Download or read book Robust and Effective Techniques for Multi modal Image Registration written by Guohua Lv and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image registration is the process of estimating the optimal transformation that aligns different imaging data into spatial correspondences. Multi-modal image registration is to register images which are captured by different types of imaging devices. This thesis aims to develop robust and effective techniques for multi-modal image registration. The challenge lies in the fact that the visual appearance may differ a lot between corresponding parts of multi-modal images. We have been exploring ways by investigating local image features.Two main contributions have been made in this thesis.First, we have improved existing mono-modal and multi-modal image registration techniques by better utilizing gradient information. For a feature-based image registration technique, its effectiveness to a large extent relies on the discrimination power of local descriptors. In the existing techniques, gradient information is utilized in a number of ways for building local descriptors. We have analyzed the limitations of these techniques, and have proposed a technique for better utilizing gradient information. As a result, the discrimination power of local descriptors has been enhanced, leading to a better registration performance.Second, we have developed a new multi-modal image registration technique, which has the following innovations:1. We have proposed a technique to detect the intrinsic structural similarity in multi-modal microscopic images. This is achieved by exploiting the characteristics in intensity relationships between the Red-Green-Blue color channels.2. To increase robustness to content differences, contour-based corners are used, instead of intensity-based keypoints in a state-of-the-art multi-modal image registration technique.3. We have proposed a new local descriptor to better represent corners.4. We have proposed a new way of scale estimation by making use of geometric relationships between corner triplets in two images.The proposed multi-modal image registration technique achieves greater robustness in terms of both content differences and scale differences as compared to the state-of-the-art multi-modal image registration technique.

Download or read book Application of Chaos and Fractals to Computer Vision written by Michael E. Farmer and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015-07-23 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a thorough investigation of the application of chaos theory and fractal analysis to computer vision. The field of chaos theory has been studied in dynamical physical systems, and has been very successful in providing computational models for very complex problems ranging from weather systems to neural pathway signal propagation. Computer vision researchers have derived motivation for their algorithms from biology and physics for many years as witnessed by the optical flow algorithm, the oscillator model underlying graphical cuts and of course neural networks. These algorithms are very helpful for a broad range of computer vision problems like motion segmentation, texture analysis and change detection. The contents of this book include chapters in biological vision systems, foundations of chaos and fractals, behavior of images and image sequences in phase space, mathematical measures for analyzing phase space, applications to pre-attentive vision and applications to post-attentive vision. This book is intended for graduate students, upper division undergraduates, researchers and practitioners in image processing and computer vision. The readers will develop a solid understanding of the concepts of chaos theory and their application to computer vision. Readers will be introduced to a new way of thinking about computer vision problems from the perspective of complex dynamical systems. This new approach will provide them a deeper understanding of the various phenomena present in complex image scenes.

Download or read book An Effective Technique for Multi modal Image Registration written by Md Tanvir Hossain and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image registration brings two images into alignment despite any initial misalignment. Multi-modal image registration is a special type of registration problem where complexity is added, due to images being captured by different types of imaging devices. For decades, researchers have continued to work on multi-modal image registration. Yet limited attention has been paid to developing local feature descriptors for multi-modal registration, despite their useful performance in general registration problems. We would argue that multi-modal registration can therefore benefit from qualities that are inherent in local techniques.In this thesis, we focus on developing a new multi-modal image registration technique based on local descriptors. We study a range of local feature description techniques, acquire an in-depth understanding of relevant sub-procedures and propose a novel modality invariant feature description technique that can be effectively applied to multi-modal image registration. The proposed technique has four components which are carefully designed to cater for variations in image properties caused by multi-modality as well as to enable finding correspondences with high accuracy under a wide range of transformations.We identify certain properties of multi-modal images, namely gradient and region reversal, which must be addressed appropriately in order to register multi-modal images. The first component of our proposed technique overcomes problems with existing local multi-modal techniques in addressing these properties. The second component comprises strategies to encode gradient profiles that are appropriate for multi-modal registration applications. The third component employs a robust and powerful data fitting technique, namely Hough Transform, in order to achieve high accuracy in multi-modal registration. Our proposed solution is simple, but effective, and enables seamless integration of Hough Transform by overcoming existing technical limitations. The final component incorporates special methodologies to cater for local rotations in input images. Besides evaluating our technique in terms of the accuracy of identified correspondences, we also show that the proposed technique results in less registration error when compared with existing techniques.
Download or read book Image Fusion written by H.B. Mitchell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide a practical introduction to the th- ries, techniques and applications of image fusion. The present work has been designed as a textbook for a one-semester ?nal-year undergraduate, or ?r- year graduate, course in image fusion. It should also be useful to practising engineers who wish to learn the concepts of image fusion and apply them to practical applications. In addition, the book may also be used as a supp- mentary text for a graduate course on topics in advanced image processing. The book complements the author’s previous work on multi-sensor data [1] fusion by concentrating exclusively on the theories, techniques and app- cations of image fusion. The book is intended to be self-contained in so far as the subject of image fusion is concerned, although some prior exposure to the ?eld of computer vision and image processing may be helpful to the reader. Apart from two preliminary chapters, the book is divided into three parts.
