Histogram equalization is an effective technique to boost image quality and contrast
enhancement. However, in some cases the increase in image contrast by traditional …

In this paper, we propose Unbiased Weighted Mean Filter (UWMF) for removing high-
density impulse noise. Asymmetric distribution of corrupted pixels in the filtering window …

Decomposing an image into structure and texture is an important procedure for image
understanding and analysis. Structure retains object hues and sharp edges whilst texture …

Outdoor images captured in bad weather are prone to yield poor visibility, which is a fatal
problem for most computer vision applications. The majority of existing dehazing methods …

Previous approaches to background subtraction in freely moving camera typically focus on
improving the accuracy of motion estimation. In this paper, we propose that the accurate …

Computer vision methods have raised great interest in the manufacture of printed circuit
boards (PCBs). The detection and localization of circular holes on PCBs are very important …

Visual object tracking is an essential technique for constructing intelligent livestock
management systems. Behavior patterns estimated from the trajectories of animals provide …

This work studies a digital hardware implementation of a radial basis function neural
network (RBF NN) Firstly, the architecture of the RBF NN, which consists of an input layer, a …

Wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) are capable of retrieving audio, image and
video data in addition to scalar sensor data. The lifetime of these networks is mainly …

Improving image resolution by refining hardware is usually expensive and/or time
consuming. A critical challenge is to optimally balance the trade-off among image resolution …
