IP3 2021-Video & Image Processing 2 (LOT 12920)

This lot is generally related to video processing. Techniques are disclosed for automatic scale selection for feature space analysis and partitioning for applications such as video segmentation. The technique receives a video, determines a color bandwidth and a local spatial bandwidth for each pixel and clusters the video using a variable bandwidth mean shift by applying the bandwidths. Few techniques also determine data modes using the process. Few more techniques select multiple analysis scales, partition the data into modes, determine most stable mean/covariance pair and select the covariance as a variable bandwidth. The technology may be implemented in video background modelling, object or human tracking, video segmentation, real time image and video processing, computer vision, animation, etc.
