The Height of Chitinous Ridges Alone Produces the Entire Structural Color Palette

Hemant Kumar Raut

The colorful wings of butterflies result from the interaction between light and the intricate chitinous nanostructures on butterflies’ scales. This study demonstrates that just by reproducing the chitinous ridges present in butterfly scales (i.e., without ...

Color Image Segmentation Using a Fuzzy Inference System

Matin Macktoobian

A novel method is proposed in the scope of image segmentation that solves this problem by breaking it into two main blocks. The first block's functionality is a method to anticipate the color basis of each segment in segmented images. One of the challenges ...

Temporal Super-Resolution Microscopy Using a Hue-Encoded Shutter

Sylvain Calinon, Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Emmanuel Pignat, Christian Jaques

Limited time-resolution in microscopy is an obstacle to many biological studies. Despite recent advances in hardware, digital cameras have limited operation modes that constrain frame-rate, integration time, and color sensing patterns. In this paper, we pr ...

Near-Infrared Fusion for Photorealistic Image Dehazing

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Frederike Dümbgen, Natalija Gucevska

Scattering of light due to the presence of aerosol particles along the path of radiation causes atmospheric haze in images. This scattering is significantly less severe in longer wavelength bands than in shorter ones, thus the importance of near-infrared ( ...

Multi-Modal Spectral Image Super-Resolution

Sabine Süsstrunk, Ruofan Zhou, Fayez Lahoud

Recent advances have shown the great power of deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) to learn the relationship between low and high-resolution image patches. However, these methods only take a single-scale image as input and require large amount of data ...

Color changing effects with cross-halftone prints on metal

Roger Hersch, Petar Pjanic

We propose new methods for creating color varying prints with classical cyan, magenta, yellow inks on a metallic substrate. We use a special crossline halftone with optimized surface coverages of the inks to create color prints on a metallic surface whose ...

Preserving Perceptual Contrast in Decolorization with Optimized Color Orders

Sabine Süsstrunk, Bin Jin

Converting a color image to a grayscale image, namely decolorization, is an important process for many real-world applications. Previous methods build contrast loss functions to minimize the contrast differences between the color images and the resultant g ...

Graph-Based Representation and Coding of Multiview Images

Pascal Frossard, Bénédicte Motz

Instead of lossily coding depth images resulting in undesirable geometric distortion, graph-based representation (GBR) describes disparity information as a graph with a controllable accuracy. In this paper, we propose a more compact graphical representatio ...

Color Changing Prints on a Metallic Substrate

Petar Pjanic

Printing on a flat metallic substrate has gained popularity in recent years. The reflection of light on a specularly reflecting metallic substrate differs strongly from the reflection of light on a diffusely reflecting medium such as paper. Direct prints o ...

Method to produce a full-color smoothed image

Sabine Süsstrunk

The present invention aims at providing a method to produce modified images of a human face while removing all defects, such as such as pigmentation irregularities (e.g., moles, freckles), irritation, roughness, or wrinkles This is achieved thanks to a met ...

Using False Colors to Protect Visual Privacy of Sensitive Content

Touradj Ebrahimi

Many privacy protection tools have been proposed for preserving privacy. Tools for protection of visual privacy available today lack either all or some of the important properties that are expected from such tools. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a si ...

Multiscale guided deblurring: Chromatic aberration correction in color and near-infrared imaging

Sabine Süsstrunk, Yue Lu, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani

Chromatic aberration, caused by photographic lens imperfections, results in the image of only one spectral channel being sharp, while the other channels are blurred depending on their wavelengths difference with the sharp channel. We study chromatic aberra ...

An Interactive Tool for Gamut Masking

Sabine Süsstrunk, Cheryl Shaulya Lau, Ying Song

Artists often want to change the colors of an image to achieve a particular aesthetic goal. For example, they might limit colors to a warm or cool color scheme to create an image with a certain mood or feeling. Gamut masking is a technique that artists use ...
