Automated selection of subjectively best image frames from burst captured image sequences

摘要

A “Best of Burst Selector,” or “BoB Selector,” automatically selects a subjectively best image from a single set of images of a scene captured in a burst or continuous capture mode, captured as a video sequence, or captured as multiple images of the scene over any arbitrary period of time and any arbitrary timing between images. This set of images is referred to as a burst set. Selection of the subjectively best image is achieved in real-time by applying a machine-learned model to the burst set. The machine-learned model of the BoB Selector is trained to select one or more subjectively best images from the burst set in a way that closely emulates human selection based on subjective subtleties of human preferences. Images automatically selected by the BoB Selector are presented to a user or saved for further processing.
