3D Image Sharpening by Grid Warping
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method for sharpening of 3D volume images has been developed. The idea of the proposed algorithm is to transform the 3D neighborhood of the edge so that the neighboring pixels move closer to the edge, and then resample the image from the warped grid to the original pixel grid. The proposed technique preserves image textures while making the edges sharper. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated with synthetic volume images and real micro CT images.

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...

Introduction: Radiation imaging is one of the applicable methods in diagnostic medicine and nondestructive testing for industrial applications. In nondestructive 3D imaging, in addition to the radiation source, there is a requirement for a suitable detection system, data acquisition system, mechanical sections for moving objects, reconstruction algorithm and finally a computer for processing an...
متن کاملDisparity-Map-Based Rendering for Hole Prevention
A popular way to convert video is given by depth image-based rendering methods, in which a depth that is associated with an image frame is used to generate a virtual view. An adaptive image warping approach as an improvement to the regular approach is proposed. The new algorithm (DMBR) exploits the smoothness of a typical depth map to reduce the complexity of the underlying optimization problem...
متن کاملImage Warping in Dermatological Image Hair Removal
The paper focuses on solving the problem of hair removal in dermatology applications. The proposed hair removal algorithm is based on Gabor filtering and PDE-based image reconstruction. It also includes the edge sharpening stage using a new warping algorithm. The idea of warping is to move pixels from the neighborhood of the blurred edge closer to the edge. The proposed technique preserves the ...
متن کاملBackward-Warping Ultrasound Reconstruction for Improving Diagnostic Value and Registration
Freehand 3D ultrasound systems acquire sets of B-Mode ultrasound images tagged with position information obtained by a tracking device. For both further processing and clinical use of these ultrasound slice images scattered in space, it is often required to reconstruct them into 3D-rectilinear grid arrays. We propose new efficient methods for this so-called ultrasound spatial compounding using ...
