Computer Enhancement Of Real World Photographic Images Using Homomorphic And Linear Filtering, Nitin Sampat Oct 1985

Computer Enhancement Of Real World Photographic Images Using Homomorphic And Linear Filtering, Nitin Sampat

Theses

Digital Image Processing techniques have become increasingly popular in the last few years. Conventional silver halide photography continues to be used by the large amateur market, but not without "imperfect" images. There is almost always a need for enhancement or subsequent improvement after the photograph is made. This study dealt with computer image enhancement of such "imperfect" photographs using homomorphic (non-linear) and linear frequency-domain digital filtering (on a VAX-11/785) and a comparison in effectiveness was determined, using a subjective criteria for image quality. It was found that, in general, linear filtering is to be the preferred method of choice when …


A Study Of Mutispectral Temporal Scene Normalization Using Pseudo-Invariant Features, Applied To Landsat Tm Imagery, William Volchok Oct 1985

A Study Of Mutispectral Temporal Scene Normalization Using Pseudo-Invariant Features, Applied To Landsat Tm Imagery, William Volchok

Theses

A new technique for performing temporal image normalization using pseudo-invariant features was investigated. The technique was applied to the six reflected spectral band images of the Landsat TM sensors. The temporal normalization of pseudo-invariant features yielded linear normalizing functions for all bands. The errors in the normalization of pseudo-invariant features was determined to be on the order of three digital counts, which was estimated to be equivalent to reflectance errors on the order of one percent reflectance. Temporal normalization of all features in the Landsat scene shows great potential for both quantitative and qualitative temporal change detection.

Analysis Of Vehicle Suspension System Subjected To Random Vibration, Shabbir Lokhandwala Sep 1985

Analysis Of Vehicle Suspension System Subjected To Random Vibration, Shabbir Lokhandwala

Theses

A two dimensional, two degree of freedom vehicle model is studied. A randomly profiled road is assumed to impart hyperbolic distributed stationary vertical random displacements to the front and the rear wheel. A computer program has been developed to evaluate transfer function matrices. The performance characteristic of the vehicle based on the Power Spectral Density of the vertical acceleration as well as the rattle space, for different values of damping factors, are studied.

Semi-Empirical Molecular Orbital Calculations Of The Ground And Excited State Potential Surfaces For Photodissociation Of Pararosaniline Leucocyanide Incorporating Solvent Stabilization, John Westbrook Aug 1985

Semi-Empirical Molecular Orbital Calculations Of The Ground And Excited State Potential Surfaces For Photodissociation Of Pararosaniline Leucocyanide Incorporating Solvent Stabilization, John Westbrook

Theses

The excited state and ground state potential surfaces are calculated for the photoionization of Pararosaniline leucocyanide using MNDO-SCF and INDO-SCF-CI molecular orbital methods. These potential surfaces are corrected for influence of polar media using Onsager reaction field theory and incorporating dipole-dipole interaction. These calculations support a mechanism of photochromism in which photodissociation occurs from the first singlet excited state.

Rochester: Documented, Peter Eberlin Aug 1985

Rochester: Documented, Peter Eberlin

Theses

Over a two-year period certain unappreciated, visual and factual aspects of the City of Rochester were systematically documented. These aspects of the City of Rochester consisted of Mobil Gas Stations and their owners, closed gas stations, and new businesses in former gas stations; the City Limits and residents, animals, and other noisemakers existing proximal to the City Limits; places where I had to wait in line; the MEN and WOMEN of City Hall; the dotted lines that separate traffic lanes; and a short, dead-end street that was bull dozed over and left for field. The process of documenting these aspects …

Comparison Of Two Mtf Measurement Methods: Sine-Wave Vs Edge Gradient Analysis, John Cadou Jul 1985

Comparison Of Two Mtf Measurement Methods: Sine-Wave Vs Edge Gradient Analysis, John Cadou

Theses

A comparison of the sine-wave and edge gradient MTF measurement methods, on a photographic black and white film, was performed. A statistical test, a CMT acutance test, and a graphical comparison showed that there was no significant difference between the two measurement methods. This was true for the film processed to have large adjacency effects, as well as for the film processed to have no adjacency effects; however, the agreement was slightly better for the latter process. The research also showed that aligning the midpoints of the edge traces, normalizing the individual edge traces, and then averaging several edge traces …


A Recursive Fractal Design Generator For Dimensions Zero To Two Implemented Within A Two Dimensional Core Graphics Package, Elizabeth Lehmann Jul 1985

A Recursive Fractal Design Generator For Dimensions Zero To Two Implemented Within A Two Dimensional Core Graphics Package, Elizabeth Lehmann

Theses

This thesis incorporates the technique developed by Benoit Mandelbrot to describe recursive fractals into an interactive graphics package based on the Core Graphics System (Core) produced by an ACM SIGGRAPH Committee (1977, 1979). The graphics package encompasses simple standard geometric shapes as well as the recursive fractals. To draw those fractals requires knowing both the basic shape or generator, and the points of recursion. These two pieces are acquired through the using of two windows which allow the generator and the points of recursion to be built. Once built, the fractal recursion level is chosen interactively on the main drawing. …
