Abstract: An image processing apparatus for controlling white balance of an image is provided. The apparatus detects a white region from image data and calculates a first white balance correction value based on data of the white region. The apparatus also detects, with use of machine learning, a region of a subject that has a preset specific color, from the image data, and calculates a second white balance correction value based on a color of the region of the subject. The apparatus calculates a white balance correction value to be applied to the image data, based on the first white balance correction value and the second white balance correction value.

Abstract: An electronic endoscope system includes a plotting unit which plots pixel correspondence points, which correspond to pixels that constitute an intracavitary color image that has a plurality of color components, on a target plane according to color components of the pixel correspondence points, the target plane intersecting the origin of a predetermined color space; an axis setting unit which sets a reference axis in the target plane based on pixel correspondence points plotted on the target plane; and an evaluation value calculating unit which calculates a prescribed evaluation value with respect to the captured image based on a positional relationship between the reference axis and the pixel correspondence points.

Abstract: An electronic endoscope system includes a plotting unit which plots pixel correspondence points, which correspond to pixels that constitute a color image that has multiple color components, on a first color plane according to color components of the pixel correspondence points, the first color plane intersecting the origin of a predetermined color space; an axis setting unit which sets a predetermined reference axis in the first color plane; a transform unit which defines a second color plane that includes the reference axis, and subjecting the pixel correspondence points on the first color plane to projective transformation onto the second color plane; and an evaluation value calculating unit which calculates a prescribed evaluation value with respect to the color image based on the pixel correspondence points subjected to projective transformation onto the second color plane.

Abstract: Provided are an image processing method and device, a mobile terminal, and a storage medium. The method includes: acquiring a first image output by an image sensor; responsive to that a first signal value of the first image after being processed exceeds a saturation value of a first bit width at a preset image processing stage, recording the first signal value of the processed first image as a second signal value with a second bit width, the second bit width being greater than the first bit width; and mapping the second signal value recorded with the second bit width to a third signal value recorded with the first bit width to obtain a second image. Through the method, an operation of increasing a bit width can be used to retain more information of an image and improve the quality of the image, and an implementation is simple and effective.

Abstract: There is provided with an electronic apparatus including an acquisition unit configured to acquire a first number of values related to a specific function, the first number of values each being able to take one of N values, and a display control unit configured to perform control to display a first number of display items, each display item corresponding to a respective one of the first number of values acquired by the acquisition unit, each of the first number of display items being able to represent one of n values, where n is smaller than N. A value represented by each display item is determined according to a plurality of values other than the value corresponding to the display item out of the first number of values acquired by the acquisition unit.

Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to substantially enable fitting without using a reference object model being three-dimensional point cloud data directly for fitting and enable comparison between an actual object model and the reference object model.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides method and systems for signaling chroma quantization parameter (QP) table. According to some disclosed embodiments, the methods include: receiving a bitstream of video data; determining whether a luma-to-chroma QP mapping table is signaled, based on a first flag in the bitstream; and in response to the first flag being a first value, determining the signaled luma-to-chroma (P mapping table based on the bitstream.

Abstract: An image capture apparatus includes a skin map generation processing unit and an image composition unit. The skin map generation processing unit detects a skin color area in an image. The skin map generation processing unit detects a saturated area of high value and low saturation in the image. The image composition unit executes processing of correcting the skin color area detected by the skin map generation processing unit by using the saturated area detected by the skin map generation processing unit.

Abstract: A detecting unit detects subjects from an image photographed by a first camera and an image photographed by a second camera different from the first camera, a deciding unit decides whether a first subject photographed by the first camera and a second subject photographed by the second camera are a same subject, and a generating unit generates color correction information based on information indicating color of plural sets of the subjects decided as the same subject by the deciding unit. Thus, it is possible to reduce a difference of color between plural cameras even in the case where the photographing ranges of the plural cameras do not overlap.

Abstract: Data acquisition devices for analyzing reference objects and systems for monitoring turbine component deformation are provided. A data acquisition device has a longitudinal axis and includes a lens assembly and an image capture device in communication with the lens assembly for receiving and processing light from the lens assembly to generate images. The data acquisition device further includes a light source and a light tube coupled at a rear end to the light source.
