Variable-granularity based image warping

Abstract:

A method includes obtaining an image via an image sensor. The method includes determining a first perceptual quality value that is associated with a first portion of the image. The method includes determining a first image perceptual quality warping function that is based on the first perceptual quality value and an image warping map. The first image perceptual quality warping function is characterized by a first warping granularity level that is a function of the first perceptual quality value. The method includes warping the first portion of the image according to the first image perceptual quality warping function.
