چکیده

image processing, negatives One source of high quality digital image data is scanned photographic negatives, which can be processed to produce high quality color images. The scanned data must be inverted and processed to adjust for the film and scene characteristics. This report details a proposed approach to processing scanned negatives to produce output color images suitable for viewing on a computer monitor or for printing. Our processing pipeline contains an adaptive stage that automatically adjusts the white and black point according to the image characteristics. Other stages invert the scanned data and adjust the midtone values. Finally, a postprocessing stage is used to detect dark and backlit scenes, which are then brightened. The pipeline has been tested on several hundred scanned negatives using two different film scanners.

A FILTERED B-SPLINE MODEL OF SCANNED DIGITAL IMAGES

We present an approach for modeling and filtering digitally scanned images. The digital contour of an image is segmented to identify the linear segments, the nonlinear segments and critical corners. The nonlinear segments are modeled by B-splines. To remove the contour noise, we propose a weighted least q m s model to account for both the fitness of the splines as well as their approximate cur...

Processing Digital Image for Measurement of Crack Dimensions in Concrete

The elements of the concrete structure are most frequently affected by cracking. Crack detection is essential to ensure safety and performance during its service life. Cracks do not have a regular shape, in order to achieve the exact dimensions of the crack; the general mathematical formulae are by no means applicable. The authors have proposed a new method which aims to measure the crack dimen...

Automatic Mapping of Scanned Sheet Music to Audio Recordings

Significant digitization efforts have resulted in large multimodal music collections comprising visual (scanned sheet music) as well as acoustic material (audio recordings). In this paper, we present a novel procedure for mapping scanned pages of sheet music to a given collection of audio recordings by identifying musically corresponding audio clips. To this end, both the scanned images as well...
