Motion blur detection and the relevant blurring parameter estimation are important for many computer vision tasks. The contribution of this paper is in two folds. First, we propose a closed-form solution for motion direction estimation on blurred image. Secondly, a novel method is proposed for motion blurred region detection. The proposed direction estimation is based on measurement of lowest directional high-frequency energy. Compared with traditional methods, it will improve accuracy with less computational cost. Moreover, the proposed motion blurred region detection can efficiently estimate blurred regions without Point Spread Function estimation. Encouraging results are shown by experiments.

In order to improve the classifier performance in semantic image annotation, we propose a novel method which adopts learning vector quantization (LVQ) technique to optimize low level feature data extracted from given image. Some representative vectors are selected with LVQ to train support vector machine (SVM) classifier instead of using all feature data. Performance is compared between the methods with and without feature data optimization when SVM is applied to semantic image annotation. Experiment results show that the proposed method has a better performance than that without using LVQ technique.

In automatic image annotation, it is often extracting low-level visual features from original image for the purpose of mapping to high level image semantic information. In this paper, we propose a novel method which integrates kernel independent component analysis (KICA) and support vector machine (SVM) for analyzing the semantic information of natural images. KICA, which contains a nonlinear kernel mapping component, is adopted to extract low-level features from the original image data. Then these feature vectors are mapped to high-level semantic words using SVM to annotate images with labels in a given semantic label set. Comparative studies have done for the performance of KICA with traditional color histogram and discrete cosine transform features. The experimental results show that the proposed method is capable of extracting the components of images as key features, and with these features to map into semantic categories, higher accuracy is achieved.

In classification of multi-source remote sensing image, it is usually difficult to obtain higher classification accuracy. In the previous work, the modeling technique for the remote sensing image classification based on the minimum description length (MDL) principle with mixture model is analyzed theoretically. In this work, experimental studies are performed for investigating the modeling technique. With intensive experiments and sophisticated analysis, it is found that the developed modeling technique can build a robust classification system, which can avoid classifier over-fitting training data and make the learning process trade-off between bias and variance. Meanwhile, designed mixture model is more efficient to represent real multi-source remote sensing images compared to single model.

Based on the discrete Fourier transformation (DFT) and Hough transforms, a novel digital watermarking method is proposed. The experiment results show that the algorithm is more robust than the traditional watermark algorithm. The proposed algorithm can endure severe attacks such as printing-scanning, very high loss in its data or data packets, scaling and rotating. The most advantage of the algorithm presented in this paper is that it is robust for the first time of print and scan, but fragile for the second time of print and scan. So this method can be used in the anti counterfeit of certificates.

3D reconstruction from single view is a very difficult problem in computer vision and computer graphics. Few works have been done in this area. In this paper, we proposed a method to discover structural regularity in single facade images on the procedural modeling of buildings by using SIFT algorithm. Firstly, symmetry information is detected from the image using SIFT algorithm for image analysis. Next, the symmetry information will be removed from the facade image. Finally, get the SIFT feature of widows and doors. Experiments show that our method can successfully discover regular structures with a higher recognition rate than existing method especially amidst shadowing and the changing illumination environment.

Cardiovascular interventions in the region of the aortic isthmus such as stent-grafting and vessel transposition introduce substantial changes in the deformation properties of the affected vessels. The changes play a fundamental role in the long-term prognosis for any such treatment, but are only poorly understood to date. We explore a fully automated method to quantify the deformation patterns of the thoracic aorta in gated computed tomography sequences. The aorta is segmented by a level set approach that accurately identifies the vessel lumen in each frame of the sequence. Consequently, landmarks on the vessel wall in each frame are registered using a probabilistic method. This allows for the measurement of global and local deformation properties. We evaluate our method on synthetic datasets and report first results of its application on real world data.

A method of printing and certificate forgery based on digital watermarking is presented. This method embeds watermark in the DFT domain using the principles that middle and low frequency coefficients have little changes in print-scan process, and using HOUGH transform for image correction to resist rotation attacks when extracting watermarks. The experimental results show that this method has strong robustness to first print-scan images, which can be detected right watermarks, while for the second print-scan images robustness drops about 20%. Therefore the algorithm can be used to identify the authenticity of printing and certificates by the correction of the watermarks and can be used to all types of copyright protection and certificates security.

This paper focuses on route planning, especially for unmanned aircrafts in marine environment. Firstly, new heuristic information is adopted such as threat-zone, turn maneuver and forbid-zone based on voyage heuristic information. Then, the cost function is normalized to obtain more flexible and reasonable routes. Finally, an improved sparse A* search algorithm is employed to enhance the planning efficiency and reduce the planning time. Experiment results showed that the improved algorithm for aircraft in maritime environment could find a combinational optimum route quickly, which detoured threat-zones, with fewer turn maneuver, totally avoiding forbid-zones, and shorter voyage.

In this paper, a novel method of fingerprint minutiae extraction on grey-scale images is proposed based on the Gabor phase field. The novelty of our approach is that the proposed algorithm is performed on the transform domain, i.e. the Gabor phase field of the fingerprint image. This is different from most existing minutiae extraction methods, in which the minutiae are usually extracted from the binarized and thinned fingerprint image. Experimental results on benchmark data sets demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has promising performances.
