Greenhouses are proliferating across Canada. Greenhouse crop production requires considerable attention. The only way to maintain the production growth is by controlling the greenhouse atmosphere and monitoring the plants so that they remain healthy in the greenhouse. In this paper, we utilize a Wireless visual Sensor Network (WVSN) with machine learning and imageprocessing to observe any deficiency, pest, or disease presenting on the leaves of the plants. We distribute camera sensors throughout the greenhouse. Each camera sensor node captures an image from inside the greenhouse and use machine learning and imageprocessing techniques to detect the presence of fungus. When a fungus is detected, the camera sensor node sends a message to the sensor node via the wireless sensor network to measure the humidity and then send a message to the actuator to re-set accordingly. This paper demonstrates how Hough forest machine learning and imageprocessing can he successful in detecting fungus present on crop plant leaves from the images taken from camera sensors in the greenhouse. Cross-validation was applied to measure the performance of the system. The results are highly promising. There was a 94% success rate in detecting the fungus.

Near infrared (NIR) images are robust to ambient light and contain clear textures in low light condition. In this paper, we propose NIR image colorization using spatial adaptive denormalization (SPADE) generator and grayscale approximated self-reconstruction. Compared with traditional image to image translation methods, the proposed NIR colorization pursues photorealism rather than generative diversity. The challenge of this task is NIR-RGB mis-registration in training data. We address this problem by separately extracting NIR texture and RGB color with an end to end SPADE based model. Moreover, the proposed method facilitates a more precise synthesis with a given low light RGB reference image. Experiments on an open NIR-RGB dataset verify that the proposed method effectively preserves NIR textures and RGB colors in the synthesized results and outperforms the baselines in terms of visual quality and quantitative assessments.
Semantic image synthesis via text description is a desirable and challenging task, which requires more protection of the text irrelevant content in the original image. Existing methods directly modify the original ima...

There are plenty of geometrical multiresolution transforms devoted to efficient edge representation. However, they have two drawbacks. The first one is that such transforms represent mono edge models. And the second one is that they are often based on approximations which are optimal according to the Mean Square Error what does not necessarily lead to optimal edge approximation. In this paper the multibeamlet transform based on the Hough transform is proposed. This transform is defined to properly detect multiedges present in images. Next, the method of image approximation with the use of the multibeamlet transform is described. Additionally, the modified bottom-up tree pruning algorithm is presented in order to properly approximate images with the use of multibeamlets. As follows from the performed experiments, this approach leads to image approximations with better quality than the state-of-the-art geometrical multiresolution transforms.

In this work, an efficient and robust learning-based JPEG2000 architecture is proposed. It uses machine learning techniques for predicting and encoding the decision bit in the embedded block coding with optimized truncation (EBCOT) process. First, we apply non-locally weighted ridge regression to predict the quantized wavelet coefficients in the LL subband. Then, during the EBCOT process, we perform inter/intra subband prediction and inter/intra bit plane symbol prediction to estimate the activity of the decision bit using the deep learning architecture. Then, the binary prediction result is treated as an additional context and the decision bit is eventually coded using an advanced context-based adaptive binary arithmetic coder. Simulations show that the proposed framework provides the same visual quality as conventional codecs with as much as 30% bitrate savings.

For most of the existing high dynamic range (HDR) deghosting flows, they require a time-consuming motion registration step to generate ghost-free HDR results. Since the motion registration step usually becomes the bottleneck of the entire flow, in this paper, we propose a novel H DR deghosting flow which does not require any motion registration process. By taking channel properties into account, the luminance and chrominance channels are fused differently in the proposed flow. Our motion-registration-free fusion could generate high-quality HDR results swiftly even if the original Low Dynamic Range (LDR) images contain objects with large foreground motions.
In traditional 2D image stitching, the baseline method usually means global homography via Direct Linear Transformation (DLT) on inliers. In this paper, a modified baseline method for light field (LF) stitching is pro...

The article describes the method of noise elimination is linear averaging over neighboring pixels in a spatial neighborhood. In this case, the arithmetic mean of its neighbors is used as the new value of the central pixel. The larger the window size, the stronger the averaging occurs. Linear averaging partially impairs the perception of the image and complicates its further analysis, since it blurs the contours of objects. Adaptive filters are used to preserve the contours of objects in the image, which can change the filter coefficients in accordance with the features of the processed image. Most adaptive filters are local (implement "windowing"). For each position of the sliding processing window, either the filter mask counts are recalculated or the window configuration is changed. The disadvantage of adaptive filters is that the synthesis of these filters requires precise knowledge of some static characteristics of signals and noise, which is difficult in conditions of uncertainty in the field of application of video sensor-based computing devices.
