基于梯形与正弦相移算法的非线性误差校正北大核心CSCD

相移轮廓术是一种广泛使用的光学三维测量方法,其精度不仅受相位展开算法本身的影响,也受测量系统中投影仪和摄像机的非线性影响。理论上,投射更多的相移条纹可减弱非线性误差的影响,但是增加了测量时间。为了提高误差校正的效率,提出了一种基于梯形正弦相移的测量方法。该方法需要两组改进的梯形相移条纹和一幅正弦条纹。梯形条纹提供图像强度信息和条纹级次信息,图像强度信息用来求取系统的非线性响应曲线,进一步消除系统的非线性。正弦条纹经过希尔伯特变换可求得额外的条纹图像,用来计算截断相位信息。经过校正的截断相位信息,可进一步获取精度较高的三维信息。相较于先前的梯形与正弦误差校正方法,该方法的测量效率提高了28%。

Quadric surface projection model for fish-eye cameras

The curved surface projection model in fisheye image correction algorithm is presented. To analyze the causes of distortion in existing models, we establish an ideal surface projection model and compare its surface with the surfaces of existing models. Subsequently, feature points are obtained on the ideal surface according to the relationship of coordinates of fish-eye image points and their ideal three-dimentional (3D) points. Finally, the least square method is used to obtain a quadric surface and presents a quadric surface projection model. The experiment shows that the corrected image of the new model is more similar to the actual scene than the corrected images of previous models.     

New color correction method for multi-view video using disparity vector information

Color inconsistency is an urgent problem to be solved in free viewpoint television. In this letter, a new color correction method is proposed by using disparity vector information. At first, we separate foreground and background from the scene with a method of mean-removed disparity estimation. Then the correction parameters are estimated by adopting linear fitting for foreground and background regions, respectively. Next, with expectation-maximization algorithm, we integrate correction parameters of foreground and background to get the final corrected image. Finally, video tracking technique is performed to correct multi-view video. Experimental results show that the proposed method is quite effective.

Estimation of mutual information objective function based on Fourier shift theorem: an application to eddy current distortion correction in diffusion tensor imaging

Diffusion tensor imaging requires correction of eddy current distortion in diffusion-weighted images. An effective retrospective correction approach is to transform a diffusion-weighted image to maximize the mutual information (MI) between the transformed diffusion-weighted image and the corresponding T2-weighted image. In the literature, either linear interpolation or partial volume interpolation is applied to estimate the MI objective function. However, these interpolation methods induce artifacts to the MI objective function, thus compromising correction results. In this work, the MI objective function is estimated based on interpolation using Fourier shift theorem. This method eliminates the artifacts incurred with the aforementioned interpolation methods. The algorithm is further improved by approximating pixel values using their nearest neighbors in the up-sampled spatial domain, resulting in dramatically increased computational efficiency without compromising the correction results. The effects of varying the number of quantization levels and using Parzen window filtering to smooth the MI objective function are also investigated to obtain optimized algorithm parameters. The diffusion tensor image quality after applying the proposed distortion correction method is significantly improved visually.     

Nonuniformity correction algorithm with nonlinear model for infrared focal plane arrays

For the detector in infrared focal plane arrays (IRFPA) with a large dynamic range of response, a nonlinear model of response curve of the detector in IRFPA is introduced in this paper. With the model, the Kalman-filter nonuniformity correction (NUC) algorithm with linear model, developed by Torres and Hayat, is extended. In the extended algorithm, the raw image is translated into a linearized one firstly by directly employing a logarithm-based transformation. Then the linearized image is corrected by the Kalman-filter NUC algorithm with linear model, and the corrected linearized image is obtained. Finally the uniformity image of the original one is achieved by fulfilling an exponent transformation to the corrected linearized image. The presented algorithm not only inherits the advantage of the original algorithm that resolves the problem of the temporal drift in the gain and the bias in each detector by updating NUC parameters with information of the current scene, but also reduce the influence of the detector nonlinear response to the NUC performance, so it is suitable for IRFPA under large response-range. The NUC ability of the presented algorithm is demonstrated by experiments with real infrared image sequences.     

Single image non-uniformity correction using compressive sensing

A non-uniformity correction (NUC) method for an infrared focal plane array imaging system was proposed. The algorithm, based on compressive sensing (CS) of single image, overcame the disadvantages of “ghost artifacts” and bulk calculating costs in traditional NUC algorithms. A point-sampling matrix was designed to validate the measurements of CS on the time domain. The measurements were corrected using the midway infrared equalization algorithm, and the missing pixels were solved with the regularized orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm. Experimental results showed that the proposed method can reconstruct the entire image with only 25% pixels. A small difference was found between the correction results using 100% pixels and the reconstruction results using 40% pixels. Evaluation of the proposed method on the basis of the root-mean-square error, peak signal-to-noise ratio, and roughness index (ρ) proved the method to be robust and highly applicable.
