Abstract

A method for generating an augmented set of images involves data collection, data processing, and data augmentation processing performed to merge images. The data collection comprises the steps of choosing objects as selected objects, choosing configurations for imaging of the selected objects, and taking pictures with a second camera to create a set of raw object images. The data processing comprises the steps of performing dynamic range adjustment on the raw object image, performing color correction for corrected images, and removing uniform background from the corrected images to result in object images. The data augmentation processing performed to merge images comprises the steps of performing range simulation or magnification for resampled images, adding blur to the resampled images, adding noise to create final object images, and merging the final object images to the field images of a first camera to create a set of augmented images.
