  • Patent number: 11887219
    Abstract: A method for training an image colorization model may include inputting a training input image into a colorization model and receive a predicted color map as an output of the colorization model. A first color distance may be calculated between a first pixel of the predicted color map and a second pixel of the predicted color map. A second color distance may be calculated between a third pixel included in a ground truth color map and a fourth pixel included in the ground truth colorization map. The third pixel and fourth pixel included in the ground truth color map may spatially correspond, respectively, with the first pixel and second pixel included in the predicted color map. The method may include adjusting parameters associated with the colorization model based on a neighborhood color loss function that evaluates a difference between the first color distance and the second color distance.

  • Patent number: 11837193
    Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods for off-axis color correction in dynamic image capture of video wall displays involve measuring color performance of specific LED tiles or video walls and providing a database to store the characteristics of these off-axis measurements for use in color correction. The database is accessible by a color correction engine associated directly or indirectly with the video rendering engine so that when combined with real-time information on camera view angle and field of view relative to the display, a color correction function can be incorporated into the rendering of the display portion within the field of view of the camera so as to reduce or eliminate off-axis color variations/distortions in the captured image.

  • Patent number: 11798227
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method are provided that are used to generate a three-dimensional model in which a more natural texture is set for an occlusion region of which a texture is not obtained from a two-dimensional image. A three-dimensional shape restoring section that generates a three-dimensional model on the basis of a two-dimensional image, and a texture processor that attaches a texture to the three-dimensional model are included. The texture processor acquires, from a DB, an existing texture similar to a texture acquired from the two-dimensional image, calculates a conversion function that is used so that the existing texture has a color closer to the color of the acquired texture, and sets, for a region of which a texture is not acquired from the two-dimensional image, a texture calculated by applying the conversion function to the existing texture.
