This feature allows the hidden throughput to be increased and the visual and statistical visibility of hidden data to be reduced. The algorithm is compared with modern algorithms of adaptive spatial steganography in terms of assessing the level of distorting changes in stego-containers. In addition, a modified version of the algorithm that implements covert channel multiplexing using a common subset of container elements when embedding various messages into them is considered.","PeriodicalId":46692,"journal":{"name":"Computer Optics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78128908","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}

It is noted that identifying the outermost breast lesion structures is an important step for the further lesion classification, directly affecting the final classification of its type. The main feature of the proposed approach is that its implementation takes into account peculiarities of pixel brightness variations in the original image, without using speckle noise filters. The method was tested on a set of ultrasound images of morphologically verified 42 benign and 49 malignant breast lesions marked by a radiologist. The segmentation results were compared with the results of manual marking performed by the radiologist. The average errors in the segmentation of benign and malignant lesion were 5 pixels – for the lesion area and 7 pixels – for the peripheral area, which is insignificant, taking into account the error of manual marking performed by radiologist (3.9 and 4.7 pixels, respectively). The average intersection-over-union (IoU) metrics were 0.82 and 0.80, respectively. The presented results indicate the possibility of using the developed technology in a combination with the system of lesion differentiation.","PeriodicalId":46692,"journal":{"name":"Computer Optics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90199049","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}

An impulse noise model is considered, where distorted pixels take random values and also randomly appear in the image. Pixels identified as pulses are recovered with an adaptive median filter. The impulses are determined in the detector window, whose size is calculated in the Euclidean metric and increases with increasing noise intensity in the image. In the experimental part, we discuss visual differences between familiar methods and the one proposed herein on three images for three different impulse noise intensities. In the approximation of image fragments, it is seen that the proposed method copes with the task in the best way, which is also confirmed by numerical estimates of the quality of image reconstruction from impulse noise based on the peak signal-to-noise ratio and the structural similarity index. The proposed method can be used when solving problems of cleaning images under conditions of distorting impulses and for eliminating distortions caused by adverse weather effects, such as raindrops and snow.","PeriodicalId":46692,"journal":{"name":"Computer Optics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85204347","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}

An analysis of state-of-the-art methods and means of automatic processing of images obtained from probe and electron microscopes is carried out. We proposed using generative-adversarial networks for generating images taken with a scanning tunneling microscope to form training databases of images. A process of training and comparison of deep convolutional generative adversarial network (DCGAN) architectures using the OpenCV and Keras libraries together with TensorFlow is described, with the best of them identified by computing the metrics IS, FID, and KID. The scaling of images obtained from DCGAN is performed using a method of fine tuning of a super-resolution generative adversarial neural network (SRGAN) and bilinear interpolation based on the Python programming language. An analysis of calculated quantitative metrics values shows that the best results of image generation are obtained using DCGAN96 and SRGAN. It is found that FID and KID metric values for SRGAN method are better than values for bilinear interpolation in all cases except for DCGAN32. All calculations are performed on a GTX GeForce 1070 video card. A method for automatic generation of a scanning tunneling microscope image database based on the stepwise application of DCGAN and SRGAN is developed. Results of generation and comparison of the original image, the one obtained with DCGAN96 and the enlarged image with SRGAN are presented.","PeriodicalId":46692,"journal":{"name":"Computer Optics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74983200","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 proposed algorithm is based on machine learning methods and uses parameters extracted from the wavelet scalogram of pediatric and adult electroretinogram signals. The study also uses a labeled database of pediatric and adult electroretinogram signals recorded using a computerized electrophysiological workstation EP-1000 (Tomey GmbH) at the IRTC Eye Microsurgery Ekaterinburg Center. The scientific novelty of this study consists in the development of special mathematical and algorithmic software for analyzing a procedure for extracting wavelet scalogram parameters of the electroretinogram signal using the cwt function of the PyWT. The basis function is a Gaussian wavelet of order 8.
