We propose a fast algorithm which is based on the beam let decomposition for real-time rendering of scenes in participating media with multiple scattering. Firstly, the light source radiation is considered as composed by all particles in the media and each particle radiation is decomposed along different forward directions using the plane decomposition method. Then the multiple scattering radiation of one particle is calculated by the decomposition radiations from its adjacent particles and the light source. Finally, according to the multiple scattering radiation value of each particle, the radiation of the ray which is from viewpoint is calculated using ray marching method, which can be implemented on the graphics processing unit (GPU), and rendering process is highly parallel. The experimental results show that the algorithm can achieve real-time rendering efficiency and enhance the practicality of multiple scattering.

Texture classification is an important problem in image analysis. A considerable amount of research work has been done for local or global rotation invariant feature extraction for texture classification. Local invariant features contain the spatial information, but usually do not have the contrast information. A new hybrid approach is proposed which considers the contrast information in spatial domain and the phase information in frequency domain of the image. It uses the joint histogram of the two complementary features, local phase quantization (LPQ) and the contrast of the image. Support vector machine is used for classification. The experimental results on standard benchmark datasets for texture classification Brodatz and KTH-TIPS2-a show that the proposed method can achieve significant improvement compared to the LPQ, Gabor filer or local Binary pattern methods.

Recently, spatial principal component analysis of census transform histograms (PACT) was proposed to recognize instance and categories of places or scenes in an image. When combining PACT with Local difference Magnitude Binary pattern (LMBP), a new representation called Local Difference Binary pattern (LDBP) was proposed and performed better. LDBP is based on the comparisons between center pixel and its neighboring pixels. However, the relationship among neighbor pixels is not considered. In this paper we proposed Local Neighbor Binary pattern (LNBP) to utilize the relationship among neighboring pixels. LNBP provides complementary information regarding neighboring pixels for LDBP. We propose to combine LDBP with LNBP, and used a spatial representation for scene recognition. Experiments on two widely used dataset demonstrate the proposed method can improve the performance of recognition.

In this paper, based on Khalimsky grid, a new Random-valued Impulse noise identification and removal method is proposed. Khalimsky grid can presents the neighborhood relationship among the pixels in the sliding window, effectively. The local statistics of Khalimsky grid is used to define an adaptive threshold range to identify the central pixel in current sliding window as noisy or noise free in an iterative way. The identified noisy pixel is replaced by local statistics of propose vertical direction based noise removal method. The performance of the propose method is evaluated on different test images and compared with state-of-the-art methods. Experimental results show that the propose method can identify the impulse noise, as well as can preserve the detailed information of an image, efficiently.

Dimension reduction methods are often used to analyzing high dimensional data, linear dimension methods are commonly used due to their simple geometric interpretations and for effective computational cost. Dimension reduction plays an important role for feature selection. In this paper, we have given a detailed comparison of state-of-the-art linear dimension reduction methods like principal component analysis (PCA), random projections (RP), and locality preserving projections (LPP). We have determined which dimension reduction method performs better under the FastTag image annotation framework. Experiments are conducted on three standard bench mark image datasets such as CorelSk, IAPRTC-12 and ESP game to compare the efficiency, effectiveness and also memory usage. A detailed comparison among the aforementioned dimension reduction method is given.

Segmentation becomes a difficult task if the objects are not homogeneous and have overlapping characteristics. The Graph Cuts methods combined with Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) for initialization label has been adopted to detect cattle object in an image with complex background. The RGB colors and Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) textures are used as the features set. This method can robustly segment the cattle beef image from its background. This segmentation method produces the average of accuracy value up to 90%.

We present a new feature extraction method, which called the complete two-dimensional principal component analysis (Complete 2DPCA), for image registration. Complete 2DPCA is based on 2D image matrices. Two image covariance matrices are constructed directly using the original image matrix and their eigenvectors are derived for image feature extraction. In the 2D image registration scheme, we propose complete 2DPCA to extract features from the image sets, and these features are input vectors of feedforward neural networks (FNN). Neural network outputs are registration parameters with respect to reference and observed image sets. Comparative experiments are performed between complete 2DPCA based method and other feature based methods. The results show that the proposed method has an encouraging performance.

Fusion of multispectral and panchromatic remote sensing images is a procedure to obtain spatial resolution and quality of the panchromatic image as well as preserving spectral information of the multispectral image. In this paper, we present a new fusion method based on HSI (Hue-Saturation-Intensity) and Contourlet transform. First, we convert the multispectral image from the RGB color space into the HSI color space. Then, by applying Contourlet transform to the panchromatic image and the I component of the multispectral image, we utilize an improved fusion rule based on PCA for the low-frequency sub-images, and engage the maximum fusion rule for the high-frequency sub-images. Finally, a fusion image is obtained by the inverse HSI transform. The experimental results show that the proposed fusion method not only enhances the spatial resolution of the fusion image, but also preserves the spectral information of the original multispectral image.

Software fault prediction techniques are helpful in developing dependable software. In this paper, we proposed a novel framework that integrates testing and prediction process for unit testing prediction. Because high fault prone metrical data are much scattered and multi-centers can represent the whole dataset better, we used artificial immune network (aiNet) algorithm to extract and simplify data from the modules that have been tested, then generated multi-centers for each network by Hierarchical Clustering. The proposed framework acquires information along with the testing process timely and adjusts the network generated by aiNet algorithm dynamically. Experimental results show that higher accuracy can be obtained by using the proposed framework.
