Another important subject within computer vision is image segmentation. It is the process of dividing an image into different regions based on the characteristics of pixels to identify objects or boundaries to simplify an image and more efficiently analyze it. Segmentation impacts a number of domains, from the filmmaking industry to the field of medicine. For instance, the software behind green screens implements image segmentation to crop out the foreground and place it on a background for scenes that cannot be shot or would be dangerous to shoot in real life 2, record 2, English, - image%20segmentation

La segmentation d'images constitue la base de nombreuses tâches de vision par ordinateur[,] comme la détection d'objets et la classification d'images. C'est une méthode qui consiste à diviser une image en sous-groupes. Cette division s'effectue habituellement en fonction du contour ou des limites visibles des objets dans une image afin d'en réduire la complexité. [...] La segmentation d'images a plusieurs utilités dans les domaines des véhicules autonomes, de l'analyse d'images médicales et d'images satellites, de la vidéosurveillance et d'autres tâches de reconnaissance et de détection. 1, record 2, French, - segmentation%20d%27images

An alternative to multitasking. Here multiple tasks are loaded into computer memory, where you can switch between them with a keystroke. Only one task, the foreground task, is running at any time-all the background tasks remain in suspended animation until you switch to them. The advantage is that you can switch between them instantly, and while they are the foreground task, they run at full speed. However, each task must have a full memory image, so you must have lots of memory on your system. The new MS-DOS 5. 0 has a task-switcher in its shell. 1, record 29, English, - task%20switching

A conventional animation is created in a fairly fixed sequence : The story for the animation is written(or perhaps merely conceived), then a storyboard is laid out.... Next, the soundtrack(if any) is recorded, a detailed layout is produced(with a drawing for every scene in the animation), and the soundtrack is read-that is, the instants at which significant sounds occur are recorded in order. The detailed layout and the soundtrack are then correlated. Next, certain key frames of the animation are drawn-these are the frames in which the entities being animated are at extreme or characteristic positions, from which their intermediate position can be inferred. The intermediate frames are then filled in(this is called inbetweening), and a trial film is made(a pencil test)... Many stages of conventional animation seem ideally suited to computer assistance, especially inbetweening and coloring, which can be done using the seed-fill techniques.... Before the computer can be used, however, the drawings must be digitized. This can be done by using optical scanning, by tracing the drawings with a data tablet, or by producing the original drawings with a drawing program in the first place. The drawings may need to be postprocessed(e. g., filtered) to clean up any glitches arising from the input process(especially optical scanning), and to smooth the contours somewhat. The composition stage, in which foreground and background figures are combined to generate the individual frames for the final animation, can be done with the image-composition techniques.... 4, record 32, English, - in%2Dbetween
