MACHINE LEARNING BASED IMAGE ADJUSTMENT

Abstract:

An imaging system can obtain image data, for instance from an image sensor. The imaging system can supply the image data as input data to a machine learning system, which can generate one or more maps based on the image data. Each map can identify strengths at which a certain image processing function is to be applied to each pixel of the image data. Different maps can be generated for different image processing functions, such as noise reduction, sharpening, or color saturation. The imaging system can generate a modified image based on the image data and the one or more maps, for instance by applying each of one or more image processing functions in accordance with each of the one or more maps. The imaging system can supply the image data and the one or more maps to a second machine learning system to generate the modified image.
