In order to detect targets upon sea surface or near it, marine radars should be capable of distinguishing signals of target reflections from the sea clutter. Our proposed method in this paper relates to detection of dissimilar marine targets in an inhomogeneous environment with clutter and non-stationary noises, and is based on adaptive thresholding determination methods. The variance and t...

due to damaging effects of speckle noise to information of radar images, reduction of these effects has been considered by many researchers. we discussed speckle reduction of radar images based on curvelet transformation. more specifically we discussed the speckle reduction with emphasizing on preservation of the edges by hard thresholding of curvelet transformation. in this algorithm, first mu...

background: nowadays, analyzing human facial image has gained ever-increasing importance due to its various applications. image segmentation is required as a very important and fundamental operation for significant analysis and interpretation of images. methods: among the segmentation methods, image thresholding technique is one of the most well-known methods due to its simplicity, robustness a...

-In this paper, we show that Otsu's image thresholding, Kittler and Illingworth's minimum error thresholding, and Huang and Wang's fuzzy thresholding methods can be derived under a similar mathematical formulation. The difference among the three methods is the choice of different weighting functions for computing a criterion function that can be considered as a weighted summation of the image g...
