The new visual coder aims to improve the visual quality obtained by the reference SPIHT coder for a given…

Over the years, alternative medicine has carried out numerous systematic studies related to the ophthalmological field, specifically the eye. Studies that propose as support of analysis to the Iridology, which studies the alterations of the iris in correspondence with the organs of the human body. Thus, it presents the opportunity to investigate neuronal diseases related…

Enhancing underwater visualization using hybrid technique is generally employed into oceanic production. Through growing oceanic learning, undersea processing has drawn extra importance owing towards necessary task of picture towards attaining data. Although, suitable to reality of dust-like constituent and beam reduction, undersea descriptions continually experience small contrast and color alteration. In this paper, we estimate…

A 3D image adds realism in viewing experience and can assist in simplifying the graphical displays. A Third dimension supplement to the input can improve pattern recognition, and can be used for 3D scene reconstruction and robot navigation. Recently popularity of 3D hardware is also increased which makes it a hot topic. The production of…

Image stitching is a process of creating a panoramic image by combining multiple images that have overlapping regions of the same scene. It is a challenging topic in image processing, multimedia, and medical applications. The proposed system can be applied in medical applications for scoliosis operations and other long limb operations. The problem of the…

Low contrast images degrade the performance of image processing system. To solve the issue, plenty of image enhancement methods have been proposed. But the methods work properly on the fixed environment or specific images. The methods dependent on fixed image conditions cannot perform image enhancement properly and perspective of smart device users, algorithms including iterative…

This paper deals with the theoretical aspect of bat echolocation and bionics, and image processing-based target recognition and identification methods. The state estimation methods utilizing the linear rustic filters such as fixed gain and Kalman filters are studied and implemented for echolocation bionics for estimating the LOS distance. A complete mathematical modeling and simulation of…

Brain tumor is the abnormal growth of cancerous cells in Brain. The development of automated methods for segmenting brain tumors remains one of the most difficult tasks in medical data processing. Accurate segmentation can improve diagnosis, such as evaluating tumor volume. However, manual segmentation in magnetic resonance data is a laborious task. The main problem…

Although there are many research domains with very good software support and workflow automation, there are even more which do not have it: software development is too expensive to create domain specific applications for every research topic. This leaves many domain experts to work for example with general purpose image processing and statistics tools. Many…

Exploring the ocean underneath has always been an area of great scientific and environmental concern. However, the study of underwater environment was very difficult due to the extreme conditions. Undersea descriptions undergo severe distortion attributed to absorptive as well as scattering properties. Absorption substantially removes illumination, whereas a ray of light redirected in several path…

Automatic speech emotion recognition (SER) techniques based on acoustic analysis show high confusion between certain emotional categories. This study used an indirect approach to provide insights into the amplitude-frequency characteristics of different emotions in order to support the development of future, more efficiently differentiating SER methods. The analysis was carried out by transforming short 1-second…

Early detection and treatment of cervical cancer is crucial to patients’ recovery with a reported success rate of nearly 100%.
