A Fast Prediction of the OCR Results Based on Binary Image Quality Assessment Methods
PublikacjaSince the first step of the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) procedure is usually image binarization and the execution of the OCR process takes longer time than image quality assessment (IQA) of binary images, a fast prediction of the OCR results before text recognition would be interesting for non-uniformly illuminated document images, also for applications in mobile devices. Since IQA methods for binary images usually require...

Application of Binary Image Quality Assessment Methods to Predict the Quality of Optical Character Recognition Results
PublikacjaOne of the continuous challenges related to the growing popularity of mobile devices and embedded systems with limited memory and computational power is the development of relatively fast methods for real-time image and video analysis. One such example is Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which is usually too complex for such devices. Considering that images captured by cameras integrated into mobile devices may be acquired...

A Fast and Accurate Prediction of Distortions in DCT-Based Lossy Image Compression
PublikacjaSince the number of acquired images and their size have the tendency to increase, their lossy compression is widely applied for their storage, transfer, and dissemination. Simultaneously with providing a relatively large compression ratio, lossy compression produces distortions that are inevitably introduced and have to be controlled. The properties of these distortions depend on several factors such as image properties, the...

A Hybrid Method for Objective Quality Assessment of Binary Images
PublikacjaIn the paper, a novel hybrid method for an automatic quality assessment of binary images is proposed that may be useful, e.g., for computationally limited embedded systems or Optical Character Recognition applications. Since the quality of binary images used as the input for further image analysis strongly influences the obtained results, a reliable evaluation of their quality is a crucial element for the validation of such...

A method supporting fault-tolerant optical text recognition from video sequences recorded with handheld cameras
PublikacjaIn the paper a method supporting the optical character recognition from video sequences recorded with cameras without good stabilization is proposed. Due to the presence of various distortions, such as motion blur, shadows, lossy compression artifacts, auto-focusing errors, etc., the quality of individual video frames, e.g., recorded by a smartphone camera, differs noticeably, influencing the results of text recognition, causing...

Adaptive Binarization of Metal Nameplate Images Using the Pixel Voting Approach
PublikacjaIn the paper, an application of the recently proposed approach to hybrid image binarization based on pixel voting is considered for industrial images. Since such images typically contain the text embossed or engraved in metal nameplates, often non-uniformly illuminated, a proper binarization of such images is usually much harder than for scanned document images, or even for the photos of text documents. Assuming that no single...

Analysis of Image Preprocessing and Binarization Methods for OCR-Based Detection and Classification of Electronic Integrated Circuit Labeling
PublikacjaAutomatic recognition and classification of electronic integrated circuits based on optical character recognition combined with the analysis of the shape of their housings are essential to machine vision methods supporting the production of electronic parts, especially small-volume ones in the through-hole technology, characteristic of printed circuit boards. Since such methods utilize binary images, applying appropriate image...

Efficiency Increasing of No-reference Image Quality Assessment in UAV Applications
PublikacjaUnmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imaging is a dynamically developing field, where the effectiveness of imaging applications highly depends on quality of the acquired images. No-reference image quality assessment is widely used for quality control and image processing management. However, there is a lack of accuracy and adequacy of existing quality metrics for human visual perception. In this paper, we demonstrate that this...

A Visual Feedback for Water-Flow Monitoring in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems
PublikacjaThe optimal water flow in fish breeding tanks is one of the crucial elements necessary for the well-being and proper growth of fish, such as salmon or trout. Considering the round tanks and the uneven distribution of water-flow velocity, ensuring a nearly optimal flow is an important task that may be performed using various sensors installed to monitor the water flow. Nevertheless, observing the rapid development of video analysis...

Combined No-Reference Image Quality Metrics for Visual Quality Assessment Optimized for Remote Sensing Images
PublikacjaNo-reference image quality assessment is one of the most demanding areas of image analysis for many applications where the results of the analysis should be strongly correlated with the quality of an input image and the corresponding reference image is unavailable. One of the examples might be remote sensing since the transmission of such obtained images often requires the use of lossy compression and they are often distorted,...

Erroneous Vehicle Velocity Estimation Correction Using Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) Sensors
PublikacjaMagnetic field sensors installed in the road infrastructure can be used for autonomous traffic flow parametrization. Although the main goal of such a measuring system is the recognition of the class of vehicle and classification, velocity is the essential parameter for further calculation and it must be estimated with high reliability. In-field test campaigns, during actual traffic conditions, showed that commonly accepted velocity...

Intelligent Lossy Compression Method of Providing a Desired Visual Quality for Images of Different Complexity
PublikacjaLossy compression plays a vital role in modern digital image processing for producing a high compression ratio. However, distortion is unavoidable, which affects further image processing and must be handled with care. Providing a desired visual quality is an efficient approach for reaching a trade-off between introduced distortions and compression ratio; it aims to control the visual quality of the decompressed images and make...

Quality Control for the BPG Lossy Compression of Three-Channel Remote Sensing Images
PublikacjaThis paper deals with providing the desired quality in the Better Portable Graphics (BPG)-based lossy compression of color and three-channel remote sensing (RS) images. Quality is described by the Mean Deviation Similarity Index (MDSI), which is proven to be one of the best metrics for characterizing compressed image quality due to its high conventional and rank-order correlation with the Mean Opinion Score (MOS) values. The...
