Conversely, intensity a will appear like a dark dot. • If either Pa or Pb is zero, the impulse noise is called unipolar. 12.11.2013 12.11.2013 • Example: Original test image 12.11.2013 12.11.2013 12.11.2013 Periodic Noise • Periodic noise in an image arises typically from electrical or electromechanical interference during image acquisition. • It can be reduced significantly by using frequency domain filtering 12.11.2013 Estimation of Noise Parameters • The parameters of periodic noise can be estimated by inspection of the Fourier spectrum of the image. • Periodic noise tends to produce frquency spikes, which are detectable even by visual analysis • Automated analysis is possible if the noise spikes are either exceptionally pronounced, or when knowledge is available about the general location of the frequency components of the interference. 12.11.2013 • It is often necessary to estimate the noise probability density functions for a particular imaging arrangement. • When images already generated by a sensor are available, it may be possible to estimate the parameters of the probability density functions from small patches of reasonably constant background intensity. The shape of the histogram identifies the closest PDF match 12.11.2013 Consider a subimage denoted by S, and let psi( z ), i 0, 1, ..., L -1, • If thedenoteimage thestripe probability(subimage estimates) S is ofgiven the ,intensities of the pixels in S. • CalculateThe meanmean andand variancevariance of ofthe intensity pixels inlevels S: L1 z zi p s( z i ) i0 L1 22 and (zi z ) p s ( z i ) i0 where S denote a stripe and pS (zi ) , i = 0,1,2,...,L −1, denote the probability estimates of the intensities of the pixels in S • The shape of the histogram identifies the closest probability density function match. • The Gaussian probability density function is completely specified by these two parameters. 12.11.2013 Restoration in the Presence of Noise Only ̶ Spatial Filtering • When theNoise only degradationmodel without present degradation in an image is noise, g( x , y ) f ( x , y ) ( x , y ) and G( u , v ) F ( u , v ) N ( u , v ) • Since the noise terms are unknown, subtracting them from g(x,y ) or G(u,v ) is not a realistic option. 12.11.2013 Mean Filters • Arithmetic mean filter Let Sxy represent the set of coordinates in a rectangle subimageArithmetic window mean of sizefilter m n, centered at ( x , y). 1 f( x , y ) g ( s , t ) mn (,)s t Sxy 12.11.2013 • GeometricGeometricmean meanfilter filter 1 mn f( x , y ) g ( s , t ) (,)s t Sxy • A geometric mean filter achieves smoothing comparable to the arithmetic mean filter, but it tends to lose less image detail in the process. 12.11.2013 • HarmonicHarmonicmean filter mean filter mn f( x , y ) 1 (,)s t Sxy g(,) s t which works well for some types of noise like Gaussian noise and salt noise, but fails for pepper noise. 12.11.2013 • ContraharmonicContraharmonicmean filter mean filter Q1 g(,) s t Q>0 for pepper noise and Q<0 for salt (,)s t Sxy f( x , y ) noise. g(,) s t Q where Q is called the order of the(,)s filter t Sxy. • It is well suited for reducing or eliminating the effects of salt-and-pepper noise. • When Q = 0 , the contraharmonic mean filter reduces to the arithmetic mean filter. • When Q = −1 , the contraharmonic mean filter becomes the harmonic mean filter. 12.11.2013 Example corrupted version with additive Gaussian noise of zero mean and variance of 400. In general, the arithmetic and geometric mean filters are suited for random noise like Gaussian or uniform noise. 12.11.2013 • The positive-order filter did a better job of cleaning the background, at the expense of slightly thinning and blurring the dark areas. • The opposite was true of the negative- order filter. 12.11.2013 The contraharmonic mean filter is well suited for impulse noise, with the disadvantage that it must be known whether the noise is dark or light in order to select Q . 12.11.2013 Order Statistic Filters The median filters are Median filter particularly effective in the presence of both bipolar and unipolar f( x , y ) median g ( s , t ) impulse noise.

Let gr (s,t) represent the remaining mn −d pixels, an alpha-trimmed mean filter is given by Alpha-trimmed mean filter 1 When d = 0 , the alpha-trimmed f( x , y ) g ( s , t ) mean filter is reduced to the mn d r arithmetic mean filter. (,)s t Sxy If d = mn −1 , the alpha-trimmed mean filter becomes a median filter. 12.11.2013 Note that, repeated passes of a median filter will blur the image, so keep the number of passes as low as possible!! 12.11.2013 The min filter did a better job on noise removal, but it removes some white points around the 12.11.2013 border of light objects. 12.11.2013 Adaptive filters • Adaptive filters are capable of performance superior to that of the filters discussed thus far. However, the price paid for improved filtering power is an increase in filter complexity. • The behavior changes based on statistical characteristics of the image inside the filter region defined by the mхn rectangular window. 12.11.2013 Adaptive, Local Noise Reduction Filters Sxy : local region The response of the filter at the center point (x,y) of Sxy is based on four quantities: The mean gives a measure of average intensity in the (a) g( x , y ), the value of the noisy image at ( x , y ); region over which the mean 2 is computed, and the (b) , the variance of the noise corrupting f( x , y ) variance gives a measure of contrast in that region.

  • Digital Image Processing Chapter 5: Image Restoration Concept of Image Restoration
    Digital Image Processing Chapter 5: Image Restoration Concept of Image Restoration Image restoration is to restore a degraded image back to the original image while image enhancement is to manipulate the image so that it is suitable for a specific application. Degradation model: g(x, y) = f (x, y) ∗h(x, y) +η(x, y) where h(x,y) is a system that causes image distortion and η(x,y) is noise. (Images from Rafael C. Gonzalez and Richard E. Wood, Digital Image Processing, 2nd Edition. Concept of Image Restoration g(x, y) = f (x, y) ∗h(x, y) +η(x, y) We can perform the same operations in the frequency domain, where convolution is replaced by multiplication, and addition remains as addition, because of the linearity of the Fourier transform. G(u,v) = F(u,v)H(u,v) + N(u,v) If we knew the values of H and N we could recover F by writing the above equation as N(u,v) F(u,v) = G(u,v) − H(u,v) However, as we shall see, this approach may not be practical. Even though we may have some statistical information about the noise, we will not know the value of n(x,y) or N(u,v) for all, or even any, values. A s we ll, di vidi ng b y H(i, j) will cause diff ulti es if there are values which are close to, or equal to, zero. Noise WdfiibddiihiilWe may define noise to be any degradation in the image signal, caused by external disturbance.

  • The Biharmonic Mean of the Divisors of N
    THE BIHARMONIC MEAN MARCO ABRATE, STEFANO BARBERO, UMBERTO CERRUTI, NADIR MURRU University of Turin, Department of Mathematics Via Carlo Alberto 10, Turin, Italy [email protected], [email protected] [email protected], [email protected] Abstract We briefly describe some well–known means and their properties, focusing on the relationship with integer sequences. In particular, the harmonic numbers, de- riving from the harmonic mean, motivate the definition of a new kind of mean that we call the biharmonic mean. The biharmonic mean allows to introduce the bihar- monic numbers, providing a new characterization for primes. Moreover, we highlight some interesting divisibility properties and we characterize the semi–prime biharmonic numbers showing their relationship with linear recurrent sequences that solve certain Diophantine equations. Keyword: arithmetic mean, divisibility, geometric mean, harmonic mean, harmonic numbers, inte- ger sequences. AMS Subject Classification: 11N80, 26E60. 1 INTRODUCTION The need to explore the Nature and establish from direct observations its rules, encouraged the ancient thinkers in finding appropriate mathematical tools, able to extrapolate numerical data. The arithmetic mean is one of the arXiv:1601.03081v1 [math.NT] 12 Jan 2016 oldest quantities introduced for this purpose, in order to find an unique ap- proximate value of some physical quantity from the empirical data. It has been probably used for the first time in the third century B.C., by the ancient Babylonian astronomers, in their studies on the positions and motions of ce- lestial bodies. The mathematical relevance of the arithmetic mean has been enhanced by the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190–120 B.C.).

  • Module 3 Image Restoration and Reconstruction Noise Models
    Module 3 Image Restoration and Reconstruction A Model of the image Degradation/ Restoration Process The degradation process is model ed as a degradation function that, together within a additive noise term ,operates on an input image f(x,y) to produce a degraded image g(x,y),some knowledge about the degradation function H,and some knowledge about the additive noise term ɳ(x,y), the objective of restoration is to obtain an estimate (x,y)of the original image.We want the estimate to be as close as possible to the original input image and, in general, the more we know about H and ɳ,the closer (x,y) will be to f(x,y). If H is a linear,position-invariant process,then the degraded image is given in the spatial domain by g(x,y)=h(x,y)*f(x,y)+ɳ(x,y) Where h(x,y) is the spatial representation of the degradation function and, the symbol “ * “ indicates convolution. We know from the discussion that convolution in the spatial domain is analogous to multiplication in the frequency domain, so we may write the model in an equivalent frequency domain representation: G(u,v) = H(u,v)F(u,v)+N(u,v) Where terms in capital letters are the Fourier transforms of the corresponding terms. Noise Models The principal sources of noise in digital images arise during image acquisition and /or transmission. The performance of imaging sensors is affected by a variety of factors , such as environmental conditions during image acquisition, and by the quality of the sensing elements themselves.

The generalized called Pythagorean regression previously. Here, logarithmic, least-squares problem seeks a line which minimizes the average Heronian, centroidal, identric, Lorentz, and root mean square generalized mean of the square deviations in x and y. The notion of a generalized mean is equivalent to the generating regressions are described for the rst time. Ordinary least- function concept of the previous papers but allows for a more squares regression is shown here to be equivalent to minimum robust understanding and has an already existing literature. or maximum mean regression. Regressions based on weighted Generalized means are applied to the task of constructing arithmetic means of order and weighted geometric means more examples, simplifying the theory, and further classifying generalized least-squares regressions.
