An imaging unitgenerates an image signal of a captured image. An optical sensor unitgenerates a sensor signal that has a wider view angle than that of the imaging unitand is according to a spectral characteristic upon obtaining the captured image. A controllerdetermines reliability of a light-source estimation result based on the image signal generated by the imaging unit, using a light-source estimation result based on the sensor signal generated by the optical sensor unit. For example, the controllerclassifies the light-source estimation result based on the image signal into categories of light sources capable of being estimated based on the sensor signal, and compares the category into which the light-source estimation result is classified with the light source estimated based on the sensor signal. In a case where the light source estimated based on the sensor signal is not changed when the category into which the light-source estimation result is classified is changed, it is determined that the light-source estimation result based on the image signal is not reliable, and an adjustment value of white balance adjustment is not updated. Then, the white balance adjustment can accurately and stably be performed.

Image processing device, image processing method, and imaging device

An information processing device includes circuitry configured to generate a white balance evaluation result based on an user designated portion in an image. The circuitry is also configured to control a display of an indication of the white balance evaluation result with the image.

Information processing device, imaging device, information processing method, and program

A method for optimizing placement and routing includes producing a net list constituting circuit connection information in a hardware description language, executing logic synthesis of the net list to output a gate-level net list with optimized logic, determining clusterings based on logic gap information used for optimizing the logic, outputting clustering information expressing a particular determination, and executing placement and routing based on the gate-level net list and the clustering information.
