In this research, first of all, the existing problems in fragmentation measurement are reviewed for the sake of its fast and reliable evaluation. Then, the available methods used for evaluation of blast results are mentioned. The produced errors especially in recognizing the rock fragments in computer-aided methods, and also, the importance of determination of their sizes in the image analysis ...

since the birth of multi–spectral imaging techniques, there has been a tendency to consider and process this new type of data as a set of parallel gray–scale images, instead of an ensemble of an n–d realization. although, even now, some researchers make the same assumption, it is proved that using vector geometries leads to better results. in this paper, first a method is proposed to extract th...

sensors onboard meteorological satellites such as modis and avhrr are able to collect information adequate in frequency but with low spatial resolution. the problem can be overcome, if one finds a way to increase the quality of the vegetation indices through searching in each individual pixel of the images, employing concurrent higher spatial resolution images. the objective of this study was t...

hyperion hyperspectral data contains a very rich source of information from the earth surface that collects 242 narrow contiguous spectral bands. achieving this source of rich information is subject to the performance of suitable image processing methods on raw satellite data. satellite image processing methods can be classified into two categories of statistical-based and spectral-based. in th...

one of the most fundamental features of digital image and the basic steps in image processing, analysis, pattern recognition and computer vision is the edge of an image where the preciseness and reliability of its results will affect directly on the comprehension machine system made objective world. several edge detectors have been developed in the past decades, although no single edge detector...

as the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. this processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...

physical properties of fruits and vegetables are the subject of many researches because of its importance in designing of agricultural machinery. banana fruit is one of important fruit. in this study some physical properties of banana fruit (cavendish variety) were determined. properties which were measured included weight of whole fruit peel and pulp weight, dimensions, surface area and projec...
