This study aims to implement a modulation recognition system on two approaches to machine learning techniques, the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). From a statistical and spectral analysis of signals, nine key differentiation features are extracted and used as input vectors for each trained model. The feature extraction is performed by using the Hilbert transform, the forward and inverse Fourier transforms. The experiments with the AMC Master dataset classify ten (10) types of analog and digital modulations. AM_DSB_FC, AM_DSB_SC, AM_USB, AM_LSB, FM, MPSK, 2PSK, MASK, 2ASK, MQAM are put forward in this article. For the simulation of the chosen model, signals are polluted by the Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). The simulation results show that the best identification rate is the MLP neuronal method with 90.5% of accuracy after 10 dB signal-to-noise ratio value, with a shift of more than 15% from the k-nearest neighbors’ algorithm.展开更多

In this paper, the VQ distortion based HMM is described, and it is compared with the conventional HMMs and their speech recognition performance through the experiments on speaker independent spoken digit recognition. From these comparisons, we confirm that the new method is better than the traditional HMMs.展开更多

One of the main characteristics of aU Arabic digits is polysyllabic words except for zero. The performance analysis is based on different features of phonetic isolated Arabic digits.

The MFCC based recognition system achieves the best average correct recognition. On the other hand, the Yule-Walker based recognition system achieves the worst average correct recognition.展开更多

However, these systems lagged in terms of time and memory. These two issues are very critical issues especially for real time applications. Therefore, using Feature Selection (FS) with suitable machine learning technique for digit recognition contributes to facilitate solving the issues of time and memory by minimizing the number of features used to train the model. This paper examines various FS methods with several classification techniques using MNIST dataset. In addition, models of different algorithms (i.e. linear, non-linear, ensemble, and deep learning) are implemented and compared in order to study their suitability for digit recognition. The objective of this study is to identify a subset of relevant features that provides at least the same accuracy as the complete set of features in addition to reducing the required time, computational complexity, and required storage for digit recognition. The experimental results proved that 60% of the complete set of features reduces the training time up to third of the required time using the complete set of features. Moreover, the classifiers trained using the proposed subset achieve the same accuracy as the classifiers trained using the complete set of features.展开更多

In this work, a new Multiple-Cell Size (MCS) approach is being proposed for utilizing Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) features and a Support Vector Machine (SVM) based classifier for efficient classification of Handwritten Digits. The HOG based technique is sensitive to the cell size selection used in the relevant feature extraction computations. Hence a new MCS approach has been used to perform HOG analysis and compute the HOG features. The system has been tested on the Benchmark MNIST Digit Database of handwritten digits and a classification accuracy of 99.36% has been achieved using an Independent Test set strategy. A Cross-Validation analysis of the classification system has also been performed using the 10-Fold Cross-Validation strategy and a 10-Fold classification accuracy of 99.26% has been obtained. The classification performance of the proposed system is superior to existing techniques using complex procedures since it has achieved at par or better results using simple operations in both the Feature Space and in the Classifier Space. The plots of the system’s Confusion Matrix and the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) show evidence of the superior performance of the proposed new MCS HOG and SVM based digit classification system.展开更多

文摘In this paper,Modified Multi-scale Segmentation Network(MMU-SNet)method is proposed for Tamil text recognition.Handwritten texts from digi-tal writing pad notes are used for text recognition.Handwritten words recognition for texts written from digital writing pad through text file conversion are challen-ging due to stylus pressure,writing on glass frictionless surfaces,and being less skilled in short writing,alphabet size,style,carved symbols,and orientation angle variations.Stylus pressure on the pad changes the words in the Tamil language alphabet because the Tamil alphabets have a smaller number of lines,angles,curves,and bends.The small change in dots,curves,and bends in the Tamil alphabet leads to error in recognition and changes the meaning of the words because of wrong alphabet conversion.However,handwritten English word recognition and conversion of text files from a digital writing pad are performed through various algorithms such as Support Vector Machine(SVM),Kohonen Neural Network(KNN),and Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)for offline and online alphabet recognition.The proposed algorithms are compared with above algorithms for Tamil word recognition.The proposed MMU-SNet method has achieved good accuracy in predicting text,about 96.8%compared to other traditional CNN algorithms.
文摘Digit Recognition is an essential element of the process of scanning and converting documents into electronic format. In this work, a new Multiple-Cell Size (MCS) approach is being proposed for utilizing Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) features and a Support Vector Machine (SVM) based classifier for efficient classification of Handwritten Digits. The HOG based technique is sensitive to the cell size selection used in the relevant feature extraction computations. Hence a new MCS approach has been used to perform HOG analysis and compute the HOG features. The system has been tested on the Benchmark MNIST Digit Database of handwritten digits and a classification accuracy of 99.36% has been achieved using an Independent Test set strategy. A Cross-Validation analysis of the classification system has also been performed using the 10-Fold Cross-Validation strategy and a 10-Fold classification accuracy of 99.26% has been obtained. The classification performance of the proposed system is superior to existing techniques using complex procedures since it has achieved at par or better results using simple operations in both the Feature Space and in the Classifier Space. The plots of the system’s Confusion Matrix and the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) show evidence of the superior performance of the proposed new MCS HOG and SVM based digit classification system.

文摘Digit recognition from a natural scene text in video surveillance/broadcasting applications is a challenging research task due to blurred, font variations, twisted, and non-uniform color distribution issues with a digit in a natural scene to be recognized. In this paper, to solve the digit number recognition problem, a principal-axis based topology contour descriptor with support vector machine （SVM） classification is proposed. The contributions of this paper include： a） a local descriptor with SVM classification for digit recognition, b） higher accuracy than the state-of-the art methods, and c） low computational power （0.03 second/digit recognition）, which make this method adoptable to real-time applications.
文摘A VQ based efficient speech recognition method is introduced, and the key parameters of this method are comparatively studied. This method is especially designed for mandarin speaker dependent small size word set recognition. It has less complexity, less resource consumption but higher ARR (accurate recognition rate) compared with traditional HMM or NN approach. A large scale test on the task of 11 mandarin digits recognition shows that the WER(word error rate) can reach 3 86%. This method is suitable for being embedded in PDA (personal digital assistant), mobile phone and so on to perform voice controlling like digits dialing, name dialing, calculating, voice commanding, etc.

文摘The recognition of dairy cow behavior is essential for enhancing health management,reproductive efficiency,production performance,and animal welfare.This paper addresses the challenge of modality loss in multimodal dairy cow behavior recognition algorithms,which can be caused by sensor or video signal disturbances arising from interference,harsh environmental conditions,extreme weather,network fluctuations,and other complexities inherent in farm environments.This study introduces a modality mapping completion network that maps incomplete sensor and video data to improve multimodal dairy cow behavior recognition under conditions of modality loss.By mapping incomplete sensor or video data,the method applies a multimodal behavior recognition algorithm to identify five specific behaviors:drinking,feeding,lying,standing,and walking.The results indicate that,under various comprehensive missing coefficients(λ),the method achieves an average accuracy of 97.87%±0.15%,an average precision of 95.19%±0.4%,and an average F1 score of 94.685%±0.375%,with an overall accuracy of 94.67%±0.37%.This approach enhances the robustness and applicability of cow behavior recognition based on multimodal data in situations of modality loss,resolving practical issues in the development of digital twins for cow behavior and providing comprehensive support for the intelligent and precise management of farms.
