It is very important part of pre-processing for get better results by image processing that get emphasized image by processing of source image. Emphasized image is not only good looking image but clear and sharp image. Emphasized images are used very useful data at contour extraction and image recognition in image processing. It have different image recognition by how much represent a origin scene in row quality image. Present algorithms that get emphasized premier image do not get clear picture of degree that want in various kind of images and there is shortcoming that need much process times being proportional size of picture quality or accumulation degree of histogram. In this paper, we propose method to change distribution chart that pixels occupy in histogram as subsequentness in reflex of various kinds as well as that picture quality reflex method to emphasize so that is suitable in practical use purpose originally of premier. Proposed algorithm re-allot histogram distribution by reverse tracking histogram. Experimental images are same result and take less processing time than histogram equalization.

In general, images captured by the color filter array are compressed after applying demosaicking process. Since this process introduces data redundancy which can reduce coding efficiency, several methods have been proposed to address this problem. While some conventional approachs convert color format to GBR or YUV 4:2:2 format, we propose to use the YCoCg 4:2:2 format to carry out compression. The proposed method shows an average bits reduction of 3.91% and PSNR increase of 0.04dB compared with H.264 YUV 4:2:0 intra-profile prediction method.

This paper describes a technique for detecting the boundary of the optic disk in digital image of the retina using inward and outward curve evolution. This paper offers medical information about glaucoma progresses. For accurate boundary detection, image inpainting based on texture synthesis removes blood vessels crossing the optic disk. For removing noises and preserving boundary of optic disk in image inpainting process, the anisotropic diffusion filtering is necessary. After pre-processing, the optic disk boundary is determined using inward and outward curve evolution. The experimental results show that the algorithm is effective for detection of optic disk boundary.

Image binarization is an important preprocessing to identify objects of interest by dividing pixels into background and objects. Usually binarization methods are classified into global and local thresholding approaches. In this paper, we propose an efficient and adaptive binarization method for the character segmentation by combining both advantages of the global and the local thresholding methods. Experimental results with the korean character images present that the proposed method binarizes character image faster and better than other local binarization methods.

This study aims to design and implement the finger gesture recognizing system that automatically recognizes finger gestures input through a camera and controls the computer. Common CCD cameras were redesigned as infrared light cameras to acquire the images. The recorded images go through the pre-process to find the hand features, the finger gestures are read accordingly, and an event takes place for the follow-up mouse controlling and presentation, and finally the way to control computers is suggested. The finger gesture recognizing system presented in this study has been verified as the next-generation interface to replace the mouse and keyboard for the future information-based units.

In this paper, we propose a new inspection method that applies fuzzy reasoning method considering the difference of brightness and intensity of illumination by bend together. In the preprocessing phase, we compensate the degree of semiconductor images with bilinear interpolation and moment-rotation. Then we use fuzzy reasoning method with the difference of brightness from error region by pattern matching and the difference of intensity of illumination from bends. Then the result is difuzzified and applied to the final inspection process. In experiment which uses 30 real world semiconductors with strait shots and side shots, the proposed method successfully discard the false positive identified by conventional brightness comparison only method without any loss of misidentification.

The TFT-LCD image allows non-uniform illumination variation and that is one of main difficulties of finding defect region. The SQI (self quotient image) has the HPF (high pass filter) shape and is used to reduce low frequency-lightness component. In this paper, we proposed the TFT-LCD defect-enhancement algorithm using characteristics of the SQI, that is the SQI has low-frequency flattening effect and maintains local variation. The proposed method has superior flattening effect and defect-enhancement effect compared with previous the TFT-LCD image preprocessing.

In this paper suggest for methods disease region feature extraction of medical image using wavelet. In the preprocessing, the shape informations of medical image are selected by performing the discrete wavelet transform(DWT) with four level coefficient matrix. In this approach, based on the characteristics of the coefficient matrix, 96 feature parameters are calculated as follows: Firstly. obtaining 32 feature parameters which have the characteristics of low frequency from the parameters according to the horizontal high frequency are calculated from the coefficient matrix of horizontal high frequency. In the third place, 16 vertical feature parameters are also calculated using the same kind of procedure with respect to the vertical high frequency. Finally, 32 feature parameters of diagonal high frequency are obtained from the coefficient matrix of diagonal high frequency. Consequently, 96 feature aprameters extracted. Using suggest algorithm in this paper will, implamentation can automatic recognition system, increasing efficiency of picture achieve communication system.

This paper proposed the method for restorable lossy mage compression using wavelet transformation. In order to increase compression efficiency, this algorithm subbands with the wavelet transformation filter after processing the pre-quantizer on the original images. Then, it quantizes its wavelet coefficients by using the Huffman Coding. Comparing to the JPEG or non pre-quantized images, the reconstructed images by the proposed algorithm showed higher PSNR. By applying pre-quantizing process, it will be possible to control the peak errors and it is also expected to be useful at mass image compressions.
