多通道图像EMD及应用

针对现有的经验模态分解方法（Empirical Mode Decomposition,EMD）对多通道图像（如彩色图像）进行分解时通常忽略各通道图像之间相关性的问题,提出了一种多通道图像EMD方法。该方法采用双拉普拉斯算子插值得到图像上下包络,并建立一个整体筛分停止准则进行筛分来考虑各通道图像相关性,能够将多通道图像自适应分解为数目不多的内蕴模态函数（Intrinsic Mode Function,IMF）分量和一个余量,其中内蕴模态函数分量体现了原始图像不同尺度的特征信息,余量体现了图像的整体变化趋势。该方法可以应用在图像锐化、夜景图像增强等图像分析和处理领域。实验结果显示该方法能够取得较好的效果。     

Improved Geometric Anisotropic Diffusion Filter for Radiography Image Enhancement

In radiography imaging, contrast, sharpness and noise there are three fundamental factors that determine the image quality. Removing noise while preserving and sharpening image contours is a complicated task particularly for images with low contrast like radiography. This paper proposes a new anisotropic diffusion method for radiography image enhancement. The proposed method is based on the integration of geometric parameters derived from the local pixel intensity distribution in a nonlinear diffusion formulation that can concurrently perform the smoothing and the sharpening operations. The main novelty of the proposed anisotropic diffusion model is the ability to combine in one process noise reduction, edge preserving and sharpening. Experimental results using both synthetic and real welding radiography images prove the efficiency of the proposed method in comparison with other anisotropic diffusion methods.     

Geometric Heat Equation and Nonlinear Diffusion of Shapes and Images

Visual tasks often require a hierarchical representation of shapes and images in scales ranging from coarse to fine. A variety of linear and nonlinear smoothing techniques, such as Gaussian smoothing, anisotropic diffusion, regularization, etc., have been proposed, leading to scalespace representations. We propose ageometricsmoothing method based on local curvature for shapes and images. The deformation by curvature, or the geometric heat equation, is a special case of thereaction–diffusionframework proposed in [41]. For shapes, the approach is analogous to the classical heat equation smoothing, but with a renormalization by arc-length at each infinitesimal step. For images, the smoothing is similar to anisotropic diffusion in that, since the component of diffusion in the direction of the brightness gradient is nil, edge location is left intact. Curvature deformation smoothing for shape has a number of desirable properties: it preserves inclusion order, annihilates extrema and inflection points without creating new ones, decreases total curvature, satisfies the semigroup property allowing for local iterative computations, etc. Curvature deformation smoothing of an image is based on viewing it as a collection of iso-intensity level sets, each of which is smoothed by curvature. The reassembly of these smoothed level sets into a smoothed image follows a number of mathematical properties; it is shown that the extension from smoothing shapes to smoothing images is mathematically sound due to a number of recent results [21]. A generalization of these results [14] justifies the extension of the entireentropy scale spacefor shapes [42] to one for images, where each iso-intensity level curve is deformed by a combination of constant and curvature deformation. The scheme has been implemented and is illustrated for several medical, aerial, and range images.     

利用总变分最小化方法的无监督纹理图像分割

纹理图像的分割是图像处理领域中的一个典型难题。不同于传统的提取纹理特征量进行纹理分割的方法，本文将图像复原和重建中的总变分最小化方法和活动围道分割方法相结合，提出了一种简单的线性纹理模型。利用总变分最小化方法在保持图像大尺度棱边信息的基础上对纹理体现的局部小尺度周期性灰度振动细节进行平滑得到简化的图像原型。对其进行分割获得不同纹理区域之间的低定位精度的边界围道，再利用原始图像对围道进行高精度细化。在总变分最小化导致的非线性扩散方程求解过程中，运用AOS(additive operatorr splitting)数值算法以改进算法效率。实验结果表明，该方法能很快提取出纹理图像的简化图像，同时是一种无监督的纹理分割方法。

Mathematical Modeling of Textures: Application to Color Image Decomposition with a Projected Gradient Algorithm

In this paper, we are interested in texture modeling with functional analysis spaces. We focus on the case of color image processing, and in particular color image decomposition. The problem of image decomposition consists in splitting an original image f into two components u and v. u should contain the geometric information of the original image, while v should be made of the oscillating patterns of f, such as textures. We propose here a scheme based on a projected gradient algorithm to compute the solution of various decomposition models for color images or vector-valued images. We provide a direct convergence proof of the scheme, and we give some analysis on color texture modeling.     

A Metric Approach to nD Images Edge Detection with Clifford Algebras

The aim of this paper is to perform edge detection in color-infrared images from the point of view of Clifford algebras. The main idea is that such an image can be seen as a section of a Clifford bundle associated to the RGBT-space (Red, Green, Blue, Temperature) of acquisition. Dealing with geometric calculus and covariant derivatives of appropriate sections with respect to well-chosen connections allows to get various color and temperature information needed for the segmentation. We show in particular how to recover the first fundamental form of the image embedded in a LSHT-space (Luminance, Saturation, Hue, Temperature) equipped with a metric tensor. We propose applications to color edge detection with some constraints on colors and to edge detection in color-infrared images with constraints on both colors and temperature. Other applications related to different choices of connections, sections and embedding spaces for nD images may be considered from this general theoretical framework.
