DIRECTING COMMUNICATION OF DATA FROM AN IMAGE SENSOR
A memory device can be configured to direct communication of data from an image sensor to the memory device and/or image signal processing circuitry coupled thereto. The memory device can be configured to receive first signaling indicative of first data from an image sensor via a first port and provide the first signaling from the memory device to image signal processing (ISP) circuitry via a second port. The memory device can be configured to receiving, by the memory device, second signaling indicative of second data from the image sensor while the ISP circuitry operates on the first data. An image processing operation can be performed using logic circuitry of the memory device. Directing communication of data using the memory device can reduce data transfers, reduce resource consumption of an imaging system, and offload workloads from a host device and/or a host processing device, for example.

ADAPTIVE COLOR TRANSFORMATION TO AID COMPUTER VISION
System and techniques for adaptive color transformation to aid computer vision are described herein. Colors from an image are mapped into a multi-dimensional space to create a distribution of colors in the image. A line can be fit to the distribution. Here, the line includes an angle relative to a coordinate system of the multi-dimensional space. A transformation to colors can then be applied to the image based on the angle of the line. The transformation producing a reduced image where a color complexity of the original image is reduced.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DOCUMENT RECOGNITION
An apparatus for document recognition according to an embodiment includes a document type analyzer that analyzes a type of a recognition target document based on document feature vector extracted from one or more partial images obtained by color space conversion of one or more partial regions of the recognition target document, and an information extractor that extracts value information from one or more information search images organized in a grid form based on a position of key information of the recognition target document.
IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, SCANNER, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD
An image processing apparatus includes circuitry to receive visible image data obtained by reading of a subject with a sensor having sensitivity to visible light in a visible wavelength range and invisible image data obtained by reading of the subject with a sensor having sensitivity to invisible light in an invisible wavelength range. The circuitry generates image data for displaying, in a designated color, a portion of the visible image data corresponding to a designated region of the invisible image data. The designated region has an absorption rate equal to or higher than a predetermined absorption rate.
COLOR TABLES
A color table is modulated. The color table includes nodes that correspond with a color input in a first color space and provides a print substance formulation in a second color space. For a set of the nodes, a determination is made as to whether a color amount based on the print substance formulation is outside of threshold value. For each node in which the color amount for the node is outside the threshold value, the print substance formulation is replaced with a replacement print substance formulation having a color amount that is within the threshold value.
