Disclosed is a virtual content experience system. In the virtual content experience system, a central server for driving the system contains: a content conversion unit which converts two-dimensional image content, received by means of a data transmission and reception unit or input by a user, into a stereoscopic image; a motion information generation unit which recognizes text information extracted from the two-dimensional image content and converts the text information into motion information; a content playback control unit which is provided to transmit the motion information to a motion information management unit provided in a virtual reality experience chair, or receive start information and end information about the motion information from the motion information management unit to generate and change control information for controlling whether to provide new two-dimensional image content; and a display unit for displaying the content conversion unit, and the motion information or control information.

An in-loop filtering procedure for improving the picture quality of a reconstructed image (video) can be performed. The in-loop filtering procedure can be also performed on a picture divided into sub pictures. According to embodiments of the present document, sub picture-related information and in-loop filtering-related information can be efficiently signaled.

A computer can operated, including detecting defects, or other physical features, of artificial objects. Image data is received of one or more artificial objects, and applying an image segmentation process to the image data to detect predetermined defects of the one or more artificial objects. The image segmentation process identifies one or more regions of the image data determined to have a likelihood of showing one or more of the predetermined defects. The identified one or more regions is output. The image segmentation process determines severity metrics for the defects in the one or more regions, wherein a severity metric represents a severity or significance of a defect. The image segmentation process further determines a confidence factor for each region of the one or more regions, wherein the confidence factor represents a likelihood of the presence of a predetermined defect in the region.

Disclosed are a semantic image extrapolation method and a semantic image extrapolation apparatus. The present invention provides a technique for generating an empty region for image-extension in an image by using an extrapolated segmentation map and an inpainting technique. The present invention is to provide, considering that there is no information in an empty region for image-extension in an image, a semantic image extrapolation method, of first generating an extrapolated segmentation map on the basis of a segmentation map from an input image, and filling the empty region for image-extension in the image with information on the basis of the extrapolated segmentation map and the input image.

A method of analyzing thoracic insufficiency syndrome (TIS) in a subject by performing quantitative dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (QdMRI) analysis. The QdMRI analysis includes performing four-dimensional (4D) image construction of a TIS subject's thoracic cavity. The 4D image includes a sequence of two dimensional (2D) images of the TIS subject's thoracic cavity over a respiratory cycle of the TIS subject. The QdMRI analysis also includes segmenting a region of interest (ROI) within the 4D image, determining TIS measurements within the ROI, comparing the TIS measurements to normal measurements determined from ROIs in 4D images of the thoracic cavities of normal subjects that are not afflicted by TIS, and outputting quantitative markers indicating deviation of the thoracic cavity of the TIS subject relative to the thoracic cavities of the normal subjects.
