52 results about "Image warping" patented technology

Image warping is the process of digitally manipulating an image such that any shapes portrayed in the image have been significantly distorted. Warping may be used for correcting image distortion as well as for creative purposes (e.g., morphing). The same techniques are equally applicable to video.

A method for indoor scene illumination estimation based on local to global completion strategy

The present invention discloses a method for indoor scene illumination estimation based on a local-to-global completion strategy. This method aims to estimate the illumination conditions at any position in a single restricted-view indoor scene image and decomposes the indoor scene illumination estimation problem into three subtasks: depth-based image warping, low dynamic range (LDR) panorama completion, and high dynamic range (HDR) reconstruction. Based on the second subtask, this method proposes a local-to-global panorama completion strategy. This strategy first performs depth-guided local completion on the sparse panorama output after the first stage of warping to fill small and dense holes. Then, a reasonable global completion is performed using a cubemap projection method and a transformer network (called PanoTransformer) capable of fitting long-range dependencies. Finally, a physically reasonable panorama with texture details can be restored at any position in the input image to capture the spatially varying indoor illumination.
