    摘要: A method of determining an orientation of an object within an image. The method determines the responses of at least two classifiers in at least one region of the image corresponding to the object. The classifiers have been trained to identify a given object in different specific orientations. The orientation of the object is determined as an average of the specific orientations, weighted by the responses of their respective classifiers.

    摘要: A method of controlling in a display device screen brightness and strength of dynamic range compression of display data in dependence on ambient light level. Ambient light level values are required from one or more ambient light sensors. The ambient light level values are averaged using a first method to obtain a first average value and using a second, different method to obtain a second average value. The first average value is used for controlling the screen brightness and the second average value is used for controlling the strength of the dynamic range compression.

    摘要: A method of processing image data representative of an image using a multi-stage system comprising a first neural network (NN) for identifying a first image characteristic and a second NN for identifying a second image characteristic. The method comprises processing the image data using t a first at least one layer of the first NN to generate feature data representative of at least one feature of the image and processing the feature data using a second at least one layer of the first NN to generate first image characteristic data indicative of whether the image includes the first image characteristic. The feature data is transferred from the first NN to the second NN. The feature data is processed using the second NN to generate second image characteristic data representative of whether the image includes the second image characteristic.

    摘要: Image data representative of at least a portion of an image comprising first and second sets of pixels associated with first and second colour channels, respectively, is received. It is determined that a first pixel of the first set of pixels is a saturated pixel. First data based on a value of the first pixel of the second set of pixels is obtained for a first image region comprising the first pixel of the first set of pixels and a first pixel of the second set of pixels. Second data based on respective values of second pixels of the first and second sets of pixels are obtained, based on the first data, for a second image region. The second data is processed to generate output data representative of an estimated value associated with the first colour channel for the first pixel.

    摘要: A method of processing input data using a computing system. The method comprises obtaining association data which relates a kernel in a convolutional neural network to one or more known data patterns; conducting analysis of input data for the convolutional neural network to identify whether a region of input data corresponds to at least one of the one or more known data patterns; and determining whether to process the region of input data with the kernel in the convolutional neural network based on the analysis and the association data.

    摘要: A method for reducing artefacts caused by the presence of flicker during image capture. The method comprises performing image capture to produce image capture data corresponding to an image capture scene, the image capture data including a first image having a first exposure and a second image having a second exposure. The image capture data is processed to: (a) detect a discrepancy in the second image with respect to the first image; and (b) determine flicker indication data indicative of a presence of flicker in the second image. The discrepancy is corrected in dependence upon the flicker indication to produce a flicker-reduced version of the second image.

    摘要: A method including receiving input data representing an input frame of a video. Transformation data representing at least one transformation for applying to an image to adjust a geometric distortion of the image is received. A first and second plurality of input tiles, each including a respective portion of the input frame, is processed with at least part of the transformation data, thereby generating first and second sub-window data representing a first and second sub-window of an output frame of the video, respectively.

    摘要: A method of forming a control parameter dependent on ambient light. The method comprises the steps of acquiring light values from an ambient light sensor and acquiring positional status values from a positional status sensor. The control parameter depends on the light values and is filtered in dependence on the positional status values.

    摘要: Examples of the present disclosure relate to a method for reducing artefacts caused by the presence of flicker during capture of a video. A sequence of frames of the video are captured, the frames each comprising a plurality of predefined regions each comprising a plurality of pixels. A time-varying oscillation of the flicker is characterized based on variations, across the sequence of frames, of data relating to pixel intensities in at least one said region. Based on the characterizing of the time-varying oscillation of the flicker, a flicker correction is applied to a frame of the video.
