Local Method of Length and Direction Estimation for Stepped Representations of Curves Application to the ‘Weak Membrane’ Image Restoration Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple method for retrieving local length and orientation of a curve represented as a set of edge elements (inter-pixel boundaries) is proposed. This entirely local method is based on classifying the layout of an edgel and its closest neighbours and resolves itself to referencing a small look-up table. No “smooth” representation such as a fitted polynomial is used. Simple examples as well as an advanced application to the enhancement of the ‘weak membrane’ image restoration algorithm are presented.

Compressed Image Hashing using Minimum Magnitude CSLBP
Image hashing allows compression, enhancement or other signal processing operations on digital images which are usually acceptable manipulations. Whereas, cryptographic hash functions are very sensitive to even single bit changes in image. Image hashing is a sum of important quality features in quantized form. In this paper, we proposed a novel image hashing algorithm for authentication which i...
متن کاملPSO-Optimized Blind Image Deconvolution for Improved Detectability in Poor Visual Conditions
Abstract: Image restoration is a critical step in many vision applications. Due to the poor quality of Passive Millimeter Wave (PMMW) images, especially in marine and underwater environment, developing strong algorithms for the restoration of these images is of primary importance. In addition, little information about image degradation process, which is referred to as Point Spread Function (PSF...
متن کاملAnt colony algorithm as a high-performance method in resource estimation using LVA field; A case study: Choghart Iron ore deposit
Kriging is an advanced geostatistical procedure that generates an estimated surface or 3D model from a scattered set of points. This method can be used for estimating resources using a grid of sampled boreholes. However, conventional ordinary kriging (OK) is unable to take locally varying anisotropy (LVA) into account. A numerical approach has been presented that generates an LVA field by calcu...
متن کاملMulti-frame Super Resolution for Improving Vehicle Licence Plate Recognition
License plate recognition (LPR) by digital image processing, which is widely used in traffic monitor and control, is one of the most important goals in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). In real ITS, the resolution of input images are not very high since technology challenges and cost of high resolution cameras. However, when the license plate image is taken at low resolution, the license...
متن کاملWindowing Effects of Short Time Fourier Transform on Wideband Array Signal Processing Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation
During the last two decades, Maximum Likelihood estimation (ML) has been used to determine Direction Of Arrival (DOA) and signals propagated by the sources, using narrowband array signals. The algorithm fails in the case of wideband signals. As an attempt by the present study to overcome the problem, the array outputs are transformed into narrowband frequency bins, using short time Fourier tran...
