Abstract: A method for processing model data of a set of garments includes storing first and second model data of a first and a second garment of the set, each of the model data including two-dimensional or three-dimensional geometry data defining a mesh associated with the respective garment. A limiting object of the respective garment is defined by at least a portion of the geometry data and constitutes a separation between an interior and an exterior of the respective garment. The first and the second garment constitute an inner garment and an outer garment that is worn over the inner garment. At least one opening object for the outer garment is stored, defined as a portion of the limiting object and constituting a transition for an item between the interior and the exterior of the outer garment. Intersection objects are determined for each of the garments, defining one or more intersections between the limiting objects of the garments.

Abstract: In a method for producing three-dimensional model data of a garment having a target garment size, intermediate model data of the garment are stored, which are associated with a base garment size and include intermediate geometry data and at least one intermediate texture map associated with the intermediate geometry data. Through semantic segmentation of the intermediate texture map a label map is generated that associates each element of the intermediate texture map to a respective one of a set of segments of the garment and associated resizing rules. Geometry data for the model data are generated by resizing the intermediate geometry data based on the label map, on the resizing rules, on a body model and on a set of scaling factors between the base garment size and the target garment size. A texture map is generated based on the intermediate texture map, on the label map, on the resizing rules and on the set of scaling factors.

Abstract: In a process for generating garment model data representative of a piece of garment, input image data containing a view of the piece of garment are processed. A type of wearing condition is determined as at least one of a first type of worn garment and of a second type of not-worn garment. If the first type is determined, a shape of the piece of garment and a shape of the person wearing the garment are identified utilizing an active contour modelling approach based on a preset body model. The identified shapes are adapted based on a garment template model. The garment model data are determined from the input image data based on the adapted identified shapes. If the second type is determined, a shape of the piece of garment is identified. The input image data are iteratively compared with a respective garment template model to identify at least one matching garment template model.

Abstract: In a method for producing output images based on a user image and a base image, the base image is selected from an image database that contains a plurality of processed images. For each of said processed images a rule entry exists in each of a placing rule database and a composition rule database. An output image is produced by placing the user image or at least a section of the user image into an image slot of the selected base image. Said image slot is defined by a placing rule associated with said base image in the placing rule database. The output image is further produced by compositing the user image or the section of the user image with said base image with respect to an overlap relation of pixels of said base image and pixels of the user image. Said overlap relation is defined by a composition rule associated with said base image and a composition rule database.

Abstract: A method, device, and apparatus for determining optical flow from a plurality of images is described and includes receiving a first image frame from a first plurality of images, where the first plurality of images have a first resolution and a first frame rate. A second image frame may be received from a second plurality of images, where the second plurality of images have a second resolution less than the first resolution and a second frame rate greater than the first frame rate. A first optical flow may be computed from the first image frame to the second image frame. Additionally, the based at least in part on the first optical flow from the first image frame to the second image frame, a third image frame may be output as part of an output stream. The output stream may have a frame rate greater than or equal to the first frame rate, where the third image frame has a resolution greater than or equal to the second resolution.
