Adjusted Quick Shift Phase Preserving Dynamic Range Compression method for breast lesions segmentation

Automatic Quick-Shift Segmentation for Color Images

This paper proposes an automatic quick-shift segmentation method using illumination invariant representation of natural color images. In practice, the quick-shift segmentation method is sensitive to the choice of parameters, thus a quick tuning by hand is not sufficient. The proposed method segments images into homogeneous regions by applying the quick-shift method with initial values, then cha...

Extending the Radar Dynamic Range using Adaptive Pulse Compression

The matched filter in the radar receiver is only adapted to the transmitted signal version and its output will be wasted due to non-matching with the received signal from the environment. The sidelobes amplitude of the matched filter output in pulse compression radars are dependent on the transmitted coded waveforms that extended as much as the length of the code on both sides of the target loc...

Really Quick Shift: Image Segmentation on a GPU

The paper presents an exact GPU implementation of the quick shift image segmentation algorithm. Variants of the implementation which use global memory and texture caching are presented, and the paper shows that a method backed by texture caching can produce a 1050X speedup for practical images, making computation of super-pixels possible at 5-10Hz on modest sized (256x256) images.

High-Dynamic-Range Imaging for Cloud Segmentation

Sky/cloud images obtained from ground-based sky-cameras are usually captured using a fish-eye lens with a wide field of view. However, the sky exhibits a large dynamic range in terms of luminance, more than a conventional camera can capture. It is thus difficult to capture the details of an entire scene with a regular camera in a single shot. In most cases, the circumsolar region is over-expose...
