Face recognition can be installed in a surveillance system so that it can be used for monitoring, tracking and access control. An excellent, intelligent surveillance system should be sensitive to the objects far away from the camera. Unfortunately, due to the long-distance, objects like human faces captured by the camera are too small to identify. As to enhance the subtle color differences in the face image, in this paper though we first improve the resolution of the captured image using deep convolution neural networks (DCNNs). Then the efficient features are extracted and used to do classification. As for verifying the effectiveness of the proposed method, we used three databases including AR face database, Georgia Tech face database (GT) database, and Labelled Faces in the Wild (LFW) database, altogether, to conduct the training and testing. Compared to the existing approaches, experimental results show that the identification accuracy of the proposed method outperforms to any existing approaches.
Along with the progress of the times, the development of graphology has changed towards computerization. The fundamental problem in automated graphology is how to determine personality traits through digital handwriting using the principles of graphology. Although various models and approaches have been developed in research related to automated graphology, there are still obstacles to overcome such as the selection of preprocessing techniques and image processing algorithms to extract handwriting features and proper classification techniques to get maximum accuracy. Therefore, this study aims to design a reliable framework using image processing and machine learning approaches such as filtering, thresholding, and normalization to determine the personality traits through handwriting features. Then, handwriting features are classified according to the Big Five model. Experiments using the decision tree, SVM (kernel RBF), and KNN produced an accuracy above 99%. These results indicated that the proposed framework can be well applied to predict the personality of the Big Five model through handwriting analysis features.
One way to find out whether there is a stroke is to do a CT scan . But the results of the examination with a new CT scan can be obtained in quite a long time. In addition, sometimes there are differences of opinion between doctors and radiologists regarding what is seen from the results of the examination. This research was conducted to produce a software that can later be integrated with the existing system on the CT Scan tool so that it can immediately be known whether or not stroke is present from the CT Scan results. In this study, a dynamic image segmentation method is implemented, namely the watershed transformation method which will later produce regions as a feature for the stroke detection process carried out with the backpropagation algorithm. From experiments conducted on CT scan images of the brain, this method can detect stroke well. The results obtained are 100% for training data and 90% for test data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
