A new system developed by a University of Washington computer vision researcher called Dreambit lets a person imagine how they would look with a different hairstyle or color, or in a different time period, age, country or anything else. Developer Ira Shlizerman and her team previously developed automated age progression software that focused only on a person’s face. The new system adds varied hairstyle options and other contextual elements. After uploading an input photo, you type in a search term—such as “curly hair,” “India” or “1930s.” The software system analyzes the input photo and minesa set of Internet photographs that fall into the desired category and also match the original photo’s face shape, pose and expression. Then the software’s algorithms (算法) seamlessly map the person’s face onto the results searched from the Internet. “It’s hard to recognize someone by just looking at a face,” said Shlizerman. “With missing children, people often dye their hair or change the style. The new image-processing software not only imagines how a missing person’s facial appearance might change over time, but also enables one to imagine what a child might look five or 10 years into the future under different circumstances—with red hair, curly hair, black hair or even a shaved head.” Another potential application is to picture how a certain actor or actress might appear in a role. For example, the system can match Internet photographs of the actress Cate Blanchett and Bob Dylan, the character archetypes (原型), to predict how she would appear playing the Dylan role in the movie I’m Not There. Dreambit draws on previous research conducted in facial processing, three-dimensional reconstruction and age progression, combining those algorithms in a unique way to create the blended images. Its ability to accurately and automatically synthesize two photographs stems from the combination of algorithms that Shlizerman assembled, as well as the numerous photos available on the Internet. “The key idea is to find photos of people who look similar enough to you that you can copy certain elements of their appearance,” said Shlizerman.1. Dreambit is a new system that ________.A) focuses on a person’s change of facial appearanceB) synthetizes a person’s image under different situations C) changes a person’s nationality as he or she likesD) compares a person’s photo with others’ on the Internet2. According to the passage, the underlined word “mine” in Para. 2 means ________.A) to search through B) to look intoC) to look forD) to go over3. A new blended image of a person is ________.A) drawn by the new system before certain search terms are typed inB) dependent on different facial appearances and hairstylesC) based on similar Internet photos satisfying certain terms D) created by putting the original photo into the desired category4. Which of the following statements about Dreambit is true?A) Dreambit is the first step in trying to imagine human appearance.B) Dreambit can be helpful in finding missing children. C) Dreambit is widely used in filmmaking industry.D) Dreambit can compare one actor with the others.5. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A) Dreambit is a combination of many kinds of software.B) A lot of latest technologies are involved in Dreambit.C) Two photographs can be blended to be more accurate.D) Effective usage of Dreambit relies on the Internet.
