Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel and fast method to localize and track needles during image-guided interventions. Our proposed method is comprised of framework of needle...
Non-uniform light distribution problems often arise in the text images taken by digital camera. In this paper, we propose a novel technique for text image uneven lighting removal ...
Abstract—Applications of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to solve image processing problem with a reference to a new automatic enhancement technique based on real-coded par...
For stationary or quasi-stationary frames of a video sequence, traditional block matching algorithms (BMA) will easily lead the search to be trapped into a local minimum. In this ...
This paper presents a novel perceptually based method for noise reduction of image signals characterized by low signal to noise ratios. The proposed method exploits the local phas...
