Abstract: The present disclosure includes systems and methods for color transfer. The method includes receiving a target image, and determining dominant source colors. The method further includes transforming the target image into a color model including a target luminance component and a target color information component. Additionally, the method includes segmenting the target image into a plurality of target segments based on the target color information component or the target luminance component and extracting dominant target colors from the target image by extracting information for at least one of the dominant target colors from each target segment of the plurality of target segments. Further, the method includes generating a color mapping relationship between the dominant target colors and the dominant source colors, and creating a recolored target image using the color mapping relationship.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cascade thresholding system to find an optimal threshold for binarization of a gray scale image. The cascade system can perform different levels of quantization on an input image. The cascade system can process each quantized image across multiple threshold levels. SSIM scores can be calculated for the quantized images to determine a best image for binarization. A best binary image can be generated.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for performing multi-stage detection and classification of cancer regions from digitized images of biopsy slides. Novel methods for processing the digitized images to improve feature extraction and structure identification are disclosed, including but not limited to the use of quaternions, logarithmic mappings of color channels, and application of wavelets to logarithmic color channel mappings. The extracted features are utilized in improved machine learning algorithms that are further optimized to analyze multiple color channels in multiple dimensions. The improved machine learning algorithms include techniques for accelerating the training of the algorithms, making their application to biopsy detection and classification practical for the first time.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for image recoloring and color standardization. The invention relates, in part, to standardization of digitized whole-slide histopathology images and digitized images of tissue microarrays (TMA). Various aspects of the invention are directed to the detection of color feature points from 3D histogram of a reference image (considered a well-stained image) and the region-based transference of color statistics between a reference image and a target image (image to be standardize). Another aspect of the present invention is an image/video colorfulness measure. A further aspect of the invention includes multimedia analytics application, including a retrieval application. Another aspect of the invention is directed to on-line viewing and recoloring of images, including but not limited to face and clothing.
