The image restoration method entitled Wiener deconvolution intervenes to improve the quality of images subjected to the degradation effects of both blur and noise. The effectiveness whose this method has demonstrated in this kind of situations, obviously depends on the regularization term that has a direct impact on the expected result. This regularization term requires a priori knowledge of the power spectral density of the original image that is rarely accessible, hence the estimation of approximate values can affect the image quality. An amelioration has been brought to this method, which consists to iterate the Wiener filter to estimate the power spectral density of the original image. The optimization of the iteration count of the iterative Wiener filter by genetic approach leads to the better result.Index Terms-Image restoration, Wiener deconvolution, power spectral density, iterative Wiener filter, genetic algorithm.978-1-4799-7511-2/15/$31.00
In this paper, a segmentation method based on pixel classification and evolution strategies is proposed. Before segmentation, the number of classes is determined by the principle of maximum entropy. The proposed approach is validated on some synthetic and real images and, it shows to be very interesting as decision support in quality control.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
