Abstract:
The invention concerns a method of performing, by an image processing device, object detection in an image comprising: performing one or more tests of a test sequence for detection of a first object on pixels values of a plurality of at least partially overlapping sub-regions (310, 312, 314) of a first search window (108); generating a cumulative score based on results of said one or more tests on said plurality of sub-regions; comparing said cumulative score with a threshold value; and based on said comparison, selectively performing one or more of said tests of said test sequence on at least one further sub-region of said first search window, said at least one further sub-region at least partially overlapping each of said plurality of sub-regions.
Abstract:
To provide a memory efficient method and system for statistical data accumulation and processing, data is divided into multiple data zones and divided into subgroups of memories. A separate memory bin is assigned for each of the subgroups, and this memory bin is shared between various two data zones in each subgroup for processing and accumulation. In this scheme, the histogram data in each location of the separate memory bin for the previously accumulated data zones is processed before updating the stored value for the data zone requiring data accumulation.
Abstract:
The conversion device includes an input for receiving data corresponding to an image to be displayed. The received data is in a JPEG decoder output data format A processor is included for reconstructing and writing the image to be displayed into the image memory, in a display module expected input data format. The bandwidth of the image memory is greater than one byte. The processor is fully hardwired and includes a first logic stage for writing the received data byte by byte into an intermediate memory at chosen addresses such that the written data form a sequence of data in the display module expected input data format, and a second logic stage for reading the written data in the intermediate memory, forming successive packets of read data having a size corresponding to the bandwidth, and successively writing the packets into the image memory at chosen addresses such that the written packets together form all the lines of the image.
Abstract:
A memory architecture for image processing comprising a memory array having multiple multi-byte memory data paths of equal multi-byte data width, and a multiplexing structure connected to the output of the multiple multi-byte data paths, capable of selectively providing a multi-byte data path of a desired width containing a desired permutation of bytes chosen from one or more of the multiple data paths.
