Applications of digital image processing techniques to problems of data registration and correlation

چکیده
JPL's Image Processing Laboratory (IPL) has been processing imagery using digital computers for approximately ten years. During that period, the computer capability at the IPL has developed from a single job batch oriented system with no volatile image displays to a multi-task environment accommodating both batch processing and several interactive tasks simultaneously, supporting a variety of general purpose and special purpose interactive image display systems. The sophistication of the various applications has also developed from simple subjective enhancement of planetary imagery to complex applications requiring correlation of remotely sensed imagery with auxiliary data and with nonimaging data bases. This paper describes the evolution of the IPL facility, and illustrates the increasing complexity of the image processing tasks with examples of various applications from the planetary program and the earth resources activities that have utilized the IPL facility.

Automatic Detection and Localization of Surface Cracks in Continuously Cast Hot Steel Slabs Using Digital Image Analysis Techniques
Quality inspection is an indispensable part of modern industrial manufacturing. Steel as a major industry requires constant surveillance and supervision through its various stages of production. Continuous casting is a critical step in the steel manufacturing process in which molten steel is solidified into a semi-finished product called slab. Once the slab is released from the casting unit, th...

A series of tests have been conducted to investigate fatigue damage characterization in corroded welded steel plates using structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques. Acoustic Emission (AE) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique with potential applications for locating and monitoring fatigue cracks in service. In the present work, AE is implemented to characterize damage during crack e...

متن کاملImage Restoration Using A PDE-Based Approach
Image restoration is an essential preprocessing step for many image analysis applications. In any image restoration techniques, keeping structure of the image unchanged is very important. Such structure in an image often corresponds to the region discontinuities and edges. The techniques based on partial differential equations, such as the heat equations, are receiving considerable attention i...
متن کاملRock mass structural data analysis using image processing techniques (Case study: Choghart iron ore mine northern slopes)
Presence of joints and fractures in rocks strongly influences the behavior of the rock mass by dividing the media into smaller units. These structures intensify the potential instability besides the development of sliding and rotational movements. The assumption of discontinuum media changes the whole analysis conditions in relation to the continuum analysis. Acquisition of geometrical and stru...
