  • Generating spatial gradient maps for a person in an image
    Patent number: 11335027
    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a system is described. The system includes a pose estimator to identify a plurality of anatomical points on a person depicted in an image. A frame former of the system generates a frame for the person by connecting a first set of the plurality of anatomical points to form a skeleton and forming at least a head region and a torso region of the person based on a second set of the plurality of anatomical points. A map generator of the system generates a spatial gradient map projecting outwards from the frame. In the system, the spatial gradient map is based on pixel distance from the frame and an intensity along the gradient map indicates a pixels likelihood of form a part of the person.
