First, the color of each pixel in an input image is projected onto one of three bisecting planes or bisectors of an RGB color cube to increase saturation. Then, that projected color is transformed into a target color with a designated luminance and the same hue as the original color. Experimental results show that the proposed method can enhance color images better than can recent hue-preserving color image enhancement methods..

If the algorithm of the original,i.e. forward filter is explicitly expressed, its inversion is tractable. However, if its algorithm is unknown exactly, it is hard to be reversed. We present, in this paper, a simple solution for this problem only by iterating the forward filter. This method can be used for a wide class of image filters including ones built in photo-retouch softwares. Examples are shown for smoothing, sharpening, halftoning and resizing filters..

32. Kohei Inoue, Hara Kenji, Kiichi Urahama, RGB color cube-based histogram specification for hue-preserving color image enhancement, Journal of Imaging, 10.3390/jimaging3030024, 3, 3, 2017.09, [URL], A large number of color image enhancementmethods are based on themethods for grayscale image enhancement in which the main interest is contrast enhancement. However, since colors usually have three attributes, including hue, saturation and intensity of more than only one attribute of grayscale values, the naive application of themethods for grayscale images to color images often results in unsatisfactory consequences. Conventional hue-preserving color image enhancement methods utilize histogram equalization (HE) for enhancing the contrast. However, they cannot always enhance the saturation simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a histogram specification (HS) method for enhancing the saturation in hue-preserving color image enhancement. The proposed method computes the target histogram for HS on the basis of the geometry of RGB (rad, green and blue) color space, whose shape is a cube with a unit side length. Therefore, the proposed method includes no parameters to be set by users. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves higher color saturation than recent parameter-free methods for hue-preserving color image enhancement. As a result, the proposed method can be used for an alternative method of HE in hue-preserving color image enhancement..

The Neugebauer model expresses an arbitrary color as a trilinear interpolation of basic colors. The proposed method quantizes the color of each pixel to a basic color which minimizes an accumulated quantization error, and the quantization error is diffused to the ratios of basic colors in subsequent pixels. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms conventional color error diffusion methods including separable method in terms of eye model-based mean squared error..

It solves two problems of nonuniformity of spatial resolution and spherical polar coordinates singularity. For the first problem, we derive a Laplacian operator and a class of differential corner detectors that can handle spatial inhomogeneities in omnidirectional panoramic images using differential schemes. To solve the second problem, we use an overset grid system on the sphere called the Yin-Yang grid. This is realized based on the property that each of the modified Laplacian operator and corner detector is invariant with respect to coordinate transformation between the two spherical polar coordinate systems associated with the Yin-Yang grid system..

However, the theoretical comparison of the performance of their methods has not been conducted yet. In this paper, we propose a hue-preserving saturation maximization method, and show a relationship of the saturation of enhanced colors by related methods. We also demonstrate the correctness of the relationship experimentally..

Generally, the boundaries of Voronoi regions do not coincide with the edges of the image. Therefore, image segmentation based on CVT often disturbs the edges. We developed an edge-preserving CVT technique that reduces the disturbance around the edges of an image and the Voronoi boundaries and applied it to non-photorealistic halftoning..

D, 情報・システム = The IEICE transactions on information and systems, 96, 11, 2825-2837, 2013.11, 本論文では,CT画像を用いた,様々なサイズの原発性肝がん(以下,腫瘍)に対応可能な腫瘍検出法を報告する.従来,CT画像を用いた腫瘍検出では,1cm以上の腫瘍を自動検出する研究が盛んであり,これらの研究では2種類の異なる画像(動脈相,遅延相)が用いられてきた.このうち,遅延相は正確な腫瘍サイズ計測が可能であるが,コントラストが低いため1cm以下の小結節の検出が難しい.一方,動脈相では小結節検出が可能になるが,雑音と腫瘍の輝度値が類似しているため誤検出が生じやすい,という問題があった.そこで本論文では,様々なサイズの腫瘍が検出可能な動脈相を用いた腫瘍の自動検出法を提案する.提案手法では,複数腫瘍の自動検出を実現するため,腫瘍個数の事前知識が不要なLevel Set Methodを導入する.更に,低コントラストや雑音に対応した,新たな成長速度項を提案する.提案手法を臨床画像24症例に適用した結果,Sensitivity 90%以上,誤検出が1症例当り3.1個となり,従来のLevel Set Methodを用いた検出手法と比較して,検出精度が大幅に向上することを確認した..

To shrink an image, we first separately cluster a set of rows and a set of columns in the original image and then replace each cluster with a representative row or column to reduce the numbers of rows and columns. To enlarge an image, we add linearly interpolated rows and columns between adjacent clusters. Experimental results show that the proposed method can shrink or enlarge given images while preserving the aspect ratios of the main objects in the images..

The shape of the filter window is adaptively determined for each pixel by the MST, which avoids stepping over edges in images. Experimental results showed that the proposed MST filters can remove impulse noise better than conventional EPS filters..

In this paper, first we devise a generalized multiple correlation measure between one gray image and a set of multiple gray images and derive a decorrelation-based blind image separation algorithm. However, many blind image separation methods, including this algorithm, suffer from a permutation ambiguity problem that the success of the separation depends upon the selection of permutations corresponding to the orders of the update operations. To solve the problem, we improve the first algorithm above by decorrelating the mixtures while searching for the appropriate update permutation using a pruning technique. We show its effectiveness through experiments with artificially mixed images and real images..

Recently, two-dimensional LDA (2DLDA) for matrices such as images has been reformulated into symmetric 2DLDA (S2DLDA), which is solved by an iterative algorithm. In this paper, we propose a non-iterative S2DLDA and experimentally show that the proposed method achieves comparable classification accuracy with the conventional S2DLDA, while the proposed method is computationally more efficient than the conventional S2DLDA..

The problem becomes even more challenging if we wish to deal with real-world objects that naturally have spatially inhomogeneous reflectance. In this paper, we derive a novel method for estimating the spatially varying specular reflectance properties of a surface of known geometry as well as the illumination distribution of a scene from a specular-only image, for instance, recovered from two images captured with a polarizer to separate reflection components. Unlike previous work, we do not assume the illumination to be a single point light source. We model specular reflection with a spherical statistical distribution and encode its spatial variation with a radial basis function (RBF) network of their parameter values, which allows us to formulate the simultaneous estimation of spatially varying specular reflectance and illumination as a constrained optimization based on the I-divergence measure. To solve it, we derive a variational algorithm based on the expectation maximization principle. At the same time, we estimate optimal encoding of the specular reflectance properties by learning the number, centers, and widths of the RBF hidden units. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the method on images of synthetic and real-world objects..

In this paper, we propose a novel photometric stereo method which is robust to the specular reflection of the object surface. Our method can also digitize the artwork arranged inside a glass or acrylic display case without bringing the artwork out of the display case. Our method treats the specular reflection at the object surface or at the display case as an outlier, and finds a good surface normal evading the influence of the outliers. We judiciously design the cost function so that the outlier will be automatically removed under the assumption that the object's shape and color are smooth. At the end of this paper, we also show some archived 3D data of Segonko Tumulus and objects in the University Museum at The University of Tokyo that were generated by applying the proposed method..

We assume that the illumination consists of multiple point light sources and the shape of the object is known. First, we represent the illumination on the surface of a unit sphere as a finite mixture of von Mises-Fisher distributions based on a novel spherical specular reflection model that well approximates the Torrance-Sparrow reflection model. Next, we estimate the parameters of this mixture model including the number of its component distributions and the standard deviation of them, which correspond to the number of light sources and the surface roughness, respectively. Finally, using these results as the initial estimates, we iteratively refine the estimates based on the original Torrance-Sparrow reflection model. The final estimates can be used to relight single-view images such as altering the intensities and directions of the individual light sources. The proposed method provides a unified framework based on directional statistics for simultaneously estimating the intensities and directions of an unknown number of light sources as well as the specular reflection parameter of the object in the scene..

The neural network finds a relationship between external forces and the models deformed by the forces. The experimental results show that the trained network can achieve a real-time simulation while keeping the acceptable accuracy compared with the nonlinear FEM computation..

We also modulate the brightness of the paper mosaic image on the basis of the paper's texture. That is, we incorporate the effects of the paper's thickness and texture into the resultant paper mosaic image. We experimentally showed that our method increases the three-dimensional sense of depth in paper mosaic images..

Although there have been many reports of the use of the level set method as an effective method for topology-adaptive geometrical modeling, the methods suffers from the problem that the computational cost is very large. The narrow band method has been widely used as the most general method for increasing the speed of the level set method, but it has not been found to sufficiently reduce the computational cost. The proposed fast narrow band method retains the precision of the narrow band method while reducing the computational cost by using distance information to increase the efficiency of the search process. Experiments are performed on scenes containing objects with holes and scenes containing multiple objects, and a five-fold increase in speed is achieved over the Hermes algorithm, which was previously the fastest implementation of the level set method..

The computation time of our method is independent of the number of Voronoi sites. In addition to the previous additively, multiplicatively, compoundly weighted Voronoi diagrams and the additively weighted power Voronoi diagram, we proposed a new weighted Voronoi diagram, namely the compoundly weighted power Voronoi diagram. These five weighted Voronoi diagrams were efficiently computed with our two-scan algorithm..

This method utilizes an implicit representation of a contour to be tracked, and is able to handle the topological change of the contour intrinsically. Various applications including motion tracking and 3D geometrical modeling have been proposed so far. However, the calculation cost of reinitialization and updating of the implicit function is considerably expensive as compared with conventional active contour models such as"Snakes". To overcome this problem, we have proposed an efficient algorithm of the LSM named the Fast Level Set Method (FLSM) . This paper presents a 3D simultaneous motion tracking system of multiple targets using the FLSM, and shows a series of experimental results to verify the effectiveness of the system even in the event of occlusion. Characteristics of this system are as follows: (i) Topologically free, (ii) Robustness for self and mutual occlusion, (iii) Ease to calibrate several stereo cameras using ICP algorithm. In this paper, we present a robust 3D motion tracking system for target occlusion using the FLSM, and show some experimental results of tracking of multiple targets..

Sethian, has attracted much attention as a topological-free active contour model. This method utilizes an implicit representation of a contour to be tracked, and is able to handle the topological change of the contour naturally. Various applications based on the level set method have been presented including motion tracking, 3D geometrical modelling, and simulation of crystallization or semiconductor growth. However, the calculation cost of reinitialization and updating of the implicit function is considerably expensive as compared with the cost of conventional active contour models such as "Snakes". In this paper, we propose an efficient calculation algorithm for the level set method named the Fast Level Set Method (FLSM). Advantages of the proposed FLSM are as follows: i) the use of the extension velocity and the high speed construction of the extension velocity field using the Fast Narrow Band Method, ii) the frequent execution of the reinitialization process of the implicit function which requires little calculation cost. The efficiency of the proposed method is verified through computer simulations, and experiments of realtime tracking of moving obiects in video images..

However, those methods are computationally inefficient due to repeated distance transformations and increased dimensions. In the paper, we propose a new method of modeling fast objects of arbitrary topology by using a surface evolution approach based on mathematical morphology. Given sensor data covering the whole object surface, the method begins with an initial approximation of the object by evolving a closed surface into a model topologically equivalent to the real object. The refined approximation is then performed using energy minimization. The method has been applied in several experiments using range data, and the results are reported in the paper..

The Level Set Methods have been used by many researchers to recover 3-D shapes of arbitrary topology. However, those methods are computationally inefficient. To reduce the computational cost, a new method named FNB (Fast Narrow Band Method) is proposed. FNB is based on the Narrow Band Method (NB) which is the well-known fast method of the Level Set Method. The main idea is to exploit the combinative use of the narrow band and the approximate distance from the front. The method has been applied in several experiments using range data and we find that our method is over 50 times faster than NB..

For a simpler drive using conventional three-phase inverters, a surface Induction motor with divided windings is proposed, in which one inverter is used for supplying power to one group of windings. Continuously change of thrust direction is verified by using a test machine. The experimental and theoretical results give that the six-division type with three three-phase inverters or eight-division type surface motor supplied by four threephase inverters is best..

A new model generation method is proposed, which obtains a mesh representation of the surfaces by integrating multiple range images with an optimization algorithm based on closeness to the original image data. The method is a relaxation algorithm that achieves accurate shape descriptions gradually by modifying and propagating mesh arrangements iteratively. The paper first presents the formulation within the framework of regularization by redefining the minimization energy function in which both the data closeness and surface smoothness are considered. Next, we give the detailed procedure of the method repeating the surface reconstruction using the chosen regularization parameter at each stage. The search vector field corresponding to range data is generated alternately. The method has been applied to real range images to verify the applicability, and results are reported in the paper..

Nagata, Curve and surface reconstruction by using sequential Markov random fields (MRFs), 1995 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, 2, 1097-1102, 1995, The statistical approach using the coupled Markov random field (MRF) and the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate has been proposed in order to satisfy both the preservation of local discontinuities and the smoothing of continuous regions for reconstruction of derivative feature measurements and range data. However, this data reconstruction method has some very difficult problems that it is hard to obtain proper results by finding the global optimal solution correctly. Especially, if the ordinary iteration solutions are used for the noisy and rugged data, is it likely that the convergence happens to be at a local optimal solution depending upon the initial value, and the noise smoothing is insufficient or the edge parts are overslurred. To cope with the difficulties, we propose a recovery method that regards the MAP estimation itself as the basic process and do the computation iteratively while controlling smoothing by changing values of the MRF parameters according to some scheduling. The presented algorithm reduces failures because of the local optimization, and is respected to give better results of reconstruction. The applicability of the method has been verified by several reconstruction experiments..
