unusual facts about image processing



Hqx

In image processing, hqx ("hq" stands for "high quality" and "x" stands for magnification) is one of the pixel art scaling algorithms developed by Maxim Stepin, used in emulators such as Nestopia, FCEUX, higan, Snes9x, ZSNES and many more.

Multiresolution analysis

It was introduced in this context in 1988/89 by Stephane Mallat and Yves Meyer and has predecessors in the microlocal analysis in the theory of differential equations (the ironing method) and the pyramid methods of image processing as introduced in 1981/83 by Peter J. Burt, Edward H. Adelson and James Crowley.

Nik Szymanek

His imaging and image-processing abilities brought him the Amateur Achievement Award of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific in 2004.

Sanjeev Kulkarni

Sanjeev Ramesh Kulkarni (born Mumbai, India, September 21, 1963) is Professor of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University, where he teaches and conducts research in a broad range of areas including statistical inference, pattern recognition, machine learning, information theory, and signal/image processing.

Super Video CD

To reduce the data rate without significantly reducing quality, the size of the GOP can be increased, the maximum data rate can be exceeded, and a different MPEG-2 quantization matrix can be used.

YDreams

YDreams was founded in June 2000 by António Câmara, José Miguel Remédio, Edmundo Nobre, Eduardo Dias and Nuno Correia, professors and researchers in areas ranging from information technology, telecommunications, image processing, geographic information systems and environmental engineering at the Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia of the New University of Lisbon.

Crystallographic image processing

Crystallographic image processing (CIP) is a set of methods for determining the atomic structure of crystalline matter from high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) images obtained in a transmission electron microscope (TEM).

Intelligent Systems Challenge

The Challenge problem for 2009, titled Protecting Canada's Coastal Border, was proposed by MacDonald Dettwiler and Associates (MDA), the aerospace and financial products company that built the Canadarm, Radarsat-2 and image processing systems used for Google Earth.

Luna 3

Though it returned rather poor pictures by later standards, the historic, never-before-seen views of the far side of the Moon caused excitement and interest when they were published around the world, and a tentative Atlas of the Far Side of the Moon was created after image processing improved the pictures.

Matt Stephens

DDT and the ICONIX modeling process have been adopted in a variety of large-scale software projects e.g. the image processing software in the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST).

This team of physiotherapists, physicists and engineers evaluated the dynamic function of the Pelvic Floor Muscles in women using 2D ultrasound and novel image processing methods.

SVG filter effects

Because most of the filter primitives represent some form of image processing, in most cases the output from a filter primitive is a single RGBA bitmap image (however, it will be regenerated if a higher resolution is called on).
