Abstract: According to one embodiment, a moving object contour extraction apparatus includes a contour acquisition unit and a contour correction unit. The contour acquisition unit is configured to acquire a contour of a moving object in each image slice. The contour correction unit is configured to correct the contours of the moving object in image slices of at least one image slice time series based on motion trend information of the moving object in each of a plurality of image slice time series.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a system for making a decision about virtual machine migration includes a source host platform, configured to send a migration request to a Migration Authority (MA), and to migrate the virtual machine to a target host platform according to a received migration decision-making result. The MA is configured to perform security checks on the source host platform and the target host platform, to obtain a first evaluation result of the source host platform and a second evaluation result of the target host platform, acquire a third evaluation result of the virtual machine, and return a corresponding migration decision-making result to the source host platform. The corresponding migration decision-making result indicates whether the virtual machine is permitted to be migrated; and the target host platform of the virtual machine to be migrated, is configured to accept the virtual machine to be migrated.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus may include: a first registration device for performing, by taking a first input image of two overlapped input images having an overlapped as a reference image, a first registration on a second input image, to find, in the second input image, a second pixel which is matched with each first pixel located in the overlapped area of the reference image; an output pixel location determination device for calculating, a location of an output pixel which is located in the overlapped area of the output image and corresponds to the first pixel, wherein the locations of the first and second pixels are respectively weighted, and the shorter the distance from the first pixel to a non-overlapped area of the reference image is, the greater a weight of the location of the first pixel is; and an output pixel value determination device for calculating a pixel value.
