The document proposes a novel hybrid image denoising technique based on trilateral filtering and Gaussian conditional random field modeling. It combines trilateral filtering, which is an edge-preserving Gaussian filter, with Gaussian conditional random fields to deal with different noise levels in images. The technique involves first applying trilateral filtering to smooth the image, then using Gaussian conditional random fields on the smoothed image. Experimental results on test images show the proposed technique achieves better denoising performance than traditional trilateral filtering alone, as measured by higher peak signal-to-noise ratios and lower mean squared errors.
A common goal of the engineering field of signal processing is to reconstruct a signal from a series of sampling measurements. In general, this task is impossible because there is no way to reconstruct a signal during the times
that the signal is not measured. Nevertheless, with prior knowledge or assumptions about the signal, it turns out to
be possible to perfectly reconstruct a signal from a series of measurements. Over time, engineers have improved their understanding of which assumptions are practical and how they can be generalized. An early breakthrough in signal processing was the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem. It states that if the signal's highest frequency is less than half of the sampling rate, then the signal can be reconstructed perfectly. The main idea is that with prior knowledge about constraints on the signal’s frequencies, fewer samples are needed to reconstruct the signal. Sparse sampling (also known as, compressive sampling, or compressed sampling) is a signal processing technique for efficiently acquiring and reconstructing a signal, by finding solutions tounder determined linear systems. This is based on the principle that, through optimization, the sparsity of a signal can be exploited to recover it from far fewer samples than required by the Shannon-Nyquist sampling theorem. There are two conditions under which recovery is possible.[1] The first one is sparsity which requires the signal to be sparse in some domain. The second one is incoherence which is applied through the isometric property which is sufficient for sparse signals Possibility
of compressed data acquisition protocols which directly acquire just the important information Sparse sampling (CS) is a fast growing area of research. It neglects the extravagant acquisition process by measuring lesser values to reconstruct the image or signal. Sparse sampling is adopted successfully in various fields of image processing and proved its efficiency. Some of the image processing applications like face recognition, video encoding, Image encryption and reconstruction are presented here.

Accelerated Joint Image Despeckling Algorithm in the Wavelet and Spatial DomainsCSCJournals
Noise is one of the most widespread problems present in nearly all imaging applications. In spite of the sophistication of the recently proposed methods, most denoising algorithms have not yet attained a desirable level of applicability. This paper proposes a two-stage algorithm for speckle noise reduction jointly in the wavelet and spatial domains. At the first stage, the optimal parameter value of the spatial speckle reduction filter is estimated, based on edge pixel statistics and noise variance. Then the optimized filter is used at the second stage to additionally smooth the approximation image of the wavelet sub-band. A complexity reduction algorithm for wavelet decomposition is also proposed. The obtained results are highly encouraging in terms of image quality which paves the way towards the reinforcement of the proposed algorithm for the performance enhancement of the Block Matching and 3D Filtering algorithm tackling multiplicative speckle noise.

This paper presents the use of the inverse confidential technique on bilateral function with the territorial intensity-based optical flow to prove the effectiveness in noise resistance environment. In general, the image’s motion vector is coded by the technique called optical flow where the sequences of the image are used to determine the motion vector. But, the accuracy rate of the motion vector is reduced when the source of image sequences is interfered by noises. This work proved that the inverse confidential technique on bilateral function can increase the percentage of accuracy in the motion vector determination by the territorial intensity-based optical flow under the noisy environment. We performed the testing with several kinds of non-Gaussian noises at several patterns of standard image sequences by analyzing the result of the motion vector in a form of the error vector magnitude (EVM) and compared it with several noise resistance techniques in territorial intensity-based optical flow method.
Reduced Ordering Based Approach to Impulsive Noise Suppression in Color ImagesIDES Editor
In this paper a novel filtering design intended for
the impulsive noise removal in color images is presented.
The described scheme utilizes the rank weighted cumulated
distances between the pixels belonging to the local filtering
window. The impulse detection scheme is based on the
difference between the aggregated weighted distances assigned
to the central pixel of the window and the minimum value,
which corresponds to the rank weighted vector median. If the
difference exceeds an adaptively determined threshold value,
then the processed pixel is replaced by the mean of the
neighboring pixels, which were found to be not corrupted,
otherwise it is retained. The important feature of the described
filtering framework is its ability to effectively suppress
impulsive noise, while preserving fine image details. The
comparison with the state-of-the-art denoising schemes
revealed that the proposed filter yields better restoration
results in terms of objective restoration quality measures.
Review of Use of Nonlocal Spectral – Spatial Structured Sparse Representation...IJERA Editor
Noise reduction may be a vigorous analysis area in image method due to its importance in up the quality of image for object detection and classification. Throughout this paper, we've got a bent to develop a skinny illustration based noise reduction methodology for the hyperspectral imaging , that depends on the thought that the non-noise part in associate discovered signal is sparsely rotten over a redundant lexicon whereas the noise part does not have this property. The foremost contribution of the paper is at intervals the introduction of nonlocal similarity and spectral-spatial structure of hyperspectral imaging into skinny illustration. Non-locality suggests that the self-similarity of image, by that a full image is partitioned into some groups containing similar patches. The similar patches in each cluster unit sparsely delineate with a shared set of atoms throughout a lexicon making true signal and noise extra merely separated. Sparse illustration with spectral-spatial structure can exploit spectral and spatial joint correlations of hyperspectral imaging by victimization 3D blocks rather than 2-D patches for skinny secret writing, which collectively makes true signal and noise extra distinguished. Moreover, hyperspectral imaging has every signal-independent and signal-dependent noises, thus a mixed Poisson and man of science noise model is used. In order to create skinny illustration be insensitive to various noise distribution in numerous blocks, a variance-fitting transformation (VFT) is used to create their variance comparable, the advantages of the projected ways unit valid on every artificial and real hyperspectral remote sensing data sets.

Robustness of Median Filter For Suppression of Salt and Pepper Noise (SPN) an...CSCJournals
Noises in images are caused by many sources. Image de-noising has remained an active area of research. Results of numerical experiments on the robustness of median filter for suppression of Salt and Pepper Noise (SPN) and Random Valued Impulse Noise (RVIN) of varying noise densities are presented and discussed. Varying densities of SPN and RVIN were simulated and used to corrupt five selected test images which have different image frequencies. The corrupted images were filtered with Median Filters which has 3 by 3 kernel size. The effects of larger kernels were also examined. The performance metrics are the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Gain. SPN is found to have more adverse effects on images than RVIN. However, the Median filter is found to achieve a higher degree of noise suppression with SPN than RVIN. Effects of SPN and RVIN increase with an increase in noise density. Median filtering of SPN and RVIN corrupted images are found to be satisfactory with 3 by 3 kernel for noise densities up to the maximum of 60% and 40% noise densities respectively. Median filter Gain is found to increase with noise density up 40% and then reduce with further increase in noise density. To some extent, there is some correlation between Median filter gain and test image frequency. Using 5 by 5 kernel may improve noise suppression but the resulting filter image is blurred. 3 by 3 is the optimum kernel size.

Abstract: Primarily due to the progresses in super resolution imagery, the methods of segment-based image analysis for generating and updating geographical information are becoming more and more important. This work presents a image segmentation based on colour features with K-means clustering. The entire work is divided into two stages. First enhancement of color separation of satellite image using de correlation stretching is carried out and then the regions are grouped into a set of five classes using K-means clustering algorithm. At first, the spatial data is concentrated focused around every pixel, and at that point two separating procedures are added to smother the impact of pseudoedges. What's more, the spatial data weight is built and grouped with k-means bunching, and the regularization quality in every district is controlled by the bunching focus esteem. The exploratory results, on both reenacted and genuine datasets, demonstrate that the proposed methodology can adequately lessen the pseudoedges of the aggregate variety regularization in the level.
An Experimental Approach For Evaluating Superpixel's Consistency Over 2D Gaus...CSCJournals
This article proposes a rigorous method to assess the consistency of superpixels for different superpixel segmentation algorithms. The proposed method extracts the superpixels that remain unchanged over certain levels of noise by adopting the Jaccard Similarity Coefficient (JSC). Technically, we developed a measure of Jaccard similarity for superpixel segmentation algorithms to compare the similarity between sets of superpixels (original and noisy). The algorithm calls the superpixel segmentation algorithm to generate the superpixel results of the original images and saves their boundary masks and labels. It then applies varying degrees of noise to the images and produces the superpixels results, and the process is repeated for four levels with increased noise value at each iteration. We chose 2D Gaussian Blur, Impulse Noise and a combination of both to corrupt the images. The proposed algorithm generates similarity indices of superpixels (original and noisy) using Jaccard Similarity (JS). To be categorized as a consistent superpixel, the similarity index must meet a predefined coefficient threshold (?) of JSC. The superpixels consistency of four different superpixel segmentation algorithms including Bilateral geodesic distance (BGD), Flooding based superpixels generation (FBS), superpixels via geodesic distance (GDS), and Turbopixel (TP) are evaluated. Precisely, the experimental results demonstrated that no single algorithm was able to yield an optimal outcome and failed to maintain consistent superpixels at each level of noise. Conclusively, more robust superpixel algorithms must be developed to solve such problems effectively.

An Image Enhancement Approach to Achieve High Speed using Adaptive Modified B...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
For real time application scenarios of image processing, satellite imaginary has grown more interest by researches due to the informative nature of image. Satellite images are captured using high quality cameras. These images are captured from space using on-board cameras. Wrong ISO setting, camera vibrations or wrong sensory setting causes noise. The degraded image can cause less efficient results during visual perception which is a challenging issue for researchers. Another reason is that noise corrupts the image during acquisition, transmission, interference or dust particles on the scanner screen of image from satellite to the earth stations. If quality degraded images are used for further processing then it may result in wrong information extraction. In order to cater this issue, image filtering or denoising approach is required.
Since remote sensing images are captured from space using on-board camera which requires high speed operating device which can provide better reconstruction quality by utilizing lesser power consumption. Recently various approaches have been proposed for image filtering. Key challenges with these approaches are reconstruction quality, operating speed, image quality by preserving information at edges on image.
Proposed approach is named as modified bilateral filter. In this approach bilateral filter and kernel schemes are combined. In order to overcome the drawbacks, modified bilateral filtering by using FPGA to perform the parallelism process for denoising is implemented.

In order to eliminate the salt pepper and Gaussian mixed noise in X-ray weld image, the extreme value characteristics of salt and pepper noise are used to separate the mixed noise, and the non local mean filtering algorithm is used to denoise it. Because the smoothness of the exponential weighted kernel function is too large, it is easy to cause the image details fuzzy, so the cosine coefficient based on the function is adopted. An improved non local mean image denoising algorithm is designed by using weighted Gaussian kernel function
RESEARCH ON NOISE REDUCTION AND ENHANCEMENT ALGORITHM OF GIRTH WELD IMAGEsipij
In order to eliminate the salt pepper and Gaussian mixed noise in X-ray weld image, the extreme value
characteristics of salt and pepper noise are used to separate the mixed noise, and the non local mean
filtering algorithm is used to denoise it. Because the smoothness of the exponential weighted kernel
function is too large, it is easy to cause the image details fuzzy, so the cosine coefficient based on the
function is adopted. An improved non local mean image denoising algorithm is designed by using weighted
Gaussian kernel function. The experimental results show that the new algorithm reduces the noise and
retains the details of the original image, and the peak signal-to-noise ratio is increased by 1.5 dB. An
adaptive salt and pepper noise elimination algorithm is proposed, which can automatically adjust the
filtering window to identify the noise probability. Firstly, the median filter is applied to the image, and the
filtering results are compared with the pre filtering results to get the noise points. Then the weighted
average of the middle three groups of data under each filtering window is used to estimate the image noise
probability. Before filtering, the obvious noise points are removed by threshold method, and then the
central pixel is estimated by the reciprocal square of the distance from the center pixel of the window.
Finally, according to Takagi Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy rules, the output estimates of different models are fused by
using noise probability. Experimental results show that the algorithm has the ability of automatic noise
estimation and adaptive window adjustment. After filtering, the standard mean square deviation can be
reduced by more than 20%, and the speed can be increased more than twice. In the enhancement part, a
nonlinear image enhancement method is proposed, which can adjust the parameters adaptively and
enhance the weld area automatically instead of the background area. The enhancement effect achieves the
best personal visual effect. Compared with the traditional method, the enhancement effect is better and
more in line with the needs of industrial field.
Stereo matching based on absolute differences for multiple objects detectionTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
This article presents a new algorithm for object detection using stereo camera system. The problem to get an accurate object detion using stereo camera is the imprecise of matching process between two scenes with the same viewpoint. Hence, this article aims to reduce the incorrect matching pixel with four stages. This new algorithm is the combination of continuous process of matching cost computation, aggregation, optimization and filtering. The first stage is matching cost computation to acquire preliminary result using an absolute differences method. Then the second stage known as aggregation step uses a guided filter with fixed window support size. After that, the optimization stage uses winner-takes-all (WTA) approach which selects the smallest matching differences value and normalized it to the disparity level. The last stage in the framework uses a bilateral filter. It is effectively further decrease the error on the disparity map which contains information of object detection and locations. The proposed work produces low errors (i.e., 12.11% and 14.01% nonocc and all errors) based on the KITTI dataset and capable to perform much better compared with before the proposed framework and competitive with some newly available methods.

Dissertation report for image denoising using non-local mean algorithm, discussion about subproblem of noise reduction,descrption for problem in image noise
Medical Images are regularly of low contrast and boisterous/Noisy (absence of clarity) because of
the circumstances they are being taken. De-noising these pictures is a troublesome undertaking as they
ought to exclude any antiquities or obscuring of edges in the pictures. The Bayesian shrinkage strategy has
been chosen for thresholding in light of its sub band reliance property. The spatial space and Wavelet
based de-noising systems utilizing delicate thresholding strategy are contrasted and the proposed technique
utilizing GA (Genetic Algorithm) is used. The GA procedure is proposed in view of PSNR and results are
contrasted and existing spatial space and wavelet based de-noising separating strategies. The proposed
calculation gives improved visual clarity to diagnosing the restorative pictures. The proposed strategy in
view of GA surveys the better execution on the premise of the quantitative metric i.e PSNR (Peak Signal
to Noise-Ratio) and visual impacts. Reenactment results demonstrate that the GA based proposed
technique beats the current de-noising separating strategies.

tonsils test images. The proposed system was successful in
detecting the presence of Tonsillitis from the diseased tonsils
image. The complete system was then synthesized and
implemented on FPGA Artix 7. The design was capable of
operating at a maximum frequency of 394.563 MHz.

IMPROVEMENT OF BM3D ALGORITHM AND EMPLOYMENT TO SATELLITE AND CFA IMAGES DENO...ijistjournal
This paper proposes a new procedure in order to improve the performance of block matching and 3-D filtering (BM3D) image denoising algorithm. It is demonstrated that it is possible to achieve a better performance than that of BM3D algorithm in a variety of noise levels. This method changes BM3D algorithm parameter values according to noise level, removes prefiltering, which is used in high noise level; therefore Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and visual quality get improved, and BM3D complexities and processing time are reduced. This improved BM3D algorithm is extended and used to denoise satellite and color filter array (CFA) images. Output results show that the performance has upgraded in comparison with current methods of denoising satellite and CFA images. In this regard this algorithm is compared with Adaptive PCA algorithm, that has led to superior performance for denoising CFA images, on the subject of PSNR and visual quality. Also the processing time has decreased significantly.

The objective of this paper is to present the hybrid approach for edge detection. Under this technique, edge
detection is performed in two phase. In first phase, Canny Algorithm is applied for image smoothing and in
second phase neural network is to detecting actual edges. Neural network is a wonderful tool for edge
detection. As it is a non-linear network with built-in thresholding capability. Neural Network can be trained
with back propagation technique using few training patterns but the most important and difficult part is to
identify the correct and proper training set.
Image De-noising and Enhancement for Salt and Pepper Noise using Genetic Algo...IDES Editor
Image Enhancement through De-noising is one of
the most important applications of Digital Image Processing
and is still a challenging problem. Images are often received
in defective conditions due to usage of Poor image sensors,
poor data acquisition process and transmission errors etc.,
which creates problems for the subsequent process to
understand such images. The proposed Genetic filter is capable
of removing noise while preserving the fine details, as well as
structural image content. It can be divided into: (i) de-noising
filtering, and (ii) enhancement filtering. Image Denoising
and enhancement are essential part of any image processing
system, whether the processed information is utilized for visual
interpretation or for automatic analysis. The Experimental
results performed on a set of standard test images for a wide
range of noise corruption levels shows that the proposed filter
outperforms standard procedures for salt and pepper removal
both visually and in terms of performance measures such as
PSNR.Genetic algorithms will definitely helpful in solving
various complex image processing tasks in the future.

Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
