Abstract

A digital image processing technique, such as an image warping operation, is stored in a pre-computed lookup table (LUT) prior to image processing. The LUT represents a pixel-to-pixel mapping of pixel coordinates in a source image to pixel coordinates in a destination image. For vectors containing only inlier pixels, a fast remap table is generated based on the original LUT. Each SIMD vector listed in the fast remap is indexed to the coordinates of one of the source pixels that maps to one of the destination pixels in the vector. Other SIMD vectors that contain at least one outlier pixel are listed in an outlier index. For each vector indexed in the fast remap, linear vector I/O operations are used to load the corresponding source pixels instead of using scatter/gather vector I/O load operations via the LUT. The remaining outlier pixels are processed using scatter/gather I/O operations via the LUT.
