Abstract:
A method of determining a summation of pixel characteristics for a rectangular region of a digital image includes determining if a base address for a data element in an integral image buffer is aligned for an SIMD operation by a processor embedded in an electronic assembly configured to perform Haar-like feature calculations. The data element represents a corner of the rectangular region of an integral image. The integral image is a representation of the digital image. The integral image is formed by data elements stored in the integral image buffer. The data element is loaded from the integral image buffer to the processor when the base address is aligned for the SIMD operation. An offset data element of an offset integral image is loaded from an offset integral buffer when the base address is non-aligned for the SIMD operation. The offset data element represents the corner of the rectangular region.

Claim (Index 1):
An electronic assembly, comprising:\n at least one processor; and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program for execution by the at least one processor, the program including instructions to:\n load a first data element from an integral image buffer, to the at least one processor, in response to determining that a first base address is aligned for a first single instruction multiple data (SIMD) operation by the at least one processor; and \n load an offset first data element of an offset integral image from an offset integral buffer on a storage device, to the at least one processor, in response to determining that the first base address is non-aligned for the first SIMD operation; \n wherein the offset first data element represents a first corner of a rectangular region of a digital image, wherein the first data element represents the first corner of the rectangular region of an integral image, wherein the integral image is a representation of the digital image, and wherein the integral image is formed by data elements stored in the integral image buffer on the storage device; and wherein the offset first data element of the offset integral image is defined by corresponding data elements of the integral image and stored at address locations in the offset integral buffer that are offset by one address location such that a select data element in the integral image buffer at a select address that is non-aligned for a select SIMD operation by the at least one processor is located at a select offset address in the offset integral buffer that is aligned for the select SIMD operation.
