  • Method and apparatus for converting a digital image
    Patent number: 11568515
    Abstract: An embodiment method for converting an initial digital image into a converted digital image, electronic chip, system and computer program product are disclosed, the initial digital image comprising a set of pixels, the pixels being associated respectively with colors, the initial digital image being acquired by an acquisition device, and the converted digital image able to be used by a neural network. The embodiment method comprises redimensioning of the initial digital image in order to obtain an intermediate digital image, the redimensioning being carried out by a reduction in the number of pixels of the initial image, modification of a format of one of the pixels of the intermediate digital image in order to obtain a converted digital image, the modification being carried out, after the redimensioning, by increasing the number of bits used to represent the color of the pixel.
