  • Patent number: 11024006
    Abstract: A portable electronic device may include an image signal processor that includes a clipping circuit, a pyramid generator circuit, and an image fusion processor. The clipping circuit clips pixel values that are under-exposed or over-exposed. The pyramid generator circuit applies a filter to the pixels of the image to generate a filtered image. Some of the filtered pixels may be generated from one or more clipped pixel values. The pyramid generator circuit identifies those filtered pixels that are generated from one or more clipped pixel values and marks the identified filtered pixels with a tag. The pyramid generator circuit decimates the filtered image to generate a downscaled image, which may include one or more filtered pixels that are marked with the tags. The image fusion processor fuses the downscaled image with another image. The pixels that are marked with the tags may be disregarded in the fusion process.

  • Patent number: 11010870
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to two stage multi-scale processing of an image. A first stage processing circuitry generates an unscaled single color version of the image that undergoes noise reduction before generating a high frequency component of the unscaled single color version. A scaler generates a first downscaled version of the image comprising a plurality of color components. A second stage processing circuitry generates a plurality of sequentially downscaled images based on the first downscaled version. The second stage processing circuitry processes the first downscaled version and the downscaled images to generate a processed version of the first downscaled version. The unscaled single color high frequency component and the processed version of the first downscaled version of the image are merged to generate a processed version of the image.

  • Patent number: 8954409
    Abstract: In general, techniques of the present disclosure relate to synchronizing concurrent access to multiple portions of a data structure. In one example, a method includes, sequentially selecting a plurality of requests from a request queue, wherein at least one of the requests specifies a plurality of requested synchronization objects for corresponding candidate portions of a data structure to which to apply an operation associated with a data element. The method also includes querying one or more sets of identifiers to determine whether one or more of the requested synchronizations objects specified by the selected request are acquirable. The method also includes acquiring each of the requested synchronization objects that are acquirable. The method includes, responsive to acquiring all of the one or more requested synchronization objects, selecting a subset of the candidate portions of the data structure and applying the operation only to the selected subset of the candidate portions.

  • Publication number: 20060229923
    Abstract: A method for workflow management includes modeling a workflow as a set of nodes linked by transitions. At least one of the nodes is defined as an action triggered by a situation using a complex event processing (CEP) engine. During execution of the workflow, the CEP engine is invoked in order to detect the situation, and the action is performed responsively to detection of the situation by the CEP engine.
