An important class of color constant image descriptors is based on image derivatives. These derivative-based image descriptors have a major drawback: they are sensitive to changes...
The quality of coded images is often assessed by a subjective test. Usually the viewers get as much time as they need to find a stable result. In video sequences however, the view...
Various methods have been proposed for image enhancement and restoration. The main difficulty is how to enhance the structures uniformly while suppressing the noise without artifa...

Super-resolution is an important but difficult problem in image/video processing. If a video sequence or some training set other than the given low-resolution image is available, ...
This paper copes with the reconstruction of accretionary morphogenesis within a given observation plane from an image depicting successive (typically seasonal or daily) growth str...
This paper proposes an image segmentation model based on the active contour model, the Mumford-Shah functional and the image decomposition process. Generally speaking, the active ...
Natural scene images brought new challenges for a few years and one of them is text understanding over images or videos. Text extraction which consists to segment textual foregrou...
We propose an adaptive lifted discrete wavelet transform to locally adapt the ltering direction to the geometric ow in the image. The proposed approach re nes previous directional...
Although an all-in-focus image can be generated by mosaicking all the best focused regions of a sequence of acquired images taken under different focal settings, an even betterres...
