Sign language is an essential tool to bridge the communication gap between normal and
hearing-impaired people. However, the diversity of over 7000 present-day sign languages …

Over the past few years various convolutional neural network (CNN) based approaches
have been applied in image denoising. Acknowledging the size of the receptive field in an …

Insufficient illumination usually degrades the visual appearance of an image, this, in turn,
results in an unnatural look, washed-out effects, and unwanted artifacts. Image …

The benchmark algorithms for motion estimation, the most computationally expensive
process in versatile video coding are full search (FS) and test zone search (TZS). FS …

Existing bridges are aging and deteriorating. Furthermore, large number of bridges exist in
transportation networks meanwhile maintenance budgets are being squeezed. This state of …

Since remote sensing images are one of the main sources for people to obtain required
information, the quality of the image becomes particularly important. Nevertheless, noise …

The growing number of bridges and their deteriorated conditions on one hand and the
budget squeeze for their repair and rehabilitation on the other call for automated detection of …

Contrary to one of the major problems in computer tomography image analysis, Image
enhancement can be used to improve the clarity and quality of the picture or to provide …

One of the more prevalent and severe cancer kinds is thought to be skin cancer. The main
objective is to detect the melanoma in initial stage and save millions of lives. One of the most …

Noise reduction is one of the main challenges for researchers. Classical image de-noising
methods reduce the image noise but sometimes lose image quality and information, such as …
