An image retrieval method applies an application server, one or more calculating servers, and a sorting server to perform image retrieval. The application server extracts visual features of an exemplary image. The one or more calculating servers calculate similarities of available images according to the visual features of the exemplary image. The sorting server sorts the available images according to the similarities so as to obtain images similar to the exemplary image.

A method for isolating and cutting out figures in a design patent document divides each page of a figure section of the design patent document into a multiplicity of areas according to histograms, which are created based on information of black pixels and white pixels in a black-and-white image of the page. The method selects the areas that include the figures of the design patent, and displays the selected areas on a display device.

A method for automatically typesetting patent images extracts a brief introduction of each patent image from a description part of a patent document, and records a keyword of the brief introduction. The method distinguishes an image label of each patent image from an image part of the patent document. The method rotates the patent image by ninety degrees clockwise in response that the image label of the patent image does not contain the keyword, and outputs the rotated image onto a display device.

An image processing system and method for comparing and correcting two monochromic images Aand Bthat extracts a skeleton of objects in the monochromic image Ato generate a skeleton image Aand extracts a skeleton of objects in the monochromic image Bto generate a skeleton image B. The system and method then covers the skeleton image Awith the monochromic image Bto generate a covered image A, and covers the skeleton image Bwith the monochromic image Ato generate a covered image B. The system and method further corrects allowable variances in the covered images Aand B, and outputs the covered images whose variances have been corrected.

An electronic document comparison system and method removes cachets and noise from a test electronic document. The system and method further compares each of second minimum blocks with a corresponding first minimum block in a standard electronic document line by line, and obtains the second minimum blocks having different coordinates on each line. Furthermore, the system and method simplifies the obtained second minimum blocks having different coordinates by filtering designated objects, and marks the simplified second minimum blocks in the test electronic document.

An image processing system and method for comparing two monochromic images Aand Bis provided. The system and method thins objects in the monochromic image Bso as to generate a skeleton image B, thickens the objects in the monochromic image Ato generate a bold image A, and overlays the skeleton image Bwith the bold image Aso as to generate an overlaid image AB. The system and method further thins the objects in the monochromic image Aso as to generate a skeleton image A, thickens the objects in the monochromic image Bto generate a bold image B, and overlays the skeleton image Awith the bold image Bso as to generate an overlaid image AB. The system and method outputs the overlaid images ABand ABon a display screen.

A processing digital noise method generates a matrix according to pixel values of pixels of a digital image, and selects a sub-matrix from the matrix. The sub-matrix has the same dimensions as a digital noise sample and includes a pixel value of a pixel selected from the digital image. The digital noise sample is represented as a matrix composed of 0 and 1. The method compares the sub-matrix with the digital noise sample to determine whether or not all values in the sub-matrix and the digital noise sample are the same. If all values are the same, the method further searches 1 from the sub-matrix for locating digital noise of the digital image, and removes the digital noise of the digital image by changing the pixel values of the digital noise from 1 to 0.

An image comparison method compares a reference image with a test image. Each image includes objects and a background. The method generates a skeleton image of the reference image. The skeleton image of the reference image is compared with the test image so as to determine if the reference image have more objects or objects parts than the test image. Similarly, a skeleton image of the test image is generated. The skeleton image of the test image is compared with the reference image so as to determine if the test image have more objects or objects parts than the reference image.

A method for managing access control list of computer systems includes the steps of receiving a user account login request of accessing an application system; validating the user account login request; obtaining a user access list of the user account from the database server if the user account login request is valid; loading the user access list of the user account in the management server temporarily, and creating a user identification; granting access rights to the user account to the application system according to the access list of the user account. A related system is also disclosed.
