It is relatively easy to distinguish these features among the objects already separated from each other. The problems will be undoubtedly more complex and of greater challenge if the objects are touched or/and overlapped. This letter presents an algorithm that can be used to separate the touches and overlaps existing in the objects within a 2-D image. The approach is first to convert the gray-scale image to its corresponding binary one and then to the 3-D topographic one using the erosion operations. A template (or mask) is engineered to search the topographic surface for the saddle point, from which the segmenting orientation is determined followed by the desired separating operation. The algorithm is tested on a real image and the running result is adequately satisfying and encouraging.展开更多

Both the motion direction and the length of the point spread function (PSF) are estimated by Radon transformation and extrema a detection. Using the estimated blur parameters, the permuted image is restored by performing the L-R blind restoration method. The permutation mixing matrices can be accurately estimated by classifying the ringing effect in the restored image, thereby the source images can be separated. Simulation results show a better separation efficiency for the permuted motion blurred image with various permutation operations. The proposed algorithm indicates a better performance on the robustness against Gaussian noise and lossy JPEG compression.展开更多

First, the azimuth ambiguity, which exists extensively in conventional single-well imaging, is solved with an improved imaging procedure using combined monopole–dipole logging data in addition to conventional logging data. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the direct waves propagating along the boreholes with strong energy, can be effectively eliminated with the proposed combined monopole–dipole measurement mode. The reflections are therefore predominant in the combined monopole–dipole data even before the signals are filtered; thus, the reflections' arrival times in each receiver are identified, which may help minimize the difficulties in filtering conventional logging data. The optimized processing flow of the combined measurement mode logging image is given in this paper. The proposed combined monopole–dipole measurement mode may improve the accuracy of single-well imaging.展开更多

To overcome the problem of rigid structures appearing to have the same spectral structure in the time domain, time-frequency Blind Source Separation (BSS) can be used in combination with image morphology to separate the rigid scattering components of different objects. Based on a highlight model, the separation of the rigid scattering structure of objects with time-frequency distribution is deduced. Using a morphological filter, different characteristics in a Wigner-Ville Distribution (WVD) observed for single auto term and cross terms can be simplified to remove any cross-term interference. By selecting time and frequency points of the auto terms signal, the accuracy of BSS can be improved. A simulation experimental has been used to analyze the feasibility of the new method, with changing the pulse width of the transmitted signal, the relative amplitude and the time delay parameter. And simulation results show that the new method can not only separate rigid scattering components, but can also separate the components when elastic scattering and rigid scattering exist at the same time. Experimental results confirm that the new method can be used in separating the rigid scattering structure of underwater objects.展开更多

However, this image is accompanied by strong background noises, because the wavefi elds in all propagation directions contribute to it. Given this issue, we improve the conventional imaging method in the two aspects. First, the amplitude-preserved P-and S-wavef ield are obtained by using an improved space-domain wavef ield separation scheme to decouple the original elastic wavef ield. Second, a convertedwave imaging condition is constructed based on the directional-wavefield separation and only the wavefields propagating in the same directions used for cross-correlation imaging, resulting in effectively eliminating the imaging artifacts of the wavefields with different directions;Complex-wavefi eld extrapolation is adopted to decompose the decoupled P-and S-wavefield into directional-wavefields during backward propagation, this improves the eff iciency of the directional-wavef ield separation. Experiments on synthetic data show that the improved method generates more accurate converted-wave images than the conventional one. Moreover, the improved method has application potential in micro-seismic and passive-source exploration due to its source-independent characteristic.展开更多

To address this issue, the MobileNetV1 network was developed, which employs depthwise convolution to reduce network complexity. MobileNetV1 employs a stride of 2 in several convolutional layers to decrease the spatial resolution of feature maps, thereby lowering computational costs. However, this stride setting can lead to a loss of spatial information, particularly affecting the detection and representation of smaller objects or finer details in images. To maintain the trade-off between complexity and model performance, a lightweight convolutional neural network with hierarchical multi-scale feature fusion based on the MobileNetV1 network is proposed. The network consists of two main subnetworks. The first subnetwork uses a depthwise dilated separable convolution (DDSC) layer to learn imaging features with fewer parameters, which results in a lightweight and computationally inexpensive network. Furthermore, depthwise dilated convolution in DDSC layer effectively expands the field of view of filters, allowing them to incorporate a larger context. The second subnetwork is a hierarchical multi-scale feature fusion (HMFF) module that uses parallel multi-resolution branches architecture to process the input feature map in order to extract the multi-scale feature information of the input image. Experimental results on the CIFAR-10, Malaria, and KvasirV1 datasets demonstrate that the proposed method is efficient, reducing the network parameters and computational cost by 65.02% and 39.78%, respectively, while maintaining the network performance compared to the MobileNetV1 baseline.展开更多
