A novel method for open-close eye states detection, based on complex wavelet transform (CWT) and complex-valued artificial neural network (CVANN) is proposed in this study. Firstly, color information of images is used. Red images for eye are chosen as intensity image of color image. After getting the red image of seperately right and left eye, the color information is used to feature extraction with CWT. Features of eyes are extracted using CWT with 4th level and image size is reduced. After then, four statistical features (maximum value, minimum value, mean value and standard deviation) are obtained from extracted features. These new statistical features are presented to CVANN as inputs. image set including ten person images with open and close eye states is used in this study, CVANN detected eye states with % 6.7 numerical test error. Classification results shown that, one of ten images is misclassified for two states.

In this study brain MR images are segmented into the constitutive tissues such as the gray matter, white matter and cerebrospinal fluid using multiresolutional wavelet packet transform and self-organizing map networks. For this purpose T1-weighted, T2-weighted and PD-weighted simulated brain MR images are used. First of all, wavelet packet transform is applied to the images. Subimages obtained from the transform are filtered using best subtree method. Feature vector that is used as input to the neural network is constructed by combining the reconstructed images that are the result of the transform. As a consequence brain MR images are segmented into gray matter, white matter and cerebrospinal fluid using self-organizing map networks.

In this paper, we present a scheme for securing revocable iris templates using watermarking. A user specific shuffling key is used to shuffle blocks of the iris code to achieve revocability, as well as increase the separation between genuine and imposter Hamming distance distributions. 3-level DWT decomposition is used for the watermarking algorithm. Discrete wavelet Transform was chosen, for robustness, security and accuracy, to embed the shuffled iris code in a cover image. To test the proposed algorithm, recognition rates are calculated after several geometrical and frequency attacks, which shows acceptable performance rates, while ensuring revocability and security of the iris templates.

3D applications need a stereo matching algorithm that can merge the left image with the right image. In this paper we propose a stereo matching algorithm based on some binocular properties of the human visual system. For this, we have focused on the simple and complex cells properties that are responsible for binocular fusion. A model, based on a complex wavelet transform, a color contrast sensitivity function and a bandelet transform, is proposed to model the properties of the simple and complex cells characterized by their size, orientation, phase and amplitude. This model is designed to calculate the binocular energy generated by each binocular complex cell. A model refinement based on properties specific to the lateral geniculate body is then proposed to refine the results obtained with the binocular energy model calculation. The obtained results can be exploited by the stereoscopic vision applications, such as 3D reconstruction, stereoscopic coding, stereoscopic quality assessment and other applications.

A new algorithm based on chaos and Contourlet is presented in this paper for image encryption. Firstly, the image is decomposed with contourlet into several sub-bands. Three bands are selected to encrypt. At the same time, we divide the bands into non-covered blocks, respectively. Secondly, two natural chaotic sequences are created with the key. With one chaotic sequence, the encryption template used to adjust transform coefficients is made. Finally, after inverse contourlet transform, the image matrix is transformed to an encrypted image by Magic Cube Transformation. The decryption operation is the reverse process. The experimental results suggest that the algorithm proposed not only has good encryption ability, but also can withstand the attack of JPEG compression, the effects of noise and cropping to some extent.

In this paper, we propose a visual lossless compression scheme of mosaic image based on wavelet sub-band substitute. The proposed compression scheme consists of three coding pipelines: green component lossless coder, red component near-lossless coder and blue component near-lossless coder. Firstly, full resolution green image which is demosaiced from raw mosaic image is produced and green mosaic image is losslessly coded by LOCO-I scheme designed by Weinberger. Then low frequency sub-bands of red and blue mosaic component are also coded by LOCO-I while their high frequency sub-bands are ignored. In the decoder, the high frequency sub-bands of red and blue mosaic component are taken from the high frequency sub-bands of full resolution green image which locate at the same position as raw red or blue mosaic image, so we can reconstruct raw red or blue mosaic image based on decoded low frequency sub-bands of red and blue mosaic component. Consequently, we can encode mosaic images at low complexity level at higher compression ratio. Compared with JPEG2000, the performance of proposed method is apparently better.

In this work, we developed a technique for face recognition using the idea of multiresolution face recognition. The multiresolution subbands are generated by using discrete wavelet transform (DWT). We then apply scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) to extract the salient feature descriptors at each subband using the resulting low frequency subband of the image. The descriptors are used to perform the recognition of the faces in each subband with different resolutions. Then decisions coming from each subband are combined by using simple majority voting to increase the recognition performance. Proposed, multiresolution SIFT approach shows promising results and outperforms the conventional SIFT approaches.

Time-series data mining is a very important element of data mining. As a typical time-series data, video data has been widely used for many applications such as film, medical, sports and traffic areas. In this paper we integrates several technologies into the video moving object time-series data mining. We propose a similarity analysis and clustering algorithm for videos based on the moving trajectory time series data wavelet transform of the moving object in the videos. Utilizing the image difference technique, our algorithm detects the moving objects from the scene surveillance video, calculates the centroid of the moving object, and uses the centroid series to character the moving trajectory of the object. Then we use wavelet analysis method to achieve dimensionality reduction and get the first k wavelet coefficient to substitute the original motion time-serial data. Based on the Euclidean distance, we utilize two judgement rules to determine the similarity of time-serial data and cluster them, use the rules to perform the similarity search and clustering of video. We apply the algorithm to athletic sports videos analysis.

In this paper, a VLSI implementation of the lifting based Discrete wavelet Transform (DWT) is presented. The behavioral description of integer-to-integer CDF (2,2) lifting wavelet, which is used in image compression has been coded in Verilog Hardware Description Language (HDL). The code has been synthesized and then implemented using both Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) design approaches. Postsynthesis and post-layout simulations verify the appropriate operation of he architecture. The resulting hardware can be used in image eom pression applications such as JPEG2000.

The discrete wavelet transform has taken its place at the forefront of research for the development of signal and imageprocessingapplications. Hence this paper is proposed on the work of design of hardware for the computation of Floating Point Discrete wavelet Transform using Harr wavelet. The proposed hardware was implemented using VHDL and components were designed at the gate level. This resulted in an easier synthesizable design. The hardware was synthesized using Xilinx Virtex-4 device. This paper gives us an insight into the making of hardware for computation of DWT using a 32 bit Floating Point Unit. Since all the wavelets except Harr wavelet have their coefficients in floating point representation, a 32 bit FPU was incorporated into the proposed hardware. Typically, synthesis tools are not efficient in designing a memory and the proposed hardware was consisting of two 16K X 32 bit RAM's. Hence many problems had been faced and solved during the synthesis of this hardware.
