A novel area measurement scheme based on a multi-resolution dynamic contour

A novel scheme for an object's surface area measurement is proposed, which is suitable for area computation of an object with smooth and irregular edges. A multi-resolution dynamic contour is applied and this scheme consists of four steps. Firstly, a photoelectric image collimation system is applied to obtain a target image of a detected object. An image pyramid for the target image is constructed by wavelet decomposition and reconstruction. Secondly, in the image pyramid, a multi-resolution dynamic contour converges to the target's contour edge from coarse to fine scale, via feature search and an iteration algorithm. Thirdly, for the convergent dynamic contour, two formulas for the area and centroid computation of a closed B-spline curve are applied to compute the image target's area and centroid exactly. Finally, a novel centroid self-calibration technology is applied, which measures the pixel's size equivalence with the computed centroid and a dual-frequency laser to measure the true object's surface area exactly. Experiments indicate that this scheme's single-measurement error decreases to ±0.2%, when the number of control points is 20. Compared to conventional measurement approaches, this scheme is robust for a target image with noises or complicated edges.

Two-scale image fusion of visible and infrared images using saliency detection

Military, navigation and concealed weapon detection need different imaging modalities such as visible and infrared to monitor a targeted scene. These modalities provide complementary information. For better situation awareness, complementary information of these images has to be integrated into a single image. Image fusion is the process of integrating complementary source information into a composite image. In this paper, we propose a new image fusion method based on saliency detection and two-scale image decomposition. This method is beneficial because the visual saliency extraction process introduced in this paper can highlight the saliency information of source images very well. A new weight map construction process based on visual saliency is proposed. This process is able to integrate the visually significant information of source images into the fused image. In contrast to most of the multi-scale image fusion techniques, proposed technique uses only two-scale image decomposition. So it is fast and efficient. Our method is tested on several image pairs and is evaluated qualitatively by visual inspection and quantitatively using objective fusion metrics. Outcomes of the proposed method are compared with the state-of-art multi-scale fusion techniques. Results reveal that the proposed method performance is comparable or superior to the existing methods.     

Multi-focus image fusion based on robust principal component analysis and pulse-coupled neural network

Multi-focus image fusion combines multiple source images with different focus points into one image, so that the resulting image appears all in-focus. In order to improve the accuracy of focused region detection and fusion quality, a novel multi-focus image fusion scheme based on robust principal component analysis (RPCA) and pulse-coupled neural network (PCNN) is proposed. In this method, registered source images are decomposed into principal component matrices and sparse matrices with RPCA decomposition. The local sparse features computed from the sparse matrix construct a composite feature space to represent the important information from the source images, which become inputs to PCNN to motivate the PCNN neurons. The focused regions of the source images are detected by the firing maps of PCNN and are integrated to construct the final, fused image. Experimental results demonstrate that the superiority of the proposed scheme over existing methods and highlight the expediency and suitability of the proposed method.
