A fast object detection method based on object region dissimilarity and 1-D AGADM(one dimensional average gray absolute difference maximum) between object and background isproposed for real-time defection of small offshore targets. Then computational complexity, antinoiseperformance, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain between original images and their results as afunction of SNR of original images and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve are analyzed andcompared with those existing methods of small target detection such as two dimensional average grayabsolute difference maximum (2-D AGADM), median contrast filter algorithm and multi-level filteralgorithm. Experimental results and theoretical analysis have shown that the proposed method hasfaster speed and more adaptability to small object shape and also yields improved SNR performance.

This paper proposes a fast and robust algorithm for classification and recognition of ships based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method. The three-dimensional ship models are achieved by modeling software of MultiGen, and then they are projected by Vega simulating software for two-dimensional ship silhouettes. The PCA method as against the Back-Propagation (BP) neural network method for simulated ship recognition using training and testing experiments, we can see that there is a sharp contrast between them. Some recognition results from simulated data are presented, the correct recognition rate of PCA method improved rapidly for each of the five ship types than that of neural network method, the number of times a ship type is recognized as one of the other ships is reduced greatly.

An effective approach to the detection and tracking of small moving targets with low contrast is proposed. In our application, small moving targets are detected and tracked in a low quality video sequence captured from an airborne platform. The detection and tracking system includes three modules. First, the global motion parameters are estimated using fast least trimmed squares (FAST-LTS) regression and hierarchical processing. Once the global motion is robustly estimated, relatively stationary background can be eliminated almost completely through image warping. Then a motion-based fast target detector selects candidate pixels of the moving targets with motions statistically different from that of the background, and a particle filtering tracker examines the temporal consistency of targets to identify them and update their states. Information in the system flows in a closed loop form, in which the tracker instructs the detector where to look for a target, and the detector returns what it has found. Experimental results prove that the proposed method can reliably and effectively detect and track the real small moving target in real-time even if there is strong clutter influence.
In this paper, we present a new method for X-ray angiogram images enhancement using a contrast-modulated nonlinear diffusion. The original nonlinear diffusion is gradient driven, which leads into much dependence on th...

Microlens array is an important optical element to improve the photosensitivity of charge-coupled device (CCD). In this paper, a monolithic integration technology between microlens and 528 X 528 element PtSi Schottky-barrier infrared charge-coupled device (IRCCD) with a pixel size of 30mum X 30mum has been developed. The microlens array with low sag and long focal length is designed based on geometrical optics theory. It is directly formed on the back side of the substrate in IRCCD chip using successive photolithography and A(+) ion beam etching (IBE) technology. The microlens array is characterized by both surface stylus and point spread function (PSF). The experiment results of integration device between IRCCD and microlens array indicate that the optical signal response is improved obviously and a responsivity increase by a factor of 1.8 in the operation band.

Based on statistical learning theory, support vector machine (SVM) is a novel type of learning machine, and it contains polynomial, neural network and radial basis function (RBF) as special cases. The mapped least squares support vector machine (MLS-SVM) is a special least square SVM (LS-SVM), which extends the application of the SVM to the imageprocessing. Based on the MLS-SVM, a family of filters for the approximation of partial derivatives of the digital image surface is designed. Prior information (e.g., local dominant orientation) are incorporated in a two dimension weighted function. The weighted MLS-SVM with the radial basis function kernel is applied to design the proposed filters. Exemplary application of the proposed filters to fingerprint image segmentation is also presented.
Many vision-related processing tasks, including edge detection and image segmentation, can be performed more easily when all objects in the scene are in good focus. However, in practice, this may not be always feasibl...

In clinical practice, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a powerful technique for the visualization of blood vessels in the human body. Blood vessel segmentation is a main problem for 3D vascular reconstruction. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive thresholding method for the segmentation of DSA images. Each pixel of the DSA images is declared to be a vessel/background point with regard to a threshold and a few local characteristic limits depending on some information contained in the pixel neighborhood window. The size of the neighborhood window is set according to a priori knowledge of the diameter of vessels to make sure that each window contains the background definitely. Some experiments on cerebral DSA images are given, which show that our proposed method yields better results than global thresholding methods and some other local thresholding methods do.
