Introduction
Real-time images are often captured and processed without any buffer delays. Since most real-time images are captured from many sources, the quality of the image resolution may vary. However, due to recent advancements in image processing, there are various types of real-time image processing and enhancement techniques. Real-time image enhancement may lead to high computational overhead and delays in the transmission of the images, and to overcome these limitations, deep neural networks techniques (DNNs) and evolutionary optimization algorithms (EOAs) may be an asset moving forward. Deep neural networks (DNNs) is very popular due to big data support and automatically features selection, this will reduce the workload of scientists, and also CNN techniques will be used to increase accuracy as compared to machine learning methods. DNNs, like convolution neural networks (CNN), Deep adversarial network (DAN), long short-term memory (LSTM), autoencoder, and deep belief networks have been used to provide real-time image enhancement.
Using deep neural networks, various hidden layers present will capture important features of an image or a frame. When the image is captured on a real-time basis, it can be processed by deep neural networks more efficiently and effectively. However, there may be significant performance pressure on the processing and evaluation of real-time high resolution and multi-resolution images. This special issue provides an exemplary forum for researchers to discuss theories and ideas associated with real-time image enhancement using deep neural networks methods and evolutionary optimization algorithms. Also, this special issue discusses all the challenges and limitations of using deep neural networks models in real-time image processing.
