  • Patent number: 11100401
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for predicting depth from colour image data using a statistical model such as a convolutional neural network (CNN), The model is trained on binocular stereo pairs of images, enabling depth data to be predicted from a single source colour image. The model is trained to predict, for each image of an input binocular stereo pair, corresponding disparity values that enable reconstruction of another image when applied, to the image. The model is updated based on a cost function that enforces consistency between the predicted disparity values for each image in the stereo pair.

  • Patent number: 9002055
    Abstract: A method (100) and system (300) is described for processing video data comprising a plurality of images. The method (100) comprising obtaining (104, 106), for each of the plurality of images, a segmentation in a plurality of regions and a set of keypoints, and tracking (108) at least one region between a first image and a subsequent image resulting in a matched region in the subsequent image taking into account a matching between keypoints in the first image and the subsequent image. The latter results in accurate tracking of regions. Furthermore the method may optionally also perform label propagation taking into account keypoint tracking.
