Abstract: A technique that automatically adjusts a motion given to a projection target using a perceptual model is provided. A motion vector generation apparatus includes a first parameter generation unit that generates a first parameter that is a parameter for scaling a motion vector based on a perceptual difference between a projection result reproduction image which is an image that is obtained when a projection target onto which a projection image obtained based on the motion vector has been projected is photographed and a warped image which is an image generated by distorting an image obtained when the projection target is photographed by a perceptual amount of motion perceived when the projection result reproduction image is viewed, and a motion vector reduction unit that scales the motion vector using the first parameter.

Abstract: An evaluation value of a sense of temperature that is closer to human perception is estimated. An image feature amount extraction unit (11) extracts an image feature amount from an input image. A temperature sense estimation unit (12) estimates a temperature sense score from the image feature amount with use of a temperature sense estimation model in which a correlation between the image feature amount and the temperature sense score has been learned in advance. The temperature sense score may be weighted with use of a material weight previously set with respect to the material information corresponding to the input image. As the image feature amount, representative values of coordinates a*, b* in a Lab three-dimensional space or a color histogram in which the Lab three-dimensional space is divided into the predetermined number may be used.

Abstract: By performing, on an original image having pixel values representing depths of positions on a textured surface of a target object, a conversion for making an element histogram of a steerable pyramid of the original image the same as or similar to an element histogram of a steerable pyramid of a reference image having pixel values representing depths of positions on a textured surface of a reference object, for each spatial frequency band and each orientation band, histogram modulated images are obtained, and the histogram modulated images obtained for the spatial frequency bands and orientation bands are synthesized to obtain an image corresponding to a modulated image having pixel values representing depths of positions on a textured surface of a modulated object.

Abstract: A collision avoidance apparatus includes an obstacle detection section for detecting an obstacle, a collision avoidance section which performs collision avoidance assist control, and an avoidance processing start section for causing the collision avoidance section to start the collision avoidance assist control. In the case where the obstacle is a continuous obstacle, the timing of starting the collision avoidance assist control is delayed as compared with the case where the obstacle is not a continuous obstacle. Further, the greater the degree of gentleness of the inclination of the continuous obstacle, the greater the amount by which the timing of starting the collision avoidance assist control is delayed.
