The main objective is to provide optimal solution between expensive safe design that utilizes continuous street lighting system at night for the entire road, or inexpensive design that sacrifices the safety, relying on using vehicles lighting, to eliminate the problem of high cost energy consumption during the night operation of the road. By taking into account both of these factors, smart lighting automation system is proposed using Pattern Recognition Technique applied on vehicle number-plates. In this proposal, the road is sectionalized into zones, and based on smart Pattern Recognition Technique, the control system of the road lighting illuminates only the zone that the vehicles pass through. Economic analysis is provided in this paper to support the value of using this design of lighting control system.展开更多

To do so an experiment was assembled, composed by a standard microscope with two step motors coupled to its knobs in order to move the microscope in x and y directions and a web cam which was mounted in the top of the microscope responsible for to acquire images from the smear. The step motors and the web cam are controlled by a microcomputer PC standard via software developed inDelphi. The motors use the parallel port to communicate with the PC and the camera use the USB port. The main idea is to set an initial point into the smear and the automated system will carry over the smear acquiring images (frames with 640 × 480 pixels) and counting the white blood cells encountered. The double histogram threshold technique is implemented to initially exclude the red cells from the image leaving only the white ones. Preliminaries results are obtained and show that the system is quite fast and has a good capacity of selection, even when different kinds of smear are used.展开更多

In the first step, the gray-value distribution of the given image is reshaped to have larger inter-class variance and less intra-class variance. In the sec- ond step, the discriminant-based methods or clustering-based methods are performed on the reformed distribution. It is focused on the typical clustering methods-Gaussian mixture model （GMM） and its variant to demonstrate the feasibility of the framework. Due to the independence of the first step in its second step, it can be integrated into the pixel-based and the histogram-based methods to improve their segmentation quality. The experiments on artificial and real images show that the framework can achieve effective and robust segmentation results.展开更多

The proposed method is comprised of four main stages. The first stage uses the wavelet decomposition to extract low fre- quency subimages from original face images and omits the other three subimages. The second stage concerns the application of IMED to face images. In the third stage, 2DPCA is employed to extract the face features from the processed results in the second stage. Finally, Support Vector Machine (SVM) is applied to classify the extracted face features. Experimental results on the AR face image database show that the proposed method yields better recognition performance in comparison with the 2DPCA method that is not combined with IMED.展开更多

The analysing results made by this system are more accurate and reliable than those by the naked eye and grid for analysing photocclusal image. We analysed photocclusal images for a patient with prematurity of lower first right molar be fore and after occlusal adjustment with the system. The result appeared that occlusal adjustment mainly brought about distributive variation of occlusal stress rather than alteration of absolute value of overall occlusal force.展开更多

Previous attempts at automatic vision-based recog-nition of Arabic Sign Language mainly focused on finger spelling and recognizing isolated gestures. In this paper we report the first continuous Arabic Sign Language by building on existing research in feature extraction and pattern recognition. The development of the presented work required collecting a continuous Arabic Sign Language database which we designed and recorded in cooperation with a sign language expert. We intend to make the collected database available for the research community. Our system which we based on spatio-temporal feature extraction and hidden Markov models has resulted in an average word recognition rate of 94%, keeping in the mind the use of a high perplex-ity vocabulary and unrestrictive grammar. We compare our proposed work against existing sign language techniques based on accumulated image difference and motion estimation. The experimental results section shows that the pro-posed work outperforms existing solutions in terms of recognition accuracy.展开更多

By analyzing a set of sample color images, coherent regions of homogeneous textures are extracted. A multi-channel filtering technique is used for texture-based image segmentation, combined with a modified Fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering algorithm. This modified FCM clustering algorithm includes both the local spatial information from neighboring pixels, and the spatial Euclidian distance to the cluster’s center of gravity. For each area of interest, state-of-the-art texture descriptors are then computed and stored, along with corresponding color information. These texture descriptors and the color information are used for colorization of a grayscale image with similar textures. Given a grayscale image to be colorized, the segmentation and feature extraction processes are repeated. The texture descriptors are used to perform Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). The colorization process is performed by Chroma replacement. This research finds numerous applications, ranging from classic film restoration and enhancement, to adding valuable information into medical and satellite imaging. Also, this can be used to enhance the detection of objects from x-ray images at the airports.展开更多
