Median filters with larger windows offer greater smoothing and are more robust than the median filters of smaller windows. However, the larger median smoothers (the median filters with the larger windows) fail to track low order polynomial trends in the signals. Due to this, constant regions are produced at the signal corners, leading to the loss of fine details. In this paper, an algorithm, wh...

In this paper a wavelet-based logo watermarking scheme is presented. The logo watermark is embedded into all sub-blocks of the LLn sub-band of the transformed host image, using quantization technique. Extracted logos from all sub-blocks are merged to make the extracted watermark from distorted watermarked image. Knowing the quantization step-size, dimensions of logo and the level of wavelet tra...

In many computer vision applications, segmenting and extraction of moving objects in video sequences is an essential task. Background subtraction, by which each input image is subtracted from the reference image, has often been used for this purpose. In this paper, we offer a novel background-subtraction technique for real-time dynamic background generation using color images that are taken fro...

We develop a serial algorithm for separable median filtering that requires only two comparisons per element when the window size is three. In addition, fast parallel CREW PRAM algorithms with good processor-time product are developed for separable median filtering and two dimensional median filtering.

In view of the images polluted by mixed noise in actual image processing, in this paper, the hybrid filter algorithm combined by median filtering and wavelet transform is generalized to two-dimensional fractional wavelet domain, verified the effectiveness and advantages of hybrid filtering algorithm combined by median filtering and two-dimensional fractional wavelet transform. And put forward a...

Median filtering technique is often used to remove additive white, salt and pepper noise from a signal or a source image. This filtering method is essential for the processing of digital data representing analog signals in real time. The median filter considers each pixel in the image in turn and looks at its nearby neighbors to determine whether or not it is representative of its surroundings....
