We address the problem of estimating camera pose relative to a known scene, given a single RGB image. We extend recent advances in scene coordinate regression forests for camera relocalization in RGB-D images to use RGB features, enabling camera relocalization from a single RGB image. Furthermore, we integrate random RGB features and sparse feature matching in an efficient and accurate way, bro...

RGB-D cameras (such as the Microsoft Kinect) are novel sensing systems that capture RGB images along with per-pixel depth information. In this paper we investigate how such cameras can be used for building dense 3D maps of indoor environments. Such maps have applications in robot navigation, manipulation, semantic mapping, and telepresence. We present RGB-D Mapping, a full 3D mapping system tha...

A pixel-level fusion technique for RGB representation of multispectral images is proposed. The technique results in highly correlated RGB components, a fact which occurs in natural colour images and is strictly related to the colour perception attributes of the human eye. Accordingly, specific properties for the covariance matrix of the final RGB image are demanded. Mutual information is employ...

Access to large, diverse RGB-D datasets is critical for training RGB-D scene understanding algorithms. However, existing datasets still cover only a limited number of views or a restricted scale of spaces. In this paper, we introduce Matterport3D, a large-scale RGB-D dataset containing 10,800 panoramic views from 194,400 RGB-D images of 90 building-scale scenes. Annotations are provided with su...

A disordered chiral conglomerate, the random grain boundary (RGB) phase, has been observed below the smectic A liquid crystal phase of an achiral, hockey-stick molecule. In cells, the RGB phase appears dark between crossed polarizers but decrossing the polarizers reveals large left- and right-handed chiral domains with opposite optical rotation. Freeze-fracture transmission electron microscopy ...

I present an algorithm for computationally mixing screen colors (RGB colors) subtractively, written for a general audience. The question it addresses is, “Given two colors specified by their RGB triplets, what RGB triplet should be used to represent the color that would arise if the two colors were mixed like paint colors, i.e., mixed subtractively?” The only way I can think of doing this in a ...

Six different methods for white-balancing digital images were compared in terms of their ability to produce white-balanced colors close to those viewed under a specific viewing illuminant. The six methods were: native camera RGB, XYZ, CAM02, ITU Rec BT.709 RGB, sharpened camera RGB, and illuminant-dependent. 4096 different sets of camera sensitivities were synthesized; 170 objects were evaluate...

H.264/AVC High 4:4:4 Intra/Predictive profiles supports RGB 4:4:4 sequences for high fidelity video. RGB color planes rather than YCbCr color planes are preferred by high-fidelity video applications such as digital cinema, medical imaging, and UHDTV. Several RGB coding tools have therefore been developed to improve the coding efficiency of RGB video. In this paper, we propose a new method to ex...

in the present work the magnitudes of pigments in the synthetic leather, were measured by means of scanner. initially synthetic leather samples pigmented by three different pigments of yellow, blue and red colors were prepared. then the pigmented samples were scanned, and the values of rgb of images were calculated. the artificial neural network (ann) method used to make relation between rgb va...

This paper describes and compares two color spaces – YUV and RGB, taking into account possible human-computer interaction applications. Human perception-oriented properties are compared, including not only file size or bandwidth, but also subjective visibility of artifacts. 1700 tests on a group of 170 people were performed to describe the subjective quality of compressed YUV and RGB images. Th...
