Embodiment

[0096] Example: Generating SQI Scores

[0097] Users use traditional smartphone cameras (such as Apple 5 brand smart phone or Samsung S6 brand smartphones, updated versions of these, etc.) to take selfies. The smartphone includes a native application (ie, an application stored on the device itself) that provides the selfie to a remote computer for analysis. It should be understood that the selfie may also be provided to a remote computer for analysis via a web-based application (i.e., an application launched by a website accessed via Internet browser software stored on the mobile computing device), or if the mobile computing device Self-portraits may be analyzed by the mobile computing device having sufficient processing power and memory to support the processing logic and / or analysis logic required for the analysis. In this embodiment, if the face counting and detection module or landmark detection module fails to detect a face or suitable landmark, or detects more tha...

Abstract

Systems and methods for improving the image quality of a selfie. The system and method include analyzing a selfie with image processing modules and selfie quality index modules. The image processing modules process the image using face and landmark detection techniques and face normalization techniques. The selfie quality index modules analyze the selfie for important image quality metrics and provide feature vectors that are used to generate a selfie quality index score. The selfie quality index score can be used to determine whether the selfie meet minimum threshold quality requirement for further analysis by the system for a skin condition.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application generally relates to systems and methods for improving the quality of self-captured digital photographs. More specifically, the present application relates to a system of image processing modules that process images using qualitative metrics and determine the quality of self-captured digital images, particularly images of human faces. Depending on image quality, various additional image processing and / or analysis steps may be implemented, or the user may be prompted to retake the selfie. Background technique [0002] Digital imaging technology permeates modern society. Biometric scanning, computer generated images, image processing, and so-called "selfies" are just a few common examples of digital imaging applications. More recently, it has been recognized that using digital imaging techniques, especially images or selfies of consumers, can be used to identify new customers and / or market products to consumers. For example, so...
