An Image Enhancement Approach to Achieve High Speed using Adaptive Modified B...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
For real time application scenarios of image processing, satellite imaginary has grown more interest by researches due to the informative nature of image. Satellite images are captured using high quality cameras. These images are captured from space using on-board cameras. Wrong ISO setting, camera vibrations or wrong sensory setting causes noise. The degraded image can cause less efficient results during visual perception which is a challenging issue for researchers. Another reason is that noise corrupts the image during acquisition, transmission, interference or dust particles on the scanner screen of image from satellite to the earth stations. If quality degraded images are used for further processing then it may result in wrong information extraction. In order to cater this issue, image filtering or denoising approach is required.
Since remote sensing images are captured from space using on-board camera which requires high speed operating device which can provide better reconstruction quality by utilizing lesser power consumption. Recently various approaches have been proposed for image filtering. Key challenges with these approaches are reconstruction quality, operating speed, image quality by preserving information at edges on image.
Proposed approach is named as modified bilateral filter. In this approach bilateral filter and kernel schemes are combined. In order to overcome the drawbacks, modified bilateral filtering by using FPGA to perform the parallelism process for denoising is implemented.

HYBRID APPROACH FOR NOISE REMOVAL AND IMAGE ENHANCEMENT OF BRAIN TUMORS IN MA...acijjournal
In medical image processing, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is one of significant diagnostic
techniques. It provides high quality of important information about the analysis of human soft tissue when
measured with CT imaging modalities; hence it is suitable for diagnosis at best. However, if it gives quality
of information, image may distorted by noise because of image acquisition device and transmission. The
noises in MR image reduces the quality of image and also damages the segmentation task which can lead
to faulty diagnosis. Noises have to reduce at the same time there is no information loss. This paper propose
a hybrid approach to enhance the brain tumor MRI images using combined features of Anisotropic
Diffusion Filter (ADF) with Modified Decision Based Unsymmetric Trimmed Median Filter (MDBUTMF).
ADF scheme provides a superior performance by removing noise while preserving image details and
enhancing edges. MDBUTMF helps in image denoising as well as preserving edges satisfactorily when the
noise level is high. The performance of this filter is evaluated by carrying out a qualitative comparison of
this method with other filters namely, ADF filter, Modified Decision Algorithm, Median filter, MDBUTMF.

COLOUR BASED IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING HYBRID KMEANS WITH WATERSHED SEGMENTATIONIAEME Publication
Image processing, arbitrarily manipulating an image to achieve an aesthetic standard or to support a preferred reality. The objective of segmentation is partitioning an image into distinct regions containing each pixels with similar attributes. Image segmentation can be done using thresholding, color space segmentation, k-means clustering.
Segmentation is the low-level operation concerned with partitioning images by determining disjoint and homogeneous regions or, equivalently, by finding edges or boundaries. The homogeneous regions, or the edges, are supposed to correspond, actual objects, or parts of them, within the images. Thus, in a large number of applications in image processing and computer vision, segmentation plays a fundamental role as the first step before applying to images higher-level operations such as recognition, semantic interpretation, and representation. Until very recently, attention has been focused on segmentation of gray-level images since these have been the only kind of visual information that acquisition devices were able to take the computer resources to handle. Nowadays, color image has definitely displaced monochromatic information and computation power is no longer a limitation in processing large volumes of data. In this paper proposed hybrid k-means with watershed segmentation algorithm is used segment the images. Filtering techniques is used as noise filtration method to improve the results and PSNR, MSE performance parameters has been calculated and shows the level of accuracy
Medical Images are regularly of low contrast and boisterous/Noisy (absence of clarity) because of
the circumstances they are being taken. De-noising these pictures is a troublesome undertaking as they
ought to exclude any antiquities or obscuring of edges in the pictures. The Bayesian shrinkage strategy has
been chosen for thresholding in light of its sub band reliance property. The spatial space and Wavelet
based de-noising systems utilizing delicate thresholding strategy are contrasted and the proposed technique
utilizing GA (Genetic Algorithm) is used. The GA procedure is proposed in view of PSNR and results are
contrasted and existing spatial space and wavelet based de-noising separating strategies. The proposed
calculation gives improved visual clarity to diagnosing the restorative pictures. The proposed strategy in
view of GA surveys the better execution on the premise of the quantitative metric i.e PSNR (Peak Signal
to Noise-Ratio) and visual impacts. Reenactment results demonstrate that the GA based proposed
technique beats the current de-noising separating strategies.

It is argued that this method can effectively fuse images from different exposures or focal points without introducing artifacts.
Analysis of Various Image De-Noising Techniques: A Perspective Viewijtsrd
A critical issue in the image restoration is the problem of de noising images while keeping the integrity of relevant image information. A large number of image de noising techniques are proposed to remove noise. Mainly these techniques are depends upon the type of noise present in images. So image de noising still remains an important challenge for researchers because de noising techniques remove noise from images but also introduces some artifacts and cause blurring. In this paper we discuss about various image de noising and their features. Some of these techniques provide satisfactory results in noise removal and also preserving edges with fine details present in images. Noise modeling in images is greatly affected by capturing instruments, data transmission media, image quantization and discrete sources of radiation. Different algorithms are used depending on the noise model. Most of the natural images are assumed to have additive random noise which is modeled as a Gaussian.

Several researchers have used image enhancement methods to reduce detection errors and increase verification accuracy in palmprint identification. Divergent opinions exist among experts regarding the best method of image filtering to improve image palmprint recognition. Because of the unique characteristics of palmprints and the difficulties in preventing counterfeiting, image-filtering techniques are the subject of this current research. Researchers hope to create the best biometric system possible by utilizing various techniques.

2. Edge detection separates images by detecting changes in pixel intensity or color to find edges and boundaries. Threshold-based methods segment images based on pixel intensity levels compared to a threshold. Region-based methods partition images into homogeneous regions of connected pixels. Neural network-based methods can perform automated segmentation through supervised or unsupervised machine learning.
3. Prior research has evaluated these techniques, finding that edge detection works best with clear edges but struggles with noise or smooth boundaries, and thresholding methods can miss details but are simple to implement. Region-based and neural network
The main purpose of the current study was to formulate an empirical expression for predicting the axial compression capacity and axial strain of concrete-filled plastic tubular specimens (CFPT) using the artificial neural network (ANN). A total of seventy-two experimental test data of CFPT and unconfined concrete were used for training, testing, and validating the ANN models. The ANN axial strength and strain predictions were compared with the experimental data and predictions from several existing strength models for fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-confined concrete. Five statistical indices were used to determine the performance of all models considered in the present study. The statistical evaluation showed that the ANN model was more effective and precise than the other models in predicting the compressive strength, with 2.8% AA error, and strain at peak stress, with 6.58% AA error, of concrete-filled plastic tube tested under axial compression load. Similar lower values were obtained for the NRMSE index.
Several studies have established that strength development in concrete is not only determined by the water/binder ratio, but it is also affected by the presence of other ingredients. With the increase in the number of concrete ingredients from the conventional four materials by addition of various types of admixtures (agricultural wastes, chemical, mineral and biological) to achieve a desired property, modelling its behavior has become more complex and challenging. Presented in this work is the possibility of adopting the Gene Expression Programming (GEP) algorithm to predict the compressive strength of concrete admixed with Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) as Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs). A set of data with satisfactory experimental results were obtained from literatures for the study. Result from the GEP algorithm was compared with that from stepwise regression analysis in order to appreciate the accuracy of GEP algorithm as compared to other data analysis program. With R-Square value and MSE of -0.94 and 5.15 respectively, The GEP algorithm proves to be more accurate in the modelling of concrete compressive strength.

Empowering Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure with Renewable Energy Int...AI Publications
The escalating energy crisis, heightened environmental awareness and the impacts of climate change have driven global efforts to reduce carbon emissions. A key strategy in this transition is the adoption of green energy technologies particularly for charging electric vehicles (EVs). According to the U.S. Department of Energy, EVs utilize approximately 60% of their input energy during operation, twice the efficiency of conventional fossil fuel vehicles. However, the environmental benefits of EVs are heavily dependent on the source of electricity used for charging. This study examines the potential of renewable energy (RE) as a sustainable alternative for electric vehicle (EV) charging by analyzing several critical dimensions. It explores the current RE sources used in EV infrastructure, highlighting global adoption trends, their advantages, limitations, and the leading nations in this transition. It also evaluates supporting technologies such as energy storage systems, charging technologies, power electronics, and smart grid integration that facilitate RE adoption. The study reviews RE-enabled smart charging strategies implemented across the industry to meet growing global EV energy demands. Finally, it discusses key challenges and prospects associated with grid integration, infrastructure upgrades, standardization, maintenance, cybersecurity, and the optimization of energy resources. This review aims to serve as a foundational reference for stakeholders and researchers seeking to advance the sustainable development of RE based EV charging systems.

This project presents a novel approach for restoring noisy images using a bilateral filter
with an edge-preserving algorithm. The proposed method aims to effectively remove
noise while preserving important edges and details in the image. The bilateral filter is
utilized to smooth the image while retaining edge information, and the edge-preserving
algorithm further enhances the preservation of significant features. Experimental results
demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in restoring noisy images,
achieving superior performance compared to existing techniques. The combination of
the bilateral filter and edge-preserving algorithm offers a promising solution for various
applications in image restoration and enhancement. We provide visual and quantitative
results on standard test images which show that this improvement is significant both
visually and in terms of PSNR and SSIM.

INTRODUCTION
IMAGE- It is a visual representation formed by group of pixels
NOISE-A random variation in an image
where y is the observed noisy image, x is the clean image, and n represents noise.
The purpose of noise reduction is to decrease the noise in natural images while
minimizing the loss of original features and improving the peak-signal-to-noise ratio
(PSNR).
The major things which should be considered while denoising are:
•flat areas should be smooth,
•edges should be protected without blurring,
•textures should be preserved etc.
y = x + n
7. • A bilateral filter is a non-linear and noise-reducing smoothing filter for images. It replaces the
intensity of each pixel with a weighted average of intensity values from nearby pixels. This
weight can be based on a Gaussian distribution.
• Unlike traditional linear filters that treat all pixels equally, bilateral filtering considers both
spatial and intensity information.
• Crucially, the weights depend not only on pixel distance (Euclidean distance) of pixels, but
also on the differences in pixel values (radiometric differences - range differences, such as
color intensity, depth distance, etc.). This preserves sharp edges.
• The filter combines a spatial Gaussian filter, which operates based on pixel distances, and an
intensity Gaussian filter, which considers differences in pixel values.

BILATERAL FILTER
EDGE PRESERVING
• Edge-preserving techniques are vital in image processing for maintaining sharp edges while
reducing noise or performing other modifications.
• These methods, like bilateral filtering, median filtering, and guided filtering, distinguish
between noise and actual edges, ensuring edge details remain intact during processing.
• This preservation is crucial in applications such as image denoising, enhancement, and edge
detection across various fields like medical imaging, satellite imaging, photography, and
computer vision.

• Bilateral filtering works by considering both spatial distance and intensity
difference between pixels. For each pixel in the image, a weighted average is
computed using a Gaussian function to measure spatial distance and another
Gaussian function to measure intensity difference.
10. WORKING PRINCIPLE
• The design and implementation of a bilateral filter with an edge-preserving
algorithm for noisy image restoration follows a sophisticated process aimed at
achieving optimal noise reduction while preserving important image features.
• It works by applying a weighted average to each pixel in the image, taking into
account both its spatial distance from neighboring pixels and the intensity
• This approach ensures that smoothing occurs while maintaining sharp edges.
• Additionally, the incorporation of an edge-preserving algorithm further refines
the filtering process by identifying and preserving edges through the
adjustment of filtering parameters.
• Trade-offs exist between computational speed and denoising accuracy, with
applications in real-time image processing and resource-constrained
environments. Evaluation involves metrics like PSNR and SSIM, ensuring
robustness across different scenarios.

15. CONCLUSION
• In conclusion, the designed and implemented bilateral filter with an edge-preserving algorithm
presents a robust and effective approach for restoring noisy images.
• Through experimental validation, we have demonstrated its superiority over conventional
denoising methods in preserving important image features while effectively reducing noise, as
evidenced by higher PSNR and SSIM values.

several potential avenues for advancement and application:
1. Deep Learning Integration: Combining traditional filtering methods with deep learning
models could enhance denoising performance.

algorithms could enable real-time image processing in fields like augmented reality and
medical imaging.

adjust filter parameters based on image characteristics and noise levels.
4. Multi-modal Data Fusion: Extending bilateral filtering to handle multi-modal data could
enhance its utility in applications such as remote sensing and medical imaging.
5. Application in Emerging Technologies: Approximate bilateral filtering may find new
applications in computational photography, virtual reality, and digital entertainment for
enhancing image quality and user experience.
