  • Patent number: 10678846
    Abstract: In a method for detecting an object in an input image, an input image vector representing the input image is generated by performing a regional maximum activations of convolutions (R-MAC) using a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to the input image and using regions for the R-MAC defined by applying a region proposal network (RPN) to the output of the CNN applied to the input image. Likewise, a reference image vector representing a reference image depicting the object is generated by performing the R-MAC using the CNN applied to the reference image and using regions for the R MAC defined by applying the RPN to the output of the CNN applied to the reference image. A similarity metric between the input image vector and the reference image vector is computed, and the object is detected as present in the input image if the similarity metric satisfies a detection criterion.

  • Patent number: 9928440
    Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and apparatus for detecting a window in a display are disclosed. For example, the method includes scanning pixels within each frame of a plurality of frames that is displayed via a sliding window, extracting one or more features from each pixel within the sliding window, applying a classification function to classify a subset of potential pixels comprising the each pixel within the sliding window as corner pixels based on the one or more features that match predefined features associated with the corner pixels and detecting the window based on the corner pixels and additional pixels within a boundary defined by the corner pixels.
