Patents by Inventor Yotam Ater

Yotam Ater has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12256179
    Abstract: Systems and methods for image processing, and specifically for color reconstruction of an output signal from a multispectral imaging sensor (MIS), are described. Embodiments of the present disclosure receive image sensor data from an image sensor of a camera device; apply a non-linear color space mapping to the image sensor data using a neural network to obtain image data, wherein the non-linear color space mapping comprises a non-negative homogeneous function; and store the image data in a memory of the camera device.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 14, 2022
    Date of Patent: March 18, 2025
    Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.
    Inventors: Yotam Ater, Heejin Choi, Natan Bibelnik, Woo-shik Kim, Evgeny Soloveichik, Ortal Glatt
  • Publication number: 20240179428
    Abstract: An image processing unit includes an imaging sensor having a pixel array, a memory storing an artificial neural network (ANN), and an image signal processor configured to operate the ANN on an image output by the imaging sensor to predict an error value of a pixel of the image and correct the pixel using the predicted error value.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 11847189
    Abstract: A method of fusing frame based image sensors (FBIS) images with dynamic vision sensor (DVS) event data includes concatenating a plurality of image tensors into a single image input tensor; concatenating a plurality of event tensors into a single event input tensor; concatenating the event input tensor and the image input tensor wherein a single input tensor containing data from both the image input tensor and the event input tensor is generated; processing the single input tensor with a fully convolutional neural network (FCNN), wherein in a contracting path of the FCNN, a number of channels is increased, and in an expansion path of the FCNN, the number of channels is decreased; and combining channels wherein an output image tensor is generated with a reduced number of channels.
