With the rapid development of computer technology, information and network technology, the traditional retrieval model based on keywords and text description can not meet the needs of mass image retrieval. Therefore, content-based image retrieval has become a hot research topic at home and abroad in recent years. Content-based image retrieval CBIR (Content Based Image Retrieval) is a database t...

Objectives: In restorative dentistry, it is essential to estimate the amount of remnant tooth structure after caries removal to make the best treatment plan. The present study was aimed to determine whether there is a correlation between the real thickness of remnant dentin under carious lesion and the radiographical measurement from photostimulable phosphor plates (PSPs). Methods: a whole numb...

With quick development of digital images and the availability of imaging tools, massive amounts of images are created. Therefore, efficient management and suitable retrieval, especially by computers, is one of themost challenging fields in image processing. Automatic image annotation (AIA) or refers to attaching words, keywords or comments to an image or to a selected part of it. In this paper,...

Local binary pattern (LBP) operators, which measure the local contrast within a pixel's neighborhood, successfully applied to texture analysis, visual inspection, and image retrieval. In this paper, we recommend a semi blind and informed watermarking approach. The watermark has been built from the original image using Weber Law. The approach aims is to present a high robustness and imperceptibi...

It is necessary to detect suspected defect regions in the radiographic weld images to find the flaw and its causative factors. This requires processing of radiographic images by a suitable approach This paper presents an image processing approach to process incomplete penetration type flaws in radiographic images of the weld specimens considering morphological aspects of the image. In the prese...

Image processing and image analysis are the main aspects for obtaining information from digital image owing to the fact that this techniques give the desired details in most of the applications generally and Non-Destructive testing specifically. This paper presents a proposed method for the automatic detection of weld defects in radiographic images. Firstly, the radiographic images were enhance...

The Image retrieval plays a key role in day-to-days world. This work is a review of various references of various image retrieval methods. This paper starts with discussing the working conditions of text based image retrieval then the content-based retrieval: patterns of use, levels, the role of semantics, and the semantic gap. We briefly discuss about various techniques of content based image ...

Digital Image enhancement provides a multitude of choices for improving the visual quality of radiographic images. When the details of radiographic image are lost due to various reasons, image enhancement has been applied. Many algorithms have been proposed for image enhancement in the past decade. Contrast improvement algorithms are used to enhance image contrast and some algorithms come with ...
