We present a framework for edge detection in range images acquired by a time of flight laser sensor. Our edge detection approach is inspired by Jiang, X and Bunke, H (Feb., 1999), in the context of which edge detection via scan line approximation with geometric parametric models is performed. The main drawback of this edge detector, namely the scan line over-segmentation problem is addressed by the introduction of a simple merging step. In addition, we incorporate a method for detection of the noisy data points created by the effect of laser beam splitting between surfaces of different ranges. Finally, a procedure for fine localization of the edge points is introduced. Experimental results on a variety of target object configurations demonstrate that our edge detection framework exhibits increased robustness and accuracy with regard to Jiang, X and Bunke, H (Feb., 1999). These characteristics in combination with the computational efficiency of our approach, allows for its usage as a component of a real time system for automatic unloading of piled box-like objects.

An initial estimates method for calibration of a robotic hand-eye relationship is presented in the paper. Classical methods mainly concentrate on solving the basic equation AX=XB, where X is the unknown sensor position relative to the robot hand, A is the robot motion, B is the camera motion. In optimizing process of solving the equation, initial values are needed. Unsuitable initial values often lead to a big error. The proposed method has a large advantage on getting a fine initial value, which can avoid errors introduced by experience effective. Real experiments have been used to test the proposed method and good results have been obtained.

A major obstacle to the wider use of 3D object reconstruction and modeling is the extent of manual intervention needed. Such interventions are currently massive and exist throughout every phase of a 3D reconstruction project: collection of images, image management, establishment of sensor position and image orientation, extracting the geometric detail describing an object, merging geometric, texture and semantic data. This work aims to develop a solution for automated documentation of archaeological pottery, which also leads to a more complete 3D model out of multiple fragments. Generally the 3D reconstruction of arbitrary objects from their fragments can be regarded as a 3D puzzle. In order to solve it we identified the following main tasks: 3D data acquisition, orientation of the object, classification of the object and reconstruction. We demonstrate the method and give results on synthetic and real data.

An important class of radiometric degradations we are faced with often in practice is image blurring. Special attention is paid to the recognition of the blurred image by moment invariant approach. Some important rules of complex moments for the blurred image are presented. Based on these rules, a useful subset of moment invariants is introduced, that are not affected by the blur, rotation, scale, and translation of the images. The experiments have shown that these invariants can be successfully used in recognition of the blurred image.

Wavelet image denoising has been well acknowledged as an important method of denoising in imageprocessing. This paper describers a new method for the suppression of noise in image by fusing the wavelet denoising technique with support vector regression (SVR). Based on the least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM), a new denoising operators used in the wavelet domain are obtained. Simulated noise images are used to evaluate the denoising performance of the proposed algorithm along with the other wavelet-based denoising algorithm. Experimental results show that the proposed denoising method outperforms standard wavelet denoising techniques in terms of the signal-to-noise ratio and the prevented edge information in most cases. It also achieves better performance than the median filter.
In the case of tracking object changing in size, traditional mean-shift based algorithm always leads to poor localization owing to its unchanged kernel-bandwidth. To overcome this limitation, a novel kernel-bandwidth ...

Segmentation and clustering of infrared small target images in a sky or sea-sky background is considered in this paper, which is the preprocessing part of the detection and recognition of the moving small targets in an infrared image sequence. The infrared image intensity surface is well fitted by the least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM), and then the maximum extremum points are detected on the well fitted intensity surface by convolving the image with the second order directional derivative operators deduced from the mapped LS-SVM with mixtures of kernels. With the coarse locations, the possible targets are extracted by the clustering analysis. The computer experiments are carried out for the real and simulated sky and sea-sky infrared images. The experimental results demonstrate the proposed approach is effective.
