Piecewise Linear Model-Based Image Enhancement
نویسنده
چکیده
A novel technique for the sharpening of noisy images is presented. The proposed enhancement system adopts a simple piecewise linear (PWL) function in order to sharpen the image edges and to reduce the noise. Such effects can easily be controlled by varying two parameters only. The noise sensitivity of the operator is further decreased by means of an additional filtering step, which resorts to a nonlinear model too. Results of computer simulations show that the proposed sharpening system is simple and effective. The application of the method to contrast enhancement of color images is also discussed.

Planelet Transform: A New Geometrical Wavelet for Compression of Kinect-like Depth Images
With the advent of cheap indoor RGB-D sensors, proper representation of piecewise planar depth images is crucial toward an effective compression method. Although there exist geometrical wavelets for optimal representation of piecewise constant and piecewise linear images (i.e. wedgelets and platelets), an adaptation to piecewise linear fractional functions which correspond to depth variation ov...
متن کاملCombined Linear And Nonlinear Image Enhancement
Image Enhancement is a commonly used approach for de-blurring the image. In general, image enhancement is to increase the contrast and remove noise so that the processed image is more suitable for special applications. There are two approaches for this – linear and nonlinear. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. But studies over the years showed that real applications use both ...
متن کاملEdge-Preserving Piecewise Linear Image Smoothing Using Piecewise Constant Filters
Most image smoothing filters in the literature assume a piecewise constant model of smoothed output images. However, the piecewise constant model assumption can cause artifacts such as gradient reversals in applications such as image detail enhancement, HDR tone mapping, etc. In these applications, a piecewise linear model assumption is more preferred. In this paper, we propose a simple yet ver...
متن کاملA speech enhancement approach using piecewise linear approximation of an explicit model of environmental distortions
This paper presents a speech enhancement approach derived by using a piecewise linear approximation (PLA) of an explicit model of environmental distortions. PLA is a generalization of two traditional approaches, namely vector Taylor series (VTS) and MAX approximations. Formulations are described for both maximum likelihood (ML) estimation of noise model parameters and minimum mean-squared error...
متن کاملHybrid model predictive control of a nonlinear three-tank system based on the proposed compact form of piecewise affine model
In this paper, a predictive control based on the proposed hybrid model is designed to control the fluid height in a three-tank system with nonlinear dynamics whose operating mode depends on the instantaneous amount of system states. The use of nonlinear hybrid model in predictive control leads to a problem of mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) which is very complex and time consuming t...
