  • Patent number: 10510147
    Abstract: An image processing device includes: a plurality of label data generation units which generate label data in which a predetermined label is assigned to each of a plurality of pixels in each of a plurality of divided images; a plurality of label integration information generation units which correspond to the respective label data generation units and generate label integration information representing association of labels included in the label data in order to integrate label data generated by a corresponding label data generation unit and label data generated by another label data generation unit; a plurality of label integration units which generate integrated label data in which respective pieces of label data corresponding to neighboring divided images are integrated; and a label integration processing control unit which distributes the label data to the respective label integration units such that computational loads to integrate the label data are equalized.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10311553
    Abstract: An image-processing device includes: a gradient data generation unit which sequentially targets pixels, and on the basis of a luminance value, generates gradient data in which each pixel is represented using a first label of a value indicating a direction toward a pixel having a higher luminance value or a second label of a value indicating that the luminance value of the pixel is higher than all pixels located around the pixel; a plurality of region label generation units which set each pixel represented by the second label as a peak pixel, divide regions into regions including pixels belonging to the same peak pixel on the basis of peak coordinates indicating the positions of peak pixels, and generate region label data; and a peak pixel distribution unit which distributes each peak pixel to each of the region label generation units such that loads of computations are approximately equalized.
