چکیده

bstract. We describe a method for automatically detecting treaks in printed images using adaptive window-based image proections and mutual information. The proposed approach accepts a canned image enclosing the defect and computes the projections cross the entire image at different window sizes. The resulting races collected from the projections are analyzed with a peak deection algorithm and subsequently correlated using normalized muual information to pinpoint the location and width of streak(s). Fially, for a given peak, the window size is changed adaptively to dentify and locate the intensity and length of the corresponding treak(s) while maximizing the signal-to-noise ratio. Results on synhetic and real-life images are provided to demonstrate the effectiveess of our proposed technique. © 2007 SPIE and IS&T. DOI: 10.1117/1.2816444

Noisy images edge detection: Ant colony optimization algorithm

The edges of an image define the image boundary. When the image is noisy, it does not become easy to identify the edges. Therefore, a method requests to be developed that can identify edges clearly in a noisy image. Many methods have been proposed earlier using filters, transforms and wavelets with Ant colony optimization (ACO) that detect edges. We here used ACO for edge detection of noisy ima...

An Automated algorithm for the identification of artifacts in mottled and noisy images

This thesis proposes an algorithm for automatically classifying a specific set of image quality (IQ) defects on noisy and mottled printed documents. A rough initial estimate of the defects' location i.e. defect detection is manually provided with a scanned image. The approach then proceeds to derive a more accurate segmentation by performing several image processing routines on the digital imag...

Adaptive Optimum Notch Filter for Periodic Noise Reduction in Digital Images

Periodic noises are unwished and spurious signals that create repetitive pattern on images and decreased the visual quality. Firstly, this paper investigates various methods for reducing the effects of the periodic noise in digital images. Then an adaptive optimum notch filter is proposed. In the proposed method, the regions of noise frequencies are determined by analyzing the spectral of noisy...

A FUZZY DIFFERENCE BASED EDGE DETECTOR

In this paper, a new algorithm for edge detection based on fuzzyconcept is suggested. The proposed approach defines dynamic membershipfunctions for different groups of pixels in a 3 by 3 neighborhood of the centralpixel. Then, fuzzy distance and -cut theory are applied to detect the edgemap by following a simple heuristic thresholding rule to produce a thin edgeimage. A large number of experime...

A Convolutional Neural Network based on Adaptive Pooling for Classification of Noisy Images

Convolutional neural network is one of the effective methods for classifying images that performs learning using convolutional, pooling and fully-connected layers. All kinds of noise disrupt the operation of this network. Noise images reduce classification accuracy and increase convolutional neural network training time. Noise is an unwanted signal that destroys the original signal. Noise chang...
