According to the characteristics of weld radiograph image, median filter is adopted to reduce the noise with high frequency, then relative gray-scale of image is chosen as fuzzy characteristic, and image gray-scale fuzzy matrix is constructed and suitable membership function is selected to describe edge characteristic. A fuzzy algorithm is adopted for enhancing radiograph image processing. Based on the intensity distribution characteristic in weld, methodology of weld extraction is then designed. This paper describes the methodology of all the weld extraction, including reducing noise, fuzzy enhancement and weld extraction process. To prove its effectiveness, this methodology was tested with 64 weld negative images available for this study. The experimental results show that this methodology is very effective for extracting linear weld.展开更多

It can provide fixed estimations by matching real-time depth data with a digital terrain map, This study presents the concept of using image processing techniques in the underwater terrain matching process. A traditional gray-scale histogram of an image is enriched by incorporation with spatial information in pixels. Edge comer pixels are then defined and used to construct an edge comer histogram, which employs as a template to scan the digital terrain map and estimate the fixes of the vehicle by searching the correlation peak. Simulations are performed to investigate the robustness of the proposed method, particularly in relation to its sensitivity to background noise, the scale of real-time images, and the travel direction of the vehicle. At an image resolution of 1 m2/pixel, the accuracy of localization is more than 10 meters.展开更多

Compared to the gray images, color images contain more information and have better visual effects. In today's digital image processing, image segmentation is an important section for computers to "understand" images and edge detection is always one of the most important methods in the field of image segmentation. Edges in color images are considered as local discontinuities both in color and spatial domains. Despite the intensive study based on integration of single-channel edge detection results, and on vector space analysis, edge detection in color images remains as a challenging issue.展开更多

One of the essential characters of remote sensing image is multidimensional or even high-dimensional, and the traditional texture conception cannot contain enough information for these. Therefore, it is necessary to pursuit a proper texture definition based on remote sensing images, which is the first discussion in this paper. This paper describes the mapping model of spectral vector in two-dimensional image space using Markov random field (MRF), establishes a texture model of multiband remote sensing image based on MRF, and analyzes the calculations of Gibbs potential energy and Gibbs parameters. Further, this paper also analyzes the limitations of the traditional Gibbs model, prefers a new Gibbs model avoiding estimation of parameters, and presents a new texture segmentation algorithm for hy-perspectral remote sensing image later.展开更多
