A Universal Approach to Designing an Image Interpolator with an Image Smoothing Filter

Image methamorphosis based on universal morphological interpolator

The paper presents the method for interpolating digital images that automatically generates a sequence of images showing the methamorphosis of the content of the first image into the content of the second. Morphological interpolation performs this transformation by the modification of shapes of objects present in both images. The method is based on universal morphological interpolator, which – ...

An Adaptive Fuzzy Image Smoothing Filter for Gaussian Noise

This paper presents a Gaussian noise filter that uses a sigmoid shaped membership function to model image information in the spatial domain. This function acts as a tunable smoothing intensification operator. With a proper choice of two sigmoid parameters ‘t’ and ‘a’, the filter strength can be tuned for removal of Gaussian noise in intensity images. An image information measure, Total Compatib...

Image Fusion with Edge Preserving Smoothing Filter

This paper introduces fast and effective fusing of images through merging of multiple images for creating a highly information fused image .Here the edge preserving smoothing filter is used as guided filter. The fusion criterion is to minimize the different error between the fused image and input image The proposed method is based on two scale decomposition of image into a detail layer capturin...

An Improved Pixon-Based Approach for Image Segmentation

An improved pixon-based method is proposed in this paper for image segmentation. In thisapproach, a wavelet thresholding technique is initially applied on the image to reduce noise and toslightly smooth the image. This technique causes an image not to be oversegmented when the pixonbasedmethod is used. Indeed, the wavelet thresholding, as a pre-processing step, eliminates theunnecessary details...
