چکیده

In this paper, an efficient depth-aware image enhancement system is presented. The depth information and well-known depth-cue relative perception are used to enhance 2D still images or videos. Image enhancement has been developed for decades in a lot of fields. However, conventional approaches deal with images in the 2D(x-y) projective plane. The information of z-axis is not used. In this work, an efficient and complete system composed of 1) reconstructing depth from edge and 2) depth-aware enhancement is presented. The information of the third dimension in 3D space is extracted and exploited. Finally, the computational discussion and the visual performance are also shown. Keywords-component; depth-aware enhancement; depth genration; 2D-to-3D; depth perception

A Quantitative Investigation on the Effect of Edge Enhancement for Improving Visual Acuity at Different Levels of Contrast

Background: The major limitation in human vision is refractive error. Auxiliary equipment and methods for these people are not always available. In addition, limited range of accommodation in adult people when switching from a far point to a near point is not simply possible. In this paper, we are looking for solutions to use the facilities of digital image processing and displaying to improve ...

Real-time optical image subtraction and edge enhancement using ferroelectric liquid-crystal devices based on speckle modulation.

We carried out real-time optical image subtraction and edge enhancement based on a speckle modulation technique by using ferroelectric liquid-crystal polarization switches and a ferroelectric liquid-crystal spatial light modulator. A ferroelectric liquid-crystal spatial light modulator is employed as a real-time and multiple-exposure optical device, and successful results are obtained from thre...

A Deep Model for Super-resolution Enhancement from a Single Image

This study presents a method to reconstruct a high-resolution image using a deep convolution neural network. We propose a deep model, entitled Deep Block Super Resolution (DBSR), by fusing the output features of a deep convolutional network and a shallow convolutional network. In this way, our model benefits from high frequency and low frequency features extracted from deep and shallow networks...
