In visual secret sharing (VSS) schemes, a secret image can be visually revealed from overlapping shadow images without additional computations. However, the contrast of reconstructed image is much lost. Employing reversing operation to reverse black and white pixels as well as increasing encoding runs is an effective way to improve the contrast. A novel VSS scheme with reversing is presented in...

We present a new cooccurrence matrix based approach for multispectral texture analysis. The spectral and spatial domains of the multispectral textures are processed separately. The color space used in this study is represented by subspaces and it is class$ed by the averaged learning subspace method (ALSM). In the spatial domain we use a generalized cooccurrence matrix for vector valued pixels. ...

Flexible displays are attracting considerable attention as a visual interface for applications such as in electronic papers and paper electronics. Passive or active matrix addressing of individual pixels require display elements that include proper signal addressability, which is typically provided by non-linear device characteristics or by incorporating transistors into each pixel. Including s...

We propose a novel statistical descriptor, Multiple References Histogram Matrix (MRHM), for robust shape retrieval, especially for degraded shape images. For each shape image, MRHM first generates uniform grids and filters noises in each grid by line Hough transformations and curve-fitting transformations. Then MRHM selects a reference for each grid and calculates its local distribution between...

We report a color tunable display consisting of two passive-matrix micro-LED array chips. The device has combined vertically stacked blue and green passive-matrix LED array chips sandwiched by a transparent bonding material. We demonstrate that vertically stacked blue and green micro-pixels are independently controllable with operation of four color modes. Moreover, the color of each pixel is t...

Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis has been carried out with a series of 107 anti-HIV HEPT compounds with antiviral activity, which was performed by chemometrics methods. Bi-dimensional images were used to calculate some pixels and multivariate image analysis was applied to QSAR modelling of the anti-HIV potential of HEPT analogues by means of multivariate calibration,...

We present a single-chip image processing solution for industrial vision systems. A processor matrix is interleaved with a photo diode matrix. The circuit solution is well suited for both gray scale and binary operations on images. A gray scale image is obtained by using the time needed to integrate the photo-current to a certain voltage. The photo-diode read-out unit is built with a minimal se...

Image-guided depth completion aims to generate dense maps from sparse guided by their corresponding color (RGB) images. In this paper, we propose deep using multi-affinity matrix. Recently, spatial propagation networks (SPNs) are used refine obtained initial completion. However, they use the same affinity matrix even in multiple iterations that has a limit improving performance, which is not ef...

Digital cameras record only one color component per pixel, red, green or blue. Demosaicking is the process by which one can infer a whole color matrix from such a matrix of values, thus interpolating the two missing color values per pixel. The selected color configuration of the sensor usually follows the Bayer color filter array, CFA. Out of a group of four pixels, two are green (in quincunx),...

In this paper, a novel image encryption scheme is proposed based on combination of pixel shuffling and W7. Due to sensitivity to initial conditions, chaotic maps have a good potential for designing dynamic permutation map. So a chaotic Henon map is used to generate permutation matrix. An external secret key is used to derive the initial conditions for the chaotic map and W7 secret key. Pixel sh...
