In order to remove the noise in Low Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT) images and enhance the display effect of the denoised images, an LDCT image enhancement algorithm based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) was proposed. Firstly, GAN was combined with perceptual loss and structure loss to denoise the LDCT image. Then, dynamic gray?scale enhancement and edge contour enhancement were performed to the denoised image respectively. Finally, Non?Subsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) was used to decompose the enhanced image into multi?directional coefficient sub?images in the frequency domain, and the paired high? and low?frequency sub?images were adaptively fused with Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to reconstruct the enhanced Computed Tomography (CT) image. Using the real clinical data of the AAPM competition as the experimental dataset, the image denoising, enhancement, and fusion experiments were carried out. The results of the proposed method are 33.015 5 dB, 0.918 5, and 5.99 on Peak Signal?to?Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM), and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) respectively. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm retains the detailed information of the CT image while removing noise, and improves the brightness and contrast of the image, which helps doctors analyze the patient’s condition more accurately.

WEI Zhenyu, WEN Chang, XIE Kai, HE Jianbiao
Journal of Computer Applications    2018, 38 (4): 1146-1150.   DOI: 10.11772/j.issn.1001-9081.2017092154

To improve the face detection accuracy of mobile devices, a new real-time face detection algorithm for mobile devices was proposed. The improved Viola-Jones was used for a quick region segmentation to improve segmentation precision without decreasing segmentation speed. At the same time, the optical flow estimation method was used to propagate the features of discrete keyframes extracted by the sub-network of a convolution neural network to other non-keyframes, which increased the efficiency of convolution neural network. Experiments were conducted on YouTube video face database, a self-built one-minute face video database of 20 people and the real test items at different resolutions. The results show that the running speed is between 2.35 frames per second and 22.25 frames per second, reaching the average face detection level; the recall rate of face detection is increased from 65.93% to 82.5%-90.8% at rate of 10% false alarm, approaching the detection accuracy of convolution neural network, which satisfies the speed and accuracy requirements for real-time face detection of mobile devices.
