A tracking system with color and contour information is more efficient and robust than one with color or contour only. However, it is difficult to use both color and contour information. In this paper, we present an approach using the particle filter to fuse color and contour cues in tracking. First, we combine color and contour information in a Kalman filter to generate the proposal distributi...

We propose methods of enhancing pinhole-type integral imaging ray density, resolution, and expressible depth range using a color filter pinhole array on a liquid crystal display panel with a projection scheme. A color filter structure on a liquid crystal display panel acts as pinhole array in integral imaging with separation of color channels. In conventional pinhole-type integral imaging, the ...

The physiology of human visual perception helps explain different uses for color and luminance in visual arts. When visual fields are isoluminant, they look the same to our luminance processing pathway, while potentially looking quite different to the color processing path. This creates a perceptual tension exploited by skilled artists. In this paper, we show how reproducing a target color usin...

A fuzzy approach is proposed here for restoring color images that are corrupted with additive noise. The proposed fuzzy approach consists of two sub-filters, where the first fuzzy sub-filter computes the fuzzy distances between the color components of the central pixel and its neighborhood using Gaussian combination membership function, and the second sub-filter corrects the pixels where color ...

Interpolating full-resolution color images from color-filterarray (CFA) samples is Image demosaicing. Bayer pattern is popular among various CFA patterns and demosaicing with this Bayer pattern produces high resolution color images. This paper presents a new demosaicing approach for spatially sampled image data perceived through a color filter array, and thereby exploiting the correlation of co...

As pixel sizes approach the diffraction limit, optical and carrier crosstalk will increase substantially. Very high crosstalk leads to a reduction in SNR and color reproduction quality when conventional color filter arrays (CFAs) such as the Bayer patterns (RGB and CMY) are used. We present the design and analysis of new color filter array patterns for improving the color error and SNR deterior...

Digital images from a CCD or CMOS sensor with a color filter array must undergo a demosaicing process to combine the separate color samples into a single color image. This interpolation process can interfere with the subsequent superresolution process. Plenoptic superresolution, which relies on precise sub-pixel sampling across captured microimages, is particularly sensitive to such resampling ...

This paper focuses on a noise filtering in color image sequences, where a new class of center-weighted vector directional filters is provided. According to high dimensionality of color image sequences, where besides the spatial frequencies in the frames it is necessary to consider the temporal correlation of an image sequence and the correlation between color channels too, the processing of col...

In this paper, we present content based image retrieval using two features color and texture. Humans tend to differentiate images based on color, therefore color features are mostly used in CBIR. Color histogram is mostly used to represent color features but it cannot entirely characterize the image. Color Histogram is also rotation invariant about the view axis. Regularity, directionality, smo...
