In this paper authors present a simple method for recognizing blurred regions in the image. Proposed algorithm is based on 81 simple features — moments of histogram of image subbands, that were obtained during image decomposition, and ratio derived from gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) are used. The method is compared with a different method, that is based on approaches found in literature....

In our research range, we improve the traditional methods of edge detection based on the characters of archaic epigraph images, propose the block edge detection method and the multi-scale edge detection method based on Wavelet Transform...

Multiscale Geometry Analysis consistent with the best features of the image representation, is effective for high dimensional function approximation and can use the image of the geometric regularity. In this article, we will mainly discuss the transformation of the Beam let based on Multiscale Geometry Analysis, formulate its theoretical basis, and by Matlab simulation results show the advantages...
The traditional Canny edge detector is designed to detect the edges of gray image, the color image must be converted to gray image, this method only uses the luminance information of color image, and don't take into account the chroma information, therefore, it misses some edges. In this paper, an improved Canny edge detector against impulsive noise based on CIELAB space is proposed, the color image...
The application of edge detection to obtain salient lane boundaries on road image is popular in the computer vision area. However, edge detectors may be easily distracted by manifold noises that emerged on the road surface such as shadow cast, vehicles or other obstacles. Additionally, sky region can adversely affect the performance of lane detection method due to the presence of horizontal edges...
Mutual information (MI) is a well accepted similarity measure for image registration. However, MI based registration faces the challenges of high computational complexity, low registration efficiency and high likelihood of being trapped into local optima due to an absence of spatial information. In this paper, we propose a new multiscale registration framework based upon an edge preserving total variation...
The discrepancies among the spectral range of the component bands of MHSRRSI will result in remarkable differences of the response extent to detect edges of geographical features. Considering the unique property of each color space, an improved Canny operator has been proposed which is available to detect and extract vector or scalar edges from MHSRRSI in weighted color space ( such as RGB, linear...
We propose a passive image splicing detection method based on consistency check of color distribution in the neighborhood of edge pixels. For a given image, we classify edges into different categories and extract shadow-shading-specular invariant edges as the candidate of splicing boundaries. Hue histogram entropy is then computed to capture abnormality of color distribution at these boundaries. Inconsistency...
This paper presents a new method for container auto-landing system using stereo vision. The position estimation of the spreader is very important for improving the operating efficiency of the port. A central problem in estimation of container position is that it is difficult to satisfy both the computation time problem and accuracy at the same time. To resolve this problem, we propose detection of...
In this paper, we propose a CAD (Computer aided diagnosis) system to analyze the RA (rheumatoid arthritis) and osteoporosis by using image processing techniques from the CR images. To analyze the RA, we develop a segmentation method for phalanges in CR Image by use of DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) for detection of temporal change. The temporal change is detected using the difference image between...
Based on the edge feature extraction of oracle bones, two-dimensional fragments contour matching algorithm based on angular sequence is proposed to obtain the most likely njugating outcome between two pieces. The algorithm is combined with the multi-scale space, which not only solves the sharp corner problem of oracle bone conjugating effectively, also improves the computational efficiency and accuracy...
Mobile robot navigation with ceiling features such as a corner which is one of the most popular visual features used in robotics has been widely studied because of its practicality and high performance, and recently low-cost robots have started to use this navigation technique. A cleaning robot is a good example. This study is focused on global localization of a cleaning robot and MCL, one of the...
In this paper, a novel image forensics method is proposed to detect manual blurred edges from a tampered image. Firstly, the image edges are analyzed by using non-subsampled contourlet transform. Then the differences between the normal edge and the blurred edge are extracted by researching phase congruency and prediction-error image. After that, the features are used to train the SVM, by which the...
This paper presents 2D shape matching technique using hierarchical tree structure extracted from shock graph that in turn extracted from the skeleton of the shape of interest.

In this paper shape representation, matching and...
The importance of inspection process has been magnified by the requirements of the modern manufacturing environment. A variety of approaches for automatic inspection of machine parts have been reported over last two decades. In this work it is targeted to develop an automated machine vision software system, which is used to inspect automotive parts like PE pumps after assembly of different components...

In this paper, we are interested in the development of AM-FM analysis methods for small components, regions of interests (ROIs), and segmented objects. For detecting small components, we propose the use of a new multi-scale AM-FM edge and peak analysis system. The new system uses the product of gradient estimates from...
In this paper SVM algorithm is applied to classify the scenery video types in compressed domain. Firstly we extract video sequences randomly from scenery video and detect representative frames from the video sequences; secondly we extract features such as color layout, dominant color, edge histogram and face feature; then according to SVM, representative frames are classified as natural scenery, personality,...
We propose a method to edit RGBNs (images with a color and a normal channel). High resolution RGBNs are easy to obtain using photometric stereo. Free editing will result in normals which do not correspond to any realizable surface. Our normal operators guarantee the integrability of the results. Our method can filter normals with any linear kernel allowing high-pass and edge-enhancement filters. We...
Several general-purpose algorithms and techniques have been developed for image segmentation. Since there is no general solution to the image segmentation problem, these techniques often have to be combined with domain knowledge in order to effectively solve an image segmentation problem for a problem domain. This paper presents a comparative study of the basic image segmentation techniques i.e. edge-based,...
