The image processing is the technique which is applied to process the digital information stored in the image. The OCR is the technique of image processing which will access the optical character information in the image. In the base paper, the technique is applied which will detect the text portion from the input image. The twp step are applied to detect the text portion, in the first back ground information is extracted and in the second step, technique of deep learning is applied which will mark the text region. In the proposed work, SIFT algorithm is applied which will mark the key points for the key description. In the second step, technique of deep learning is applied which will mark the text area in the input image. The proposed and existing algorithms are implemented in MATLAB and it is been analyzed that accuracy of proposed algorithm is more as compared to existing algorithm.

In image processing applications, one of the main preprocessing phases is image enhancement that is used to produce high quality image or enhanced image than the original input image. These enhanced images can be used in many applications such as remote sensing applications, geo-satellite images, etc. The quality of an image is affected due to several conditions such as by poor illumination, atmospheric condition, wrong lens aperture setting of the camera, noise, etc [2]. So, such degraded/low exposure images are needed to be enhanced by increasing the brightness as well as its contrast and this can be possible by the method of image enhancement. In this research work different image enhancement techniques are discussed and reviewed with their results. The aim of this study is to determine the application of deep learning approaches that have been used for image enhancement. Deep learning is a machine learning approach which is currently revolutionizing a number of disciplines including image processing and computer vision. This paper will attempt to apply deep learning to image filtering, specifically low-light image enhancement. The review given in this paper is quite efficient for future researchers to overcome problems that helps in designing efficient algorithm which enhances quality of the image.

Digital image processing has a significant impact in different research areas including medical image processing, biometrics, image inpainting, object detection, information hiding, and image compression. Image inpainting is a science of reconstructing damaged parts of digital images and filling-in regions in which information are missing which has many potential applications such as repairing scratched images, removing unwanted objects, filling missing area, and repairing old images. In this paper, an image inpainting algorithm is developed based on exemplar, which is one of the most important and popular images inpainting technique, to fill-in missing area that caused either by removing unwanted objects, by image compression, by scratching image, or by image transformation through internet. In general, image inpainting consists of two main steps: The first one is the priority function. In this step, the algorithm decides to select which patch has the highest priority to be filled at the first. The second step is the searching mechanism to find the most similar patch to the selected highest priority patch to be inpainted. This paper concerns the second step and an improved searching mechanism is proposed to select the most similar patch. The proposed approach entails three steps: (1) Euclidean distance is used to find the similarity between the highest priority patches which need to be inpainted with each patch of the input image, (2) the position/location distance between those two patches is calculated, and (3) the resulted value from the first step is summed with the resulted value obtained from the second step. These steps are repeated until the last patch from the input image is checked. Finally, the smallest distance value obtained in step 3 is selected as the most similar patch. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed approach gained a higher quality in terms of both objectives and subjective compared to other existing algorithms.

In this project, the primary aim will be the conversion of images into Grayscale in which conversion of pixels to array takes place and apply Blur effect using The Gaussian blur which is a type of image-blurring filter that uses a Gaussian function which also expresses the normal distribution in statistics for calculating the transformation to apply to each pixel in the image. The above two processesare applied to the input images. These two above mentioned processes can be achieved by utilizing the most relevant python libraries and functions, followed by conversion of the digital image to numerical data and then, applying the effects to the image to get back the image with applied effects in it. Face recognition refers to matching a face present in an input image from the training/pre-saved dataset and by applying Deep Learning Concept. This will be achieved by defining a function to read and convert images to data, apply the python function, and then, recreating the image with results.

Today the technology age is characterized by spreading of digital images. The most common form of transfer the information in magazines, newspapers, scientific journals and all types of social media.  This huge use of images technology has been accompanied by an evolution in editing tools of image processing which make modifying and editing an image is very simple. Nowadays, the circulation of such forgery images, which distort the truth, has become common, intentionally or unintentionally. Nowadays many methods of copy-move forgery detection which is one of the most important and popular methods of image forgery are available. Most of these methods suffer from the problem of producing false matches as false positives in flat regions. This paper presents an algorithm of the Copy-Move forgery detection using the SIFT algorithm with an effective method to remove the false positives by rejecting all key-points in matches list that own a neighbor less than the threshold. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm was 95 %. The experimental results refer that the proposed method of false positives removing can remove false matches accurately and quickly.

Motorcycle accidents have been rapidly growing throughout the years in many countries. Due to various social and economic factors, this type of vehicle is becoming increasingly popular. The helmet is the main safety equipment of motorcyclists but many drivers do not use it. If a motorcyclist is without helmet an accident can be fatal. This paper presented an automatic method for vehicle detection, motorcycles classification on public roads and a system for automatic detection of motorcyclists without helmet. For processing, in first step, we detect vehicles that moving real-time by extracting back ground out from front ground using back subtraction then enhancing it using threshold and mathematical morphology method. In the second step, we classify between motorcycle and other vehicles. Area is applied for feature extraction and neural network is applied for classification. In the final step, Hough transform is applied for detecting a helmet. From the experimental results, the accuracy rates of the motorcycle classification and helmet detection were 98.22% and 77%, respectively.

AbstractIn recent years, the success of deep learning in natural scene image processing boosted its application in the analysis of remote sensing images. In this paper, we applied Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) on the semantic segmentation of remote sensing images. We improve the Encoder- Decoder CNN structure SegNet with index pooling and U-net to make them suitable for multi-targets semantic segmentation of remote sensing images. The results show that these two models have their own advantages and disadvantages on the segmentation of different objects. In addition, we propose an integrated algorithm that integrates these two models. Experimental results show that the presented integrated algorithm can exploite the advantages of both the models for multi-target segmentation and achieve a better segmentation compared to these two models.
