Method and apparatus for automated image analysis of biological specimens

A method and apparatus for automated cell analysis of biological specimens automatically scans at a low magnification to acquire images which are analyzed to determine candidate cell objects of interest. The low magnification images are converted from a first color space to a second color space. The color space converted image is then low pass filtered and compared to a threshold to remove artifacts and background objects from the candidate object of interest pixels of the color converted image. The candidate object of interest pixels are morphologically processed to group candidate object of interest pixels together into groups which are compared to blob parameters to identify candidate objects of interest which correspond to cells or other structures relevant to medical diagnosis of the biological specimen. The location coordinates of the objects of interest are stored and additional images of the candidate cell objects are acquired at high magnification. The high magnification images are analyzed in the same manner as the low magnification images to confirm the candidate objects of interest which are objects of interest. A high magnification image of each confirmed object of interest is stored for later review and evaluation by a pathologist.

System and method for changing hair color in digital images

A system and method for digital hair coloring is described. A starting image of a subject including a hair region is obtained. At least one foreground selection of the starting image is obtained, the foreground selection including a portion of the hair region. At least one background selection of the starting image excluding the hair region is obtained. A matte defining a calculated foreground area of the starting image is calculated based on the foreground selection and the background selection. A target color distribution based on a target hair color is obtained. A color image is generated by applying a color transformation based on the target color distribution to at least the calculated foreground area of the starting image. An output image is generated from the colored image and the starting image.

Production of color conversion profile for printing

A system is configured to calculate an evaluation index of sample ink amount data from a color difference evaluation index and an image quality evaluation index and create a profile on the basis of a sample with a high rating value. When the image quality evaluation index is predicted, the image quality evaluation index corresponding to any sample ink amount data is estimated based on a profile produced on the basis on actual evaluation. A printer driver is configured to create a plurality of profiles by using different indices in this system and to perform color conversion by using the plurality of profiles. The plurality of profiles are appropriately selected according to the user's needs, printing conditions, and type of printing object image.

Method of embedding digital watermark, method of extracting embedded digital watermark and apparatuses for the same

A color conversion module 42 carries out color conversion of original color image data Grgb from the RGB color system into the CMYK color system to obtain color-converted original color image data Gcmyk (step S104). A DCT module 44 applies DCT (discrete cosine transform) over the whole color-converted original color image data Gcmyk to generate DCT coefficients Dcmyk (step S106). An embedding module 46 embeds the watermark information s into the components C, M, Y, and K of the DCT coefficients Dcmyk (step S108). An IDCT module 48 applies IDCT (inverse discrete cosine transform) onto DCT coefficients D'cmyk with the watermark information s embedded therein to generate embedding-processed color image data G'cmyk (step S110). The color conversion module 42 carries out color conversion of the embedding-processed color image data G'cmyk from the CMYK color system into the RGB color system to obtain embedding-processed color image data G'rgb (step S112). This arrangement does not require any correction of the position or the shape of image blocks in the process of extracting the embedded watermark information.

Color gamut compression apparatus and method

A color gamut compression apparatus for converting a source color generated by an information-input apparatus into a target color inside a color gamut reproducible by an information-output apparatus. The color gamut compression apparatus computes a point of compression such that the point of compression lies on a substantially straight line connecting a point of convergence and a source color, and lies inside the color gamut of the information-output apparatus.

Driver fatigue detecting system based on smart mobile phone

The invention discloses a driver fatigue detecting system based on a smart mobile phone. A video colleting module (1) collects images of the face and the eyes of a driver. An image preprocessing module (2) removes image noise through the gray scale adjustment of the image pixel points. A face detecting and locating module (3) achieves face detection and locating based on image pixel nonlinear color transformation. A face following module (4) improves the speed of detection of the face area of the driver through the correlation between every two adjacent images. An eye detecting module (5) conducts binarization on the images based on the improved horizontal Sobel edge detection method. An eye feature parameter extracting module (6) extracts the pupil opening degree feature parameters. A fatigue judging module (7) judges whether the driver is fatigue when driving a vehicle based on the PERCLOS method. According to the driver fatigue detecting system based on the smart mobile phone, the face detection is rapid, efficient and accurate, the requirement for the resolution is low, a camera of an ordinary mobile phone can achieve image collection and detection, popularization and application are convenient, cost is low, and the accuracy is high.

Color transformation for processing digital images

A method of transforming the color appearance of a plurality of digital images includes receiving a plurality of digital images from a capture medium wherein each digital image includes a plurality of pixel values relating to at least three basic colors; calculating a color correction transform by using a non-linear adjustment that is independent of the digital images and which corrects an under-exposure condition as a function of the capture medium; and a linear functional relationship dependent upon the pixels of the basic colors, the linear functional relationship defining an exposure-level-dependent estimate of gray corresponding to the photographic response of the capture medium; and using the color correction transform to modify the pixels of the plurality of digital images wherein the pixels within a digital image are transformed with varying degrees of color modification as a function of exposure.
