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

This paper presents a low-cost approach for automatic detection and characterization of human veins from IR images. The proposed method uses image processing techniques including segmentation, feature extraction, and, pattern recognition algorithms. Initially, the IR images are preprocessed to enhance vein structures and reduce noise. Subsequently, a CLAHE algorithm is employed to extract vein regions based on their unique IR absorption properties. Features such as vein thickness, orientation, and branching patterns are extracted using mathematical morphology and directional filters. Finally, a classification framework is implemented to categorize veins and distinguish them from surrounding tissues or artifacts. A setup based on Raspberry Pi was used. Experimental results of IR images demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach in accurately detecting and characterizing human. The developed system shows promising for integration into applications requiring reliable and secure identification based on vein patterns. Our work provides an effective and low-cost solution for nursing staff in low and middle-income countries to perform a safe and accurate venipuncture.展开更多
