  • Publication number: 20140304278
    Abstract: A method of mapping a collection of images, or other higher dimensional items including text documents, and three-and-higher dimensional objects, onto a navigable grid for browsing via a user interface comprises obtaining for each of the images a list of nearest neighbor images and similarity scores for each nearest neighbor; placing a first image on a cell within a grid; from a respective list of nearest neighbors of said first image, finding images that maximize a compatibility score with images already placed on the grid and placing resulting images on neighboring cells; and continuing to place further images on the grid until all cells visible to a user are filled with images. As the user pans or zooms the grid, more cells move into the visible area of the screen and are filled with images in the same way.

  • Patent number: 8675115
    Abstract: A forward interpolation approach is disclosed for enabling a second version of an image to be constructed from a first version of the image. According to one implementation of the forward interpolation approach, pixels from the first version of the image are processed one row at a time. As the pixels in a row of pixels in the first version of the image are processed, they may cause pixel values on different rows of the second version of the image to be determined. Since the pixel values of the second version of the image are stored in output line buffers, this means that, at any particular point in time, there may be multiple partially filled output line buffers. It has been observed that the forward interpolation approach enables significant benefits (such as reduced storage requirements and reduced internal bandwidth and processing) to be achieved over a backward interpolation approach.

  • Patent number: 8577186
    Abstract: A forward interpolation approach is disclosed for enabling a second version of an image to be constructed from a first version of the image. According to one implementation, an input pixel from the first version of the image is forward mapped to the second version of the image to determine a set of candidate pixels that may be affected by the input pixel. Each candidate pixel is then backward mapped to the first version of the image to determine whether they are actually affected by the input pixel. For each candidate pixel that is actually affected by the input pixel, a pixel value is determined for that candidate pixel based at least in part upon the pixel value of the input pixel. By using this forward and backward mapping technique, forward interpolation can be implemented quickly and efficiently.
