摘要：This paper deals about image processing of log internal decays using MATLAB technique. Specifically, image enhancement, image edge detection and decay area extraction and calculation on the two-dimension image of log inner decays that were derived by using the non-destructive inspection technique of stress wave were conducted. The results showed that the testing image of stress wave can visually reflect wood inner decay, and the image resolution can also be improved by using the functions of image enhancement and edge detection in MATLAB software. The detection precision of stress wave is closely associated with the ratio of log internal decay area to tested wood cross- sectional area. When the ratio between wood actual inner decay area and tested log cross-sectional area increased from 4.77% to 45.52%, the relative error between tested decay area and actual decay area reduced from 16.42% to 7.39%. The study has provided an advanced method to judge the degree of wood inner decay for most forest practioners and researchers. Through the image processing and computing on the images derived by stress wave testing, the accuracy of logs internal decay discrimination can be significantly improved
