Spatially Varying Color Correction Matrices for Reduced Noise
نویسندگان
چکیده
Color space transformation (or color correction) needs to be performed in typical imaging devices because the spectral sensitivity functions of the sensors deviate from the desired target color space. Several researchers have shown that when the color channels are correlated, color correction can result in sensor noise amplification [1-4]. In this paper, we describe a color correction method that significantly alleviates the problem of noise amplification. The key idea is to use spatially varying color correction that adapts to local image statistics. We show experimental results that illustrate the reduction of noise when color correction is performed.

Modified CLPSO-based fuzzy classification System: Color Image Segmentation
Fuzzy segmentation is an effective way of segmenting out objects in images containing both random noise and varying illumination. In this paper, a modified method based on the Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimization (CLPSO) is proposed for pixel classification in HSI color space by selecting a fuzzy classification system with minimum number of fuzzy rules and minimum number of incorr...

In this paper we propose to investigate the use of a vectorial total variation model with spatially varying regularization and data terms for color image denoising and restoration. We pay attention to two main minimization problems: the minimization of a weighted vectorial total variation term TVg, which acts as a regularization term, using the L norm as data term or the minimization of the vec...

متن کاملCoding for Channels with SNR Variation: Spatial Coupling and Efficient Interleaving
In magnetic-recording systems, consecutive sections experience different signal to noise ratios (SNRs). To perform error correction over these systems, one approach is to use an individual block code for each section. However, a section affected by a lower SNR shows a weaker performance compared to a section affected by a higher SNR. A commonly used technique is to perform interleaving across b...
