چکیده

This paper presents preliminary results of a collaboration of philologists and computer scientists devoted to the recording, investigation and editing of two medieval Slavonic manuscripts of extraordinary importance. The goal of the project lies in the development of techniques and tools for the recording, restoration and analysis of such sources in order to support the philological studies by automatically deriving the description and restoration of the relevant scripts. The algorithms developed shall enable the philologists to perform their tasks better and faster, while we do not aim to develop software that reads old handwriting automatically. First, the acquisition of multi-spectral images of the manuscripts give the basis to improve the readability of the texts. Image registration of the multi-spectral images and their enhancement are necessary steps for the subsequent computer aided script description and reconstruction. Here, an overview of the interdisciplinary project and preliminary results of the multi-spectral acquisition and registration are presented.

A Novel Subsampling Method for 3D Multimodality Medical Image Registration Based on Mutual Information

Mutual information (MI) is a widely used similarity metric for multimodality image registration. However, it involves an extremely high computational time especially when it is applied to volume images. Moreover, its robustness is affected by existence of local maxima. The multi-resolution pyramid approaches have been proposed to speed up the registration process and increase the accuracy of th...

Multi-Spectral Image Acquisition and Registration of Ancient Manuscripts

A multi-spectral image acquisition system and a fully automatic image registration of ancient manuscripts are presented in this paper. Parchment sometimes contains two scripts, whereas the first script was erased. Multi-spectral imaging enhances the erased script and makes it visible to the human eye respectively. In this paper an image acquisition system is presented, that records UV reflectog...

Registration and Fusion of Multi-Spectral Images Using a Novel Edge Descriptor

In this paper we introduce a fully end-to-end approach for multi-spectral image registration and fusion. Our method for fusion combines images from different spectral channels into a single fused image by different approaches for low and high frequency signals. A prerequisite of fusion is a stage of geometric alignment between the spectral bands, commonly referred to as registration. Unfortunat...
