This paper brings out a neoteric frame of reference for visual semantic based 3d video search and retrieval applications. Newfangled 3D retrieval application spotlight on shape analysis like object matching, classification and retrieval not only sticking up entirely with video retrieval. In this ambit, we delve into 3D-CBVR (Content Based Video Retrieval) concept for the first time. For this purpose we intent to hitch on BOVW and Mapreduce in 3D framework. Here, we tried to coalesce shape, color and texture for feature extraction. For this purpose, we have used combination of geometric & topological features for shape and 3D co-occurrence matrix for color and texture. After thriving extraction of local descriptors, TB-PCT (Threshold Based- Predictive Clustering Tree) algorithm is used to generate visual codebook. Further, matching is performed using soft weighting scheme with L₂ distance function. As a final step, retrieved results are ranked according to the Index value and produce results .In order to handle prodigious amount of data and Efficacious retrieval, we have incorporated HDFS in our Intellection. Using 3D video dataset, we fiture the performance of our proposed system which can pan out that the proposed work gives meticulous result and also reduce the time intricacy.

주문진 표준사와 사우디 아라비아의 Ras Al Khair 사질토 입자의 형상에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 광학현미경을 사용하여 200배 확대하여 해상도 $640{\times}320$으로 디지털 이미지를 촬영하였다. 사질토 입자의 디지털 이미지를 영상 처리를 통해 입자 경계면의 좌표를 추출하였다. 추출한 입자의 경계면 좌표를 복소 평면에 도시하고, 극형식으로 변환 후 퓨리에 변환을 실시하였다. 퓨리에 변환을 통해 추출된 각각의 계수 값들은 입자 형상의 특징을 반영하며, 좌표의 기준점 이동에 대해 불변하는 값으로 사질토 입자의 이미지에 대해 좌표의 기준점과 회전등에 관계없이 항상 같은 값을 갖게 되어 입자의 형상 분석에 적합하다. 각각의 계수 값을 입자의 등가 반경으로 정규화하여 퓨리에 기술자를 추출하여 입자의 형상을 정량적으로 분석하였다. -3에서 +3의 범위에 해당되는 주요 퓨리에 기술자들을 분석한 결과 주문진 표준사 입자의 경우 신장(elongation)이 가장 두드러진 형상의 특징이었으며 그다음으로는 비대칭성(asymmetry)이 두드러진 특징이었다. Ras Al Khair 사질토의 형상도 주문진 표준사와 같은 형상 특징을 나타냈다. 또한 퓨리에 기술자 분석 결과 작은 구조가 전체 구조와 비슷한 형태로 되풀이되는 프랙탈의 미세구조 특성이 나타나는 것으로 판단되었다. 해상도 $640{\times}320$과 해상도 $160{\times}80$의 주문진 표준사의 디지털 이미지를 비교한 결과 -3에서 +3에 해당되는 주요 퓨리에 기술자에 대해서는 해상도가 크게 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났으나 텍스쳐 분석에는 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

Motivated by the Weber's Law, this paper proposes an efficient and robust shape descriptor based on the perceptual stimulus model, called Weber's Law Shape Descriptor (WLSD). It is based on the theory that human perception of a pattern depends not only on the change of stimulus intensity, but also on the original stimulus intensity. Invariant to scale and rotation is the intrinsic properties of WLSD. As a global shape descriptor, WLSD has far lower computation complexity while is as discriminative as state-of-art shape descriptors. Experimental results demonstrate the strong capability of the proposed method in handling shape retrieval.

In the cursive handwriting recognition process, script trajectory segmentation and modeling represent an important task for large or open lexicon context that becomes more complicated in multi-writer applications. In this paper, we will present a developed system of Arabic online handwriting modeling based on graphemes segmentation and the extraction of its geometric features. The main contribution consists of adapting the Fourier descriptors to model the open trajectory of the segmented graphemes. To segment the trajectory of the handwriting, the system proceeds by first detecting its baseline by checking combined geometric and logic conditions. Then, the detected baseline is used as a topologic reference for the extraction of particular points that delimit the graphemes' trajectories. Each segmented grapheme is then represented by a set of relevant geometric features that include the vector of the Fourier descriptors for trajectory shape modeling, normalized metric parameters that model the grapheme dimensions, its position in respect to the baseline, and codes for the description of its associated diacritics.

This paper presents a novel convolutional neural network based multi-feature fusion learning method for non-rigid 3D model retrieval, which can investigate the useful discriminative information of the heat kernel signature (HKS) descriptor and the wave kernel signature (WKS) descriptor. At first, we compute the 2D shape distributions of the two kinds of descriptors to represent the 3D model and use them as the input to the networks. Then we construct two convolutional neural networks for the HKS distribution and the WKS distribution separately, and use the multi-feature fusion layer to connect them. The fusion layer not only can exploit more discriminative characteristics of the two descriptors, but also can complement the correlated information between the two kinds of descriptors. Furthermore, to further improve the performance of the description ability, the cross-connected layer is built to combine the low-level features with high-level features. Extensive experiments have validated the effectiveness of the designed multi-feature fusion learning method.

This paper presents a new descriptor, named Histograms of Prominent Edge Directions (HPED), for the recognition of facial expressions in a person-independent environment. In this paper, we raise the issue of sampling error in generating the code-histogram from spatial regions of the face image, as observed in the existing descriptors. HPED describes facial appearance changes based on the statistical distribution of the top two prominent edge directions (i.e., primary and secondary direction) captured over small spatial regions of the face. Compared to existing descriptors, HPED uses a smaller number of code-bins to describe the spatial regions, which helps avoid sampling error despite having fewer samples while preserving the valuable spatial information. In contrast to the existing Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) that uses the histogram of the primary edge direction (i.e., gradient orientation) only, we additionally consider the histogram of the secondary edge direction, which provides more meaningful shape information related to the local texture. Experiments on popular facial expression datasets demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed HPED against existing descriptors in a person-independent environment.

패턴 인식 연구 분야에서 많은 특징점 추출 알고리즘들이 개발되었지만, 태블릿 PC나 LCD 태블릿과 같은 펜-입력 디스플레이를 위한 인터액티브 애플리케이션들은 기존과는 다른 요구사항을 가진다. 사용자 마다 다른 다양한 스케치 스타일의 대해서 세그멘테이션 및 특징점 추출을 그림을 그리는 동안 실시간에 안정적으로 수행하여야 한다. 본 논문은 사용자로부터 자유로이 입력된 펜 입력을 분할(segmentation)하기 위해 필수적인 곡률(curvature) 측정 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 국소적인 모양 정보(shape descriptors)만을 사용하므로 펜 입력동안 곧바로(on-the-fly) 곡률을 측정할 수 있다. 본 알고리즘은 3차원 스케치 기반 모델링 애플리케이션에서 펜 마킹 인식을 위해서 사용되었다.

Fractal dimension is the method to measure the roughness and the irregularity of something that cannot be defined obviously by Euclidean dimension. And the analysis method of this dimension don't need perfect, accurate boundary and color like analysis lot diameter, perimeter, aspect or reflectivity of wear particles or surface. If we arranged the morphological characteristic of various wear particle by using the characteristic of fractal dimension, it might be very efficient to the diagnosis of driving condition. In order to describe morphology of various wear particle, the wear test was carried out under friction experimental conditions. And fractal descriptors was applied to boundary and surface of wear particle with image processing system. These descriptors to analyze shape and surface wear particle are boundary fractal dimension and surface fractal dimension.

Shape description is an important and fundamental issue in content-based image retrieval (CBIR), and a number of shape description methods have been reported in the literature. For shape description, both global information and local contour variations play important roles. In this paper a new included-angular ternary pattern (IATP) based shape descriptor is proposed for shape image retrieval. For each point on the shape contour, IATP is derived from its neighbor points, and IATP has good properties for shape description. IATP is intrinsically invariant to rotation, translation and scaling. To enhance the description capability, multiscale IATP histogram is presented to describe both local and global information of shape. Then multiscale IATP histogram is combined with included-angular histogram for efficient shape retrieval. In the matching stage, cosine distance is used to measure shape features' similarity. Image retrieval experiments are conducted on the standard MPEG-7 shape database and Swedish leaf database. And the shape image retrieval performance of the proposed method is compared with other shape descriptors using the standard evaluation method. The experimental results of shape retrieval indicate that the proposed method reaches higher precision at the same recall value compared with other description method.
