Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110085739SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SIMILARITY SEARCH OF IMAGES - A system and method for an efficient semantic similarity search of images with a classification structure are provided. The system and method provide for building a semantic classification-search tree for the plurality of images, the classification tree including at least two categories of images, each category of images representing a subset of the plurality of images, receiving a query image, classifying the query image to select one of the at least two categories of images, and restricting the search for the image of interest using the query image to the selected one of the at least two categories of images.04-14-2011

20100260433SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SCALING IMAGES - A system and method for scaling images are provided. An upscaling algorithm or function is employed that increases the size of an image and then filters the upscaled image to remove aliasing artifacts. The system and method provides for acquiring an image of a first size, detecting the geometry of the image, scaling the image to a second size, and filtering the scaled image with at least one filter based on the detected geometry. During the filtering process, the edges of objects in the upscaled image are detected and different filter frequency responses are provided for the detected edges. Providing different filter frequency responses for the detected edges preserves more details for line images.10-14-2010
