Evaluating image sharpness

摘要

A system may be configured to calculate and use image sharpness results. In some example embodiments, a content-aware image sharpness evaluation scheme is implemented by the system to calculate the degree of sharpness or blur of photographs taken of objects of interest. In certain example embodiments, a calculated sharpness score from the image sharpness evaluation scheme is converted into a score that is meaningful relative to other photographs of the same category as the object depicted in the photograph. In various example embodiments, a mobile-based assistant is configured to provide instant (or near instant) feedback to users uploading photographs using a mobile device. In alternative example embodiments, a web-based assistant is configured to provide instant (or near instant) feedback to users uploading one or more photographs simultaneously to an electronic commerce or marketplace website.
