چکیده

The distance transform is a basic operation in computer vision, pattern recognition and robotics. In this paper, we consider the city block (L1) distance metric. An algorithm for computing the city block distance transform on recon"gurable meshes is proposed in this paper. The time complexity and scalability of the algorithm are analysed. The results indicate that the algorithm is scalable and ef"cient.

DPML-Risk: An Efficient Algorithm for Image Registration

Targets and objects registration and tracking in a sequence of images play an important role in various areas. One of the methods in image registration is feature-based algorithm which is accomplished in two steps. The first step includes finding features of sensed and reference images. In this step, a scale space is used to reduce the sensitivity of detected features to the scale changes. Afterw...

Simulation Between Enhanced Meshes and the Multiple Associative Computing (MASC) Model

MASC (for Multiple Associative Computing) is a practical, highly scalable joint control parallel, data parallel model that naturally supports massive parallelism and a wide range of applications. In this paper, we propose efficient algorithms for the MASC model with a 2-D mesh to simulate enhanced meshes, e.g., meshes with multiple broadcasting (MMB), and basic reconfigurable meshes (BRM). The ...

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...
