چکیده

The classical method of numerically computing the Fourier transform of digitizedfunctions in one or in ddimensions is the so-called discrete Fourier transform ( D F T ) , efficiently implemented as Fast Fourier Transform ( F F T ) algorithms. In m n y cases the D F T is not an adequate appmximation of the continuous Fourier transform. The method presented in this contribution provides accurate approximations of the continuous Fourier transform with similar time complexity. The assumption of signal periodicity is no longer posed and allows to compute numerical Fourier transforms in a broader domain of frequency than the usual halfperiod of the D F T . In imagepmcessing this behavior is highly welcomed since it allows to obtain the Fourier transform of an image without the usual interferences of the periodicity of the classical D F T . The mathematical method is developed and numerical examples are presented.

Accurate Fruits Fault Detection in Agricultural Goods using an Efficient Algorithm

The main purpose of this paper was to introduce an efficient algorithm for fault identification in fruits images. First, input image was de-noised using the combination of Block Matching and 3D filtering (BM3D) and Principle Component Analysis (PCA) model. Afterward, in order to reduce the size of images and increase the execution speed, refined Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) algorithm was uti...

Assessment of the Wavelet Transform for Noise Reduction in Simulated PET Images

Introduction: An efficient method of tomographic imaging in nuclear medicine is positron emission tomography (PET). Compared to SPECT, PET has the advantages of higher levels of sensitivity, spatial resolution and more accurate quantification. However, high noise levels in the image limit its diagnostic utility. Noise removal in nuclear medicine is traditionally based on Fourier decomposition o...

Image Change Detection using Discrete Fractional Fourier Transform along with Intensity Normalization and Thresholding

This research paper describes an image change detection method based upon the Discrete Fractional Fourier transform (DFrFT) along with intensity normalization and thresholding. DFrFT is used as it provides extra degree of freedom to detect accurate changed regions. The use of intensity normalization and thresholding ensure that change is based on appearance or disappearance of objects only, wit...
