the function is performed using the detected characteristic of the digital data to be modified.

    摘要: According to some embodiments, a method, an apparatus and a system perform object detection in an image. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving an image. The method also includes detecting whether an object is in the image. The detecting comprises determining one or more features based on a projection for one or more pixels in the image, wherein the projection is dependent on a statistical probability of the colors of objects and non-objects at the one or more pixels in the image. The detecting also includes determining a likelihood value for the one or more features in the image.

Input comprising an instruction to perform an operation on a first portion of the digital image may be received. The first portion of the digital image may comprise data defined by a first region modality. The operation may be applicable to data defined by a second region modality. In response to receiving the input, the first portion of the digital image may be automatically converted from the first region modality to the second region modality. The operation may be automatically performed on the converted first portion of the digital image (i.e., as defined by the second region modality).

    摘要: A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium are disclosed for combining raster image masks in a digital image. A first raster image mask may be generated that comprises a first set of one or more pixels having a first intermediate value for membership in the first raster image mask. A second raster image mask may be generated that comprises the first set of one or more pixels having a second intermediate value for membership in the second raster image mask. The first raster image mask and the second raster image mask may be combined to generate a third raster image mask, wherein a boundary of the third raster image mask is not greater than a combined boundary of the first raster image mask and the second raster image mask.

    摘要: Systems and techniques for blending image data such that noise, texture and/or high-frequency data may be better preserved in a resulting blended image. In general, in one implementation, the techniques include blending a first image and a second image to form a blended image including a blended image component formed by a non-affine interpolation of components from the first and second images. The techniques also include blending a first image component corresponding to a first image region with a second image component corresponding to a second image region to produce a first blended component, blending a third image component corresponding to the first image region with a fourth image component corresponding to the second image region using blend coefficients, which sum to a value other than one, to produce a second blended component, and merging the first blended component with the second blended component to produce a blended image region.
