The objective of fusing differently exposed images is to well represent the luminance information of the scene in a single image. In order to fuse multi exposure images, it is necessary to determine overexposed or und...

In this paper, we propose a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based no-reference image quality assessment (NR-IQA). Though deep learning has yielded superior performance in a number of computervision studies, applying the deep CNN to the NR-IQA framework is not straightforward, since we face a few critical problems: 1) lack of training data;2) absence of local ground truth targets. To alleviate these problems, we employ the full-reference image quality assessment (FR-IQA) metrics as intermediate training targets of the CNN. In addition, we incorporate the pooling stage in the training stage, so that the whole parameters of the model can be optimized in an end-to-end framework. The proposed model, named as a blind image evaluator based on a convolutional neural network (BIECON), achieves state-of-the-art prediction accuracy that is comparable with that of FR-IQA methods.

An extensive air shower can be observed as a bright spot moving through the field of view of an orbital fluorescence detector. A challenging part of the air shower recognition is segmentation of its track. The issues arise from a low signal to noise ratio. This paper provides a short review of selected low-level computervision techniques such as filtering and thresholding methods, which are for a demonstration applied to a composite simulated air shower image. The article should provide a shortlist of algorithms that can be applied as a part of more complex event classification or reconstruction procedure.

Recent progress on photometric stereo extends the technique to deal with general materials and unknown illumination conditions. However, due to the lack of suitable benchmark data with ground truth shapes (normals), quantitative comparison and evaluation is difficult to achieve. In this paper, we first survey and categorize existing methods using a photometric stereo taxonomy emphasizing on non-Lambertian and uncalibrated methods. We then introduce the 'DiLiGenT' photometric stereo image dataset with calibrated Directional Lightings, objects of General reflectance, and 'ground Truth' shapes (normals). Based on our dataset, we quantitatively evaluate state-of-the-art photometric stereo methods for general non-Lambertian materials and unknown lightings to analyze their strengths and limitations.
In this paper, we propose a novel ellipse detection approach that eliminates false detection-based parameter space decomposition, principal of symmetric tangents, and a novel geometric constraint utilizing properties ...

An Omega-3 chicken egg is a chicken egg produced through food engineering technology. It is produced by hen fed with high omega-3 fatty acids. So, it has fifteen times nutrient content of omega-3 higher than Leghorn's. Visually, its shell has the same shape and colour as Leghorn's. Each egg can be distinguished by breaking the egg's shell and testing the egg yolk's nutrient content in a laboratory. But, those methods were proven not effective and efficient. Observing this problem, the purpose of this research is to make an application to detect the type of omega-3 chicken egg by using a mobile-based computervision. This application was built in OpenCV computervision library to support Android Operating System. This experiment required some chicken egg images taken using an egg candling box. We used 60 omega-3 chicken and Leghorn eggs as samples. Then, using an Android smartphone, image acquisition of the egg was obtained. After that, we applied several steps using imageprocessing methods such as Grab Cut, convert RGB image to eight bit grayscale, median filter, P-Tile segmentation, and morphology technique in this research. The next steps were feature extraction which was used to extract feature values via mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis from each image. Finally, using digital image measurement, some chicken egg images were classified. The result showed that omega-3 chicken egg and Leghorn egg had different values. This system is able to provide accurate reading around of 91%.

This paper deals with leaf rot disease detection for betel vine (Piper betel L.) based on imageprocessing algorithm. The measurement of plant features is a fundamental element of plant science research and related applications. The information related to plant features is especially useful for its applications in plant growth modeling, agricultural research and on farm production. Few methods have been applied in leaf rot disease detection for betel vine leaf (Piper Betel L.). Traditional direct measurement methods are generally simple and reliable, but they are time consuming, laborious and cumbersome. In contrast, the proposed vision-based methods are efficient in detecting and observing the exterior disease features. In the present investigation, imageprocessing algorithms are developed to detect leaf rot disease by identifying the color featureof the rotted leaf area. Subsequently, the rotted area was segmented and area of rotted leaf portion was deduced from the observed plant feature data. The results showed a promising performance of this automatic vision-based system in practice with easy validation. This paper describes the steps to achieve an efficient and inexpensive system acceptable to the farmers and agricultural researchers as well for studying leaf rot disease in betel vine leaf.
