The palm print recognition is the most reliable authentication method in the biometrics. In this paper, using the efficient segmentation of the palm print region we propose the method of enabling the palm print recognition as the same method applicable to the finger print recognition. To achieve this, we propose the image processing procedures of the palm print segmentation and the feature extraction. We compare the matching result after extracting the features for the finger print and the palm print.

The construction industry has the highest occupational accidents/injuries among all industries. Korean government installed surveillance camera systems at construction sites to reduce occupational accident rates. Construction safety managers are monitoring potential hazards at the sites through surveillance system; however, the human capability of monitoring surveillance system with their own eyes has critical issues. Therefore, this study proposed to build a deep learning-based safety monitoring system that can obtain information on the recognition, location, identification of workers and heavy equipment in the construction sites by applying multiple-object tracking with instance segmentation. To evaluate the system's performance, we utilized the MS COCO and MOT challenge metrics. These results present that it is optimal for efficiently automating monitoring surveillance system task at construction sites.

In recent years, the image processing mechanisms are used widely in several medical areas for improving earlier detection and treatment stages, in which the time factor is very important to discover the disease in the patient as possible as fast, especially in various cancer tumors such as the liver cancer. Liver cancer has been attracting the attention of medical and sciatic communities in the latest years because of its high prevalence allied with the difficult treatment. Statistics indicate that liver cancer, throughout world, is the one that attacks the greatest number of people. Over the time, study of MR images related to cancer detection in the liver or abdominal area has been difficult. Early detection of liver cancer is very important for successful treatment. There are few methods available to detect cancerous cells. In this paper, an automatic approach that integrates the intensity-based segmentation and k-means clustering approach for detection of cancer region in MRI scan images of liver.

Phlegm smear testing for acid-fast bacilli (AFB) requires careful examination of tubercle bacilli under a microscope to distinguish between positive and negative findings. The biggest weakness of this method is the visual limitations of the examiners. It is also time-consuming, and mistakes may easily occur. This paper proposes a method of identifying tubercle bacilli that uses a computer instead of a human. To address the challenges of AFB testing, this study designs and investigates image systems that can be used to identify tubercle bacilli. The proposed system uses an electronic microscope to capture digital images that are then processed through feature extraction, image segmentation, image recognition, and neural networks to analyze tubercle bacilli. The proposed system can detect the amount of tubercle bacilli and find their locations. This paper analyzes 184 tubercle bacilli images. Fifty images are used to train the artificial neural network, and the rest are used for testing. The proposed system has a 95.6% successful identification rate, and only takes 0.8 seconds to identify an image.

Plants are very crucial for life on Earth. There is a wide variety of plant species available, and the number is increasing every year. Species knowledge is a necessity of various groups of society like foresters, farmers, environmentalists, educators for different work areas. This makes species identification an interdisciplinary interest. This, however, requires expert knowledge and becomes a tedious and challenging task for the non-experts who have very little or no knowledge of the typical botanical terms. However, the advancements in the fields of machine learning and computer vision can help make this task comparatively easier. There is still not a system so developed that can identify all the plant species, but some efforts have been made. In this study, we also have made such an attempt. Plant identification usually involves four steps, i.e. image acquisition, pre-processing, feature extraction, and classification. In this study, images from Swedish leaf dataset have been used, which contains 1,125 images of 15 different species. This is followed by pre-processing using Gaussian filtering mechanism and then texture and color features have been extracted. Finally, classification has been done using Multiclass-support vector machine, which achieved accuracy of nearly 93.26%, which we aim to enhance further.

이 논문에서는 곤충 발자국의 패턴을 인식하기 위해, 인식의 기본 단위인 세그먼트를 자동 추출하는 기법과 Trace transform을 이용하여 발자국 인식에 필요한 특징을 추출하는 기법을 제안하였다. Trace transform 방법을 이용하면 패턴의 이동, 회전, 반사에 불변하는 특징 값을 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 특징 값들은 곤충 발자국과 같이 다양한 변형이 존재하는 패턴을 인식하는 데에 적합하다. 특징 값을 도출하기 위한 첫 번째 단계로는 추출된 세그먼트에 대한 Trace transform을 통해 새로운 Trace 이미지를 생성시킨다. 그런 다음, 병렬로 표현되는 trace-line을 따라 특성 함수에 의해 특징들이 일차적으로 도출되고, 또 다시 도출된 특징들은 diametric, circus 단계의 함수를 거치면서 새로운 특징값으로 재구성된다. 2가지 서로 다른 곤충의 발자국 패턴을 이용하여 실험한 결과 곤충 발자국의 이동, 회전, 반사에 관계없이 인식에 적합한 특징 값들이 추출됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Early detection of endometrial carcinoma in uterus is essential for effective treatment. Endometrial carcinoma is the worst kind of endometrium cancer among the others since it is considerably more likely to affect the additional parts of the body if not detected and treated early. Non-invasive medical computer vision, also known as medical image processing, is becoming increasingly essential in the clinical diagnosis of various diseases. Such techniques provide a tool for automatic image processing, allowing for an accurate and timely assessment of the lesion. One of the most difficult aspects of developing an effective automatic categorization system is the absence of huge datasets. Using image processing and deep learning, this article presented an artificial endometrium cancer diagnosis system. The processes in this study include gathering a dermoscopy images from the database, preprocessing, segmentation using hybrid Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and optimizing the weights using the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). The characteristics of the damaged endometrium cells are retrieved using the feature extraction approach after the Magnetic Resonance pictures have been segmented. The collected characteristics are classified using a deep learning-based methodology called Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Bi-directional LSTM classifiers. After using the publicly accessible data set, suggested classifiers obtain an accuracy of 97% and segmentation accuracy of 93%.

Recently, researches on automatic recognition of human activities have been actively carried out with the emergence of various intelligent systems. Since a large amount of visual data can be secured through Closed Circuit Television, it is required to recognize human behavior in a dynamic situation rather than a static situation. In this paper, we propose new intelligent human activity recognition model using the trajectory information extracted from the video sequence. The proposed model consists of three steps: segmentation and partitioning of trajectory step, feature extraction step, and behavioral learning step. First, the entire trajectory is fuzzy partitioned according to the motion characteristics, and then temporal features and spatial features are extracted. Using the extracted features, four pedestrian behaviors were modeled by decision tree learning algorithm and performance evaluation was performed. The experiments in this paper were conducted using Caviar data sets. Experimental results show that trajectory provides good activity recognition accuracy by extracting instantaneous property and distinctive regional property.

영상분할은 컴퓨터비전 시스템에서 영상정보추출의 중요한 과정 중의 하나이다. 이중에서 퍼지 클러스터링 방법은 영상분할에 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 대부분의 퍼지 클러스터링 방법으로는 FCM 알고리즘이 사용된다. 그러나 FCM 알고리즘은 클러스터의 중심과 데이터간의 거리에 의존하기 때문에 클러스터 크기가 다를 경우에는 데이터가 오분류될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 클러스트 크기에 상관없이 데이터를 분류할 수 있는 평균내부거리를 이용한 퍼지 클러스터링 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 평균내부거리는 각 데이터로부터 해당 클러스터 중심까지의 거리를 평균한 값으로 클러스터의 크기와 밀도에 비례한다. 실험 결과를 통하여 제안된 방법이 분류 엔트로피와 적합도 함수에 의해서 좋은 결과를 보여주고 있음을 증명하였다.
