  • Patent number: 10001868
    Abstract: An information processing method, an information processing device and an electronic apparatus with a touch screen are provided. The method includes: obtaining a first parameter value of the touch screen at instant T1; obtaining a second parameter value of the touch screen at instant T2 after instant T1, where an instant T3 is defined between instant T1 and instant T2, and the instant T3 corresponds to a third parameter value, where the third parameter value is greater than or equal to the first parameter value and any one of parameter values corresponding to instants between instant T1 and instant T2; and generating an operation response instruction in a case that the second parameter value is greater than a preset parameter value and a correspondence among the first parameter value, the second parameter value and the third parameter value meets a preset condition.

  • Patent number: 9959466
    Abstract: An object tracking apparatus is configured to determine, according to a predetermined object region containing an object in an initial image of an image sequence, an object region estimated to contain the object in each subsequent image of the image sequence. Moreover, the object tracking apparatus is allowed to adapt the size of the object region obtained through tracking to the change in the shape or size of the object, and to avoid a tracking error.

  • Patent number: 8781232
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus and method are disclosed. The image processing apparatus may include: a feature acquiring device configured to acquire values of a plurality of features of each pixel block in an object region of an image frame, each pixel block containing N×M pixels, N?1, M?1; an estimating device configured to estimate capability, of each of the plurality of features of each pixel block, of reflecting difference between background and an object in the image frame according to the object region and the background in the image frame; and a feature weighting device configured to assign a weight to each of the plurality of features according to the capability of each feature reflecting difference between background and the object, to emphasize a feature corresponding to a stronger capability.
