내용기반 영상검색 분야에서 색, 질감, 모양 등과 같은 영상의 시각적인 내용을 표현하기 위하여 수치화한 특징들이 많이 제안되었다. 이런 특징들은 모두 독립적이라고 가정하기 때문에 한 특징 벡터를 추출할 때는 다른 특징들과의 상관성을 전혀 고려하지 않는다. 이 논문에서는 색과 질감 사이의 관계를 고려하여 새로운 CCE(channel color energy) 특징을 제안한다. 자연 영상을 대상으로 한 실험결과를 분석한 결과 제안하는 방법이 정규 가중거리 비교 방법과 SCFT(sequential chromatic Fourier transform) 기반 색 질감 방법에 비해 우수한 성능을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In Facial Expression Recognition Systems (FERS), only particular regions of the face are utilized for discrimination. The areas of the eyes, eyebrows, nose, and mouth are the most important features in any FERS. Applying facial features descriptors such as the local binary pattern (LBP) on such areas results in an effective and efficient FERS. In this paper, we propose an automatic facial expression recognition system. Unlike other systems, it detects and extracts the informative and discriminant regions of the face (i.e., eyes, nose, and mouth areas) using Haar-feature based cascade classifiers and these region-based features are stored into separate image files as a preprocessing step. Then, LBP is applied to these image files for facial texture representation and a feature-vector per subject is obtained by concatenating the resulting LBP histograms of the decomposed region-based features. The one-vs.-rest SVM, which is a popular multi-classification method, is employed with the Radial Basis Function (RBF) for facial expression classification. Experimental results show that this approach yields good performance for both frontal and near-frontal facial images in terms of accuracy and time complexity. Cohn-Kanade and JAFFE, which are benchmark facial expression datasets, are used to evaluate this approach.

A malicious Uniform Resource Locator (URL) recognition and detection method based on the combination of Attention mechanism with Convolutional Neural Network and Long Short-Term Memory Network (Attention-Based CNN-LSTM), is proposed. Firstly, the WHOIS check method is used to extract and filter features, including the URL texture information, the URL string statistical information of attributes and the WHOIS information, and the features are subsequently encoded and pre-processed followed by inputting them to the constructed Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) convolution layer to extract local features. Secondly, in accordance with the weights from the Attention mechanism, the generated local features are input into the Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) model, and subsequently pooled to calculate the global features of the URLs. Finally, the URLs are detected and classified by the SoftMax function using global features. The results demonstrate that compared with the existing methods, the Attention-based CNN-LSTM mechanism has higher accuracy for malicious URL detection.

The latest global COVID-19 pandemic has made the use of facial masks an important aspect of our lives. People are advised to cover their faces in public spaces to discourage illness from spreading. Using these face masks posed a significant concern about the exactness of the face identification method used to search and unlock telephones at the school/office. Many companies have already built the requisite data in-house to incorporate such a scheme, using face recognition as an authentication. Unfortunately, veiled faces hinder the detection and acknowledgment of these facial identity schemes and seek to invalidate the internal data collection. Biometric systems that use the face as authentication cause problems with detection or recognition (face or persons). In this research, a novel model has been developed to detect and recognize faces and persons for authentication using scale invariant features (SIFT) for the whole segmented face with an efficient local binary texture features (DLBP) in region of eyes in the masked face. The Fuzzy C means is utilized to segment the image. These mixed features are trained significantly in a convolution neural network (CNN) model. The main advantage of this model is that can detect and recognizing faces by assigning weights to the selected features aimed to grant or provoke permissions with high accuracy.

본 논문에서는 Gabor 특징과 웨이브렛 영역의 BDIP와 BVLC 특징을 이용한 질감 특징 기반 언어 인식 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법에서는 먼저 시험 영상에 Gabor 변환과 웨이브렛 변환을 적용한다. 웨이브렛 영역의 상세 대역에는 Donoho의 연역치화를 적용하여 잡음을 제거한다. 이어서 Gabor 영상에는 크기 연산자를 적용하고 웨이브렛 부대역에는 BDIP와 BVLC 연산자를 적용한다. 그런 다음 Gabor 크기 영상과 BDIP, BVLC 부대역에 대하여 통계치를 계산하여 그 결과들을 벡터화하고 융합하여 특징 벡터로 사용한다. 분류 단계에서는 얼굴 인식에 주로 사용되는 WPCA를 분류기로 하여 시험 특징 벡터와 가장 유사한 학습 특징 벡터를 찾는다. 실험 결과 제안된 방법은 실험 문서 영상 DB에 대하여 비교적 낮은 특징 벡터 차원으로 매우 우수한 언어 인식 성능을 보여준다.

본 연구에서는 움직이는 CCD 카메라로부터 입력된 영상에서 색상 및 질감 성분을 기반으로 하는 파티클 필터를 이용하여 실시간으로 객체를 추적할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 초기 영상에서 추적하고자 하는 객체를 선택하면 이를 타깃 파티클로 결정하고, 타깃 파티클로 부터 추적을 위한 초기 상태가 모델링 된다. 이후 프레임부터 N개의 파티클들이 랜덤 분포로 생성되고 각 파티클로 부터 질감 정보인 로컬 CS-LBP (Centre Symmetric Local Binary Patterns)모델과 색상 분포 모델이 특징 모델로 사용된다. 각 특징 모델에 대해 바타차리야 (Bhattacharyya) 거리를 사용하여 각 파티클과 타깃 파티클 간의 특징 관측 우도(likelihood)를 구하고 이를 각 파티클의 가중치로 설정 한다. 각 파티클의 가중치를 기반으로 가중치가 가장 높은 파티클을 새로운 타깃으로 설정하고, 각 파티클들을 재 샘플링 한다. 본 실험결과에서는 여러 가지 특징을 조합하여 실험을 하였고, 그 결과 색상 분포 모델과 로컬 CS-LBP를 조합했을 때 추적 성능이 가장 우수한 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a texture feature extraction method using local energy and local correlation of Gabor transformed images is proposed and applied to an image retrieval system. The Gabor wavelet is known to be similar to the response of the human visual system. The outputs of the Gabor transformation are robust to variants of object size and illumination. Due to such advantages, it has been actively studied in various fields such as image retrieval, classification, analysis, etc. In this paper, in order to fully exploit the superior aspects of Gabor wavelet, local energy and local correlation features are extracted from Gabor transformed images and then applied to an image retrieval system. Some experiments are conducted to compare the performance of the proposed method with those of the conventional Gabor method and the popular rotation-invariant uniform local binary pattern (RULBP) method in terms of precision vs recall. The Mahalanobis distance is used to measure the similarity between a query image and a database (DB) image. Experimental results for Corel DB and VisTex DB show that the proposed method is superior to the conventional Gabor method. The proposed method also yields precision and recall 6.58% and 3.66% higher on average in Corel DB, respectively, and 4.87% and 3.37% higher on average in VisTex DB, respectively, than the popular RULBP method.

Methods of detecting, describing, matching image features, like corners and blobs, have been actively studied as a fundamental step for image processing and computer vision applications. As one of feature description/matching methods, LLAH(Locally Likely Arrangement Hashing) describes image features based on the geometric relationship between their neighbors, and thus is suitable for scenes with poor texture. This paper presents a modified LLAH algorithm, which includes the image features themselves for robustly describing the geometric relationship unlike the original LLAH, and employes a voting-based feature matching scheme that makes feature description much simpler. Then, this paper quantitatively analyzes its performance with synthetic images in the presence of Gaussian noise.

We propose a bicycle detection system riding on people based on modified projected local binary pattern(PLBP) for vision based intelligent vehicles. Projection method has robustness for rotation invariant and reducing dimensionality for original image. The features of Local binary pattern(LBP) are fast to compute and simple to implement for object recognition and texture classification area. Moreover, We use uniform pattern to remove the noise. This paper suggests that modified LBP method and projection vector having different weighting values according to the local shape and area in the image. Also our system maintains the simplicity of evaluation of traditional formulation while being more discriminative. Our experimental results show that a bicycle and motorcycle riding on people detection system based on proposed PLBP features achieve higher detection accuracy rate than traditional features.
