If the divergence measure is less than a predetermined threshold value, the splitting criterion comprises a divergence-based splitting criterion which maximizes subsequent divergence after a split. Otherwise, the splitting criterion comprises an information-based splitting criterion which seeks to minimize subsequent misclassification error after the split. | 2011-02-24 |
20110044535 | PRINTING GRAPHICS WITH TRANSPARENCY ON A POSTSCRIPT ENABLED IMAGE FORMING DEVICE - What is disclosed is a novel system and method for emulating transparency in a PostScript-enabled image forming device, such as a PostScript-enabled print device.

20110044536 | PIXEL-LEVEL BASED MICRO-FEATURE EXTRACTION - Techniques are disclosed for extracting micro-features at a pixel-level based on characteristics of one or more images. Importantly, the extraction is unsupervised, i.e., performed independent of any training data that defines particular objects, allowing a behavior-recognition system to forgo a training phase and for object classification to proceed without being constrained by specific object definitions. A micro-feature extractor that does not require training data is adaptive and self-trains while performing the extraction.

In one aspect of the invention, the method and apparatus iteratively constrains the variation of an estimated image in order to reconstruct the image. As one example, a divergent beam maybe used to generate data (“actual data”). As discussed above, the actual data may be less than sufficient to exactly reconstruct the image by conventional techniques, such as FBP. In order to reconstruct an image, a first estimated image may be generated. Estimated data may be generated from the first estimated image, and compared with the actual data. The comparison of the estimated data with the actual data may include determining a difference between the estimated and actual data. The comparison may then be used to generate a new estimated image. For example, the first estimated image may be combined with an image generated from the difference data to generate a new estimated image. In order to generate the image for the next iteration, the variation of the new estimated image may be constrained. For example, the variation of the new estimated image may be at least partly constrained in order to lessen or reducing the total variation of the image. | 2011-02-24 |
