ActiveUS20080084376A1Suppressibility of image resolution reductionReduce lossesStatic indicating devicesNon-linear opticsLiquid-crystal displayImage resolution
In a color display device, when using white (W) sub-pixels in addition to subpixels of red (R) and green (G) plus blue (B) without increasing a wiring line number, the per-color pixel number in a unit area decreases so that the image resolution is deteriorated. The area and number of subpixels are adjusted in accordance with the visual sensitivity or luminosity required. Practically, the area of red (R) and blue (B) subpixels which are relatively low in luminosity is set to be about two times greater than the area of green (G) and white (W) subpixels that are relatively high in luminosity while letting the number of green (G) and white (W) subpixels be twice the number of red (R) and blue (B) subpixels. A larger subpixel is configured from a plurality of unit subpixels. A smaller subpixel is formed of a one unit subpixel.

Methods and apparatus for using selective resolution reduction on images to be transmitted and / or used by a playback device are described. Prior to transmission one or more images of an environment are captured. Based on image content, motion detection and / or user input a resolution reduction operation is selected and performed. The reduced resolution image is communicated to a playback device along with information indicating a UV map corresponding to the selected resolution allocation that should be used by the playback device for rendering the communicated image. By changing the resolution allocation used and which UV map is used by the playback device different resolution allocations can be made with respect to different portions of the environment while allowing the number of pixels in transmitted images to remain constant. The playback device renders the individual images with the UV map corresponding to the resolution allocation used to generate the individual images.

A computer-implemented depth estimation method based on non-parametric Census transform with adaptive window patterns and semi-global optimization. A modified cross-based cost aggregation technique adaptively creates the shape of the cross for each pixel distinctly. In addition, a depth refinement algorithm fills holes within the estimated depth map using the surrounding background depth pixels and sharpens the object boundaries by exerting a trilateral filter to the generated depth map. The trilateral filter uses the curvature of pixels as well as texture and depth information to sharpen the edges.

Profiling of Pathology Images for Clinical Applications
ActiveUS20180374210A1Less analysisReduce computing loadImage enhancementImage analysisComputation complexityStatistical analysis
Provided are automated (computerized) methods and systems for analyzing digitized pathology images in a variety of tissues potentially containing diseased or neoplastic cells. The method utilizes a coarse-to-fine analysis, in which an entire image is tiled and shape, color, and texture features are extracted in each tile, as primary features. A representative subset of tiles is determined within a cluster of similar tiles. A statistical analysis (e.g. principal component analysis) reduces the substantial number of “coarse” features, decreasing computational complexity of the classification algorithm. Afterwards, a fine stage provides a detailed analysis of a single representative tile from each group. A second statistical step uses a regression algorithm (e.g. elastic net classifier) to produce a diagnostic decision value for each representative tile. A weighted voting scheme aggregates the decision values from these tiles to obtain a diagnosis at the whole slide level.

Image enlarging apparatus and method
InactiveUS20050046710A1Reduce image resolutionQuality improvementTelevision system detailsColor television detailsSignal processing circuitsImage resolution
When an image signal processing circuit first compresses the image and an image sizing circuit then enlarges the compressed image, the resolution, particularly the vertical resolution, is degraded by the enlarging process and overall image quality thus drops. This problem is solved by an image cropping circuit that crops the photographed image to a defined image area without any image compression when a second zoom switch is operated. This improves the resolution of the output image and eliminates the time needed for image compression and other signal processing operations. An enlarged image can thus be easily and immediately presented.

A display system has a first resolution video buffer 20, and can insert a second resolution analog video signal, the first resolution being higher than the second resolution. It can sample the second resolution video signal and insert it 50 without substantially reducing the resolution of the image. An advantage over software solution is more independence from software standards. The sampling can involve asynchronous over-sampling 130 to two or more states, adequate for recreating text or attributes. Then a re-sampler 52 uses a pixel clock derived 54 by counting coincidences of image and clock transitions, and adjusting a clock phase or frequency to minimize the count.

In a camera-assisted presentation system, a microcomputer activates a motion detecting module to detect a motion of an object, based on a variation in luminance of image data representing a material photographed by a photographing module. In the case of detection of a motion of the object, the microcomputer controls an output control module to prohibit transfer of the image data to an image output module. Image data photographed immediately before detection of the motion is kept in an output image storage sub-module of the image output module. This arrangement effectively prevents any action of setting the material from being undesirably displayed on an external display unit, thus ensuring smooth presentation with improved display of images during the actions of setting the material in the camera-assisted presentation system.
