Video sensors constitute a great innovation in the automotive sector and road safety as they contribute to the development of driver assistance systems. These video systems use imageprocessing techniques to inform drivers of impending dangers. One such development is the Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) which play a key role in the prevention from accidents. The main function of this system is the detection of lane boundary lines using artificial vision. In this paper, we present a feature-based method for lane detection. We simplify the process of edge detection by using a horizontal differencing filter. The detected edge points are grouped into lines with a modified Hough transform.

imageprocessing and analysis is a useful tool for monitoring of activated sludge wastewater treatment plants. However, its effectiveness is dependent on performance of the segmentation algorithms. The activated sludge wastewater plant can be monitored by imageprocessing and analysis of images acquired through microscope using bright field microscopy and phase contrast microscopy. In this paper, we have investigated three segmentation algorithms which are channel based segmentation, edge based segmentation and Bradley based segmentation. The performance of the algorithms is assessed using the performance metric of accuracy. Forty gold approximations of ground truth images are manually prepared for comparing with the result for segmentation. Half of the forty images are acquired at lOx and rest at 20x objective magnification of the microscope. Edge based segmentation gives better results compared to other algorithms with accuracy of 0.972.

In multiview systems, color plus depth format builds 3D representations of scenes within which the users can freely navigate by changing their viewpoints. In this paper we present a framework for view synthesis when the user requests an arbitrary viewpoint that is closer to the 3D scene than the reference image. On the target image plane, the requested view obtained via depth-image-based-rendering (DIBR) is irregularly structured and has missing information due to the expansion of objects. We propose a novel framework that adopts a graph-based representation of the target view in order to interpolate the missing image pixels under sparsity priors. More specifically, we impose that the target image is reconstructed with a few atoms of a graph-based dictionary. Experimental results show that the reconstructed views have better PSNR and MSSIM quality than the ones generated within the same framework with analytical dictionaries, and are comparable to the ones reconstructed with TV regularization and linear interpolation on graphs. Visual results, however, show that our method better preserves the details and results in fewer disturbing artifacts than the other interpolation methods.

Multi-beam scanning electron microscopy (MBSEM), has been developed to reduce the acquisition time by scanning multiple pixels simultaneously. The signal from the 14 x 14 beams is captured on a camera which reads out the position and intensity for each beam on the sample. But as we work with multiple beams and pixels we need a powerful technique for image acquisition and imageprocessingalgorithms. We use Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA's), often used as an implementation platform for real time image acquisition and processing applications, because their structure is able to exploit spatial and temporal parallelism. This paper presents a technique for dealing with the various constraints of the camera and efficient mapping for image acquisition and processing operations on FPGA.

Currently, robots are increasingly being used in every industry. One of the most high-tech areas is creation of completely autonomous robotic devices including vehicles. The results of various global research prove the efficiency of vision systems in autonomous robotic devices. However, the use of these systems is limited because of the computational and energy resources available in the robot device. The paper describes the results of applying the original approach for imageprocessing on reconfigurable computing environments by the example of morphological operations over grayscale images. This approach is prospective for realizing complex imageprocessingalgorithms and real-time image analysis in autonomous robotic devices.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most serious complications associated with chronic diabetes. High levels of sugar in blood results in long term damage of many vital organs like eyes. If untreated, diabetic retinopathy may even lead to partial or complete vision loss. With the advent of machine learning techniques in the field of imageprocessing, the severity of DR can now be estimated from eye fundus images which aids in timely appropriate treatment of the disease. In this paper we have compared the performance of different machine learning algorithms namely decision trees (bagged trees and boosted trees), weighted k-nearest neighbor (KNN), subspace discriminant analysis, and support vector machine (SVM) for the classification of eye fundus images into two classes. We have implemented binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO) to generate a reduced feature set on which we have applied our classification algorithms.

Compressed sensing can represent the sparse signal with a small number of measurements compared to Nyquistrate samples. Considering the high-complexity of reconstruction algorithms in CS, recently compressive detection is proposed, which performs detection directly in compressive domain without reconstruction. Different from existing work that generally considers the measurements corrupted by dense noises, this paper studies the compressive detection problem when the measurements are corrupted by both dense noises and sparse errors. The sparse errors exist in many practical systems, such as the ones affected by impulse noise or narrowband interference. We derive the theoretical performance of compressive detection when the sparse error is either deterministic or random. The theoretical results are further verified by simulations.

In the Amazon rainforest, fluvial monitoring involves various challenges, including an exhaustive surveillance due to its large territory and due to the fact that the largest river basin in the world is in this region. To cope with this problem, we propose a method focused on detecting the movement of boats in typical scenes of the Amazonian rivers. We employ digital imageprocessing techniques to detect moving objects in the scene, while machine learning algorithms are used to indicate whether or not the detected object is a boat. Experiment results show that the proposed method achieves 79% of accuracy and 91% of precision rates when all images are considered, as well as a 71% of precision rate when only scenes with boats are analyzed.

Since the transmission of the uncompressed image in the context of wireless visual sensor networks (WVSNs) consumes less energy than transmitting the compressed image, developing energy-aware compression algorithms are mandatory to extend the camera node's lifetime and thereby the whole network lifetime. The present paper studies a low-complexity image compression algorithm in the context of WVSNs. This algorithm consists of applying a pruning approach on a DCT approximation transform. The scheme is investigated in terms of computation cycles, processing time, energy consumption and image quality. Experimental works are conducted using the Atmel Atmega128 processor of Mica2 and MicaZ sensor boards. Simulation results show that the studied scheme can exhibit a competitive performance when compared against other algorithms. Furthermore, the scheme can achieve the best tradeoff between energy consumption and image quality.
