In the process of identification it is defined whether the said printed form was used for printing the document-candidate, at that a stage of capture with high resolution of the image of a part of the said document-candidate is carried out, corresponding to the relevant part of the document, the geometrical characteristics of which was preserved. Then, the stage of extraction from the image of the said document-candidate of geometrical characteristics is carried out, which corresponds to the stored geometrical characteristics, and the stage of determining whether the measure of correlation of the geometrical characteristics exceeds the said document-candidate and the stored geometrical characteristics of the predetermined limit value.

Protected structure containing microelectronic device, and watermark or its imitation

Protected structure containing microelectronic device, and watermark or its imitation

Invention relates to the field of manufacturing security documents. The protected structure (1) comprises: a fibrous layer (2a, 2b); substrate (3) with a translucent area; a watermark or its imitation (8a, 8b) applied on the fibrous layer (2a, 2b) and overlapped in the plan at least partially with the translucent area of the substrate, so that in this area the watermark or its imitation (8a, 8b) is visible against the light through the protected structure (1) only from the side of the fibrous layer; and the microelectronic device (4, 10) providing a contact or remote communication.

Method of encoding/decoding multi-view video sequence based on adaptive local adjustment of brightness of key frames without transmitting additional parameters (versions)

Method of encoding/decoding multi-view video sequence based on adaptive local adjustment of brightness of key frames without transmitting additional parameters (versions)

Invention relates to computer engineering and specifically to digital signal processing techniques. Disclosed is a method for adaptive local adjustment of change in brightness of a key frame for encoding a multi-view video sequence, in which a pixel value of the current encoded unit belonging to the encoded frame and a pixel value of the reference unit belonging to the key frame are obtained. The method further involves obtaining recovered, i.e. encoded and then decoded, pixel values that are neighbouring with respect to the current unit of the encoded frame, and pixel values that are neighbouring with respect to the reference unit of the key frame. Pixel differing from the overall set of recovered pixels are then excluded from consideration according to a predetermined criterion.

Method and apparatus for express inspection of documents and bond paper with anti-counterfeit features

Method and apparatus for express inspection of documents and bond paper with anti-counterfeit features

Invention relates to electro-optical instrument-making and can be used in forensics for express inspection, investigation, identification and authentication of bond paper and documents. A library of express inspection scenarios is created in advance based on experience in inspecting similar documents. Each scenario includes one of the sequences of processing the document to be inspected with a set of optical radiation sources and converting the reflected light flux from the inspected region of the document to a video image. A suitable scenario is selected based on initial parameters and the document is analysed.

Method of evaluating photographic, film and video materials containing undesirable image (versions)

Method of evaluating photographic, film and video materials containing undesirable image (versions)

Invention relates to image content processing means. The method involves browsing the object to evaluated and identifying features of an undesirable image of a first group - dynamic features and of a second group - static features. If a feature of a first group or a second group is identified, features of a third group (adverse health consequences) and of a fourth group (shooting conditions) are identified. The method involves formalised analysis of the evaluation of the object based on said groups of features, determining a quantitative expression of the identified features based on factorial analysis taking into account the factorial load coefficient, summation of quantitative indicators of the identified groups of features and determining presence of an undesirable image.

Method for segmentation of complex-structure half-tone images based on composite morphologic operators

Method for segmentation of complex-structure half-tone images based on composite morphologic operators

Invention relates to digital image processing means. In the method, said operator is formed from linear structure-forming elements with different orientation parameters relative the raster of an image of equal length; each filtered image is obtained through interaction of the linear structure-forming element of the composite morphologic operator with the original image; pixel brightness in the filtered image is obtained by performing, for each pixel of the original image, three morphologic operations of interaction of the original image with the linear structure-forming element.
