Image Patches

Image deblurring is a challenging problem in image processing, which aims to reconstruct an original high-quality image from its blurred measurement caused by various factors, for example, imperfect focusing caused by the imaging system or different depths of scene appearing commonly in our daily photos. Recently, sparse representation whose basic idea is to code an image patch as a linear combination of a few atoms chosen out from an over-complete dictionary has shown uplifting results in image deblurring. Based on this and another heart-stirring property called nonlocal self-similarity, some researchers have developed nonlocal sparse regularization models to unify the local sparsity and the nonlocal self-similarity into a variational framework for image deblurring. In such models, the similarity evaluation for searching similar image patches is indispensable and influential in deblurring performance. Though the traditional Euclidean distance is generally a choice as a similarity metric, its application might give rise to inferior performance since it fails to capture the intrinsic structure of image patches. Consequently, in this article, based on structural similarity index and principal component analysis, we propose the nonlocal sparse regularization-based image deblurring with novel similarity criteria called structural similarity distance and principal component analysis-subspace Euclidean distance to improve the accuracy of deblurring. The structural similarity index is commonly used for assessing perceptual image quality, and principal component analysis is pervasively used in pattern recognition and dimensionality reduction. In our comprehensive experiments, the nonlocal sparse regularization-based image deblurring with our novel similarity criteria has achieved higher peak signal-to-noise and favorable consistency with subjective vision perception compared with state-of-the-art deblurring algorithms.

Facial occlusions like sunglasses, masks, caps etc. have severe consequences when reconstructing the partially occluded regions of a facial picture. This paper proposes a novel hybrid machine learning approach for occlusion removal based on Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA), called SSIM_PCA. The proposed system comprises two stages. In the first stage, a Face Similar Matrix (FSM) guided by the Structural Similarity Index Measure is generated to provide the necessary information to recover from the lost regions of the face image. The FSM generates Related Face (RF) images similar to the probe image. In the second stage, these RF images are considered as related information and used as input data to generate eigenspaces using PCA to reconstruct the occluded face region exploiting the relationship between the occluded region and related face images, which contain relevant data to recover from the occluded area. Experimental results with three standard datasets viz. Caspeal-R1, IMFDB, and FEI have proven that the proposed method works well under illumination changes and occlusion of facial images.

This study proposes an image denoising algorithm based on sparse representation and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The proposed algorithm includes the following steps. First, the noisy image is divided into overlapped [Formula: see text] blocks. Second, the discrete cosine transform is applied as a dictionary for the sparse representation of the vectors created by the overlapped blocks. To calculate the sparse vector, the orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm is used. Then, the dictionary is updated by means of the PCA algorithm to achieve the sparsest representation of vectors. Since the signal energy, unlike the noise energy, is concentrated on a small dataset by transforming into the PCA domain, the signal and noise can be well distinguished. The proposed algorithm was implemented in a MATLAB environment and its performance was evaluated on some standard grayscale images under different levels of standard deviations of white Gaussian noise by means of peak signal-to-noise ratio, structural similarity indexes, and visual effects. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed denoising algorithm achieves significant improvement compared to dual-tree complex discrete wavelet transform and K-singular value decomposition image denoising methods. It also obtains competitive results with the block-matching and 3D filtering method, which is the current state-of-the-art for image denoising.

AbstractThe present work aims at studying five Indian coals and their solvent extracted clean coal products using Py-GCMS analysis and correlating the characterization data using theoretical principal component analysis. The pyrolysis products of the original coals and the super clean coals were classified as mono-, di- and tri-aromatics, while other prominent products that were obtained included cycloalkanes, n-alkanes, and alkenes ranging from C10–C29. The principal component analysis is a dimensionality reduction technique that reduced the number of input variables in the characterization dataset and gave inferences on the relative composition of constituent compounds and functional groups and structural insights based on scores and loading plots which were consistent with the experimental observations. ATR-FTIR studies confirmed the reduced concentration of ash in the super clean coals and the presence of aromatics. The Py-GCMS data and the ATR-FTIR spectra led to the conclusion that the super clean coals behaved similarly for both coking and non-coking coals with high aromatic concentrations as compared to the raw coal. Neyveli lignite super clean coal was found to show some structural similarity with the original coals, whereas the other super clean coals showed structural similarity within themselves but not with their original coal samples confirming the selective action of the e,N solvent in solubilizing the polycondensed aromatic structures in the coal samples.

Tahap awal yang dilakukan dalam rangka pembentukan populasi ikan gurami cepat tumbuh adalah koleksi dan karakterisasi populasi-populasi ikan gurami yang akan digunakan sebagai sumber genetik pembentukan varietas tersebut. Kegiatan ini dilakukan untuk mengevaluasi keragaman morfologi dan hubungan kekerabatan empat populasi ikan gurami, yaitu Jambi (J), Kalimantan Selatan (K), Majalengka (M), dan Tasikmalaya (T). Metode truss morfometrik digunakan untuk karakterisasi morfologi dilanjutkan dengan analisis komponen utama (principal component analysis) dan analisis pengelompokan (cluster analysis). Hasil karakterisasi menunjukkan bahwa diagram pencar populasi ikan gurami tanpa melihat jenis kelamin menunjukkan adanya pengelompokan populasi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok pertama adalah persilangan JxM dan MxK, sedangkan kelompok kedua terdiri atas persilangan JxK, KxJ, TxJ, KxM, MxJ, KxT, galur murni KxK, JxJ, MxM, dan TxT. Hal tersebut terjadi pula pada populasi jantan. Populasi betina menunjukkan JxK dan MxK terpisah berdasarkan karakter A2 (dahi-pangkal sirip punggung) dan A3 (pangkal sirip punggung-pangkal sirip perut). Indeks kesamaan tertinggi dalam 12 populasi diperoleh pada populasi Jambi dan Majalengka berturut-turut sebesar 94,00% dan 92,00%; sedangkan indeks kesamaan terendah diperoleh pada populasi TJ sebesar 72,00%. Ikan gurami ukuran konsumsi terdapat empat kelompok besar berdasarkan bentuk badannya. Dua kelompok pada galur murni menunjukkan populasi galur murni Kalimantan, Majalengka, dan Tasikmalaya kekerabatannya dekat, akan tetapi dengan Jambi memiliki kekerabatan yang jauh. Dua kelompok lainnya pada populasi persilangan, yaitu: persilangan JxM dan MxK dan kelompok lainnya adalah persilangan KxJ, KxM, JxK, TxJ, MxJ, dan KxT. Populasi galur murni dan persilangan memiliki jarak genetik yang jauh, sehingga populasi galur murni dan persilangan itu berbeda.The first step in breeding program towards generating fast-growing strain of giant gourami is the collection and characterization of giant gourami populations have been used as a genetic source. Giant gourami had been collected from South Kalimantan, Jambi, Majalengka, and Tasikmalaya. The aim of this experiment was to determine the morphological diversity among these collected populations using truss morphometric method. Principal component analysis followed by cluster analysis were used to identify the pattern of morphological variability among populations and varieties. The results showed that dendrogram populations of giant gourami regardless of gender showed a grouping of some of the population into two groups: the first group was J×M and M×K crosses, while the second population consisted of: Jambi Kalimantan (J×K), Kalimantan Jambi (K×J), Tasikmalaya Jambi (T×J), Kalimantan Majalengka (K×M), Majalengka Jambi (M×J), Kalimantan Tasikmalaya (K×T), purebred Kalimantan (K×K), Jambi (J×J), Majalengka (M×M), and Tasikmalaya (T×T). This was true for the male population. Female population showed J×K and M×K apart, the difference lies in the character of the forehead-base of the dorsal fin (A2) and the base of the dorsal fin-fin base stomach (A3). The highest similarity index was found Jambi (94.00%) Majalengka (92.00%) populations, while the lowest similarity index was T×J (72.00%). At market size of the consumption of giant gourami there are four major groups, based on the shape of the body. Two groups on pure strains showed a population of pure lines Kalimantan, Majalengka, and Tasikmalaya close kinship, but Jambi had a distant kinship. Two other groups in the population crosses, namely: cross J×M and M×K and the other group was a cross K×J, M×K, J×K, T×J, M×J, and K×T. The population of pure lines and crosses had a genetic distance away, so that the population of pure lines and crosses were different.

Abstract Backround: Thanks to its ecological and geographical location, Turkey is the homeland of many fruit species and allows many fruit species to be grown. Hawthorn, which is understood to be important in human health and nutrition, is one of these fruit types. This study was carried out to identify morphological, biochemical and molecular genetic variations of 22 hawthorn genotypes belonging to three different species collected from Kayseri province. Methods and Results: Morphological, biochemical and molecular marker (ISSR) techniques were used to determine genetic diversity. The fruit and leaf characteristics of the genotypes showed differences. Among the biochemical properties of the genotypes, the antioxidant activity ranged from 23.13–61.59%, the total flavonoid content ranged from 16.63 to 57.22 mg QE/100 g, and the total phenolic content ranged from 277.28 to 310.80 mg GAE/100 g. Genotypes were compared with principal component analysis according to their morphological and biochemical characteristics. In the principal component analysis, species generally formed similar clusters. In molecular marker analysis, 101 bands were obtained from 13 ISSR primers. 76 of the bands are polymorphic and the polymorphism rate was calculated as 75.24%. The similarity index in the UPGMA dendogram obtained as a result of the molecular analysis ranged between 0.71 and 0.88. In the dendrogram, genotypes did not show a dense clustering by species. Conclusion The results obtained may benefit researchers in the determination and protection of gene sources in breeding studies on hawthorn species.

Changes in the structure of the vegetation reflect on the biodiversity and dynamics of the ecosystem. The objective of the study was to characterize and compare the structure of fragments of vegetation with the occurrence of Platonia insiginis, in different stages of regeneration, with 6, 10, 25 and 100 years of fallow period in western Brazilian Amazon. The study was conducted in a completely randomized design, with four treatments, consisting of 6, 10, 25 and 100 years of fallow period, and five replications, consisting of demarcated temporary plots for each fallow period, with dimensions of 2 m x 2 m for the regenerating stratum of vegetation and 10 m x 10 m for the adult stratum of vegetation. Phytosociological parameters evaluated were number of individuals and species, total density, total height, stem diameter and Shannon DiversityIndex (H’), Pielou Equability (J) and Jaccard Similarity Index (JSI). The data were subjected to the Analysis of Variance, followed by the Tukey Test (p <0.05) and Principal Component Analysis. There was low species diversity for the sampled areas, with (H’) rates ranging from 0.65 to 2.46 nats ind-1. The vegetation fragments with 100 years of fallow period showed a floristic similarity of 10% with the others, while those of 6 and 10 years of fallow period, reached similarity of 40%. For the regenerating strata only, the number of individuals and total density differed, with the lowest averages, respectively, of 5 and 1,400 individuals ha-1 at 100 years of fallow period. For the adult strata, there was a difference between all parameters corroborating the results obtained in the Principal Component Analysis, at 100 years of fallow period, a lower average was obtained for the number of individuals (7), and higher averages of plant height (22.1 m) and diameter at breast height (36.45 cm). As conclusion, the time required for the complete natural regeneration of secondary vegetation fragments in the Brazilian Amazon is over 100 years

Background: The Intermittent Claudication Questionnaire (ICQ) is a short questionnaire for the assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). The objective of this study was to translate the ICQ into German and to investigate the psychometric properties of the German ICQ version in patients with IC. Patients and methods: The original English version was translated using a forward-backward method. The resulting German version was reviewed by the author of the original version and an experienced clinician. Finally, it was tested for clarity with 5 German patients with IC. A sample of 81 patients were administered the German ICQ. The sample consisted of 58.0 % male patients with a median age of 71 years and a median IC duration of 36 months. Test of feasibility included completeness of questionnaires, completion time, and ratings of clarity, length and relevance. Reliability was assessed through a retest in 13 patients at 14 days, and analysis of Cronbach’s alpha for internal consistency. Construct validity was investigated using principal component analysis. Concurrent validity was assessed by correlating the ICQ scores with the Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36) as well as clinical measures. Results: The ICQ was completely filled in by 73 subjects (90.1 %) with an average completion time of 6.3 minutes. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient reached 0.75. Intra-class correlation for test-retest reliability was r = 0.88. Principal component analysis resulted in a 3 factor solution. The first factor explained 51.5 of the total variation and all items had loadings of at least 0.65 on it. The ICQ was significantly associated with the SF-36 and treadmill-walking distances whereas no association was found for resting ABPI. Conclusions: The German version of the ICQ demonstrated good feasibility, satisfactory reliability and good validity. Responsiveness should be investigated in further validation studies.
