Abstract
Learning image processing tasks from scene reconstructions is described where the tasks may include but are not limited to: image de-noising, image in-painting, optical flow detection, interest point detection. In various embodiments training data is generated from a 2 or higher dimensional reconstruction of a scene and from empirical images of the same scene. In an example a machine learning system learns at least one parameter of a function for performing the image processing task by using the training data. In an example, the machine learning system comprises a random decision forest. In an example, the scene reconstruction is obtained by moving an image capture apparatus in an environment where the image capture apparatus has an associated dense reconstruction and camera tracking system.
