Glass defects which result into poor quality are a major reason of embarrassment for manufacturers. Glass defects are typically unavoidable, but their occurrence must be minimized during the production of highquality glasses. It is a tedious process to manually inspect very large size glasses. The manual inspection process is slow, time-consuming and prone to human error. Automatic inspection s...

This paper introduces a new technique called adaptive wavelet thresholding and wavelet packet transform to denoised the image based on generalized Gaussian distribution.It chooses an adaptive threshold value which is level and subband dependent based on analyzing the subband coefficients.Experimental results, on different test images under different noise intensity conditions, shows proposed al...

Fusion or merging or pansharpening is the digital processing that combines the high spatial and multispectral information to obtain a fused multispectral image that retains the spatial information from the high resolution panchromatic image, as well as the spectral characteristics of the lower resolution multispectral image. Many fusion algorithms were developed and tested on different commerci...

In this paper, two new full-reference metrics for image quality assessment are presented. They are based on the Peak-Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Universal Quality Index (UQI) modified to take into account the Human Visual System (HVS) properties. Many studies confirm that the HVS is more sensitive to low frequency distortions rather than to high frequency ones. It is also very sensitive to...

Colour image enhancement is an emerging research area in various fields like forensics, atmospheric science, astrophotography, oceanography and medical imaging. In this paper an efficient colour image enhancement technique is proposed based on Undecimated Wavelet Transform (UWT). In order to preserve the chromatic information, at first the given RGB image is converted into HSI (Hue, Intensity a...
