This paper presents the modification of a previously developed algorithm using fractional order calculus and its implementation on mobile-embedded devices such as smartphones. The system performs enhancement on three categories of images such as those exhibiting uneven illumination, faded features/colors and hazy appearance. The key contributions include the simplified scheme for illumination correction, contrast enhancement and de-hazing using fractional derivative-based spatial filter kernels. These are achieved without resorting to logarithmic image processing, histogram-based statistics and complex de-hazing techniques employed by conventional algorithms. The simplified structure enables ease of implementation of the algorithm on mobile devices as an image processing application. Results indicate that the fractional order version of the algorithm yields good results relative to the integer order version and other algorithms from the literature.

During the last decenny, Digital Image Processing (D.I.P.) has been introduced in astronomical studies to allow the information extraction.In a first step, D.I.P. has been used essentially to provide enhanced images (noise reduction, deconvolution, contrast enhancement), to reduce geometrical or photometrical distorsions and to extract rough data. So, a few reference date are needed (some comparison lines for example).

In a recent microscopy discussion group, a correspondent questioned the use of a contrast enhancement method applied to a microscopy image for publication. What kinds of image processing, folk asked, are “acceptable” in a general sense? What kinds of image processing should be noted in the text or caption and what kind of images should be archived?It is an interesting set of questions, and I face them wearing three hats, I am a forensic pathologist who performs forensic image interpretation in the investigation of homicide and assault, an anatomic pathologist with an interest in confocal microscopy, and a computer scientist with training in image processing and computer vision. Image processing is part and parcel of my everyday work. I use tools such as contrast enhancement, debarring, and photogrammetry for image interpretation. I build tools for visualization in my confocal work. I collaborate in the design of data acquisition devices for the evaluation of crime scenes and bodily injury.

In this paper, multiple blind watermark algorithm based on wavelet packet transform (WPT) and two-dimensional chaos image scramble is put forward. In the sub-images of WPT, multiple watermarks are embedded and distilled blindly. Meantime, the image contrast enhancement to hidden information before hand can improve its robustness effectively. In order to improve the security, two-dimensional chaos image scramble algorithm is designed. Experimental results show that the multiple blind watermark algorithm has good invisibleness, security and robustness to common image processing and noise attack.
