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

This paper proposes a new image denoising method which exploits spatial correlation among image wavelet coefficients and classification technique. By extending the neighbouring threshold of wavelet coefficients for 1D signal to 2D image case, each coefficient in a subband is classified as "large" or "small" category, according to its corresponding neighbouring threshold. Different strategies are implemented to the classified coefficients. Simulation results show that although very simple, the performance of the proposed method can be competitive to the two excellent state of the art denoising algorithms with spatial adaptivity

Brachytherapy is a minimally invasive interventional surgery used to treat prostate cancer. It is composed of three steps: dose pre-planning, implantation of radioactive seeds, and dose post-planning. In these procedures, it is crucial to determine the positions of needles and seeds, measure the volume of the prostate gland. Three-dimensional transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging has been demonstrated to be a useful technique to perform such tasks. Compared to CT, MRI or X-ray imaging, US image suffers from low contrast, image speckle and shadows, making it challenging for segmentation of needles, the prostates and seeds in the 3D TRUS images. In this paper, we reviewed 3D TRUS image segmentation methods used in prostate brachytherapy including the segmentations of the needles, the prostate, as well as the seeds. Furthermore, some experimental results with agar phantom, turkey and chicken phantom, as well as the patient data are reported

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

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

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.

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.
