Chaos-based dynamics system is typical of the properties of randomness, determinacy and sensitivity to the initial parameters, which makes it suitable for the application of image encryption. In this paper, a wavelet domain color image encryption algorithm based on chaos is proposed. The color plain image is firstly decomposed into R, G, B components. Then an improved 3D chaotic cat map is proposed...
Contour extraction of stone slabs is the first-step for optimization of cutting the irregular stone slab in real time. A color image segmentation method to extract the stone slab contour in the complex background is proposed. Firstly, we define a sample window and detecting window in HSI color image space, and extract the image feature of sample window as the prior knowledge. Traverse the whole image...
As an efficient pre-processing technology, superpixel has been widely used in image segmentation, which improves the final results and reduces the complexity of the subsequent processing tasks. This paper presents an interactive image segmentation method based on the hierarchical superpixels initialization and region merging. It firstly proposes a novel hierarchical superpixels initialization framework...
Considering the emergence of Microsoft Kinect has attracted attention not only from customers but also from researchers in the field of computer vision. Nonetheless, Kinect-generated depth maps usually contain various holes, especially at the edges of the front ground. In order to fill in the holes existing in the depth map, some methods that adopted color map guided in-painting or joint bilateral...
Color image segmentation is an important topic in the image processing field. In most segmentation methods based on MRF-MAP, the segmentation quality is far behind requirement due to the absence of appearance models, and it is often suffering from the low computational efficiency of iterated calculations. To address these problems, the paper proposes a new segmentation method for color images based...
The impact of depth map compression on synthesized virtual view quality is analyzed. We take the view synthesis experiment for depth map and color image symmetric and asymmetric compression. The results demonstrate that the depth map is less important than the color image in view synthesis. When the color image compress at the fixed index, keep the depth map compression within a certain range, the...
In order to speed up the convergence of GrabCut algorithm and enhance the accuracy of segmentation, this paper puts forward an algorithm of GrabCut color image segmentation based on region of interest (ROI). The user selects a ROI by dragging a rectangle. The GrabCut algorithm is used in ROI only. The object is then extracted automatically. The experimental results demonstrate that the new algorithm...
In this paper, a reliable pixel-based foreground-background segmentation technique for detecting object(s) of interest (OOI) from video sequence captured by a fixed camera is proposed. OOIs, used for further tracking or positioning applications, should be detected accurately from those moving (or still) objects even under variable illumination and the corresponding background model need to update...
The unsharp masking filter is an efficient and effective algorithm frequently applied in image contrast enhancement applications. The principle is based on sharpening object edges by appending a scaled high-pass version of the image to the original. The quality of the processed image is largely dependent on the characteristics of the high-pass signal and the scaling factor. Thus, optimal choices of...
A new method for color image denoising is presented. This work considers three color channels as a whole by using quaternion diffusion. We use concept of topological sensitivity analysis. The diffusion coefficients are computed by a proposed cost function of the Topological Derivative. Finally, the effectiveness of this method for color image restoration is verified by several numerical experiments...
