Google With MIT Developed A New Algorithm To Remove The Window Reflection From Your Photos

We have all tried to take a picture through a window of a gorgeous view, only to have our own mug reflected back in the photo.Photographers are often stymied by their own reflection or that of their camera when shooting through glass, but researchers at MIT and Google Research have developed new software that has the ability to remove reflections, dust, and raindrops that make their way into your pictures.

The algorithm, building on work done by Daniel Zoran and Yair Weiss of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, divides images into 8-by-8 blocks of pixels and determines each pixel’s correlation with another. Their technique is able to identify which minuscule sections of the photo are part of the reflection and which are the actual image seen behind the glass.

The researchers in a video explaining the technology behind the software said that:
“ Photographers are often forced to take images through obstructing elements ,” said the researchers in a video explaining the technology behind the software. “ For instance when taking images through a glass window, reflections from indoor objects often obstruct the scene we wish to capture. Our algorithm automatically decomposes the sequence of images into a background and reflection component to produce a new clean image where the reflection has been removed.
Similarly when photographing a scene thought a fence we would like to remove the occluding fence from our image.Again our algorithm is able to decompose the sequence into the background and foreground to produce the desired de-fenced image.”Sadly we’ll be waiting quite a while however, as currently photos are being processed by a beefy eight-core Intel Xeon CPU and 64GB of RAM.”

A non-optimised implementation takes around 20 minutes, while a low-resolution photo being analysed by a Windows Phone prototype app takes two minutes.
The researchers will be presenting their paper at the Siggraph computer graphics and interaction conference in Los Angeles later this month.

Create A Typographic Portrait Using Photoshop

By

-
Typographic portrait

Typography means playing with text.Today we are going to show you the simplest tutorial in typography.In this tutorial we are going to overlay some  of your favourite words over your image.This is the basic typography tutorial for beginners,In this tutorial we will also teach you how to create your own brushes.So lets start:

►Step 1


Open the image you like to give typographic effect.
I prefer  close up images will be better for this tutorial.Name the layer as “Model”

1

►Step 2


Now only cut out the face part of the image or delete the part you didn’t want to give typographic effect.Then you will get an image something like below one.

3

►Step 3


Now create a new layer below the “Model” layer.And name it as “Wall“.Fill the “Wall” layer with “#ffffff” color.

4

►Step 4


We are going to Desaturate the image file so select “Model” layer and press “Ctrl+Shift+U” or you can Desaturate it by going to “Image→Adjustments→Desaturate”

5

►Step 5


Again go to “Image→Adjustments→Posterize” and set the value as “4“.

6

►Step 6


Hide “Model” layer for a while.
And using Type Tool with any font and color “#000000“,type some words that you want to appear on your image.

7

►Step 7


Now we are going to make some brushes.
Focus on your Text layer and with the help of “Rectangular Marquee Tool” select the first word.

8

After selecting the first word go to “Edit→Define Brush Preset” and then name your new brush.

9

Similarly select other words and create brushes for them too.So here i created 5 different brushes for my 5 words.

9.1

►Step 8

Now delete Text layer and Unhide “Model” and “Wall” layers.

12

►Step 9


Now we are going to select each type of shades in “Model” layer.
So with the help of “Rectangular Marquee Tool” we are going to select all the black color area in “Model” layer.
So first select a small portion of black color like below image.

13

Then go to “Select→Similar” and you can see that all black colour region on “Model” layer are selected

14

►Step 10


Hide “Model” layer leaving the selection loaded.
And create a new layer above “Model” layer and name it as “Typo“.And you will get something similar to below image.

15

►Step 11


And here we are going to use those brushes that we created in Step 7.
Focus on newly created layer-“Typo” and brush those words with different size on those selected area.
You can select the brush model and change its size by Right-click on any part of document.
And you will get something similar to below image.

16

►Step 12


Like that select a small part of another shade and and brush it.And brush the entire image with words.
And now unhide “Model” layer and adjust its colors and make blend mode as “Luminosity” and you will get an image similar to below one.

17

►Step 13


Just fill the “Wall” layer with different color.And you will get your typographic portrait like below one.
