Warp and weft spacing and its coefficient of variation affect the physical properties of fabrics such as fabric hand, frictional and mechanical properties. In this paper the weft and warp spacing and its coefficient of variation for plain weave is calculated using Fourier transforms. Different methods have been used in this work including autocorrelation function. First, two dimensional power s...

In the paper is presented a new method for efficient compression of still images, based on the Inverse Difference Pyramid (IDP) decomposition. A special version of the method is developed for the lossless compression of graphics and texts. The method is aimed at secure and flexible transfer of information via Internet. It permits the insertion of multiple digital watermarks in the image phase d...

This paper presents a new image registration algorithm that accommodates locally large nonlinear deformations. The algorithm concurrently estimates the forward and reverse transformations between a pair of images while minimizing the inverse consistency error between the transformations. It assumes that the two images to be registered contain topologically similar objects and were collected usi...

In this study, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) with the size range of 20-30 nm were prepared by the modified controlled chemical co-precipitation method from the solution of ferrous/ferric mixed salt-solution in alkaline medium. In this process polyethylene glycol was used as a surfactant to prevent the solution from agglomeration. The prepared magnetic nanoparticles were characterize...

This paper presents a data focusing method (DFM) to image extended targets using the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm. The restriction on the number of transmitter-receiver antennas in a microwave imaging system deteriorates profiling an extended target that comprises many point scatterers. Under such situation, the subspace-based linear inverse scattering methods, like the MUSI...

This thesis examines the concept of image self-similarity and provides solutions to various associated inverse problems such as resolution enhancement and missing fractal codes. In general, many real-world inverse problems are ill-posed, mainly because of the lack of existence of a unique solution. The procedure of providing acceptable unique solutions to such problems is known as regularizatio...

Image registration is widely used for finding correspondences and comparing morphology in populations of biological forms. Due to the shape complexity, discretized approximation of continuous space, and so on, it is hard to find perfect registration and the point-wise ground truth correspondence rarely exists. In order to improve registration performance, registration errors and desired propert...

An essential goal in medical image registration is, the forward and reverse mapping matrices should be inverse to each other, i.e., inverse consistency. Conventional approaches enforce consistency in deterministic fashions, through incorporation of sub-objective cost function to impose source-destination symmetric property during the registration process. Assuming that the initial forward and r...
