in this paper, the performance of 11 different distances for image retrieval and classification, based on color, shape and texture, is evaluated. the precision-recall measure and the correct classification rate of the k-nn classifier are used to evaluate retrieval and classification performances, respectively. the experimental results for a database of 1000 images from 10 different semantic gro...

Visual cryptography is a popular solution for image encryption. The encryption procedure encrypts a image into the so-called shares which are noise-like secure images which can be transmitted or distributed over an untrusted communication channel. Using the properties of the human visual system to force the recognition of a secret message from overlapping shares, the image is decrypted without ...

this article is an attempt to investigate the aesthetics of color themes in arabic poetry. as a means of psychological description, color is one of the manifestations of realism in poetic images. in the application of colors some mythical and civilized structures are portrayed in the culture of nations. since languages have their own specific organizations of colors, the author aims to measure ...

Impulsive noise is one of the imposed defectives degrades the quality of images. Performance of many image processing applications directly depends on the quality of the input image. Hence, it is necessary to de-noise the degraded images without losing their valuable information such as edges. In this paper we propose a method to remove impulsive noise from color images without damaging the ima...

The present paper is aimed at introducing a new algorithm for image encryption using chaotic tent maps and the desired key image. This algorithm consists of two parts, the first of which works in the frequency domain and the second, in the time domain. In the frequency domain, a desired key image is used, and a random number is generated, using the chaotic tent map, in order to change the phase...
