Abstract:
According to multi-resolution analysis of wavelet threshold denoising principle, this paper presented two improved algorithms of continuity and adaptive threshold based on hard thresholding. The soft thresholding (hyperbolic thresholding) was used in the intervals after setting two thresholds, and the isolated points were removed according to the adjacent correlation coefficient during the processing. As a result, the hard thresholding’s shortcomings were reduced. The simulation results show that improved algorithms have both better visual effect and PSNR than the traditional approaches.

Abstract:
This study presents the effects of operator bias and variation in interactive thresholding on the estimation of light environment using hemispherical photography. Twenty-one hemispherical photographs taken beneath a wide range of canopy densities were visually converted to binary images twice by 21 operators, and then the gap fraction was computed from the images. The interactive threshold varied greatly among the different operators and within a single operator, which resulted in a considerable operator bias and variation in the gap fraction. This study also compared three widely used automatic thresholding algorithms, which were installed in freely available software LIA for Win32 for analyzing hemispherical photography, with interactive thresholding using the same photographs. The median of the interactive threshold by repetitive interactive thresholdings from 21 operators was assumed to be correct for the comparison. The results indicated that MINIMUM was considered to be a better algorithm than the other ones installed in LIA32 when the gap fraction was over 10%. However, VARIANCE seemed to be superior to MINIMUM under the low gap fraction and the cloudy sky condition with dark and white clouds. This implied that MINIMUM or VARIANCE should be used for analyzing hemispherical photographs with LIA32. In conclusion, we need to pay attention to the selection of the automatic thresholding algorithm and the sky condition when taking hemispherical photographs.

Abstract:
Abstract Iterative thresholding algorithms seek to optimize a differentiable objective function over a sparsity or rank constraint by alternating between gradient steps that reduce the objective and thresholding steps that enforce the constraint. This work examines the choice of the thresholding operator and asks whether it is possible to achieve stronger guarantees than what is possible with hard thresholding. We develop the notion of relative concavity of a thresholding operator, a quantity that characterizes the worst-case convergence performance of any thresholding operator on the target optimization problem. Surprisingly, we find that commonly used thresholding operators, such as hard thresholding and soft thresholding, are suboptimal in terms of worst-case convergence guarantees. Instead, a general class of thresholding operators, lying between hard thresholding and soft thresholding, is shown to be optimal with the strongest possible convergence guarantee among all thresholding operators. Examples of this general class includes $\ell _q$ thresholding with appropriate choices of $q$ and a newly defined reciprocal thresholding operator. We also investigate the implications of the improved optimization guarantee in the statistical setting of sparse linear regression and show that this new class of thresholding operators attain the optimal rate for computationally efficient estimators, matching the Lasso.

Abstract:
In this paper, a new thresholding operator, namely, designed thresholding operator, is designed to recover the low-rank matrices. With the change of parameter in designed thresholding operator, the designed thresholding operator can apply less bias to the larger singular values of a matrix compared with the classical soft thresholding operator. Based on the designed thresholding operator, an iterative thresholding algorithm for recovering the low-rank matrices is proposed. Numerical experiments on some image inpainting problems show that the proposed thresholding algorithm performs effectively in recovering the low-rank matrices.

Abstract:
Segmentasi pembuluh darah pada retina diperlukan pada deteksi dini penyakit Diabetic Retinopathy pada citra retina. Penelitian ini menggunakan tiga tahapan yaitu pre-processing, segmentasi dan post-processing yang akan membandingkan hasil dari 3 metode segmentasi yang menggunakan nilai Thresholding yaitu Adaptive Thresholding, Binary Thresholding, dan Otsu Thresholding. Hasil pengujian terhadap tiga metode yang digunakan menunjukan bahwa metode Binary Thresholding mendapat rata-rata akurasi, sensitivitas dan spesifisitas tertinggi yaitu 95%, 58%, 98%. Untuk Adaptive Thresholding mendapat rata-rata akurasi sebesar 91%, sensitivitas 36%, spesititiftas 97%. Dan metode Otsu Thresholding mendapatkan rata-rata akurasi 86%, sensitivitas 22%, dan spesifisitas 90%. Dari hasil ketiga metode ini dapat dilihat akurasi yang dihasilkan oleh metode Thresholding sudah sangat baik dalam melakukan segmentasi citra, tetapi nilai sensitivitas dari masing-masing metode Thresholding masih rendah. Hal ini dapat disimpulkan metode Thresholding masih sulit mendapatkan lebih banyak fitur pembuluh darah pada citra retina.

Abstract:
With growing trend in "cloud computing" and increase in the data moving into the Internet, the need to store large amounts of data by service providers such as Google, Yahoo and Microsoft has increased over time. Now, more than ever, there is a need to efficiently and securely store large amounts of data. This thesis presents an implementation of a Ramp Scheme that confidentially splits a data file into a configurable number of parts or shares of equal size such that a subset of those shares can recover the data entirely. Furthermore, the implementation supports a threshold for data compromise and data verification to verify that the data parts have not been tampered with. This thesis addresses two key problems faced in large-scale data storage, namely, data availability and confidentiality.

Abstract:
The current state of the art optical character recognition (OCR) algorithms are capable of extracting text from images in predefined conditions. OCR is extremely reliable for interpreting machine-written text with minimal distortions, but images taken in a natural scene are still challenging. In recent years the topic of improving recognition rates in natural images has gained interest because more powerful handheld devices are used. The main problem faced dealing with recognition in natural images are distortions like illuminations, font textures, and complex backgrounds. Different preprocessing approaches to separate text from its background have been researched lately. In our study, we assess the improvement reached by two of these preprocessing methods called k-means and Otsu by comparing their results from an OCR algorithm. The study showed that the preprocessing made some improvement on special occasions, but overall gained worse accuracy compared to the unaltered images.
Dagens optisk teckeninläsnings (OCR) algoritmer är kapabla av att extrahera text från bilder inom fördefinierade förhållanden. De moderna metoderna har uppnått en hög träffsäkerhet för maskinskriven text med minimala förvrängningar, men bilder tagna i en naturlig scen är fortfarande svåra att hantera. De senaste åren har ett stort intresse för att förbättra tecken igenkännings algoritmerna uppstått, eftersom fler kraftfulla och handhållna enheter används. Det huvudsakliga problemet när det kommer till igenkänning i naturliga bilder är olika förvrängningar som infallande ljus, textens textur och komplicerade bakgrunder. Olika metoder för förbehandling och därmed separation av texten och dess bakgrund har studerats under den senaste tiden. I våran studie bedömer vi förbättringen som uppnås vid förbehandlingen med två metoder som kallas för k-means och Otsu genom att jämföra svaren från en OCR algoritm. Studien visar att Otsu och k-means kan förbättra träffsäkerheten i vissa förhållanden men generellt sett ger det ett sämre resultat än de oförändrade bilderna.

Abstract:
Thresholding and Max operations are essential elements in the implementation of neural networks. Although there have been several optical implementations of neural networks, the thresholding functions are performed electronically [1-3]. Optical thresholding and Max operations have the advantages of parallelism and cascadability without resorting to optoelectronic conversion. Unfortunately, there has been very limited work in this area. In this paper, we propose and study the properties of self-oscillation in nonlinear optical (NLO) four-wave mixing (FWM) and NLO resonators for parallel optical thresholding and Max operations.

Abstract:
This research considers the detection, location, and classification of patches in concrete and asphalt-on-concrete pavements using data taken from ground penetrating radar (GPR) and the WayLink 3D Imaging System. In particular, the project seeks to develop a patching table for “inverted-T” patches. A number of deep neural net methods were investigated for patch detection from 3D elevation and image observation, but the success was inconclusive, partly because of a dearth of training data. Later, a method based on thresholding IRI values computed on a 12-foot window was used to localize pavement distress, particularly as seen by patch settling. This method was far more promising. In addition, algorithms were developed for segmentation of the GPR data and for classification of the ambient pavement and the locations and types of patches found in it. The results so far are promising but far from perfect, with a relatively high rate of false alarms. The two project parts were combined to produce a fused patching table. Several hundred miles of data was captured with the Waylink System to compare with a much more limited GPR dataset. The primary dataset was captured on I-74. A software application for MATLAB has been written to aid in automation of patch table creation.

Several hundred miles of data was captured with the Waylink System to compare with a much more limited GPR dataset. The primary dataset was captured on I-74. A software application for MATLAB has been written to aid in automation of patch table creation.

Abstract:
Non-intrusive techniques such as medical CT-Scan or micro-CT allow the definition of 3D connected pore networks in porous materials, such as sedimentary rocks or concrete. The definition of these networks is a key step towards the evaluation of fluid flow and heat transfer in energy resource (e.g., hydrocarbon and geothermal reservoirs) and CO2 sequestration research projects. As material heterogeneities play a role at all scales (from micro- to project-scale), numerical models represent a powerful tool for bridging the gap between small-scale measurements provided by X-ray imaging techniques and larger-scale transport properties. This study uses pre-existing medical CT-scan datasets of reference material, namely glass beads and conventional reservoir rocks (Berea sandstone, Boise sandstone, Indiana limestone) to extract the 3D geometry of connected pores using an open-source software (Spam). Pore networks from rock samples were generated from dry and then saturated samples. Binarized datasets were produced for these materials (generated by a thresholding technique) to obtain pore size distribution and tortuosity, as well as preferential paths for fluid flow. Average porosities were also calculated for comparison with those obtained by conventional commercial laboratory techniques. The results obtained show that this approach works well for medium and coarse-grained materials that do not contain a large percentage of fine particles. However, this approach does not allow representative networks to be obtained for fine-grained rocks, due to the fact that small pores (or pore throats) cannot be taken into account in the datasets obtained from the medical CT-Scan. A next step, using datasets produced from a micro- CT scan, is planned in order to be able to generate representative networks in this type of material as well.
