The detection of orthoimage mosaicking seamlines by means of wavelet transform was examined. Radiometric alignment was omitted, giving priority to the issue of seamlines which bypass locations where there is a parallax between orthoimages. The importance of this issue is particularly relevant for images with very high resolution. In order to create a barrier image between orthoimages, the redundant wavelet transform variant known as MODWT-MRA was used. While more computationally complex than the frequently used DWT, it enables very good multiresolution edge detection. An IT prototype was developed on the basis of the described concept, and several cases of seamline detection were tested on the basis of data with a resolution of 10 cm to 1 m. The correct seamline location was obtained for each test case. This result opens the door to future expansion of the radiometric alignment method, which is also based on wavelets.

An edge detection algorithm is developed for coal gangue images, and the method has two advantages compared with traditional ones. Firstly, multi-resolution analysis of wavelet transform can improve the quality of edge detection. Secondly, the algorithm is faster for real time. Since the threshold directly from the coefficients of wavelet transform, the rate of recognition for coal gangue is highly raised. The experiment results show that the method is an efficient edge detection algorithm for extraction edges from the noised images of coal gangues.

The existing edge detection algorithms with wavelet transform need to artificially set the threshold value and are lack of flexibility.To salve the limitations, in this paper, we propose a WT(wavelet transform)-based edge detection algorithm with adaptive threshold, which uses threshold value iteration method to achieve adaptive threshold setting. Comparison of experiment results for the CT image shows that the method which improve the clarity and continuity of the image edge can effectively distinguish edge and noise, and get more completely information of the edge. It has good application value in the fields of medical clinical diagnosis and image processing.
