The receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was used to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of the Bayesian model.RESULTS: A total of 1000 eyes fundus images from diabetic patients in which 298 eyes were diagnosed as DR by two ophthalmologists. The Bayesian model was trained using four extracted textures including contrast, entropy, angular second moment and correlation using a training dataset. The Bayesian model achieved a sensitivity of 0.949 and a specificity of 0.928 in the validation dataset. The area under the ROC curve was 0.938, and the 10-fold cross validation method showed that the average accuracy rate is 93.5%.CONCLUSION: Textures extracted by grey level cooccurrence can be useful information for DR diagnosis, and a trained Bayesian model based on these textures can be an effective tool for DR screening among diabetic patients.展开更多

Because most of their larvae are pests, this research is not only meaningful for the popularization of science but also important to the agricultural production and the environment. Texture as a notable feature is widely used in digital image recognition technology; for describing the texture, an extremely effective method, graylevel co-occurrence matrix(GLCM), has been proposed and used in automatic identification systems. However,according to most of the existing works, GLCM is computed by the whole image, which likely misses some important features in local areas. To solve this problem, this paper presents a new method based on the GLCM features extruded from three image blocks, and a weight-based k-nearest neighbor(KNN) search algorithm used for classifier design. With this method, a butterfly classification system works on ten butterfly species which are hard to identify by shape features. The final identification accuracy is 98%.展开更多

The diagnosis process has been done by visual interpretation of experienced pathologists. However, it is difficult to separate the favor benign from borderline types. Thus, this paper presents a classification approach based on 3D nuclei model to classify favor benign and borderline types of follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA) in cytological specimens. The proposed method utilized 3D gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) and random forest classifier. It was applied to 22 data sets of FN images. Furthermore, the use of 3D GLCM was compared with 2D GLCM to evaluate the classification results. From experimental results, the proposed system achieved 95.45% of the classification. The use of 3D GLCM was better than 2D GLCM according to the accuracy of classification. Consequently, the proposed method probably helps a pathologist as a prescreening tool.展开更多

In this paper, the propose system aims to automatically classify the white blood cells (leukocytes) on a given microscopic image. The classifications of leukocytes are performed based on the combination of color and texture features of the blood cell images. The developed system classifies the leukocytes in one of the five categories (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes). In the preprocessing stage, the system starts with converting the microscopic images from Red Green Blue (RGB) color space to Hue Saturation Value (HSV) color space. Next, the system splits the Hue and Saturation features from the Value feature. For both Hue and Saturation features, the system processes their color information using the Feature Selection method and the Window Cropping method;while the Value feature is processed by its texture information using the Co-occurrence matrix method. The final recognition stage is performed using the Euclidean distance method. The combination of the Feature Selection and Co-occurrence Matrix methods gives the best overall recognition accuracies for classifying leukocyte images.展开更多

The quantitative characterization of material microstructures is essential for the performance prediction and hence the material design. At present,the quantitative characterization methods mainly rely on the microstructure characterization of shape, size, distribution,and volume fraction, which related to the mechanical properties. These traditional methods have been applied for several decades and the subjectivity of human factors induces unavoidable errors. In this paper, we try to bypass the traditional operations and identify the relationship between the microstructures and the material properties by the texture of image itself directly. The statistical approach is based on gray level Co-occurrence matrix（GLCM）, allowing an objective and repeatable study on material microstructures. We first present how to identify GLCM with the optimal parameters, and then apply the method on three systems with different microstructures. The results show that GLCM can reveal the interface information and microstructures complexity with less human impact. Naturally, there is a good correlation between GLCM and the mechanical properties.展开更多

In previousresearches, there have been various approaches to detecting double JPEGcompression with different quantization matrices. However, the detectionof double JPEG color images with the same quantization matrix is stilla challenging task. An effective detection approach to extract features isproposed in this paper by combining traditional analysis with ConvolutionalNeural Networks (CNN). On the one hand, the number of nonzero pixels andthe sum of pixel values of color space conversion error are provided with 12-dimensional features through experiments. On the other hand, the roundingerror, the truncation error and the quantization coefficient matrix are used togenerate a total of 128-dimensional features via a specially designed CNN. Insuch aCNN, convolutional layers with fixed kernel of 1×1 and Dropout layersare adopted to prevent overfitting of the model, and an average pooling layeris used to extract local characteristics. In this approach, the Support VectorMachine (SVM) classifier is applied to distinguishwhether a given color imageis primarily or secondarily compressed. The approach is also suitable for thecase when customized needs are considered. The experimental results showthat the proposed approach is more effective than some existing ones whenthe compression quality factors are low.展开更多

A series of methods such as high voltage electric field treatment,the transfer matrix method and the CIE standard colorimetric system were simulated to obtain the chromaticity coordinates and to analyze the color changes of KGM particles. The results revealed that as the particle diameter increases,the structural color of KGM particles deflects towards the yellow wavelength within the visible spectrum; and as the reaction temperature rises,the structural color deflects towards the blue and violet wavelengths within the visible spectrum.展开更多

The influence of freshwater and industrial and municipal sewage along the eastern coast of the bay was clearly evident as CDOM level- s （defined as a30s）, and dissolved organic carbon （DOC） concentrations were well correlated with salinity during all the cruises. Moreover, DOC concentrations were significantly correlated with chlorophyll a con- centrations in the surface microlayer as well as in the subsurface water. The concentrations of DOC and CDOM displayed a gradually decreasing trend from the northwestern and eastern coast to the central hay, and the values and gradients of their concentrations on the eastern coast were generally higher than those on the western coast. In addition, CDOM and DOC levels were generally higher in the surface microlayer than in the subsurface water. In comparison with DOC, CDOM exhibited a greater extent of enrichment in the microlayer in each cruise, with average enrichment factor （EF） values of 1.38 and 1.84, respectively. Four fluorescent components were identified from the surface microlayer and subsurface water samples and could be distinguished as peak A, peak T, peak B and peak M. For all the cruises, peak A levels were higher in the surface microlayer than in the subsurface water. This pattern of variation might be attributed to the terrestrial input.展开更多

文摘Texture analysis methods offer substantial advantages and potential in examining macro-topographic features of dunes.Despite these advantages,comprehensive approaches that integrate digital elevation model(DEM)with quantitative texture features have not been fully developed.This study introduced an automatic classification framework for dunes that combines texture and topographic features and validated it through a typical coastal aeolian landform,namely,dunes in the Namib Desert.A three-stage approach was outlined:(1)segmentation of dune units was conducted using digital terrain analysis;(2)six texture features(angular second moment,contrast,correlation,variance,entropy,and inverse difference moment)were extracted from the gray-level co-occurrence matrix(GLCM)and subsequently quantified;and(3)texture–topographic indices were integrated into the random forest(RF)model for classification.The results show that the RF model fused with texture features can accurately identify dune morphological characteristics;through accuracy evaluation and remote sensing image verification,the overall accuracy reaches 78.0%(kappa coefficient=0.72),outperforming traditional spectral-based methods.In addition,spatial analysis reveals that coastal dunes exhibit complex texture patterns,with texture homogeneity being closely linked to dune-type transitions.Specifically,homogeneous textures correspond to simple and stable forms such as barchans,while heterogeneous textures are associated with complex or composite dunes.The complexity,periodicity,and directionality of texture features are highly consistent with the spatial distribution of dunes.Validation using high-resolution remote sensing imagery(Sentinel-2)further confirms that the method effectively clusters similar dunes and distinguishes different dune types.Additionally,the dune classification results have a good correspondence with changes in near-surface wind regimes.Overall,the findings suggest that texture features derived from DEM can accurately capture the dynamic characteristics of dune morphology,offering a novel approach for automatic dune classification.Compared with traditional methods,the developed approach facilitates large-scale and high-precision dune mapping while reducing the workload of manual interpretation,thus advancing research on aeolian geomorphology.
