  • Patent number: 11551060
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include generating a three-dimensional (3D) feature map for a digital image using a fully convolutional network (FCN). The 3D feature map may be configured to identify features of the digital image and identify an image region for each identified feature. The method may also include generating a region composition graph that includes the identified features and image regions. The region composition graph may be configured to model mutual dependencies between features of the 3D feature map. The method may further include performing a graph convolution on the region composition graph to determine a feature aesthetic value for each node according to the weightings in the node's weighted connecting segments, and calculating a weighted average for each node's feature aesthetic value to provide a combined level of aesthetic appeal for the digital image. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10620826
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a user input (e.g., a one-touch user input), performing segmentation to generate multiple candidate regions of interest (ROIs) in response to the user input, and performing ROI fusion to generate a final ROI (e.g., for a computer vision application). In some cases, the segmentation may include motion-based segmentation, color-based segmentation, or a combination thereof. Further, in some cases, the ROI fusion may include intraframe (or spatial) ROI fusion, temporal ROI fusion, or a combination thereof.
