Image warping as an image enhancement post-processing tool
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method to improve the results of image enhancement is proposed. The method is based on pixel grid warping, the main idea is moving pixels in the direction of the nearest image edges. Warping allows to make edges sharper while keeping textured areas almost intact. Experimental applications of the proposed method for image enhancement algorithms show the improvement of image quality.

Enhancement by image-dependent warping
All image warping algorithms to date are image-independent, namely, relate only to the geometry of the image plane, ignoring the content of the image. We show that taking the image content into account yields elaborate warping schemes which may be used to enhance, sharpen and scale images. Sharpening the image is achieved by "squashing" the pixels in edge areas, and "stretching" the pixels in f...

ABSTRACTBackground: Delivering the radiation dose to the target volume and minimizing the dose to normal tissues are the main objectives in radiotherapy. The aim of our study is to enhance the contrast of the portal image to increase the accuracy of delineation of the organs in the irradiation field. Methods: The software was written based on local enhancement of the pixel values in image ma...

Image restoration has been an active research area. Dierent formulations are eective in high qualityrecovery. Partial Dierential Equations (PDEs) have become an important tool in image processingand analysis. One of the earliest models based on PDEs is Perona-Malik model that is a kindof anisotropic diusion (ANDI) lter. Anisotropic diusion lter has become a valuable tool indierent elds of image...
متن کاملGui Front-end for Spectral Warping
This paper describes a software tool developed in the Java language to facilitate time and frequency warping of audio spectra. The application utilises the Java Advanced Image Processing (AIP) API which contains classes for image manipulation and, in particular, for non-linear warping using polynomial transformations. Warping of spectral representations is fundamental to sound processing techni...
متن کاملDeblocking Joint Photographic Experts Group Compressed Images via Self-learning Sparse Representation
JPEG is one of the most widely used image compression method, but it causes annoying blocking artifacts at low bit-rates. Sparse representation is an efficient technique which can solve many inverse problems in image processing applications such as denoising and deblocking. In this paper, a post-processing method is proposed for reducing JPEG blocking effects via sparse representation. In this ...
