Abstract: A multi-pass algorithm to reduce ringing artifacts in image processing, e.g. from noise removal and deblur effects, is described. One embodiment includes processes: forming a matte of areas in an original image around strong edges to produce an edgeMatte image, e.g. by using an edge detection algorithm to find edges and dilating the detected lines using a matte dilation technique; producing an originalNoEdges image without any of the strong edges; running an image processing algorithm, e.g. denoise or deblur algorithm, on the originalNoEdges image to produce a resultNoEdges image; running the image processing algorithm on the original image to produce a resultWithRinging image; selectively combining the resultNoEdges image and the resultWithRinging image using the edgeMatte image.

Abstract: A wire tracking system is described that provides a method and system for automatically locating wires in a digital image and tracking the located wires through a sequence of digital images. The wire tracking system is particularly good at removing wires from complex shots where background replacement is difficult. The wire tracking system performs complex signal processing to automatically remove the wire from the original image while preserving grain and background detail. Thus, the wire tracking system provides a reliable method of automatically identifying wires and replacing the wires with a reconstructed background image, and frees artists to make other enhancements to the scene.
