Modification of the LULU Operators for Preservation of Critical Image Details

چکیده

Noise removal is an important aspect of image processing, as the human visual system is very sensitive to the high amplitude of noise signals, thus noise in an image can result in a subjective loss of information. LULU operators are non-linear rank order filters, which efficiently and successfully remove impulse noise. Certain image details, such as thin lines and circles, textures etc. are often misinterpreted as noise and removed, thus essential image information is not available. Therefore, a modification of the LULU operators for the preservation of such details based on a parallel smoothing with two sub operators is presented and evaluated in this paper.

Density-Based Histogram Partitioning and Local Equalization for Contrast Enhancement of Images

Histogram Equalization technique is one of the basic methods in image contrast enhancement. Using this method, in the case of images with uniform gray levels (with narrow histogram), causes loss of image detail and the natural look of the image. To overcome this problem and to have a better image contrast enhancement, a new two-step method was proposed. In the first step, the image histogram is...

A Pixon-based Image Segmentation Method Considering Textural Characteristics of Image

Image segmentation is an essential and critical process in image processing and pattern recognition. In this paper we proposed a textured-based method to segment an input image into regions. In our method an entropy-based textured map of image is extracted, followed by an histogram equalization step to discriminate different regions. Then with the aim of eliminating unnecessary details and achi...

ترمیم تصاویر رنگی با نواحی مخدوش بزرگ براساس تجزیه تصویر به مولفه های بافت و ساختار

In this paper a new inpainting scheme applicable to images with wide missed regions is presented. The proposed method is based on  a new modification of the well known geodesic path image inpainting algorithm. Furthermore, to achieve a high-quality inpainting preserving details and textures, the image is decomposed firstly into texture and structure sub-images. Then, each sub-image is conc...

Improving seismic image in complex structures by new solving strategies in the CO-CRS and the CO-CDS methods

Conventional seismic imaging possesses problem in exposing structural detail in complex geological media. Nevertheless, some recently introduced methods reduce this ambiguity to some extent, by using data based imaging operator or emancipation from the macro-velocity model. The zero offset common reflection surface (ZO-CRS) stack method is a velocity independent imaging technique which is frequ...
