Instead of traditionally using a 3D physical model with many control points on it, a calibration plate with printed chess grid and movable along its normal direction is implemented to provide large area 3D control points with variable Z values. Experiments show that the approach presented is effective for reconstructing 3D color objects in computer vision system.

This paper introduces a new class of switching vector median filter. The proposed algorithm first uses four directional masks to analyze the color difference between the central pixel and its neighborhood pixels in the RGB color space and classify each color pixel into noisy pixel or noise-free one, and then employs the standard vector median filtering operations in the detected noisy locations to restore the corrupted pixels and leave the noise-free ones unchanged. The simulation results show that the proposed method excellently suppresses impulsive noise as well as preserving the image details well, and significantly outperforms the existing vector filtering solutions in terms of both the objective measures and the perceptual visual quality.

In this paper, a real time and robust multi-view lip localization in video frames is proposed. The objective of this research is to exactly localize lip surrounding box with sub-pixel accuracy in low quality video frames. This is achieved by multi-view face detection in video frames, lip ROI extraction, color space transformation, vertical edge feature detection and lip localization by a feature-spatial profile analysis on a joint color-edge plane. One possible application of talking face detection in video is used to evaluate our work. Experimental results on TV programs and movies demonstrate that the proposed approach is efficient and robust in lip localization.

A new restoration algorithm based on double loops and alternant iterations is proposed to restore the object image effectively from a few frames of turbulence-degraded images, Based on the double loops, the iterative relations for estimating the turbulent point spread function PSF and object image alternately are derived. The restoration experiments have been made on computers, showing that the proposed algorithm can obtain the optimal estimations of the object and the point spread function, with the feasibility and practicality of the proposed algorithm being convincing.

The work presented in this paper mainly focuses on designing a monolithic current-mode boost DC-DC converter with integrated 22V DMOS FET power switch and control circuits. The boost converter operating at fixed frequency of 1.6MHz has been fabricated with a 1.5μm Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) process. The chip with features of wide input voltage range (2.7V to 14V), high efficiency over large load range (1mA to 500mA), low shutdown current, fast transient response and low power, was designed for mobile power management applications. Besides issues such as technology choice, power switch optimization and ramp compensation, the paper also copes with the monolithic switching noise in switching power IC circuits.

In this paper, we develop a method for the reconstruction of 3D coronary artery based on two perspective projections acquired on a standard single plane angiographic system in the same systole. Our reconstruction is based on the model of generalized cylinders, which are generated by sweeping a two-dimensional cross section along an axis in three-dimensional space. We restrict the cross section to be circular and always perpendicular to the tangent of the axis. Firstly, the vascular centerlines of the X-ray angiography images on both projections are semiautomatically extracted by multiscale vessel tracking using Gabor filters, and the radius of the coronary are also acquired simultaneously. Secondly, the relative geometry of the two projections is determined by the gantry information and 2D matching is realized through the epipolar geometry and the consistency of the vessels. Thirdly, we determine the three-dimensional (3D) coordinates of the identified object points from the image coordinates of the matched points and the calculated imaging system geometry. Finally, we link the consequent cross sections which are processed according to the radius and the direction information to obtain the 3D structure of the artery. The proposed 3D reconstruction method is validated on real data and is shown to perform robustly and accurately in the presence of noise.

Efficient reconfigurable VLSI architecture for 1-D 5/3 and 9/7 wavelet transforms adopted in JPEG2000 proposal, based on lifting scheme is proposed. The embedded decimation technique based on fold and time multiplexing, as well as embedded boundary data extension technique, is adopted to optimize the design of the architecture. These reduce significantly the required numbers of the multipliers, adders and registers, as well as the amount of accessing external memory, and lead to decrease efficiently the hardware cost and power consumption of the design. The architecture is designed to generate an output per clock cycle, and the detailed component and the approximation of the input signal are available alternately. Experimental simulation and comparison results are presented, which demonstrate that the proposed architecture has lower hardware complexity, thus it is adapted for embedded applications. The presented architecture is simple, regular and scalable, and well suited for VLSI implementation.
