A dynamic imaging system is disclosed. The dynamic imaging system may comprise one or more imager, one or more input device, a controller, and/or a display. Each imager may be operable to capture a video stream having a field of view. In some embodiments, the controller may articulate the imager or crop the field of view to change the field of view in response to signals from the one or more input devices. For example, the signal may relate to the vehicle's speed. In other embodiments, the controller may apply a warp to the field of view. The warp may be applied in response to signals from the one or more input devices. In yet other embodiments, video streams from one or more imagers may be stitched together by the controller. Further, the controller may likewise move the stitch line in response to signals from the or more input devices.

A method for deriving at least one item of information from images of a stereo camera. A resource-saving and at the same time accurate derivation of information from the images is achieved by alternately using and processing the images with methods of monocular image processing and deriving at least one item of information from the results. A motor vehicle comprising a stereo camera and comprising a control device which carries out the method, are also described.

One embodiment includes an image processing system, including a processor, a display device connected to the processor, an image capture device connected to the processor, and a memory connected to the processor, the memory containing an image processing application, wherein the image processing application directs the processor to obtain a time-series sequence of image data from the image capture device, identify complex networks within the time-series sequence of image data, and provide the identified complex networks using the display device.

The present disclosure relates to image processing. The method includes acquiring at least one of a backward propagation feature of an (x+1)th video frame in a video segment or a forward propagation feature of an (x−1)th video frame in the video segment. The video segment includes N video frames, N being an integer greater than 2, and x being an integer. The method further includes deriving a reconstruction feature of the xth video frame from at least one of the xth video frame, the backward propagation feature of the (x+1)th video frame, or the forward propagation feature of the (x−1)th video frame, and deriving a target video frame corresponding to the xth video frame by reconstructing the xth video frame based on the reconstruction feature of the xth video frame. The target video frame has resolution higher than that of the xth video frame.

Systems and methods for self-supervised depth estimation using image frames captured from a camera mounted on a vehicle comprise: receiving a first image from the camera mounted at a first location on the vehicle; receiving a second image from the camera mounted at a second location on the vehicle; predicting a depth map for the first image; warping the first image to a perspective of the camera mounted at the second location on the vehicle to arrive at a warped first image; projecting the warped first image onto the second image; determining a loss based on the projection; and updating the predicted depth values for the first image.

Methods and systems for high-resolution image manipulation are disclosed. An original high-resolution image to be manipulated is obtained, as well as a driving signal indicating a manipulation result. The original high-resolution image is down-sampled to obtain a low-resolution image to be manipulated. Using a trained manipulation generator, a low-resolution manipulated image and a motion field are generated from the low-resolution image. The motion field represent pixel displacements of the low-resolution image to obtain the manipulation indicated by the driving signal. A high-frequency residual image is computed from the original high-resolution image. A high-frequency manipulated residual image is generated using the motion field. A high-resolution manipulated image is outputted by combining the high-frequency manipulated residual image and a low-frequency manipulated image generated from the low-resolution manipulated image by up-sampling.

Techniques for tuning an image editing operator for reducing a distractor in raw image data are presented herein. The image editing operator can access the raw image data and a mask. The mask can indicate a region of interest associated with the raw image data. The image editing operator can process the raw image data and the mask to generate processed image data. Additionally, a trained saliency model can process at least the processed image data within the region of interest to generate a saliency map that provides saliency values. Moreover, a saliency loss function can compare the saliency values provided by the saliency map for the processed image data within the region of interest to one or more target saliency values. Subsequently, the one or more parameter values of the image editing operator can be modified based at least in part on the saliency loss function.

A system and method for lateral vehicle detection is disclosed. A particular embodiment can be configured to: receive lateral image data from at least one laterally-facing camera associated with an autonomous vehicle; warp the lateral image data based on a line parallel to a side of the autonomous vehicle; perform object extraction on the warped lateral image data to identify extracted objects in the warped lateral image data; and apply bounding boxes around the extracted objects.

An apparatus and method for optically remapping projected pixels to maximize the utilization and to optimize the distribution of remapped projection pixels to achieve optimal visual performance (generally uniform resolution and luminance). A device interposed between a projector and an imaging surface for optically remapping projected pixel locations with minimal aberration. When this device is interposed between a projector and an imaging surface, it changes the terminal location of each focused pixel such that it maximally coincides with the imaging surface, which is often a surface of complex curvature and very different from the native focal surface of the projector. One implementation of the technology includes a device that uses multiple optical surfaces.

A method, performed by an electronic device, of generating a three-dimensional (3D) image, includes: obtaining a first image through a first camera of the electronic device and obtaining a second image through a second camera of the electronic device; obtaining depth information of a pixel included in the first image; identifying, based on the depth information, a first layer image and a second layer image from the first image; inpainting, based on the first image and the second image, at least a part of the first layer image; and generating, based on the second layer image and the inpainted first layer image, the 3D image including a plurality of layers.
