In this paper, we propose method of generation of depth map using vanishing line and texture. vanishing line is generated by parallel lines in image. For generate vanishing line, show boundary of particular angle through Gabor Filter and extract line through Hough Transform. Initial Depth Map is estimated based on vanisihng line and combine Relative Depth map that generated using Texture Cue. The proposed algorithm advanced due to combine Initial Depth Map and Relative Depth Map.

High-resolution satellite image mosaics are becoming increasingly important in the field of remote sensing image analysis as an essential image processing to create a large image constructed from several smaller images. In this paper, we present an automatic seamline extraction technique and the procedure to generate a mosaic image by this technique. For more effective seamline extraction in the overlap region of adjacent images, an NDVI-based seamline extraction technique is developed, which takes advantage of the computational time and memory. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI) is an index of plant "greeness" or photosynthetic activity that is employed to extract the initial seamline. The NDVI can divide into manmade region and natural region. The cost image is obtained by the canny edge detector and the buffering technique is used to extract the ranging cost image. The seamline is extracted by applying the Dijkstra algorithm to a cost image generated through the labeling process of the extracted edge information. Histogram matching is also conducted to alleviate radiometric distortion between adjacent images acquired at different time. In the experimental results using the KOMPSAT-2/3 satellite imagery, it is confirmed that the proposed method greatly reduces the visual discontinuity caused by geometric difference of adjacent images and the computation time.

We propose a novel image inpainting method composed of two parts: band matching and seamless cloning. In band matching, a band enclosing the boundary of a missing region is compared to those from the other parts of the image. The inner area of the minimum difference band is then copied to the missing region. Even though this band matching results in successful inpainting in many practical applications, brightness discontinuity (a seam) may appear between the filled missing region and its neighborhood. We apply seamless cloning to remove such discontinuity between the two regions. However, since this basic method using one patch may not deal with cases where there are abrupt changes of color or brightness along the boundary, we furthermore devise one more step: target sub-division. The target area is subdivided into small sub-areas, and the band matching and seamless cloning are applied to each of them. The multiple results from the sub-division are then ordered according to inpainting quality, which is measured based on the edge map or discontinuity map along the boundary band.

X-ray image is a widely used to medical examination, airport security and cargo inspection. However, X-ray images contain many visual noise, which interrupt image analysis. Consequently, it is primary importance to reduce noises of X-ray image. In this paper, we present a improved denoise technique for x-ray image using pixel value and range weights. First, we denoise a x-ray image using bilateral filter. Next, we detect a edge region of the original x-ray image. If a denoised pixel belongs to the edge region, we calculate weighting values of original x-ray image and denoised x-ray image in $3{\times}3$ neighboring pixels and compute the cost value to determine the boundary pixel value. Finally, the pixel value having minimum cost is determined as the pixel value of the denoised x-ray image. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves good performance in terns of PSNR comparison and subjective visual quality.

This paper presents the experimental setup for autonomous navigation of a robotic vehicle for touring university campus. The robotic vehicle is developed for navigation of specific areas such as university campus or play parks. The robotic vehicle can carry two passengers to travel short distances. For the robotic vehicle to navigate autonomously the specific distance from the main gate to the administrative building in the university, the experimental setup for SLAM is presented. As an initial step, a simple method of following the line detected by a single camera is implemented for the partial area. The central line on the pavement colored with two kinds, red and yellow, is detected by image processing, and the robotic vehicle is commanded to follow the line. Experimental studies are conducted to demonstrate the performance of navigation as a possible touring vehicle.

In this paper we propose an image-based approach, which is different from the traditional flow cytometric method to detect shape of apoptosis cells. This method can overcome the defects of cytometry and give precise recognition of apoptosis cells. In this work K-means clustering was used to do the rough segmentation and an active contour model, called 'snake' was used to do the precise edge detection. And then some features were extracted including physical feature, shape descriptor and texture features of the apoptosis cells. Finally a Mahalanobis distance classifier classifies the segmentation images as apoptosis and non-apoptosis cell.

We proposed a new directional edge based interpolation, DEBI, by combining two weighted directional information to reduce blurred edges and annoying artifacts. Four isotropic gradient masks are employed in defining edge directions and they are proven to hold a first order derivative relation with respect to a rotating coordinate. Two minimum gradients among four absolute directional results are shown to be sufficient to describe slant edges efficiently. Compared with widely used bilinear and bicubic interpolation methods, the proposed algorithm results in a noticeable improvement along edge area.
