  • Patent number: 11875491
    Abstract: An image processing system comprising: a computer readable medium and at least one processor configured to provide a machine learning architecture for image processing. In particular, keyframes are selected for modification by a visual artist, and the modifications are used for training the machine learning architecture. The modifications are then automatically propagated to remaining frames requiring modification through interpolation or extrapolation through processing remaining frames through the trained machine learning architecture. The generated modified frames or frame portions can then be inserted into an original video to generate a modified video where the modifications have been propagated. Example usages include automatic computational approaches for aging/de-aging and addition/removal of tattoos or other visual effects.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10417820
    Abstract: A digital Earth system based upon a hexagonal subdivision of a polyhedron representation of the Earth utilizes a computer-implemented method for assigning identifiers. The method comprises defining a tessellation of hexagonal cells, the tessellation having a first axis and a second axis, the first axis being perpendicular to a first side of the hexagonal cells, the second axis being 120 degrees from the first axis and being perpendicular to a second side of the hexagonal cells; selecting an origin cell for the tessellation and assigning a unique identifier comprising a first value and a second value thereto; and assigning a unique identifier to each cell other than the origin cell, the unique identifier for each of these cells comprising a first vector value and a second value, the first vector value and the second vector value being indicative of the location of the cell to the origin cell along the first and second axis respectively.
