The traditional way is to eliminate the intensity inhomogeneity, which causes the object to lose useful intensity information. The authors propose an adaptive level set method for the segmentation of intensity inhomogeneous images. Firstly, global and local features are utilised to collaboratively estimate the image, which devotes to compensating for intensity inhomogeneity. The local estimation retains detailed spatial information, and the global estimation mainly contains the regional information of the partitioned object. Then, during the construction of the energy functional, joint estimation is introduced to create the external energy. To acquire the precise location of the boundary, a weighting factor indicated by the gradient is introduced into the internal energy. Finally, after the numerical calculation of the energy functional by additive operator splitting algorithm, this method achieves the desired performance in terms of accuracy and robustness. Experimental results verify this method outperforms the comparative methods and can be applied to many real-world sce-narios.","PeriodicalId":13486,"journal":{"name":"IET Image Process.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78649737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The challenge in these methods is segmenting the inhomogeneous images with smooth edges. These methods cannot properly segment regions with smooth edges in inhomogeneous images. This paper presents a new local region-based active contour model called local self-weighted active contour model. In the proposed method, a novel different weighting technique is applied. In this model, the weight of each neighbour pixel in the energy function is set by a function of its intensity and not its geometrical distance regarding the central pixel as previous methods. Considering this, the presented approach can segment regions with smooth edges in the presence of inhomogeneity as breast thermography images. The experimental results of applying the model on heterogeneous images containing synthetic images and medical images, especially breast thermography images, are compared with well-known local level-set methods which show the perfect capability of the model. The segmentation results were evaluated using the F-score, accuracy, precision and recall criteria. The results show values of 0.8, 0.62, 0.73 and 0.82 for the average accuracy, F-score, precision and recall criteria on the segmentation of breast thermography images, respectively.","PeriodicalId":13486,"journal":{"name":"IET Image Process.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91236276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Retinex-based methods perform well for low-light images. However, reflectance and illumination estimation is an ill-posed problem. This paper presents a new framework for the simultaneous estimation of reflectance and illumination for low-light image enhancement. The algorithm estimates multiple instances of illumination and reflectance and blends them to estimate the final components. The proposed approach uses multi-scale fusion for illumination estimation and naive fusion for reflectance estimation. Extensive experimentation and analysis with a large set of low-light images validates the performance of the proposed approach. The comparison shows the superiority of the proposed approach over most of the existing low-light image enhancement methods. The proposed method provides colour constancy in low-light image enhancement and preserves the naturalness of the image.","PeriodicalId":13486,"journal":{"name":"IET Image Process.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77613794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A new recognition algorithm for high-voltage lines is proposed based on colour (Red, Green, Blue) RGB image to support the unmanned line inspection. Firstly, in order to solve the problem of missing weak edges in image edge detection, an improved Canny algorithm is proposed. Fourier transform Gaussian filter is introduced to enhance the high-frequency signal of the image, which makes the extracted edge information more complete. At the same time, an improved line segment detector (LSD) algorithm is developed to extract the high-voltage line. The complementary edge information of the three channels of the colour RGB image is analyzed, and the calculation formula of the horizontal line angle is improved, which greatly reduces the possibility of false detection and missed detection in the high-voltage line extraction. In addition, the convolution neural network (CNN) is used to accurately recognize the extracted high-voltage lines, which reduces the interference of non–high-voltage lines.

However, most medical images usually suffer from severe intensity inhomogeneity and make accurate segmentation difficult. In this study, the authors propose an efficient and robust active contour model for simultaneous image segmentation and correction. The proposed model not only can accurately segment images with severe intensity inhomogeneity and serious noise but also can eliminate the intensity varying information to get the homogeneous correction images. They first present the level set formulation of the two-phase model, which is then extended to the multi-phase formulation. The split Bregman method is applied to efficiently minimise the proposed energy functionals. The proposed model is tested with lots of synthetic images and medical images with promising results. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model can accurately segment and correct the inhomogeneous images with serious noise. Quantitative comparison results of the proposed model and other models illustrate the proposed model is more accurate and more efficient. What's more, the proposed model not only is insensitive to the initial contour, but also is robust to the noise.","PeriodicalId":13486,"journal":{"name":"IET Image Process.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85581787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although many improvements have been done over the last years, the performance of the state-of-the-art WZ video codecs still did not reach the performance of state-of-the-art predictive video codecs, especially for high and complex motion video content. This is also true in terms of subjective image quality mainly because of a considerable amount of blocking artefacts present in the decoded WZ video frames. This paper proposes an adaptive deblocking filter to improve both the subjective and objective qualities of the WZ frames in a transform domain WZ video codec. The proposed filter is an adaptation of the advanced deblocking filter defined in the H.264/AVC (advanced video coding) standard to a WZ video codec.
