20120027269 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING AND MODIFYING A PERSONALIZED FACE CHART - A system and method for providing a personalized digital face chart. A digital image of a subject's face is obtained. A facial region of the digital image is identified from a background region of the digital image. A line drawing is generated based on at least the facial region of the digital image. The line drawing is stylized to generate a personalized digital face chart. A user interface configured to accept at least one face chart modification from a user is provided. The personalized digital face chart is modified based on the at least one face chart modification. | 02-02-2012 |
20120075331 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CHANGING HAIR COLOR IN DIGITAL IMAGES - A system and method for digital hair coloring is described. A starting image of a subject including a hair region is obtained. At least one foreground selection of the starting image is obtained, the foreground selection including a portion of the hair region. At least one background selection of the starting image excluding the hair region is obtained. A matte defining a calculated foreground area of the starting image is calculated based on the foreground selection and the background selection. A target color distribution based on a target hair color is obtained. A color image is generated by applying a color transformation based on the target color distribution to at least the calculated foreground area of the starting image. An output image is generated from the colored image and the starting image. | 03-29-2012 |
20130278626 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SIMULATING ACCESSORY DISPLAY ON A SUBJECT - Systems and methods for simulating accessory display on a subject are described herein. At least one digital image of a subject is obtained. At least one target contour in an accessory target zone is identified. An accessory image and an accessory foreground matte, and a plurality of accessory control points associated with at least one contour contact zone are obtained.

20100142804 | METHOD FOR EDITING MULTI-CHANNEL IMAGES - The present invention presents a framework for separating specular and diffuse reflection components in images and videos. Each pixel of the an M-channel input image illuminated by N light sources is linearly transformed into a new color space having (M−N) channels. For an RGB image with one light source, the new color space has two color channels (U,V) that are free of specularities and a third channel (S) that contains both specular and diffuse components. When used with multiple light sources, the transformation may be used to produce a specular invariant image. A diffuse RGB image can be obtained by applying a non-linear partial differential equation to an RGB image to iteratively erode the specular component at each pixel. An optional third dimension of time may be added for processing video images. After the specular and diffuse components are separated, dichromatic editing may be used to independently process the diffuse and the specular components to add or suppress visual effects. The (U,V) channels of images can be used as input to 3-D shape estimation algorithms including shape-from-shading, photometric stereo, binocular and multinocular stereopsis, and structure-from-motion. | 06-10-2010 |
20120308124 | Method and System For Localizing Parts of an Object in an Image For Computer Vision Applications - A method is provided for localizing parts of an object in an image by training local detectors using labeled image exemplars with fiducial points corresponding to parts within the image. Each local detector generates a detector score corresponding to the likelihood that a desired part is located at a given location within the image exemplar. A non-parametric global model of the locations of the fiducial points is generated for each of at least a portion of the image exemplars. An input image is analyzed using the trained local detectors, and a Bayesian objective function is derived for the input image from the non-parametric model and detector scores. The Bayesian objective function is optimized using a consensus of global models, and an output is generated with locations of the fiducial points labeled within the object in the image. | 12-06-2012 |
