The document proposes a methodology for visually lossless compression of monochrome stereo images using JPEG2000. It measures visibility thresholds for quantization distortion in JPEG2000, finding the thresholds depend on spatial frequency, wavelet coefficient variance, and gray levels in the left and right images. A model is developed for the thresholds to avoid extensive subjective experiments. The methodology compresses left and right images jointly using the model's thresholds to ensure errors are imperceptible. It is demonstrated on a 3D display system, with the results visually lossless as 2D and 3D images.
In the past two decades, the technique of image processing has made its way into every aspect of today’s tech-savvy society. Its applications encompass a wide variety of specialized disciplines including medical imaging, machine vision, remote sensing and astronomy. Personal images captured by various digital cameras can easily be manipulated by a variety of dedicated image processing algorithms. Image restoration can be described as an important part of image processing technique. The basic objective is to enhance the quality of an image by removing defects and make it look pleasing. The method used to carry out the project was MATLAB software. Mathematical algorithms were programmed and tested for the result to find the necessary output. In this project mathematical analysis was the basic core. Generally the spatial and frequency domain methods were both important and applicable in different technologies. This project has tried to show the comparison between spatial and frequency domain approaches and their advantages and disadvantages. This project also suggested that more research have to be done in many other image processing applications to show the importance of those methods.
In recent years due to advancement in video and image editing tools
it has become increasingly easy to modify the multimedia content. The
doctored videos are very difficult to identify through visual
examination as artifacts left behind by processing steps are subtle
and cannot be easily captured visually. Therefore, the integrity of
digital videos can no longer be taken for granted and these are not
readily acceptable as a proof-of-evidence in court-of-law. Hence,
identifying the authenticity of videos has become an important field
of information security.
In this thesis work, we present a novel approach to detect and
temporally localize video inpainting forgery based on optical flow
consistency. The proposed algorithm comprises of two stages. In the
first step, we detect if the given video is inpainted or authentic and
in the second step we perform temporal localization. Towards this, we
first compute the optical flow between frames. Further, we analyze the
goodness of fit of chi-square values obtained from optical flow
histograms using a Guassian mixture model. A threshold is then applied
to classify between authentic and inpainted videos. In the next step,
we extract Transition Probability Matrices (TPMs) by modelling the
optical flow as first order Markov process. SVM based classification
is then applied on the obtained TPM features to decide whether a block
of non-overlapping frames is authentic or inpainted thus obtaining
temporal localization. In order to evaluate the robustness of the
proposed algorithm, we perform the experiments against two popular and
efficient inpainting techniques. We test our algorithm on public
datasets like PETS and SULFA. The results show that the approach is
effective against the inpainting techniques. In addition, it detects
and localizes the inpainted frames in a video with high accuracy and
low false positives.

A New Technique of Extraction of Edge Detection Using Digital Image Processing IJMER
Digital image Processing is one of the basic and important tool in the image processing and
computer vision. In this paper we discuss about the extraction of a digital image edge using different
digital image processing techniques. Edge detection is the most common technique for detecting
discontinuities in intensity values. The input image or actual image have some noise that may cause the
of quality of the digital image. Firstly, wavelet transform is used to remove noises from the image
collected. Secondly, some edge detection operators such as Differential edge detection, Log edge
detection, canny edge detection and Binary morphology are analyzed. And then according to the
simulation results, the advantages and disadvantages of these edge detection operators are compared. It
is shown that the Binary morphology operator can obtain better edge feature. Finally, in order to gain
clear and integral image profile, the method of ordering closed is given. After experimentation, edge
detection method proposed in this paper is feasible.
A Novel Color Image Fusion for Multi Sensor Night Vision ImagesEditor IJCATR
In this paper presents a simple and fast color fusion approach for night vision images. Image fusion involves merging of two
or more images in such a way, to get the most advantageous characteristics of each image. Here the Visible image is fused with the
InfraRed (IR) image, so the desired result will be single, highly informative image providing full information. This paper focuses on
color constancy and color contrast problem.
Firstly the contrast of the infrared and visible image is enhanced using Local Histogram Equation. Then the two enhanced
images are fused in three compounds of a LAB image using aDWT image fusion. This paper adopts an approach which transfer color
from the reference image to the fused image using Color Transfer Technology. To enhance the contrast between the target and the
background, a scaling factor is introduced in the transferring equation in the b channel. Finally our approach gives the Multiband
Fused image with the natural day-time color appearance and the hot targets are popped out with intense colors while the background

Denoising and Edge Detection Using SobelmethodIJMER
The main aim of our study is to detect edges in the image without any noise , In many of the images edges carry important information of the image, this paper presents a method which consists of sobel operator and discrete wavelet de-noising to do edge detection on images which include white Gaussian noises. There were so many methods for the edge detection, sobel is the one of the method, by using this sobel operator or median filtering, salt and pepper noise cannot be removed properly, so firstly we use complex wavelet to remove noise and sobel operator is used to do edge detection on the image. Through the pictures obtained by the experiment, we can observe that compared to other methods, the method has more obvious effect on edge detection.
Adaptive Noise Reduction Scheme for Salt and Peppersipij
In this paper, a new adaptive noise reduction scheme for images corrupted by impulse noise is presented. The proposed scheme efficiently identifies and reduces salt and pepper noise. MAG (Mean Absolute Gradient) is used to identify pixels which are most likely corrupted by salt and pepper noise that are candidates for further median based noise reduction processing. Directional filtering is then applied after noise reduction to achieve a good tradeoff between detail preservation and noise removal. The proposed scheme can remove salt and pepper noise with noise density as high as 90% and produce better result in terms of qualitative and quantitative measures of images.
Ghost free image using blur and noise estimationijcga
This paper presents an efficient image enhancement method by fusion of two different exposure images in
low-light condition. We use two degraded images with different exposures: one is a long-exposure image
that preserves the brightness but contains blur and the other is a short-exposure image that contains a lot of
noise but preserves object boundaries. The weight map used for image fusion without artifacts of blur and
noise is computed using blur and noise estimation. To get a blur map, edges in a long-exposure image are
detected at multiple scales and the amount of blur is estimated at detected edges. Also, we can get a noise
map by noise estimation using a denoised short-exposure image. Ghost effect between two successive
images is avoided according to the moving object map that is generated by a sigmoid comparison function
based on the ratio of two input images. We can get result images by fusion of two degraded images using
the weight maps. The proposed method can be extended to high dynamic range imaging without using
information of a camera response function or generating a radiance map. Experimental results with various
sets of images show the effectiveness of the proposed method in enhancing details and removing ghost
artifacts.

Denoising Process Based on Arbitrarily Shaped WindowsCSCJournals
Many factors, such as moving objects, introduce noise in digital images. The presence of noise affects image quality. The image denoising process works on reconstructing a noiseless image and improving its quality. When an image has an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) then denoising becomes a challenging process. In our research, we present an improved algorithm for image denoising in the wavelet domain. Homogenous regions for an input image are estimated using a region merging algorithm. The local variance and wavelet shrinkage algorithm are applied to denoise each image patch. Experimental results based on peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) measurements showed that our algorithm provided better results compared with a denoising algorithm based on a minimum mean square error (MMSE) estimator.

IMAGE ENHANCEMENT IN CASE OF UNEVEN ILLUMINATION USING VARIABLE THRESHOLDING ...ijsrd.com
Uneven illumination always affects the visual quality images which results in poor understanding about the content of the images. There is no accepted universal image enhancement algorithm or specific criteria which can fulfill user needs. The processed image may be very different with the original image in the visual effects, but it also may be similar to the original image [1]. It will be a developing tradition to integrate the advantage of various algorithms to practical application to image enhancements [2]. Zhang et al. [3] presents an adaptive image contrast enhancement method. The proposed method is based on a local gamma correction piloted by histogram analysis. In this paper , to avoid uneven Illuminance image is divided into different segments . It works locally to decrease contrast as if we perform enhancement techniques globally on portions which are already bright then this gives poor results. Enhancement techniques are applied only to those dark portions. We need accurate method that not only enhance the image but also preserve the information.
Post-Segmentation Approach for Lossless Region of Interest Codingsipij
This paper presents a lossless region of interest coding technique that is suitable for interactive telemedicine over networks. The new encoding scheme allows a server to transmit only a part of a compressed image data progressively as a client requests it. This technique is different from region scalable coding in JPEG2000 since it does not define region of interest (ROI) when encoding occurs. In the proposed method, the image is fully encoded and stored in the server. It also allows a user to select a ROI after the compression is done. This feature is the main contribution of research. The proposed coding method achieves the region scalable coding by using the integer wavelet lifting, successive quantization, and partitioning that rearranges the wavelet coefficients into subsets. Each subset that represents a local area in an image is then separately coded using run-length and entropy coding. In this paper, we will show the benefits of using the proposed technique with examples and simulation results.
AN EMERGING TREND OF FEATURE EXTRACTION METHOD IN VIDEO PROCESSINGcscpconf
Recently the progress in technology and flourishing applications open up new forecast and defy
for the image and video processing community. Compared to still images, video sequences
afford more information about how objects and scenarios change over time. Quality of video is
very significant before applying it to any kind of processing techniques. This paper deals with
two major problems in video processing they are noise reduction and object segmentation on
video frames. The segmentation of objects is performed using foreground segmentation based
and fuzzy c-means clustering segmentation is compared with the proposed method Improvised
fuzzy c – means segmentation based on color. This was applied in the video frame to segment
various objects in the current frame. The proposed technique is a powerful method for image
segmentation and it works for both single and multiple feature data with spatial information.
The experimental result was conducted using various noises and filtering methods to show which is best suited among others and the proposed segmentation approach generates good quality segmented frames.
Use of Wavelet Transform Extension for Graphics Image Compression using JPEG2...CSCJournals
The new image compression standard JPEG2000, provides high compression rates for the same visual quality for gray and color images than JPEG. JPEG2000 is being adopted for image compression and transmission in mobile phones, PDA and computers. An image may contain the formatted text and graphics data. The compression performance of the JPEG2000 behaves poorly when compressing an image with low color depth such as graphics images. In this paper, we propose a technique to distinguish the true color images from graphics images and to compress graphics images using a simplified JPEG2000 compression method that will improve the compression performance. This method can be easily adapted in image compression applications without changing the syntax of compressed stream.

Frequency Domain Blockiness and Blurriness Meter for Image Quality AssessmentCSCJournals
Image and video compression introduces distortions (artefacts) to the coded image. The most prominent artefacts added are blockiness and blurriness. Many existing quality meters are normally distortion-specific. This paper proposes an objective quality meter for quantifying the combined blockiness and blurriness distortions in frequency domain. The model first applies edge detection and cancellation, then spatial masking to mimic the characteristics of the human visual system. Blockiness is then estimated by transforming image into frequency domain, followed by finding the ratio of harmonics to other AC components. Blurriness is determined by comparing the high frequency coefficients of the reference and coded images due to the fact that blurriness reduces the high frequency coefficients. Then, both blockiness and blurriness distortions are combined for a single quality metric. The meter is tested on blocky and blurred images from the LIVE image database, with a correlation coefficient of 95-96%.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

A methodology for visually lossless jpeg2000 compression of monochrome stereo images
1. A Methodology for Visually Lossless JPEG2000
Compression of Monochrome Stereo Images
ABSTRACT
A methodology for visually lossless compression of monochrome
stereoscopic 3D images is proposed.
Visibility thresholds are measured for quantization distortion in
JPEG2000. These thresholds are found to be functions of not only spatial
frequency, but also of wavelet coefficient variance, as well as the gray
level in both the left and right images.
To avoid a daunting number of measurements during subjective
experiments, a model for visibility thresholds is developed.
The left image and right image of a stereo pair are then compressed
jointly using the visibility thresholds obtained from the proposed model
to ensure that quantization errors in each image are imperceptible to both
eyes.
This methodology is then demonstrated via a particular 3D stereoscopic
display system with an associated viewing condition.
The resulting images are visually lossless when displayed individually as
2D images, and also when displayed in stereoscopic 3D mode.
3. EXISTING SYSTEM
Presence of crosstalk via stimulus images. Since the crosstalk
observed in one channel is a function of the gray levels in both
channels, it is reasonable to suspect that the resulting VTs depend
not only on the parameters studied previously for 2D images in
and , but also on the combination of gray levels displayed in the
left and right channels.
Described previously, the maximum absolute error over all
coefficients in a codeblock should be smaller than the VT of the
codeblock in order to obtain a visually lossless encoding.
In other words, let D(Z) be the maximum absolute error that would
be incurred if only coding passes 0 through Z were decoded.
The existence of this effect can be understood as an extension of
the fact that noise visibility is a function of background gray level,
as discussed previously for 2D images in conjunction.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
• A methodology for visually lossless compression of monochrome
stereoscopic 3D images is proposed.
• Visibility thresholds are measured for quantization distortion in
JPEG2000.
4. • These thresholds are found to be functions of not only spatial
frequency, but also of wavelet coefficient variance, as well as the
gray level in both the left and right images.
• To avoid a daunting number of measurements during subjective
experiments, a model for visibility thresholds is developed.
• The left image and right image of a stereo pair are then compressed
jointly using the visibility thresholds obtained from the proposed
model to ensure that quantization errors in each image are
imperceptible to both eyes.
• This methodology is then demonstrated via a particular 3D
stereoscopic display system with an associated viewing condition.
• The resulting images are visually lossless when displayed
individually as 2D images, and also when displayed in stereoscopic
3D mode.
• Based on all relevant parameters, a model for VTs in stereoscopic
3D images is proposed.
• It is worth noting that a straightforward application of the proposed
methodology would result in a fixed design for each display device
and viewing condition.
• On the other hand, results for other display systems and/or lighting
conditions may be obtained via the proposed methodology.

Modules Description
Stereoscopic images:
• we investigate here the visually lossless compression of 3D stereoscopic
images. To this end, we consider the contrast sensitivity function (CSF)
for stereoscopic 3D images in the presence of crosstalk.
• Three stereoscopic images are shown on the display concurrently.
• One is placed at the top center of the screen, and the other two are
arranged at the bottom left and bottom right, respectively.
• The other two stereoscopic images contain no noise. the three
stereoscopic images are displayed for 20 seconds.
• stereoscopic images is adapted from the coding method of . In JPEG2000,
a subband is partitioned into rectangular codeblocks.
• The coefficients of each codeblock are then quantized and encoded via
bit-plane coding. The results reported in Table IV are for the latter VTs.
• Evidently, larger bitrates are required to achieve visually lossless coding
for 3D stereoscopic images than for 2D images for the display and
viewing conditions employed.
• but also the various combinations of luminance values in both the left and
right channels of stereoscopic images.
7. • The VTs obtained via the proposed model were then employed in the
development of a visually lossless coding scheme for monochrome
stereoscopic images.
Visually lossless coding:
• The proposed coding method for visually lossless compression of 8-bit
monochrome stereoscopic images is adapted from the coding method of .
• In JPEG2000, a subband is partitioned into rectangular codeblocks. The
coefficients of each codeblock are then quantized and encoded via bit-
plane coding.
• The actual number of coding passes included in a compressed code
stream can vary from codeblock to codeblock and is typically selected to
optimize mean squared error over the entire image for a given target bit
rate.
• Rather than minimizing mean squared error, the method proposed in
includes the minimum number of coding passes necessary to achieve
visually lossless encoding of a 2D image.
• This is achieved by including a sufficient number of coding passes for a
given codeblock such that the absolute error of every coefficient in that
codeblock is less than the VT for that codeblock. Evidently, larger
bitrates are required to achieve visually lossless coding for 3D
stereoscopic images than for 2D images for the display and viewing
conditions employed.
8. Discrete wavelet transform
• More recently, the CSF has been modeled using the discrete wavelet
transform . In that work, uniform noise was added to each wavelet
subband (one at a time) of an 8-bit constant 128 grayscale image to
generate a stimulus image.
• The method of was extended to a more realistic noise model in and .
Specifically, a quantization noise model was developed for the dead-zone
quantization of JPEG2000 as applied to wavelet transform coefficients.
• For the 5 level wavelet decomposition employed here, k = 3 represents
the median transform level.
• The nominal thresholds Tθ,3,l(Iθ,3,l , Iθ,3,r ) attempt to model the effect
of crosstalk caused by different intensities in the left and right images for
different orientations, but fixed variance and transform level.
• The inverse wavelet transform is performed, and the result is added to a
constant gray level image having all pixel intensities set to a fixed value
Iθ,3,l between 0 and 255.
• After the addition, the value of each pixel in this stimulus image is
rounded to the closest integer between 0 and 255.
JPEG2000:
9. • Specifically, a quantization noise model was developed for the dead-zone
quantization of JPEG2000 as applied to wavelet transform coefficients.
Then, rather than adding uniform noise to a wavelet subband as in ,
stimulus images were produced by adding noise generated via the dead-
zone quantization noise model.
• Appropriate VTs derived from this model are then used to design a
JPEG2000 coding scheme which compresses the left and right images of
a stereo pair jointly.
• The performance of the proposed JPEG2000 coding scheme is
demonstrated by compressing monochrome stereo pairs.
• The resulting left and right compressed image files can be decoded
separately by a standard JPEG2000 decoder.
• To facilitate visually losslessly compression via JPEG2000, VT models
are developed in this section, for both the left and right images of stereo
pairs.
• JPEG2000 codeblock of a 2D image is defined as the largest quantization
step size for which quantization distortion remains invisible.
• visually lossless JPEG2000 for 2D images and our proposed visually
lossless JPEG2000 for stereoscopic 3D images.
• Compressed codestreams created via the proposed encoder can be
decompressed using any JPEG2000 compliant decoder.
10. Identification Of Decompressed Jpeg Images Based On Quantization Noise
Analysis
From above, we know that the quantization noise distributions are
different in two JPEG compression cycles. In the following, we first
define a quantity, call forward quantization noise, and show its relation to
quantization noise. Then, we give the upper bound of its variance, which
depends on whether the image has been compressed before. Finally, we
develop a simple algorithm to differentiate decompressed JPEG images
from uncompressed images.
Evaluation on JPEG Images From a Database With Random Quality
Factors
• Since the decompressed JPEG images encountered in daily life are
coming from different sources, and thus having been compressed with
varying quality factors. We conduct the following experiment to show the
performance on random quality factors.
• Test Image Set: To increase the amount and the diversity of images for
testing, and also to test whether the thresholds of the methods heavily rely
on image database, we use the test image set composed of 9,600 color
JPEG images created by Fontani et al.
11. A. Internet Image Classification
The first application of our JPEG identification method is Internet
image classification. Internet search engines cur gently allows users to
search by content type, but not by compression history. There may be
some graphic designers who wish to differentiate good-quality
decompressed images from uncompressed images in a set of images
returned by Internet search engines. In this case, searching images by
compression history is important. In this section, we show the feasibility
of such an application.
Image Classification Algorithm: We first convert color images into
gray-scale images. Then we divide each image into non-overlapping
macro-blocks of size B × B (e.g., B = 128, 64, or 32). If the dimension of
the image is not exactly the multiple times of B, the last a few rows or
columns are removed from testing. Next, we perform JPEG identification
on each macro-block. We can use the threshold as given in Table I for
each macro-block size. For a test image I, suppose it contains a total
number of N(B) macro-blocks, and assume a number of D(B) macro-
blocks are identified as decompressed. We use a measuring quantity,
called block hit (BT), to assess the proportion of macro-blocks being
identified, i.e.,
