Apparatus and methods are provided for extracting and displaying information and data from a stream of information on a pair of smart glasses. One or more content filters describing the desired information and data may be communicated to a content filtering module. The content filtering module may process the stream of information to search for the desired information and data. When the desired information is found within the stream of information, the content filtering module may highlight the desired information, while blurring all other information, within a display on the pair of smart glasses.

According to one embodiment, a reading system includes an extractor, a determiner, and a reader. The extractor extracts a candidate image from an input image. The candidate image is a candidate of a portion of the input image in which a segment display is imaged. The determiner uses the candidate image and a mask to calculate a match ratio indicating a certainty of a segment display being included in the candidate image, and determines that the candidate image is an image of a segment display when the match ratio is not less than a threshold. The mask and the threshold are preset. The reader reads a numerical value displayed in a segment display from the candidate image determined to be an image of a segment display.

The system receives an indication of a sensitive operation. The system obtains a unique ID of a user's UE. Based on the unique ID of the UE, the system retrieves a visual authentication method including a visual ID. The system records the visual ID, and retrieves a corresponding stored visual ID. The system performs a liveness check associated with the visual ID, to determine whether the visual ID is a recording or a live version of the visual ID. Upon determining that the visual ID is the recording, the system refuses to authenticate the user. Upon determining that the visual ID is the live version of the visual ID, the system compares the visual ID and the corresponding stored visual ID to determine whether the visual ID and the corresponding stored visual ID match. Upon determining that the visual ID and the corresponding stored visual ID match, the system authenticates the user.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for performing licence plate matching. A reference list comprising licence plate identifiers is obtained. At least one transformation rule is applied to the licence plate identifiers of the reference list to generate entries forming at least one augmented reference list, and storing the at least one augmented reference list in at least one database. A search request comprising an input licence plate identifier is obtained. The at least one transformation rule is applied to the input licence plate identifier to generate a search list comprising at least one search term. The at least one database is queried with the search list to identify a match between at least one of the entries of the at least one augmented reference list and the at least one search term of the search list. A signal responsive is output to identifying the match.

A number plate information specifying device includes an image acquisition unit that acquires a number plate image, a feature point extraction unit that extracts a feature point from the number plate image, a degree of similarity calculation unit that references a learning data set in which a plurality of feature points are recorded in association with a plurality of pieces of number plate information and calculates degrees of similarity for the feature points recorded in the learning data set that correspond to the feature point extracted from the number plate image, a vote value calculation unit that, on the basis of the degrees of similarity, calculates vote values for the pieces of number plate information recorded in the learning data set, and a specifying unit that specifies the piece of number plate information that has the highest vote value as the number plate information displayed in the number plate image.

A method for detecting a document edge is provided. The method includes: obtaining multi-color channel data of each pixel in a color image (103), where the multi-color channel data includes two-dimensional coordinate values of the pixel and a value of the pixel on each color channel; performing line detection on the multi-color channel data of each pixel in the color image (105); and detecting a quadrilateral based on preset condition and some or all of straight lines obtained by performing the line detection (107). According to the foregoing method, a success rate of detecting a document edge can be increased.

A method, a device, a terminal and a storage medium for acquiring slant value of slant image are provided. The method for acquiring slant value of a slant image comprises: analyzing the slant image and acquiring coordinate information of a plurality of boundary lines of the slant image; acquiring first slant values of the boundary lines by analysing and calculating the coordinate information; acquiring a correction value; calculating difference values between the first slant values and the correction value respectively; determining the first slant value corresponding to the minimum difference value as the slant value of the slant image. The technical solution of the present disclosure can uniquely determine a slant value of slant image.

A method and apparatus for adaptively displaying a handwriting input on an electronic device are provided. The method includes receiving a handwriting input from an electronic device, detecting handwriting features in the handwriting input and comparing the handwriting features with stored handwriting feature data, determining, according to a result of the comparing, whether a subject of the handwriting input is an existing user or a new user, and displaying, according to the determination, a subsequent handwriting input by the subject of the handwriting input to match a target handwriting input style.

An object is to provide a polygon detection device, a polygon detection method, and a polygon detection program to accurately detect a polygon resembling a reference polygon from an image.

The polygon detection device acquires a ratio among lengths of sides of a reference polygon included in an appearance of a predetermined object. The polygon detection device acquires a photographic image of the predetermined object. The polygon detection device detects line segments from the acquired photographic image. The polygon detection device forms at least one polygon based on the detected line segments. The polygon detection device identifies, from the formed polygon, a polygon corresponding to the reference polygon based on a degree of similarity between a ratio among lengths of sides of the formed polygon and the acquired ratio among the lengths of sides of the reference polygon, among from the formed polygon.
