The multisource image fusion has become an active topic in the last few years owing to its higher segmentation rate. To enhance the accuracy of multimodal pig-body feature segmentation, a multisource image fusion method was employed. Nevertheless, the conventional multisource image fusion methods can not extract superior contrast and abundant details of fused image. To superior segment shape feature and detect temperature feature, a new multisource image fusion method was presented and entitled as NSST-GF-IPCNN. Firstly, the multisource images were resolved into a range of multiscale and multidirectional subbands by Nonsubsampled Shearlet Transform (NSST). Then, to superior describe fine-scale texture and edge information, even-symmetrical Gabor filter and Improved Pulse Coupled Neural Network (IPCNN) were used to fuse low and high-frequency subbands, respectively. Next, the fused coefficients were reconstructed into a fusion image using inverse NSST. Finally, the shape feature was extracted using automatic threshold algorithm and optimized using morphological operation. Nevertheless, the highest temperature of pig-body was gained in view of segmentation results. Experiments revealed that the presented fusion algorithm was able to realize 2.102-4.066% higher average accuracy rate than the traditional algorithms and also enhanced efficiency.

This paper presents a decoding technique for speech recognition using uncertainty information from feature compensation method to improve the speech recognition performance in the low SNR condition. Traditional feature compensation algorithms have difficulty in estimating clean feature parameters in adverse environment. Those algorithms focus on the point estimation of desired features. The point estimation of feature compensation method degrades speech recognition performance when incorrectly estimated features enter into the decoder of speech recognition. In this paper, we apply the uncertainty information from well-known feature compensation method, such as IMM, to the recognition engine. Applied technique shows better performance in the Aurora-2 DB.

The features extracted by convolutional neural networks are more descriptive of images than traditional features, and their convolutional layers are more suitable for retrieving images than are fully connected layers. The convolutional layer features will consume considerable time and memory if used directly to match an image. Therefore, this paper proposes a feature weighting and region integration method for convolutional layer features to form global feature vectors and subsequently use them for image matching. First, the 3D feature of the last convolutional layer is extracted, and the convolutional feature is subsequently weighted again to highlight the edge information and position information of the image. Next, we integrate several regional eigenvectors that are processed by sliding windows into a global eigenvector. Finally, the initial ranking of the retrieval is obtained by measuring the similarity of the query image and the test image using the cosine distance, and the final mean Average Precision (mAP) is obtained by using the extended query method for rearrangement. We conduct experiments using the Oxford5k and Paris6k datasets and their extended datasets, Paris106k and Oxford105k. These experimental results indicate that the global feature extracted by the new method can better describe an image.

Hyperspectral data consists of more than 200 spectral bands that are highly correlated. In order to utilize hyperspectral data for classification, dimensional reduction or feature extraction is desired. By applying feature extraction, computational complexity of classification can be reduced and classification accuracy may be improved. In this paper, a genetic algorithm based feature extraction technique is proposed. Measure from discriminant analysis is utilized as optimization criterion. A subset of spectral bands is selected by genetic algorithm. Dimension of feature space is further reduced by linear transformation. Feasibility of the proposed technique is evaluated with AVIRIS data.

In this paper, we proposed new speech feature parameter through parts-based feature extraction of speech spectrum using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF). NMF can effectively reduce dimension for multi-dimensional data through matrix factorization under the non-negativity constraints, and dimensionally reduced data should be presented parts-based features of input data. For speech feature extraction, we applied Mel-scaled filter bank outputs to inputs of NMF, than used outputs of NMF for inputs of speech recognizer. From recognition experiment result, we could confirm that proposed feature parameter is superior in recognition performance than mel frequency cepstral coefficient (MFCC) that is used generally.

This paper aims to find the most effective feature selection method for the sake of opinion mining tasks. Basically, opinion mining tasks belong to sentiment analysis, which is to categorize opinions of the online texts into positive and negative from a text mining point of view. By using the five product groups dataset such as apparel, books, DVDs, electronics, and kitchen, TF-IDF and Bag-of-Words(BOW) fare calculated to form the product review feature sets. Next, we applied the feature selection methods to see which method reveals most robust results. The results show that the stacking classifier based on those features out of applying Information Gain feature selection method yields best result.

In this paper, a novel method is proposed to build an ensemble of classifiers by using a feature selection schema. The feature selection schema identifies the best feature sets that affect the arrhythmia classification. Firstly, a number of feature subsets are extracted by applying the feature selection schema to the original dataset. Then classification models are built by using the each feature subset. Finally, we combine the classification models by adopting a voting approach to form a classification ensemble. The voting approach in our method involves both classification error rate and feature selection rate to calculate the score of the each classifier in the ensemble. In our method, the feature selection rate depends on the extracting order of the feature subsets. In the experiment, we applied our method to arrhythmia dataset and generated three top disjointed feature sets. We then built three classifiers based on the top-three feature subsets and formed the classifier ensemble by using the voting approach. Our method can improve the classification accuracy in high dimensional dataset. The performance of each classifier and the performance of their ensemble were higher than the performance of the classifier that was based on whole feature space of the dataset. The classification performance was improved and a more stable classification model could be constructed with the proposed approach.

Feature models are widely used to model commonalities and variabilities among products during software product line development. Feature configurations are generated by selecting the features to be included in individual products. Automated tools to identify errors or inconsistencies in the feature models and configurations are essential to successful software product line engineering. This paper proposes a verification technique and tool based on semantic web technologies such as OWL, SWRL and Protege API. This approach checks the feature model and configuration based on predefined rules and provides information on existence of errors as well as the kinds of those errors. This approach is extensible due to ease of rule modification and may be easily applied to other environments because semantic web technologies can be easily integrated with other programming environments. This paper demonstrates how various semantic web-related technologies can support automatic verification of one kind of software development artifact, the feature model.

In this paper, we present a graphics processing unit (GPU)-based matching technique for the purpose of fast feature matching between different images. The scale invariant feature transform algorithm developed by Lowe for various feature matching applications, such as stereo vision and object recognition, is computationally intensive. To address this problem, we propose a matching technique optimized for GPUs to perform computations in less time. We optimize GPUs for fast computation of keypoints to make our system quick and efficient. The proposed method uses a self-organizing map feature matching technique to perform efficient matching between the different images. The experiments are performed on various image sets to examine the performance of the system under varying conditions, such as image rotation, scaling, and blurring. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing feature matching methods, resulting in fast feature matching due to the optimization of the GPU.

This paper investigates the description ability of chaotic feature vector to dynamic textures. First a chaotic feature and other features are calculated from each pixel intensity series. Then these features are combined to a chaotic feature vector. Therefore a video is modeled as a feature vector matrix. Next by the aid of bag of words framework, we explore the representation ability of the proposed chaotic feature vector. Finally we investigate recognition rate between different combinations of chaotic features. Experimental results show the merit of chaotic feature vector for pixel intensity series representation.
