It has been demonstrated that Spotlight Mode Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Imaging falls into a band-limited tomographic reconstruction problem in far field and small rotation angle situation. So far, several methods, such as two-dimensional inverse FFT (2D IFFT) algorithm and convolution back-projection (CBP) algorithm, have been developed to solve this problem. The purpose of our work was to investigate another method based on vector optimization (VO). In this article, mathematical model and algorithm are presented first, and then experimental results are shown to ascertain the superiority of this method over conventional ones.

Virtual endoscopy is meaningful for medical diagnosis and surgery. In this paper, a system framework for virtual endoscopy is proposed including automatic centerline extraction and view-dependent level-of-detail rendering techniques. Combining Hessian Matrix with distance mapping, our path planning method can generate accurate skeleton for virtual navigation. Furthermore, real time rendering can be achieved with our new view-dependent subdivision algorithm. The experimental results show the efficiency of our methods.

Optical Flow computing don't require the rigorous corresponding relationship among features of sequential images, so this approach is widely used in computer vision field including detection and dynamic analysis of moving objects. But it is rarely used in infrared images because of the high noise levels of images. This article proposes a moving object pre-detection algorithm based on supervised learning, image pair difference significance test and minimum cost Bayes rule. This algorithm can not only efficiently be applied in indicating moving objects in infrared image sequences, but also in optical flow computing, and behavior analysis of the moving objects.

A hybrid method for image interpolation is proposed. The method consists three different approaches: Circular arc or B-spline interpolation, linear interpolation and human visual sensitivity based interpolation. The image can be divided into three regions: linear smooth region, sharp edge region and human visual insensitive region. The method uses local variance and mean value to find different regions adaptively. The linear interpolation is used for linear, smooth region. The human visual sensitivity based interpolation is used for human visual insensitive region and the circular arc or B-spline interpolation is used for sharp edge region. Experiments show that proposed method produces results that are more visually realistic than standard function-fitting methods.

This paper proposed a new stable algorithm based on feature point matching, which can be used in image registration under shift and rotation. The new method firstly extracts feature points in the first image of an image sequence and then searches matching points in the consecutive images. Different from conventional methods, it adopts constrain of distance to revise matching and removing false matching, and also adopts projection of pixel to filter feature points and choose many possible matching possible points for one reference feature point, which make it fast and reliable. Experiments prove this method is practical and reliable.

An algorithm to retrieve structure from long image sequence captured by a hand-held camera is proposed. Firstly, the long image sequence is divided into several subsets. Each subset has common feature points. Secondly, Euclidean reconstruction is obtained by factorization with all of these points visible in each image of a certain subset. Then results coming from different subset are brought into a common coordinate frame by the similarity transformations. Finally, global optimization is applied to refine the data and produce a jointly optimal 3D structure. A significant merit of the algorithm is that it can deal with the long image sequences with occlusions. The algorithm has been tested on real images with satisfactory results.

In this paper, we present a method in the context of pattern characterization. This method is based on the analysis of closed contours of planar objects. The input contour is, first, separated into its x and y coordinates to generate two 1D signals. Both signals are then progressively low-pass filtered with a Gaussian kernel by decreasing the filter bandwidth. The output signals X and Y are then scaled so that the reconstructed contour and the original one can intersect. By doing so, we generate the so called IPM (Intersection Points Map) function that yields interesting attributes for pattern characterisation. The experimental results obtained by applying this method to various contours show that the IPM function is strongly related to the input contour and is rotation and translation invariant. It is also invariant under scale change for a large range of scales. According to the experimental results, this function appears to be computationally very simple and to provide well-adapted features in the context of patternrecognition.

The Wavelet-Domain Projection Pursuit Learning Network (WDPPLN) is proposed for resolving the difficult task that restoring image, which is blurred by multisource degraded factors image. The new approach combines the advantages of both the projection pursuit and the wavelet shrinkage technique. By separately processing wavelet coefficients and scale coefficients, the WDPPLN resolves the problem of restoring image very well, when little or no a prior information about the degradation is available. The WDPPLN estimates the degraded factor, which blurred the image, using Projection Pursuit Learning Network (PPLN). Also, it suppresses the noise using the soft-threshold of the wavelet shrinkage technique. The new method is compared with the traditional methods and the PPLN method in visual effect and objective evaluation criterion. Experimental results show that it is an effective method for restoring multisource degraded image.

In allusion to the features of dynamic multi-target tracking and measuring system (DMTTMS), compares the DMTTMS with the single target tracking and measuring system (STTMS) and analyses the difficulties about homonymy image point ascertainment in DMTTMS. Three methods are presented based on the geometric peculiarity of rays in imaging principia of geometric optics to solve the problem of homonymy image point ascertainment. A design scheme of DMTTMS is put forward using multiple optical capture instruments. Further-more, an algorithm is emphasized that could treat with some targets that are hided by other targets. The simulating result shows that proposed scheme and algorithm has feasibility and validity for DMTTMS.

In this paper some properties of Foley-Sammon optimal discriminant vector(FSODV), by contrast with uncorrelated optimal discriminant vector(UODV), are discussed. Firstly the Fisher ratio of every FSODV must be not less than that of corresponding UODV and consequently sole FSODV will be Superior to corresponding UODV. Secondly the correlation between feature components extracted by FSODV is an important factor. If high correlation is available between most of the feature components, the classification performance of FSODV will be remarkably inferior to UODV. However, if most of the feature components are only little correlative to each other, FSODV is comparative to UODV in classification.
