Publication number: 20130170759Abstract: A method to recognize a facial image is described. An input facial image is normalized by scaling and rotation angle using methods of eye pupil centers detection. The input facial image is further normalized by lighting intensity. Template images are obtained either by the processing of certain images taken from different face positions, or by a preliminary reconstruction of a 3D face model based on stereo-pair images. Using the 3D model template, facial images are generated at different rotation angles. Distances between the input facial image and the template image are calculated from the Discrete Cosine Transformation (DCT) features, defined by overlapped blocks of these images. The facial image is recognized based on these distances.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2012Publication date: July 4, 2013Applicant: VIEWDLE INC.Inventors: Volodymyr Kyyko, Vyacheslav Matsello, Andriy Tsariov, Yuriy Musatenko, Mykhailo Schlesinger, Kostiantyn Kyiko, Oleksii Nedashkivskyi

Patent number: 8457368Abstract: A method for processing digital media is described. The method, in one example embodiment, includes identification of objects in a video stream by detecting, for each video frame, an object in the video frame and selectively associating the object with an object cluster. The method may further include comparing the object in the object cluster to a reference object and selectively associating object data of the reference object with all objects within the object cluster based on the comparing. The method may further include manually associating the object data of the reference object with all objects within the object duster having no associated reference object and populating a reference database with the reference object for the object cluster.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2012Date of Patent: June 4, 2013Assignee: Viewdle Inc.Inventors: Ivan Kovtun, Oleksandr Zhukov, Yuriy Musatenko, Mykhailo Schlesinger

Patent number: 8150169Abstract: Embodiments of computer implemented methods and systems for object clustering and identification are described. One example embodiment includes receiving an unclustered video object, determining a first distance between the unclustered video object and an arbitrary representative video object, the arbitrary representative video object being selected from representative video objects, estimating distances between the unclustered video object and the representative video objects based on the first distance and precalculated distances between the arbitrary representative video object and the representative video objects, and, based on the estimated distances, selectively associating the unclustered video object with a video cluster, thereby producing a clustered video object.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2008Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Viewdle Inc.Inventors: Ivan Kovtun, Yuriy Musatenko, Mykhailo Schlesinger

Patent number: 8064641Abstract: A method for processing digital media is described. In one example embodiment, the method may include detecting an unknown object in a video frame, receiving inputs representing probable identities of the unknown object in the video frame from various sources, and associating each input with the unknown object detected in the video frame. The received inputs may be processed, compared with reference data and, based on the comparison, probable identities of the object associated with the input derived. The method may further include retrieving a likelihood of the input to match the unknown object from historical data and producing weights corresponding to the inputs, fusing the inputs and the relative weight associated with each input, and identifying the unknown object based on a comparison of the weighted distances from the unknown identify to a reference identity.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2007Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: Viewdle Inc.Inventors: Yegor Anchyshkin, Yuriy Musatenko, Kostyantyn Milshteyn, Volodymyr Kyyko, Ivan Kovtun, Vyacheslav Matsello, Mykhailo Schlesinger
