    Abstract: Geometries of the structures and objects deviate from their idealized models, while not always visible to the naked eye. Embodiments of the present invention reveal and visualize such subtle geometric deviations, which can contain useful, surprising information. In an embodiment of the present invention, a method can include fitting a model of a geometry to an input image, matting a region of the input image according to the model based on a sampling function, generating a deviation function based on the matted region, extrapolating the deviation function to an image wide warping field, and generating an output image by warping the input image according to the warping. In an embodiment of the present invention, Deviation Magnification inputs takes a still image or frame, fits parametric models to objects of interest, and generates an output image exaggerating departures from ideal geometries.

    Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a method, corresponding system, and corresponding apparatus for rendering a video and/or image display to amplify small motions through video magnification. Some embodiments include a new compact image pyramid representation, the Riesz pyramid, that may be used for real-time, high-quality phase-based video magnification. Some embodiments are less overcomplete than even the smallest two orientation, octave-bandwidth complex steerable pyramid. Some embodiments are implemented using compact, efficient linear filters in the spatial domain. Some embodiments produce motion magnified videos that are of comparable quality to those using the complex steerable pyramid. In some embodiments, the Riesz pyramid is used with phase-based video magnification. The Riesz pyramid may phase-shift image features along their dominant orientation, rather than along every orientation like the complex steerable pyramid.

    Abstract: Multi-view autostereoscopic displays provide an immersive, glasses-free 3D viewing experience, but they preferably use correctly filtered content from multiple viewpoints. The filtered content, however, may not be easily obtained with current stereoscopic production pipelines. The proposed method and system takes a stereoscopic video as an input and converts it to multi-view and filtered video streams that may be used to drive multi-view autostereoscopic displays. The method combines a phase-based video magnification and an interperspective antialiasing into a single filtering process. The whole algorithm is simple and may be efficiently implemented on current GPUs to yield real-time performance. Furthermore, the ability to retarget disparity is naturally supported. The method is robust and works transparent materials, and specularities. The method provides superior results when compared to the state-of-the-art depth-based rendering methods. The method is showcased in the context of a real-time 3D videoconferencing system.

    Abstract: An imaging method and corresponding apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention enables measurement and visualization of fluid flow. An embodiment method includes obtaining video captured by a video camera with an imaging plane. Representations of motions in the video are correlated. A textured background of the scene can be modeled as stationary, with a refractive field translating between background and video camera. This approach offers multiple advantages over conventional fluid flow visualization, including an ability to use ordinary video equipment outside a laboratory without particle injection. Even natural backgrounds can be used, and fluid motion can be distinguished from refraction changes. Depth and three-dimensional information can be recovered using stereo video, and uncertainty methods can enhance measurement robustness where backgrounds are less textured. Example applications can include avionics and hydrocarbon leak detection.
