Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatic Hand Gestures: Fingertips Detection Based on Segmented ImagesAhmad Yahya Dawod, Md Jan Nordin, Junaidi AbdullahFingertips detection is important for recognition of static gesture in sign language. This paper presents a new method that is based on YCbCr colour space and skeletonization for fingertips detection towards gesture segmentation and recognition. The method begins with the conversion of an image in RGB colour space into YCbCr colour space. Then, the chrominance Cb and Cr are extracted … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 4 Feb 2016 · 7,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTIMODAL RETINAL IMAGE REGISTRATION USING RANSAC MATCHING AND GRADIENT ICP ALGORITHMP. Pradeepa, Ila. VennilaMultimodal retinal imaging is an important facet of the diagnosis and therapy of retinal disorders like retinopathy, occlusion. Many imaging techniques for multimodal retinal images are developing in the recent years. These novel developments are subjected to a tradeoff between the computational time and effective registration. This study aims at developing a new algorithm based on the RANSAC matching and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEDGE PRESERVED IMAGE COMPRESSION USING EXTENDED SHEARLET TRANSFORMS. Thayammal, D. SelvathiThe motivation of the proposed compression method is to reduce the bit rate for image transmission or memory requirement for image storage while maintaining image quality. The edges are one of the prominent features in an image and they are essential for maintaining image quality. JPEG compression standards like JPEG98 and JPEG2000 produce visual artifacts in reconstructed image at low … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractADDITIVE AND MULTIPLICATIVE NOISE REMOVAL BASED ON ADAPTIVE WAVELET TRANSFORMATION USING CYCLE SPINNINGAsem Khmag, Abd Rahman Ramli, Syed Abdul Rahman Al-Haddad, Shaiful Jahari Bin HashimThe need for image restoration is encountered in many practical applications. For instance, distortion due to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) or in some cases the multiplicative (speckle) one can be caused by poor quality image acquisition. Wavelet denoising attempts to remove these types of noise present in the signal while preserving the signal characteristics, regardless of its frequency content. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPECKLE REDUCTION IN ULTRASOUND IMAGES USING NEIGHSHRINK AND BILATERAL FILTERINGR. Vanithamani, G. UmamaheswariSpeckle is a random multiplicative noise which obscures the perception and extraction of fine details in ultrasound images and speckle reduction is necessary to improve the visual quality of ultrasound images for better diagnosis. This study aims at introducing an algorithm by hybridizing bilateral filter with NeighShrink. The bilateral filter is applied before decomposition and after reconstruction of the image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2013 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAUTOMATIC SEGMENTATION OF SKIN LESIONS USING HISTOGRAM THRESHOLDINGNidhal Khdhair El Abbadi, Abbas Hussien MiryAutomatic lesion segmentation is an important part of computer-based image analysis of pigmented skin lesions. Currently, there is a great interest in the development of Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems for dermoscopic images. The segmentation step is one of the most important ones, since its accuracy determines the eventual success or failure of a CAD system. This study introduced new method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2013 · 7,559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction and Classification of Blood Cells Using Artificial Neural NetworkMagudeeswaran Veluchamy, Karthikeyan Perumal, Thirumurugan PonuchamyProblem statement: One method of evaluating the clinical status is counting of cell types based on features that it contains. There is a need for a rapid, reproducible method, superior to human inspection and for the classification of cells. For solving these problems, quantitative digital-image analysis is applied and a novel method for classifications of affected blood cells from normal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSegmentation of Medical Image using Clustering and Watershed AlgorithmsM.C. Jobin Christ, R.M.S. ParvathiProblem statement: Segmentation plays an important role in medical imaging. Segmentation of an image is the division or separation of the image into dissimilar regions of similar attribute. In this study we proposed a methodology that integrates clustering algorithm and marker controlled watershed segmentation algorithm for medical image segmentation. The use of the conservative watershed algorithm for medical image analysis … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 22 Oct 2011 · 8,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Boundary Detection of Wall Motion in Two-dimensional Echocardiography ImagesFaten Abed Ali Dawood, Rahmita Wirza Rahmat, Mohd Zamrin Dimon et al.Problem statement: Medical image analysis is a particularly difficult problem because the inherent characteristics of these images, including low contrast, speckle noise, signal dropouts and complex anatomical structures. An accurate analysis of wall motion in Two-dimensional echocardiography images is “important clinical diagnosis parameter for many cardiovascular diseases”. A challenge most researchers faced is how to speed up the clinical decisions … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 15 Jul 2011 · 8,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSkin Images SegmentationAli El-ZaartProblem statement: Image segmentation is a fundamental step in many applications of image processing. Skin cancer has been the most common of all new cancers detected each year. At early stage detection of skin cancer, simple and economic treatment can cure it mostly. An accurate segmentation of skin images can help the diagnosis to define well the region of the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Jul 2010 · 7,023 accessesView PDFCite
