Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a graphics processing unit (GPU) is configured to detect an object in an image using a random forest classifier that includes multiple, identically structured decision trees. Notably, the application of each of the decision trees is independent of the application of the other decision trees. In operation, the GPU partitions the image into subsets of pixels, and associates an execution thread with each of the pixels in the subset of pixels. The GPU then causes each of the execution threads to apply the random forest classifier to the associated pixel, thereby determining a likelihood that the pixel corresponds to the object. Advantageously, such a distributed approach to object detection more fully leverages the parallel architecture of the parallel processing unit (PPU) than conventional approaches. In particular, the PPU performs object detection more efficiently using the random forest classifier than using a cascaded classifier.

Abstract: A face beautification system and a method of face beautification. On embodiment of the face beautification system includes: (1) a coarse feature detector configured to generate an approximation of facial features in an image, (2) an edge-preserving filter configured to reduce distortions in the approximation, and (3) a feature enhancer operable to selectively filter a facial feature from said approximation and carry out an enhancement.
