Nonsubsampled contourlet transform: construction and application in enhancement
We present the nonsubsampled contourlet transform and its application in image enhancement. The nonsubsampled contourlet transform is built upon nonsubsampled pyramids and nonsubs...

Curvature and Singularity Driven Diffusion for Oriented Pattern Enhancement with Singular Points
Oriented patterns, e.g. fingerprints, consist of smoothly varying flow-like patterns, together with important singular points (i.e. cores and deltas) where the orientation change...

Retinal Blood Vessel Extraction by Using Multi-resolution Matched Filtering and Directional Region Growing Segmentation
Anew method to extract retinal blood vessels from a colour fundus image is described. Digital colour h d u s images are contrast enhanced in order to obtain sharp edges. The green...

A Model-Based Approach for Compression of Fingerprint Images
We proposea new ngerprint imagecompressionscheme based on the hybrid model of image. Our scheme uses the essential steps of a typical automated ngerprint identi cation system (AFI...
