Compressed sensing has shown great potential in speeding up MR imaging by undersampling k-space data. Generally sparsity is used as a priori knowledge to improve the quality of reconstructed image. Compressed sensing MR image (CS-MRI) reconstruction methods have employed widely used sparsifying transforms such as wavelet or total variation, which are not preeminent in dealing with MR images containing distributed discontinuities and cannot provide a sufficient sparse representation and the decomposition at any direction. In this paper, we propose a novel CS-MRI reconstruction method from highly undersampled k-space data using nonsubsampled shearlet transform (NSST) sparsity prior. In particular, we have implemented a flexible decomposition with an arbitrary even number of directional subbands at each level using NSST for MR images. The highly directional sensitivity of NSST and its optimal approximation properties lead to improvement in CS-MRI reconstruction applications. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method results in the high quality reconstruction, which is highly effective at preserving the intrinsic anisotropic features of MRI meanwhile suppressing the artifacts and added noise. The objective evaluation indices outperform all compared CS-MRI methods. In summary, NSST with even number directional decomposition is very competitive in CS-MRI applications as sparsity prior in terms of performance and computational efficiency.

The protection of data is of at prime urgency in the medical field to boost the telemedicine applications. There is a need of robust and secure mechanism to transfer the medical images over the Internet. The proposed watermarking method is based on two popular transform domain techniques, discrete wavelet transforms (DWT) and discrete cosine transform (DCT). In the embedding process, the cover medical image is divided into two separate parts, region of interest (ROI) and non region of interest (NROI). For the identity authentication purpose, multiple watermarks in the form of image and text are embedding into ROI and NROI part of the same cover media object respectively. In order to enhance the security of the text watermark, Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) encryption technique is applied to the text watermark before embedding and the encrypted EPR data is embedded into the NROI portion of the cover medical image. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated for signalprocessing attacks and the desired outcome is obtained without significant degradation in extracted watermark and perceptual quality of the watermarked image.

With advancement of technology, the imageprocessing techniques play an important role. imageprocessing is required to improve the pictorial information for human perception and for autonomous machine applications. It finds application in various fields such as quality control, remote sensing, imaging science, etc. It also finds application in areas where efficient storage and transmission of images is necessary, Say for example;we want to store an image in the computer with less disk space. Also, in cases where we want to signal an image or video on a transmission medium with less bandwidth communication channel. images are usually in the form of matrices and an uncompressed image uses huge number of bytes for storage. image compression is used to reduce the size of the bitmap without compromising on the quality of an image. This enables to store large number of images in the same given amount of storage space. image compression will also reduce the time taken to transmit or to download images from the internet. Many methods are available to compress an image file. The image compression methods which have gained popularity are the transform based coding methods like Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), discrete wavelet Transform (DWT) and fractals. However these methods have drawbacks like low compression ratio and high encoding time. In this paper a new hybrid methodology is proposed by combining lossy and lossless compression methods. The proposed hybrid technique combines DCT and fractal quadtree decomposition with Huffman encoding of threshold value 0.2. The results obtained from the proposed method are then compared with state-of-the-art compression methods.

Dual tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) has the advantages of nearly shift-invariance and directional selectivity (for two or more dimensions) over the classical discrete wavelet transform. These advantages are essential for many signalprocessingapplications (i.e. image fusion, image enhancement, pattern recognition). In his study, a speech enhancement method based on the DT-CWT has been proposed in order to test its performance in speech enhancement. An efficient estimator, multiplicatively modified log-spectral amplitude (MM-LSA) estimator is used for the enhancement of noisy subband wavelet coefficients. The objective and experimental results show the superiority of the proposed method to the wavelet transform based methods well known in the literature.

This research paper deals with methods for improving the performance of Electro-optical detection systems designed to find Resident Space Objects (RSOs). Some methods for detecting RSOs rely on accurate knowledge of the system Point Spread Function (PSF). The PSF is a function of the telescope optics, the atmosphere, and other factors including object intensity and noise present in the system. Due to the random photon arrival times, any observed data will contain Poisson noise. Assuming that other noise sources such as dark current and readout noise do not contribute significantly, the final source of intensity fluctuations in the data is the atmosphere. To quantify these fluctuations, an optical model of a telescope system is developed, and its PSF is simulated. In a long exposure image, the effects of the atmosphere are well characterized with the long exposure atmosphere Optical Transfer Function (OTF). In contrast, a short exposure image does not average the fluctuations as effectively. To model the atmosphere, random phase screens with Kolmogorov statistics are added to the optical model to observe PSF fluctuations in short exposure telescope data. The distribution of the peak intensity is analyzed for varying exposure times and atmospheric turbulence strengths. This distribution is combined with the Poisson random arrival times of photons to create a combined model for received data, which is then used to design a new detection algorithm. The performance of the new space object detection algorithm will be compared to a traditional algorithm using simulated telescope data.

In this study, we aimed to determine whether the medical image belongs to that class or not, using the textural features of medical images. The study was performed on the images in IRMA (image Retrieval in Medical applications), the international database. After performing pre process on the our current medical images, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) was applied and then discrete cosine transform (DCT) was applied to each band components. After feature extraction, using of 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% of the obtained data were classified. K-Nearest neighbor algorithm (KNN) was used in the classification phase. The classification performance was around 87%.

Acrylamide is a toxic carcinogenic material that commonly occurs in heated starchy food items like potato crisps. Identification of such toxic chemical in food items using conventional chemical laboratory based methods is time consuming and expensive and may need specialized manpower for such laboratory testing. This paper proposes an efficient imageprocessing based non-destructive testing method for identification of acrylamide in potato crisps. The image of the potato crisps is automatically segmented and features are extracted from the images in wavelet domain. These features are then analyzed for identification of the presence of acrylamide in these samples. The variation in the various features of the image is related to the presence of acrylamide. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method is efficient for identification of acrylamide from the wavelet features of the images. The proposed method achieves 90% of accuracy and it can be used for real time applications.
