چکیده

In this paper, we propose a fast combined separability filter, which can selectively detect circular features such as pupils and nostrils in an image of the human face. The proposed filter is designed as a combination of multiple rectangle separability filters so that it can achieve high-speed processing and high positioning accuracy at the same time. The evaluation experiments using synthetic images and real face images show that the proposed filter is 70 times faster than the conventional circular separability filter.

Improving Ndvi Time Series Class Separation Using an Extended Kalman

It is proposed that the NDVI time series derived from MODIS multitemporal remote sensing data can be modelled as a triply (mean, phase and amplitude) modulated cosine function. A non-linear Extended Kalman Filter was developed to estimate the parameters of the modulated cosine function as a function of time. It was shown that the maximum separability of the parameters for different vegetation l...

Visual Approach to Dynamic Hand Gesture Recognition for Human Computer Interface

This paper presents an approach for detection of fingertips and features of human hand and its application in the field of human computer interface. The fingertip detection algorithm consists of four steps. First, a skin filter based on the YCbCr colour space is used to obtain a binary silhouette of the image of the hand. Second, the region of interest (fingers in this case) is then separated f...

Detecting Subsurface Circular Objects from Low Contrast Noisy Images: Applications in Microscope Image Enhancement

Particle detection in very noisy and low contrast images is an active field of research in image processing. In this article, a method is proposed for the efficient detection and sizing of subsurface spherical particles, which is used for the processing of softly fused Au nanoparticles. Transmission Electron Microscopy is used for imaging the nanoparticles, and the proposed algorithm has been t...

An Enhanced Median Filter for Removing Noise from MR Images

In this paper, a novel decision based median (DBM) filter for enhancing MR images has been proposed. The method is based on eliminating impulse noise from MR images. A median-based method to remove impulse noise from digital MR images has been developed. Each pixel is leveled from black to white like gray-level. The method is adjusted in order to decide whether the median operation can be appli...

A Fast Circular Edge Detector for the Iris Region Segmentation

In this paper, we propose a fast circular edge detector for the iris region segmentation by detecting the inner and outer boundaries of the iris. In previous work, the circular edge detector which John G.Daugman proposed, searches the radius and the center of the iris to detect its outer boundary over an eye image. To do so, he used Gaussian filter to smooth texture patterns of the iris which c...
