IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18448204 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

  • An information processing apparatus is provided.
  • The apparatus includes units for obtaining the position and size of a subject in a frame.
  • The position and size are estimated using multiple estimation units.
  • The apparatus can decide an area of interest in a subsequent frame based on the obtained position and size information.

Potential Applications

  • Video surveillance systems
  • Object tracking in video editing software
  • Augmented reality applications

Problems Solved

  • Accurate subject tracking in consecutive frames
  • Efficient processing of video data
  • Improved object recognition in videos

Benefits

  • Enhanced accuracy in subject tracking
  • Streamlined video processing workflows
  • Increased efficiency in object recognition tasks


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided with an information processing apparatus. A first obtaining unit obtains a position and a size of a subject from an area of interest of a first frame by using a first estimation unit. A second obtaining unit obtains the position and the size of the subject in the first frame that a second estimation unit has estimated based on the position obtained by the first obtaining unit from the area of interest of the first frame. A first deciding unit decides an area of interest in a second frame which follows the first frame by using the position and the size obtained by the first obtaining unit and the position and the size obtained by the second obtaining unit.
