This paper introduces the new qualitative and quantitative methods, which can diagnose breast tumors. Qualitative methods include blood vessel display inside and outside of pathological changes part of breast, display of equivalent pixel curves at the part of pathological changes and display of breast tumor image edge. Accordingly, three feature extraction operators are proposed, i.e. the combination operators of anisotropic gradient and smoothing operator, an improved Sobel operator and an edge sharpening operator. Furthermore, quantitative diagnostic approaches are discussed based on blood and oxygen contents according to abundant clinical data and pathological mechanism of breast tumors. The results of clinic show that the methods of combining qualitative and quantitative diagnose are effective for breast tumor images, especially for early and potential breast cancer

A DSP/FPGA-based parallel architecture oriented to real-time imageprocessing applications is presented. The architecture is structured with high performance DSPs interconnected by FPGA. Within FPGA a FIFO interconnection network and the specific data communication protocol are implemented, which interconnect 3 DSPs (TMS320C6414) effectively. The measured performances in the prototype with the proposed parallel architecture, including inter-DSP data communication performance and system computing capacity, show high data transfer bandwidth (up to 400 Mbytes/s) with low latency as well as high imageprocessing performance, which achieve a good balance for parallel imageprocessing

In this paper, a unique road contour extraction approach from high resolution satellite image is proposed, in which the road contour was extracted in two steps. Firstly, support vector machines (SVM) was employed merely to classify the image into two groups of categories: a road group and a non-road group. The identified road group images are the discrete and irregularly distributed sampled points, and they are an uncompleted data set for the road. Secondly, the road contour was extracted from the road group images using the tensor voting framework, since the tensor voting technique is superior to the traditional methods in extracting the geometrical structure from the uncompleted data set. The experimental results on the high resolution satellite image demonstrate that the proposed approach worked well with images comprised by both rural and urban area features.

The image fusion is an important approach to produce a single complete image which preserves all relevant information from different sensors. In this paper, we proposed a support value transform-based multi focus image fusion method, where the fused saliency features are represented by support values. Based on the mapped least squares support vector machine, the support value transform is developed as a multi-scale analysis tool. The fusing results on the multi focus images demonstrate that the proposed image fusion method is effective and efficient

A novel Parallel-Based Lifting Algorithm (PBLA) for Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), exploiting the parallelism of arithmetic operations in all lifting steps, is proposed in this paper. It leads to reduce the critical path latency of computation, and to reduce the complexity of hardware implementation as well. The detailed derivation on the proposed algorithm, as well as the resulting Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) architecture, is introduced, taking the 9/7 DWT as an example but without loss of generality. In comparison with the Conventional Lifting Algorithm Based Implementation (CLABI), the critical path latency of the proposed architecture is reduced by more than half from (4Tm + 8Ta)to Tm + 4Ta, and is competitive to that of Convolution-Based Implementation (CBI), but the new implementation will save significantly in hardware. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed architecture has good performance in both increasing working frequency and reducing area.

A C64x-based multi-DSP real-time imageprocessing system is introduced, which uses high performance TMS320C6414 DSP to process image and FPGA device to realize LINK port to transport image data with LVDS signal. Requirements of imageprocessing performance and image data communication of image fusion are met. Based on the hardware system, a real time microkernel based distributed operating system is designed and implemented. At the end, its real-time performance is analyzed from three aspects. It's shown that the real time imageprocessing system can reach the requirements of real time imageprocessing.

Since the DC-coupled interface between the driver and the laser diode makes it impossible for the conventional drivers to work with low power supply, an output stage has been proposed. A novel APC can suppress the output average optical power and extinction ratio within ±0.3 dBm and ±0.4 dB(-40°C to 100°C), respectively. The initialization time is not more than 0.6 μs because the fast binary search algorithm is incorporated into the APC. The burst-on delay and burst-off delay are less than 5 ns and meet the requirement of PON system. The chip is fabricated in TSMC 0.8 μm BiCMOS process and occupies an area of 1.56 mm × 1.67 mm with a power consumption of 105 mW.

A new digital image scrambling method based on DCT and chaos maps is presented in this *** the chaotic system in semi-frequency domain,all the pixels of the original image are rearranged and *** procedure of the algorithm is roughly divided into three steps:first,an original image is decomposed for its first variable by 1-D DCT, then modulated by chaos system,a primary scrambling result is achieved,at last,after by inverse 1-D DCT for the scrambling result,repeating the same procedure for the second variable,a final scrambling result is obtained for the original *** confirm the robustness of the novel method,some robustness testing experiments are carried out on the scrambling *** experimental results shows that the method succeeds in enduring several kinds of common image attacks,such as cropping,noise and rotation.

When an monocular vision-based unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based on vision is flown to the final approach fix to intercept the glide slope without the navigation of Global Positioning System (GPS), the position and orientation of the airport runway in image must be detected accurately so as to a host of suitable procedures have to be followed. The optimum length of the final approach is about five miles from the runway threshold. The front view of the runway, which is achieved at the moment, is very illegible. The approaching marking (cross bar) of the runway are showed as some white spots of high intensity and the complicated backgrounds of the airport are included in the images. In this case, spots with high intensity should be extracted and classified, some of these spots are just the images of the background noises and the pseudo-targets, which can't be separated with the spots of the runway as in the view there is no significant characteristic difference among them ostensibly. Fortunately, in the terrestrial coordinate space, most of the runway marks are located at the apexes of a rectangle, having some geometric relationships. The relationship among the projection coordinates of the runway spots in the images can be determined according to the perspective principle, the constraint condition of the rectangle as well as the front shot constraint condition of the target, by using this relationship, the runway approaching marks can be separated, the position and the direction of the runway in the images can be identified. In this paper, the clustering management is adopted so as to greatly reduce the computing time. The consequence of the experiments shows that by this algorithm, even from a place far away from the runway whose marks are unclear, we also can effectively detect the runway.
