The feature maps of different scales of the source image are extracted through five times of down-sampling, and then the infrared and visible image feature maps of the same scale are input to the fusion layer based on the attention model to obtain an enhanced fusion feature map. Finally, the small-scale fusion feature map is up-sampled five times, and then added to the feature map of the same scale after up-sampling, until the scale is consistent with the source image, and the multi-scale fusion of the feature map is realized. Experiments compare the entropy, standard deviation, mutual information, edge retention, wavelet feature mutual information, visual information fidelity, and fusion efficiency of fused images under different fusion frameworks. The method in this paper is superior to the comparison algorithm in most indicators, and the target details are obvious and the outline are clear in the fused images..

First, the gradient direction histogram feature HOG and color histogram feature are extracted, and the correlation filtering response of the two features is adaptively fused to maximize the tracking quality. In the tracking process, a high-quality filter template is stored according to the quality of the response map, and the quality difference between the high-quality template and normal update template is used to detect the occlusion of the target. When the target occlusion disappears, the template of the tracker traces back to the high-quality template to retrack the target. According to the experimental results for OTB100 and UAV123, this algorithm has a better performance than other similar correlation filtering algorithms and can still track well in the case of target occlusion..

First, the global grayscale transAiming at the problems of low contrast and blurred details of images captured under low-light conditions due to the influence of light and the environment, important information is lost, and an image enhancement method based on grayscale transformation and improved Retinex is proposed. First, the global grayscale transformation function optimized by the gravity search algorithm(GSA) is used to perform grayscale transformation on the grayscale image of each RGB channel of the image to enhance the image illumination intensity and make it closer to the uniform illumination scene. The image is then converted to the HSV color space. The V channel (luminance channel) is processed by the improved multi-scale Retinex (MSR) algorithm; range-based adaptive bilateral filtering and Gabor filtering are used as the surround function of the Retinex algorithm, and the characteristics of the two filters are combined to enhance the brightness and detail of the image. Finally, gamma correction is used to avoid image color casts caused by image fusion. The experimental results show that the enhanced image processed by this method is better than that processed by other methods in subjective and objective evaluation, the color distortion of the image is smaller, and the details are clearer, which paves the way for the subsequent application of the image..

Taking advantage of the high absorption intensity of methane at a wavelength of 1653.72 nm and its ability to eliminate the interference of other gases to To improve the detection accuracy of methane concentration, an experimental system based on tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy(TDLAS) technology was built. Taking advantage of the high absorption intensity of methane at a wavelength of 1653.72 nm and its ability to eliminate the interference of other gases to the greatest extent, methane concentration was detected by extracting the second harmonic signal. The heursure hard threshold algorithm, heursure soft threshold algorithm, and sqtwolog fixed threshold algorithm are used as the wavelet transform threshold algorithms, respectively; the sqtwolog fixed threshold algorithm is preferred as the wavelet transform threshold algorithm by analyzing the methane absorption signal spectrum, the methane second harmonic signal spectrum, the signal-to-noise ratio and root mean square error of the methane absorption signal obtained without denoising and after denoising. The results of the linear fitting experiment of methane standard gas with different concentrations and the repeatability experiment of methane standard gas of a specific concentration show that the noise interference can be effectively reduced by the wavelet transform using the sqtwolog fixed threshold algorithm. The goodness of fit R2 between the second-harmonic signal extracted after denoising and the real methane concentration was 0.984, indicating that the fitting effect was better. TDLAS technology combined with the wavelet transform denoising algorithm can realize the detection of methane concentration and improve the detection accuracy of methane concentration. TDLAS technology combined with the wavelet transform denoising algorithm can realize the detection of methane concentration and improve its detection accuracy..

The device, which uses a WindPoTo address the limitations of current dry eye diagnostic equipment in the market, such as high cost, large volume, and low accuracy of detection results due to the use of the frame difference method, this study proposes portable dry eye diagnostic equipment based on near-infrared images. The device, which uses a Windows computer based on near-infrared imaging, is portable and can be used to detect dry eye symptoms such as the tear film break-up time (TBUT), meibomian gland (MG), and tear meniscus height (TMH). The fractal box dimension method was used to detect TBUT to avoid the inaccuracy of the frame difference method. MG was detected using near-infrared (850 nm) fill light imaging technology, and the contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) algorithm was used to highlight the gland region, which can detect the area missing rate more accurately. To verify the accuracy of the test results, 50 samples were tested and compared with the CSO Antares instrument from Italy and the ICP OSA from SBM. The correlation coefficient between the TBUT and TMH measurements of the device and the results of the two controls was P<0.05, whereas the detection results were consistent; the accuracy and specificity of MG were 86% and 84%, respectively. The experimental results showed that the device can be used as a screening and diagnostic device for dry eye disease in eye and vision optics centers..

First, based on the C-V model, the radial distribution of an ultraviolet image of a disk-shaped insulator is studied. It is then compared with the infrared temperature-field curve to verify its rationality. Finally, the ultraviolet image characteristics of the wet-contaminated insulators with different electrical resistivities and wind speeds are studied. The results show that the C-V model has strong anti-interference performance when applied to image processing, and is suitable for the study of the radial discharge intensity of disk-shaped insulators. The ultraviolet flare area of the insulator increases with a decrease in the surface resistivity. The wind speed has an obvious influence on the discharge intensity of the disk-shaped insulator. The results provide a reference for evaluating the radial discharge intensity of disk-shaped insulators..

First, by introducing the edge energy term, the local control ability of the model is enhanced and the contour shift is effectively suppressed. Second, a radial basis function is used to replace the traditional length regularization term, which simplifies the calculation. Subsequently, the initialization process is omitted by introducing internal energy items, which reduces the running time of the algorithm. After the experimental verification, the average DSC was 0.9808, the average value was 0.025, and the algorithm running time was 66.8% lower than the overall average of the other models. The improved Chan-Vese model segmentation algorithms DSC and RSE are better than the GAC-CV, CV-RSF, regional level set, and multiphase-CV model segmentation algorithms..

First, based on the theory of tTo study the effect of the luminance gain of a third-generation low-light-level (LLL) image intensifier on the image quality, we compare and analyze the image quality of the output image under different gain conditions to improve the image quality of a third-generation image intensifier. First, based on the theory of the third-generation LLL image intensifier, it is proven that the luminance gain directly affects the image quality of the image intensifier. Then, via signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and resolution, two important parameters of the image quality evaluation, image quality evaluation system, and experimental equipment, are set up. Finally, the experimental results show that under moonless illumination, when the luminance gain is at the optimal value, the resolution of the output image is increased from 32 lp/mm to 40.3 lp/mm while the field of view is bright and clear. It has been proven that this research has guiding significance in how to obtain the best image quality of LLL night vision instruments by reasonably setting the luminance gain value in the night environment..
