The Mojette transform has found several applications to this date. Some of them, such as systems for distributed file storage, or digital tomography systems exploit one of the main properties of Mojette transform - redundancy. However, sometimes this feature is not desirable. This is a case of applying Mojette transform for image encoding, or decoding. In these applications, higher rate of redundancy can cause longer processing times and bigger size of image data. These problems can be solved by group of procedures, which would work in a determined manner. In this article, we tried to propose a set of algorithms, which would reduce the drawbacks of Mojette transform, but exploit its advantages in the field of image coding.

Global warming induced drastic climate changes have increased the frequency of natural disasters such as flooding, worldwide. Flooding is a constant threat to humanity and reliable systems for flood monitoring and analysis need to be developed. Flood hazard assessment needs to take into account physical characteristics such as flood depth, flow velocity and the duration of flooding. This paper provides the researchers with a detailed compilation of the methods that can be used for the estimation of flood water depth. A comparative study has been done between the water depth estimation techniques based on imageprocessing and those which does not involve imageprocessing. The comparison is based on various attributes such as implementation methods, advantages, accuracy and cost. imageprocessing methods are classified based on various algorithms such as character recognition, feature extraction, region of interest (ROI), FIR filter etc. Similarly, non-imageprocessing methods are classified based on hardware used such as sensors, level indicators, etc., and other signal based techniques. This study can be used to identify the best method for flood water depth estimation.

This paper presents the application program of fingerprint detection using wavelet transform for authentication. Fingerprints are obtained from the site of crime, old documents and excavated things. This paper proposes a fingerprint recognition technique based on wavelet-based texture pattern recognition method. By collecting incomplete fingerprints of 2 people with 6 images each. The original seven of uncompleted fingerprint images were undetected and only one was detected. After enhancing image quality using wavelet transform method, it was found that those of seven images were completed. The comparison method was a matching technique. This work focuses on the ability of the program and knowledge of imageprocessing by studying algorithms of imageprocessing. In design algorithm process, different technique enhancements were employed as well as the study of different of filters and algorithms based on existing research results from literature.

Clouds can obscure ground information during remote sensing imaging. Cloud removal technology for a single image becomes significant when no images containing cloud-free regions are available. After the fundamental principle of dual tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT) was reviewed, and the frequency relationships between clouds and ground objects in remote sensing images were analyzed, a novel algorithm to remove clouds from a single remote sensing image was proposed. The algorithm divided the cloud-contaminated image into low level high frequency sub-bands, high level high frequency sub-bands and low frequency sub-band by DTCWT. The low level high frequency sub-bands were filtered to enhance the ground object information by Laplacian filtering. The other two types of sub-bands were processed to remove cloud by applying the method of cloud layer coefficient weighting (CLCW). imageprocessing experiments were implemented. Their results were analyzed. It proved the Laplacian contributes to enhancing ground object information adaptively. CLCW has the ability to remove clouds while preserving the ground object information outside the cloud cover. The proposed algorithm is greatly superior to algorithms based on traditional wavelet transform and the wavelet threshold theory.

In the early years of college, students have the need to learn how to program in any programming language. It is important to see the differences between programming languages and their rules. We are proposing an interactive and self-study system for students to acquire the knowledge they need, from data structures to algorithms using multiple programming languages. The system gives the students some exercises that outputs an image. The student's image will be compared with the correct image that is in the system and the system judges the student's image will is correct or not. The students will program the exercises in the selected programming languages. Eventually the system will help students learn multiple programming languages, especially, how to solve problems regardless of programming language.

Increasing spatial resolution is often required in many applications such as entertainment systems or video surveillance. Apart from using higher resolution sensors, it is also possible to apply super-resolution algorithms to realize an increased resolution. Those methods can be divided into approaches that rely on only a single low resolution image or on multiple low resolution video frames. While incorporating more frames into the super-resolution is beneficial for the resolution enhancement in principle, it is also likely to introduce more artifacts from inaccurate motion estimation. To alleviate this problem, various weightings have been proposed in the literature. In this paper, we propose an extended dual weighting scheme for an interpolation-based super-resolution method based on Voronoi tessellation that relies on both a motion confidence weight and a distance weight. Compared to non-weighted super-resolution, the proposed method yields an average gain in luminance PSNR of up to 1.29 dB and 0.61 dB for upscaling factors of 2 and 4, respectively. Visual comparisons substantiate the objective results.

In this research, a matrix notation method to extract discrete orthogonal Racah moments is proposed to reduce the computation time. To verify this new computational method, the image reconstructions from higher orders of Racah moments are performed. Our experimental results show that the Racah moments computing time has been reduced tremendously, while the testing image can be reconstructed completely by Racah moments of orders up to 510 without any error.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most frequent complication of diabetes mellitus that affects vision to the point of causing blindness. In advanced stages its progress can be delayed with laser photocoagulation which leaves behind marks on the retina. Modern screening programs rely on automatic diagnostic algorithms to detect signs of DR in patients. These systems performance may be impaired when patient retina presents marks from previous laser photocoagulation treatments. Since these patients are already being treated, it is desirable to detect and remove them from the screening program. An algorithm that automatically detects the presence of laser marks in retinal images using tree-based classifiers is proposed and the results on its performance are obtained and described. Two new public accessible datasets containing retinal images with laser marks are provided in this paper.

This work presents a Tone Mapping Operator (TMO) which adjusts the High Dynamic Range (HDR) of image sensor data to the limited dynamic range of conventional displays with analog signal processing. It is based on Photographic Tone Reproduction (PTR) and suitable for analog circuit design in a CMOS image sensor in order to reduce the hardware cost and operation time for real-time imageprocessing. For this reason, the characteristic advantage and calculation limitation of analog technology are considered in the TMO algorithm proposal. Furthermore, the appropriate modelling is built and simulated in Verilog-A. The function of the algorithm is feasible for analog processing. The frequency of the analog TMO is upper 52MHz while it consumes 55mW. The simulation results of test images are compared with the digital global TMO and the proposed analog TMO provides a reasonable similar dynamic range compression.

Automatic snore detection system based on ARM processor has been designed in our work that only uses single microphone recording snore sound. It can assist a noninvasive and portable diagnosis for sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) based on digital signal processing. The 32-bit microcontroller STM32F407 is selected as main hardware of embedded system. To make full use of the ARM resources, SAHS snore diagnosis task is decomposed into several steps with different priority. Real-time screening of snore is implemented based on recording of nocturnal snore sound. Meanwhile the SAHS snore and simple snore are discriminated by the Earth mover's distance (EMD) algorithm which is online completed. Therefore, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI: the average number of apneic events per hour of sleep) is calculated and screening result is obtained.
