Abstract:
The image data display system according to the present invention makes it possible to comprehend a global distribution of measurement values and a change in details of the measurement values simultaneously. In the present invention, a color information conversion unit converts the measurement values to color information for representing the global distribution of the measurement values. A detail extraction unit extracts detail information of the measurement values from the measurement values. A detail adjustment unit adjusts the strength of detail information and generates adjusted detail information. A color information adding unit adds color information on the basis of the adjusted detail information.
Abstract:
An image processing system in which, in order to easily analyze input images acquired by sensors, output image quality is improved so that is suitable for a user. It includes: a gradient calculation unit that calculates a desired gradient based on input images; an indication function calculation unit that calculates an indication function for the input images, the indication function defining a range that can be taken by an output image and pixel values of a reference image; a pixel value renewal unit that renews pixel values of one of the input images so as to approximate the desired gradient to produce a renewed image; and a pixel value constraint unit that updates pixel values of the renewed image so as to fall within the range that can be taken by the output image and to approximate the pixel values of the reference image, to thereby obtain the output image.
Abstract:
The present invention enables a high-quality filtered image to be generated even from multi modal and multispectral images containing positional deviations. An image perturbation part generates a perturbed guide image group comprising first to K-th perturbed guide images obtained by deforming a guide image. A filtering part generates a filtered image group comprising first to K-th filtered images by applying first to K-th filtering processing to a target image by using the perturbed guide image group. A reliability calculation part calculates a reliability group comprising first to K-th reliabilities for the first to K-th filtered images of the filtered image group on the basis of first to K-th correlation values between the first to K-th perturbed guide images and the target image. A weight optimization part generates, on the basis of the first to K-th reliabilities, a weight group comprising first to K-th weights to be respectively used when compositing the first to K-th filtered images. An output image compositing pail composites an output image from the weight group and the filtered image group.
Abstract:
A camera calibration board, which is arranged three-dimensionally above a board, includes the board, a plurality of flat plates, and a plurality of support columns having the same length. The plurality of flat plates are spatially arranged in a plane different from a plane in which the board is arranged. The board and each of the plurality of flat plates have different reflectances with respect to visible light. With this configuration, it is possible to accurately measure extrinsic parameters between cameras, which are required for calibrating cameras that use different types of image sensors, in order to easily analyze a group of images acquired from a plurality of sensors.
Abstract:
A camera calibration information acquisition device acquires captured images of a camera calibration target from two or more cameras, detects, from each image, a coordinate of a feature point in the image, calculates—an internal parameter for each camera by using the feature point, calculates, for each camera, a magnitude of error in the coordinate of the feature point, calculates a value for an external parameter of the cameras by using the magnitude of the error, the coordinate of the feature point, and an error function set so that a penalty for error in calculating the external parameter decreases as the magnitude of the error in the coordinate of the feature point in the image increases.
Abstract:
An authentication device includes an image acquisition unit, an identification unit, and an authentication unit. The image acquisition unit acquires an image of an eye of a subject. The identification unit identifies the colored pattern of a colored contact lens worn by the subject by comparing a reference image with the image of the eye. The authentication unit identifies the subject, using a feature in a region other than a colored region of the colored pattern in the iris region of the eye.
