Spatially Adaptive Flicker Compensation for Archived Film Sequences Using a Nonlinear Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an algorithm suitable for the compensation of flicker in archived film sequences. The proposed method is a substantial improvement over our previous work which adopted a nonlinear approach to flicker compensation motivated by fundamental principles of photographic image registration. The improvements include reliability weighting, spatial adaptation and motion compensated weighting. We present experimental evidence which suggests that our method compares favourably with competing state-of-the-art techniques for flicker correction.

Electric arc furnace (EAF) is one of the largest loads in electric power systems. It is highly time varying and nonlinear. Its reactive power variations cause voltage fluctuations in nearby system which is known as flicker. On the other hand the nonlinear voltage-current characteristic causes strong voltage and current harmonics in EAF. To this end Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) techn...

Friction is a nonlinear phenomenon which has destructive effects on performance of control systems. To obviate these effects, friction compensation is an effectual solution. In this paper, an adaptive technique is proposed in order to eliminate limit cycles as one of the undesired behaviors due to presence of friction in control systems which happen frequently. The proposed approach works for n...
متن کاملFlicker Parameters Estimation in Old Film Sequences Containing Moving Objects
The aim of this study is to improve the accuracy of flicker parameters estimation in old film sequences in which moving objects are present. Conventional methods tend to fail in flicker parameters estimation due to the effects of moving objects. Our proposed method firstly utilizes an adaptive Gaussian mixture model (GMM)-based method to detect the moving objects in the film sequences, and comb...
