Abstract The texture of ground-based nephogram is abundant and multiplicity. Many cloud textures are not as clear as artificial textures. A nephogram enhancement algorithm based on Adaptive Fractional Differential is established to extract the natural texture of visible ground-based cloud image. GrunwaldLentikov (G-L) and Grunwald-Lentikov (R-L) fractional differential operators are applied to the enhancement algorithm of ground-based nephogram. An operator mask based on adaptive differential order is designed. The corresponding mask template is used to process each pixel. The results show that this method can extract image texture and edge details and simplify the process of More >

Abstract In radiography imaging, contrast, sharpness and noise there are three fundamental factors that determine the image quality. Removing noise while preserving and sharpening image contours is a complicated task particularly for images with low contrast like radiography. This paper proposes a new anisotropic diffusion method for radiography image enhancement. The proposed method is based on the integration of geometric parameters derived from the local pixel intensity distribution in a nonlinear diffusion formulation that can concurrently perform the smoothing and the sharpening operations. The main novelty of the proposed anisotropic diffusion model is the ability to More >
