Digital image processing and analysis can be an important tool for the restoration of works of art. This paper presents three applications of image processing in this field: a method for digital crack restoration of paintings, a technique for color restoration of old paintings and a method for mosaicing of partial images of works of art painted on curved surfaces. A digital archiving system for...

This paper presents a fully automatic image mosaicing method for needs of wide-area video surveillance. A pure featurebased approach was adopted for finding the registration between the images. This approach provides us with several advantages. Our method is robust against illumination variations, moving objects, image rotation, image scaling, imaging noise, and is relatively fast to calculate....

We propose a strategy for integrating descriptor-driven transformation into mosaicing sound synthesis, in which samples are selected by taking into account potential distances in the transformed space. Target descriptors consisting of chroma, mel-spaced filter banks, and energy are modeled with respect to windowed bandlimited resampling and mel-spaced filters, and later corrected with gain. The...
