1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Introduction to broad area of research
Image processing:
Image processing is a methodology to perform some operations on an image, so as to urge an enhanced image or to extract some helpful data from it. It is treated as an area of signal processing where both the input and output signals are images. Images are portrayed as two dimensional matrix, and we are applying already having signal processing strategies to input matrix. Images processing finds applications in several fields like photography, satellite imaging, medical imaging, and image compression, just to name a few. Basically Image processing includes the following steps:
• Reading the image via image acquisition tools like cameras, caners etc.
• Analysing and manipulating the acquired image to have enhanced quality and locate the data of interest;
• Output in which result can be altered image or report that is based on image analysis.
Originally image processing is proposed for space exploration and biomedical field. But later on with the increase in use of digital images in everybody’s lives it considered as powerful tool for arbitrarily manipulating images to gain useful information. It defined as the means of conversion between human visual system and digital imaging devices.The main purpose of image processing are listed below:
1. Visualization - Observe the objects which are not visible.
2. Image sharpening and restoration - To increase quality of image.
3. Image retrieval – finding
DIGITAL IMAGES are electronic snapshots taken of a scene or scanned from documents, such as photographs, manuscripts, printed texts, and artwork. The digital image is sampled and mapped as a grid of dots or picture elements (pixels). Each pixel is assigned a total value (black, white, shades of gray or color), which is represented in binary code (zeros and ones). The binary digits ("bits") for each pixel are stored in a sequence by a computer and often reduced to a mathematical analog version for display or printing. http://preservationtutorial.library.cornell.edu/intro/intro-01.html
Digital Photography has become one of the most simplified and effective way of capturing and using the images. Digital images are very high in quality and also with the ease of viewing, editing and transferring it to any computers or mobile devices making it a very cost effective way of managing the images (Kornhaber, Betihavas, & Baber, 2015).
In accession to the binary images, the proposed method may be tested on discrete color images also. These type of
The goal of the feature extraction and selection is to reduce the dimension of the data. In this experiment the dimension of the AVIRIS and HYDICE images reduced to 20 from 220 and 191 respectively using PCA. From the PCA analysis we can see that image of principal component 1 is brightest and sharpest than other PCA image which is illustrated in figure-2.
Why I choose this image to work up and do analysis of. Well as a photographer it touches on a theme that I and other photographers must deal with. The idea that someone can get something for free. Just because we are photographers or even a regular artist that we are all just dying for more exposure and are willing to do whatever you want for some “good exposure”. I don’t think that most folks are all the self-severing, they are just unaware how much time and money goes into producing a good image. And suffer from this misbelief that this is just someone’s hobby and not their lively hood. Form the text of “trust me I am a professional Photographer I don’t work for free” and with the camera, lens, and SD cards in the middle. It
The basic principle of this algorithm is to recognize the input paper currency. First of all acquired the image from a particular source. As in this thesis we use for reference images. System read the particular image. Then resize the image. After that the color separator convert the image into RGB to Gray scale and then in binary image. After that the system use color noise median filter. The currency length detector detects the length of the currency. Using the feature extraction techniques the system detect the particular feature of that currency and then the system use pattern matching algorithm to math that particular feature. The input image match with particular database image and according to that we find the currency. In this way this thesis design a automatic system in which we can recognized the paper currency.
A series of experiments was performed on glass beads and natural clean dry sands under the objective of the current work of performing parametric studies. Therefore, new techniques and methods were utilized to predict the gradation of the natural cohesionless silica sands tested in addition to the conventional geotechnical laboratory experiments, which were carried out to predict the mechanical characteristics of such soils. Moreover, ideal laboratory simulations for the SPT were performed under several particular relative densities, loading conditions, and stress-strain controlled boundaries. Additionally, the obtained results from such series of experiments were stored in digital forms for further processing and analyses.
It is used to correct defects illumination, eliminating noise and small spots and enhance the contours and contrast as much as possible without degrading the lesion.Preprocessing of the image is concerns with changing the colour image into gray scale image, removing the dark corners in the image and filtering to remove any artefacts in the image.
Texture is one of the crucial primitives in human vision and texture features have been used to identify contents of images. Examples are identifying crop fields and mountains from aerial image domain. Moreover, texture can be used to describe contents of images, such as clouds, bricks, hair, etc. Both identifying and describing characteristics of texture are accelerated when texture is integrated with color, hence the details of the important features of image objects for human vision can be provided. One crucial distinction between color and texture features is that color is a point, or pixel, property, whereas texture is a local-neighborhood property. The main motivation for using texture is the identifying and describing

• Feature detection which is detecting a feature of interest on a reference image and a sensed image
The outline of the stages of the image processing pipeline is; realign (affine), skull scripting, statistical edge detector (multi-scale, multi-modal), extract statistical features, use it to build SVM. The robustness of implementation will be tested with Pixel Correspondence Metric (PCM). The same pipeline will be followed for an unsupervised approach using leave one out (LOOCV). The filter size, parametric and non-parametric features like mean, variance, rank, U Mann Whitney test etc will be evaluated and an optimal performer will be selected.
For the fast and cost effective production of patient diagnosis, various image processing techniques or software has been developed to get desired information from medical images. Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is a type of leukemia which is more common in children. The term ‘Acute‘means that leukemia can progress quickly and if not treated may lead to fatal death within few months. Due to its non specific nature of the symptoms and signs of ALL leads wrong diagnosis. Even hematologist finds it difficult to classify the leukemia cells, there manual classification of blood cells is not only time consuming but also inaccurate. Therefore, early identification of leukemia yields in providing the appropriate treatment to the patient. As a solution
The recent development ensures the popularity of CBIR, since it has been applied in many real world applications such as life sciences, environmental and health care, digital libraries and social media such as facebook, youtube, etc. CBIR understands and analyzes the visual content of the images [20]. It represents an image using the renowned visual information such as color, texture, shape, etc [11, 12]. These are often referred as basic features of the image, which undergoes lot of variations according to the need and specifications of the image [7-9]. Since the image acquisition varies with respect to illumination, angle of acquisition, depth, etc, it is a challenging task to define a best limited set of features to describe the entire image library.
science research. However, structures may not be clearly shown in the resulted images, due to various reasons like
