spectral decomposition of time series has a significant role in seismic data processing and interpretation. since the earth acts as a low-pass filter, it changes frequency content of passing seismic waves. conventional representing methods of signals in time domain and frequency domain cannot show time and frequency information simultaneously. time-frequency transforms upgraded spectral decompo...

The use of color in image processing is motivated by two principal factors; First color is a powerful descriptor that often simplifies object identification and extraction from a scene. Second, human can discern thousands of color shades and intensities, compared to about only two dozen shades of gray. In RGB model, each color appears in its primary spectral components of red, green and blue. T...

Autocorrelation and cross-correlation have been defined and utilized in signal and image processing for many years, but not for color or vector images. In this poster we present for the first time a definition of correlation applicable to color images, based on quaternions or hypercomplex numbers. We have devised a visualization of the result using the polar form of a quaternion in which color ...

We gave a lecture regarding the principles of endoscopes to students studying medical engineering. The following was the lecture. The light from the light source passed through the rotating RGB filter, and changed to a red, a green, and a blue light, respectively, and these three colored lights illuminated an object. Each light reflected from the object passed through a lens and was received by...

mage inpainting is a process for filling in part of an image, using information from its surrounding area. We choose a PDE (Partial Differential Equation) based method, i.e., we pick up a differential equation which assumes the present distorted image as its initial data, and evolve the data in time so that the missing information will be filled in by data from the surroundings of the defected ...

This paper proposes a new method for enhancing the contrast of color images based on Wavelet Transform and human visual system. The RGB (red, green, and blue) values of each pixel in a color image are converted to HSV (hue, saturation and value) values. To the V (luminance value) components of the color image, Wavelet Transform is applied so that the V components are decomposed into the approxi...

In the last few years there is a tremendous development in the area of high quality digital camera technology. So our life is full of the use of these digital images. However now a days there are lot of software (for example Photoshop, Photoscape, Photoplus and Picasa etc.) that can be used to modify these digital image. Therefore we cannot use these images as a proof or evidence. Therefore det...

A channel transformation based on opponent-color theory of the color vision models is applied to optical pattern recognition so that the conventional red, green, and blue (RGB) channels are transformed into bright–dark, red–green, and yellow–blue (ATD) channels. Matched filtering and correlation are performed over the new components of the target and the scene in the ATD system. The proposed tr...

This paper presents a steganographic scheme based on the RGB colour cover image. The secret message bits are embedded into each colour pixel sequentially by the pixel-value differencing (PVD) technique. PVD basically works on two consecutive non-overlapping components; as a result, the straightforward conventional PVD technique is not applicable to embed the secret message bits into a colour pi...
