Image fusion is considered an effective enhancing methodology widely included in high-quality imaging systems. Nevertheless, like other enhancing techniques, output quality assessment is made within small sample subjective ...

Images often contain very small and hardly detectable objects or patterns, which can be of grave importance for diagnosis. In this paper we present a new method for aiding medical doctors in diagnosis of such images by ...

In the scientific literature, multiple studies address the application of road extraction methodologies to a particular cartographic dataset. However, it is difficult for any study to perform a more reliable comparison ...

A weighted compressed sensing (WCS) algorithm is proposed for the problem of channelizetl facies reconstruction from pixel-based measurements. This strategy integrates information from: (i) image structure in a transform ...

In this paper we propose a novel method for shape analysis called HTS (Hough Transform Statistics), which uses statistics from Hough Transform space in order to characterize the shape of objects in digital images. Experimental ...

In the last decade, image quality indices have received considerable attention to quantify the dissimilarity between two images. The codispersion coefficient, commonly used in spatial statistics to address the association ...
