Abstract:
A novel method for color image enhancement is proposed as an extension of the scalar-diffusion-shock-filter coupling model, where noisy and blurred images are denoised and sharpened. The proposed model is based on using the single vectors of the gradient magnitude and the second derivatives as a manner to relate different color components of the image. This model can be viewed as a generalization of the Bettahar-Stambouli filter to multivalued images. The proposed algorithm is more efficient than the mentioned filter and some previous works at color images denoising and deblurring without creating false colors.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
