hyperion hyperspectral data contains a very rich source of information from the earth surface that collects 242 narrow contiguous spectral bands. achieving this source of rich information is subject to the performance of suitable image processing methods on raw satellite data. satellite image processing methods can be classified into two categories of statistical-based and spectral-based. in th...

self-affine maps were successfully used for edge detection, image segmentation, and contour extraction. they belong to the general category of patch-based methods. particularly, each self-affine map is defined by one pair of patches in the image domain. by minimizing the difference between these patches, the optimal translation vector of the self-affine map is obtained. almost all image process...

as the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. this processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...

volume estimation of most agricultural products using mathematical methods is not accurate because of their irregular shape. an alternative method is image processing, which can be used in continuous sorting machines. the objective of this study is to find a practical method for volume estimation of potatoes using image processing. fifty potatoes (marfona variety) were selected as experimental ...

The current methods of turfgrass evaluations are often based on human-based assessment methods. However, eliminating subjective errors from such evaluations is often impossible. This research compared the accuracy of human-based and digital image processing-based methods for quality assessment of turfgrasses. Four turfgrass plots were evaluated using the two mentioned methods. In the human-base...

Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a technology that creates three dimensional (3D) images of breast tissue. Tomosynthesis mammography detects lesions that are not detectable with other imaging systems. If image reconstruction time is in the order of seconds, we can use Tomosynthesis systems to perform Tomosynthesis-guided Interventional procedures. This research has been designed to study u...

improving the quality of medical images at pre and post-surgery operations are necessary for beginning and speeding up the recovery process. partial differential equations (pdes)-based models have become a powerful and well known tool in different areas of image processing such as denoising, multiscale image analysis, edge detection and other fields of image processing and computer vision. in t...
