Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for generating a color map using a color space, the generating including selecting lightness points representing lightness values, generating a lightness plot based on the lightness points, the lightness plot non-linearly increasing from a minimum lightness value to a maximum lightness value, and selecting chromaticity points, where the chromaticity points are represented using a plurality of dimensions, and the chromaticity points representing chromaticity values. The method includes generating a chromaticity plot based on the chromaticity points, and associating chromaticity values along the chromaticity plot with respective lightness values along the lightness plot, the associating specifying a plurality of colors. The method also includes identifying an in-gamut range for an RGB representation of the plurality of colors, the RGB representation provided in an RGB color space, and converting the color map from the color space to the RGB color space.
Abstract:
A device receives an image for an active contour model, where the active contour model includes a first module and a second module. The device receives an initial contour for the image and the active contour model, and executes a speed function of the first module, based on the image and the initial contour, to generate a speed function result. The device executes a numerical minimization method of the second module, based on the image and the speed function result, to generate a final contour, and provides the image and the final contour for display.
Abstract:
A device is configured to determine a contour vector that delineates an object in an image from a remaining portion of the image, and to generate a hash value by applying a hash function to the contour vector. The device is configured to compare the hash value to a previous hash value generated by applying the hash function to a previous contour vector, where the previous contour vector is determined prior to determining the contour vector. The device is configured to determine that the hash value matches the previous hash value and, based on determining that the hash value matches the previous hash value, segment the image using the contour vector.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for providing an informal interface and a formal interface to a computing application using a computer is provided. The informal interface includes first routines, the first routines using an informal input format. The method also includes providing a formal interface using the computer, where the formal interface includes second routines. The second routines support developer functionality, and the second routines using a formal input format. The method includes receiving a first input having a first routine input format, the first routine input format complying with the informal input format, or a second input having a second routine input format, the second routine input format complying with the formal input format. The method includes processing the received first input or the received second input and performing a computing operation based on the processing.
Abstract:
A self-describing function object may be dynamically created based on a set of user provided parameters. In an implementation, a device may receive a request to create the function object based on one or more parameters and determine a number of ordered and hierarchical operations that correspond to the function object. The device may determine textual descriptions corresponding to what is performed by at least one of the ordered and hierarchical operations. The device may output documentation of the ordered and hierarchical operations included in the function object, the documentation including the textual descriptions arranged based on the determined order of the plurality of ordered and hierarchical operations.
