    A Novel Semi-Supervised Multi-View Picture Fuzzy Clustering Approach for Enhanced Satellite Image Segmentation

    Pham Huy Thong, Hoang Thi Canh, Nguyen Tuan Huy, Nguyen Long Giang, Luong Thi Hong Lan
    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.071776
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Advances in Image Recognition: Innovations, Applications, and Future Directions)
    Abstract Satellite image segmentation plays a crucial role in remote sensing, supporting applications such as environmental monitoring, land use analysis, and disaster management. However, traditional segmentation methods often rely on large amounts of labeled data, which are costly and time-consuming to obtain, especially in large-scale or dynamic environments. To address this challenge, we propose the Semi-Supervised Multi-View Picture Fuzzy Clustering (SS-MPFC) algorithm, which improves segmentation accuracy and robustness, particularly in complex and uncertain remote sensing scenarios. SS-MPFC unifies three paradigms: semi-supervised learning, multi-view clustering, and picture fuzzy set theory. This integration allows the model to effectively… More >

    Improving Real-Time Animal Detection Using Group Sparsity in YOLOv8: A Solution for Animal-Toy Differentiation

    Zia Ur Rehman, Ahmad Syed, Abu Tayab, Ghanshyam G. Tejani, Doaa Sami Khafaga, El-Sayed M. El-kenawy
    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.070310

    Abstract Object detection, a major challenge in computer vision and pattern recognition, plays a significant part in many applications, crossing artificial intelligence, face recognition, and autonomous driving. It involves focusing on identifying the detection, localization, and categorization of targets in images. A particularly important emerging task is distinguishing real animals from toy replicas in real-time, mostly for smart camera systems in both urban and natural environments. However, that difficult task is affected by factors such as showing angle, occlusion, light intensity, variations, and texture differences. To tackle these challenges, this paper recommends Group Sparse YOLOv8 (You… More >
