Quaternion matrix singular value decomposition and its applications for color image processing

چکیده
In this paper, we first discuss the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a quaternion matrix and propose an algorithm to calculate the SVD of a quaternion matrix using its equivalent complex matrix. The singular values of a quaternion matrix are still real and positive, but the two unitary matrices are quaternion matrices with quaternion entries. Then, applications for color image processing by the SVD of a quaternion matrix are given. Since a quatemion matrix can represent a color image, so we can use the SVD of a quaternion matrix to decompose a color image. Therefore, many useful image processing methods by SVD, such as eigen-images, image compression, image enhancement and denoise, can be extended to color image processing without separating the color image into three channel images.

متن کاملQuaternion Color Curvature
In this paper we propose a novel approach to measuring curvature in color or vector-valued images (up to 4-dimensions) based on quaternion singular value decomposition of a Hessian matrix. This approach generalizes the existing scalar-image curvature approach which makes use of the eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix [1]. In the case of vector-valued images, the Hessian is no longer a 2D matrix b...
