Abstract
A directed pattern enhancement method receives a learning image and pattern enhancement directive. Pattern enhancement learning is performed using the learning image and the pattern enhancement directive to generate pattern enhancement recipe. An application image is received and a pattern enhancement application is performed using the application image and the pattern enhancement recipe to generate pattern enhanced image. A recognition thresholding is performed using the pattern enhanced image to generate recognition result. The pattern enhancement directive consists of background directive, patterns to enhance directive, and patterns to suppress directive. A partitioned modeling method receives an image region and performs feature extraction on the image region to generate characterization feature. A hierarchical partitioning is performed using the characterization feature to generate hierarchical partitions. A model generation is performed using the hierarchical partitions to generate partition model. The partitioned modeling further performs a partitioned matching step that matches an input point to the partition model to generate a matching score output. A partition model update method receives a partition model and input data for model update. A partition model update is performed using the partition model and the data to generate an updated partition model.
