list

The Department is involved in basic research in image processing and pictorial pattern recognition. Major application areas are biomedicine, remote sensing, astronomy, and art conservation.

Main scientific areas
  • Recognition of distorted images and patterns by invariant descriptors regardless of their actual position in the scene
  • Registration and fusion of several images of the same scene taken at different times, by different sensors and/or from different viewpoints in order to obtain information of higher quality
  • Theory of moment invariants, namely of rotation invariants, affine invariants and invariants to convolution
  • Restoration of degraded images, namely multichannel blind deconvolution, edgepreserving denoising, local contrast enhancement, and color transformations
  • Image forensics - detection of image forgeries
  • Cultural heritage applications - cooperation with art conservators in order to facilitate the conservation and material analysis work

Digital image acquisition is often accompanied with its degradation by blur (out-of-focus, motion etc.) and noise. In many cases, the degradation process can be modeled by convolution g=u*h+n where g denotes the acquired image, u the original image, h the convolution mask (blur), and n random noise. The goal of deconvolution is to recover the original image based on the observed image.
Duration: 2012 - 2016
Main purpose of the project is to facilitate czech geodetic enterprises to utilize progressive measuring and monitoring technology based on terrestrial radar interferometry (InSAR) to determine deformations of important and hazardous buildings, natural sites and localities such as dams, highway bridges, breast-walls, cooling towers, rocks, slide slopes, erosive sites and so on.
Duration: 2012 - 2014
The project deals with interdisciplinary research of digital image processing methods applied to analysis and conservation of artworks. The aim is development of image processing methods for multimodal data acquired during the analysis of historical artworks exploiting the knowledge of multispectral properties of dyes, used for artwork creation.
Duration: 2011 - 2013
The project deals with generalization of existing theory of moment invariants, with derivation of new invariants for object description and recognition, with proposal of stable and efficient numerical algorithms for their computation, and with their software implementation in a form of MATLAB toolbox.
Duration: 2011 - 2014
GenEx - System for support of the FISH method evaluation The goal of this project is to develop a system for computer-aided evaluation of molecular cytogenetic analyses. The primary use of the system is in evaluation of image data originating from the FISH (Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization) analysis.
