Quantitative Fractography of Rubber by Image Processing Technique

Abstract In this paper, an image processing technique to quantitatively analyze abraded, torn and fatigue failed surfaces is described. The image surfaces were represented in terms of a closed set of orthogonal polynomials. The significant orthogonal effects were measured and combined to represent the local texture, called pronum. The frequency of occurrence of the pronums is the prospectrum, a global descriptor. Various statistical parameters were calculated from the prospectrum and correlated to the ridge spacings on abraded surfaces. The statistical closeness between various textured surfaces was also quantified. Using the image processing technique, the laborious procedure involved for quantification especially of irregular microfeatures has been shown to be overcome.

Vehicle Accidents

The bone fracture is the most common problem and is likely to occur due to traumatic incidents like vehicle accidents, sporting injuries or due to conditions like osteoporosis, cancer related to bones. Fracture cannot be viewed by naked eye and so X-ray, CT, ultrasound, MRI images are used to detect it. These images cannot be diagnosed directly and henceforth image processing plays a very important role in fracture detection. This paper presents an image processing technique that uses Laplacian method of edge detection for accurate identification of fractured bone area from the X-ray/CT images. From the fractured bone area several parameters like mean, standard deviation are calculated in order to analyze the accuracy and sensitivity of the used technique. NIVISION assistant software is used and the statistical parameters are calculated.

Scanning Electron

One of the advantages of scanning electron microscopy is the capability for processing the image contrast, i.e., the image processing technique. Crewe et al were the first to apply this technique to a field emission scanning microscope and show images of individual atoms. They obtained a contrast which depended exclusively on the atomic numbers of specimen elements (Zcontrast), by displaying the images treated with the intensity ratio of elastically scattered to inelastically scattered electrons. The elastic scattering electrons were extracted by a solid detector and inelastic scattering electrons by an energy analyzer. We noted, however, that there is a possibility of the same contrast being obtained only by using an annular-type solid detector consisting of multiple concentric detector elements.

The Individual

Image processing technique in general, involves the application of signal processing on the input image for isolating the individual color plane of an image. It plays an important role in the image analysis and computer version. This paper compares the efficiency of two approaches in the area of finding breast cancer in medical image processing. The fundamental target is to apply an image mining in the area of medical image handling utilizing grouping guideline created by genetic algorithm. The parameter using extracted border, the border pixels are considered as population strings to genetic algorithm and Ant Colony Optimization, to find out the optimum value from the border pixels. We likewise look at cost of ACO and GA also, endeavors to discover which one gives the better solution to identify an affected area in medical image based on computational time.

Human Inspection

In earlier times fruits were sorted manually and it was very time consuming and laborious task. Human sorted the fruits of the basis of shape, size and color. Time taken by human to sort the fruits is very large therefore to reduce the time and to increase the accuracy, an automatic classification of fruits comes into existence.To improve this human inspection and reduce time required for fruit sorting an advance technique is developed that accepts information about fruits from their images, and is called as Image Processing Technique.
