However, due to variations of text and complexity of background, detecting text in scene images becomes a critical and challenging task. In this paper, we present a novel method to detect text from scene images. Firstly, we decompose scene images into background and text components using morphological component analysis(MCA), which will reduce the adverse effects of complex backgrounds on the detection results.In order to improve the performance of image decomposition,two discriminative dictionaries of background and text are learned from the training samples. Moreover, Laplacian sparse regularization is introduced into our proposed dictionary learning method which improves discrimination of dictionary. Based on the text dictionary and the sparse-representation coefficients of text, we can construct the text component. After that, the text in the query image can be detected by applying certain heuristic rules. The results of experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

The results showed that northward movement of the summer rain belt was a wavelike propagation, which was always accompanied by rainfall breaks and could be treated as one event under time scale of about 1 month only. The first 4 EOFs accounted for 28% and 35% of total variance from observation and reanalysis, respectively, and were roughly consistent with each other. The first and third EOFs for observation mainly represented interweekly, interseasonal and interannual variations and contained some summer intraseasonal fluctuations also. The second and fourth ones mainly represented some rather strong summer intraseasonal fluctuations for a paticular year and contained interweekly, interseasonal and interannual variations also. Although there is still room for improvement, the ECMWF reanalysis is the best available dataset with global coverage and daily variability.展开更多

Discrete wavelet analysis is used to decompose the stabilogram into several timescale components (i.e. detail wavelet coefficients and approximation wavelet coefficients). Whereas, the modified PCA decomposition is applied to decompose the stabilogram into three components, namely: trend, rambling and trembling. Based on the modified PCA analysis, the trace of analytic trembling and rambling in the complex plan highlights a unique rotation center. The same property is found when considering the detail wavelet coefficients. Based on this property, the area of the circle in which 95% of the trace’s data points are located, is extracted to provide important information about the postural equilibrium status of healthy subjects (average age 31 ± 11 years). Based on experimental results, this parameter seems to be a valuable parameter in order to highlight the effect of visual entries, stabilogram direction, gender and age on the postural stability. Obtained results show also that wavelets and the modified PCA decomposition can discriminate the subjects by gender which is particularly interesting in biometric applications and human stability simulation. Moreover, both techniques highlight the fact that male are less stable than female and the fact that there is no correlation between human stability and his age (under 60).展开更多
