The physical nature of our scheme is that the different wavelength beams are separated in free space by an optical media according to the slow light or dispersion principle. Meanwhile, the equality of the optical distance of the two light arms is not violated. The photon correlation is achieved by the rotating ground glass plate(RGGP) and spatial light modulator(SLM), respectively. Our work shows that a monochromic ghost image can be obtained in the case of RGGP. More importantly, the position(or distance) of the object can be ascertained by the color of the image. Thus, the imaging and ranging processes are combined as one process for the first time to the best of our knowledge. In the case of SLM, we can obtain a colored image regardless of where the object is.展开更多

It is applied toconventional interpolations to get sharp images. Edgedetection is performed after images are interpolatedby linear interpolations. To meet the two conditionsset for DMIE, i. e., no abrupt changes and no over-boosting, different boosting rate should be used inadjusting pixel intensities. When the boosting rate isdetermined by using the distance from enhancedpixels to nearest edges, edge-oriented imageenhancement is obtained. By using Erosion technique,the range for pixel intensity adiustment is set.Over-enhancement is avoided by limiting the pixel iutensities in enhancement within the range. A unifled linear-time algoritiml for disance transform is adopted to deal with the calculation of Euelidean distance of the images.Its computation complexity is 0(N).After the preparation,i.e.,distance transforming and erosion,the images get more and more sharpened while no over.boosting.Occurs by repeating the enhancement procedure ,The simplicity of the enhancement operation makes DMIE suitable for enhancement rate adjusting展开更多

An improvement upon traditional Hausdorff-distance-based image registration method is proposed, which consists of the following two aspects. One is to estimate transformation parameters between two images from the distributions of geometric property differences instead of establishing explicit feature correspondences. This procedure is treated as the pre-registration. The other aspect is that mean Hausdorff distance computation is replaced with the analysis of the second difference of generalized Hausdorff distance so as to eliminate the redundant points. Experimental results show that our registration method outperforms the method based on mean Hausdorff distance. The registration errors are noticeably reduced in the partial matching images.展开更多
