Noise reduction is an important field in image processing and requires a statistical approach. However, it is difficult to assume a specific distribution of noise, and a spatial filter that reflects regional characteristics is a small sample and cannot be accessed in a parametric manner. The first order image differential and the second order image differential show a clear difference according to the noise level included in the image and can be more clearly understood using the canyon edge detector. The Fligner-Killeen test was performed and the bootstrap method was used to statistically check the noise level. The estimated noise level was set between 0 and 1 using the cumulative distribution function of the beta distribution. In this paper, we propose a nonparametric noise reduction algorithm that accounts for the noise level included in the image.

Definition-Enhancement of the digitalized image has been being made researches continuously due to application a camera to a mobile-apparatus and the advent of a digital camera. In particular, the inputted image from a sensor goes through the process of ISP(Image Signal Process) prior to output as a visual image. The high-frequency components are offset by LPF(Low Pass Filter) that eliminates the noise of high spatial-frequency at the moment. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that outputs more vivid image by using adaptive-HPF(High Pass Filter) that has apt coefficients for diverse conditions of an image edge, nevertheless we do not employ any Edge-Detection algorithm to enhance a blurred image.

Various methods have been studying to maintain and apply the multimedia inform abruptly increasing over all social fields, in recent years. For retrieval of still images, we is implemented content-based image retrieval system in this paper that make possible to retrieve similar objects from image database after segmenting query object from background if user request query. Query image is processed median filtering to remove noise first and then object edge is detected it by canny edge detection. And query object is segmented from background by using convex hull. Similarity value can be obtained by means of histogram intersection with database image after securing color histogram from segmented image. Also segmented image is processed gray convert and wavelet transform to extract spacial gray distribution and texture feature. After that, Similarity value can be obtained by means of banded autocorrelogram and energy. Final similar image can be retrieved by adding upper similarity values that it make possible to not only robust in background but also better correct object retrieval by using object segmentation method.

This study introduces an automatic image matching algorithm that can be applied for the scale different image pairs consisting of the satellite pushbroom images and the aerial frame images. The proposed method is based on several image processing techniques such as pre-processing, filtering, edge thinning, interest point extraction, and key-descriptor matching, in order to enhance the matching accuracy and the processing speed. The proposed method utilizes various characteristics, such as the different geometry of image acquisition and the different radiometric characteristics, of the multi-sensor images. In addition, the suggested method uses the sensor model to minimize search area and eliminate false-matching points automatically.

This paper presents a new two-stage edge detection algorithm which can give thin edges and can find edges between low contrast regions. In the first stage, the potential edge points are obtained using the proposed edge operator which is motivated by the concept of the E filter. And in the second stage, the real edge points adre detected by comparing the potential edge values with the lically adaptive threshold values of the corresponding potential edge points and by testing whether the potential edge points are zero-crossing points or not. It is shown quantitatively that the proposed algorithm can find edges effectively in an image with impulse noise, and also the results of applying the proposed algorithm to real images are presented.

In this paper, we propose a self-localization algorithm using vertical line segments. Indoor environment is consist of horizontal and vertical line features such as doors, furniture, and so on. From the input image, vertical line edges are detected by an edge operator, Then, line segments are obtained by projecting edge image vertically and detecting local maximum from the projected histogram. From the relation of horizontal position of line segments and the location of the robot, nonlinear equations are come out Localization is done by solving the equations by using Newton's method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm using one camera is simple and applicable to indoor environment.

In this study, a vision system with image processing method have been introduced to find the edge radius of curvature. It was applied to inspect the edge quality of the deburring process product with brush grinding. Size of data was found to be critical in calculating the radius of curvature. Results using laser measurement system were compared.

Image processing was used to recognize parts at various disposition. Non-transpatent tachometer panel for automobile and semi-transparent panel have been used as test specimen. Laplacian filter and various threshold values have been applied for preprocessing and edge following algorithm has been applied. Series of length data between edges have been generated from each image and compared using cross correlation coefficient. The result using cross correlation coefficient. The result using both edge following and cross correlation coefficient was proven to be the best fit for the proposed parts.
