Bokeh: Applications & Art

In photography, bokeh (/ˈboʊkə/ ⓘ BOH-kə or /ˈboʊkeɪ/ ⓘ BOH-kay; Japanese: ) is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in out-of-focus parts of an image, whether foreground or background or both. It is created by using a wide aperture lens.

Bokeh relationships Subject–Predicate–Object triples

TTTA extracted 43 structured relationships around Bokeh. Examples in this analysis include hearts or stars → instance of → photographers have exploited the shape of the bokeh by creating a simple mask out of card with shapes and compacts or cellphone cameras → instance of → an artificial neural network may be used to reconstruct the HDR light.An alternative mechanical mechanism has been proposed for generating bokeh in small aperture cameras. The table shows each extracted connection, where it came from and its confidence.
