Abstract In recent years, deep neural networks have become a fascinating and influential research subject, and they play a critical role in video processing and analytics. Since, video analytics are predominantly hardware centric, exploration of implementing the deep neural networks in the hardware needs its brighter light of research. However, the computational complexity and resource constraints of deep neural networks are increasing exponentially by time. Convolutional neural networks are one of the most popular deep learning architecture especially for image classification and video analytics. But these algorithms need an efficient implement strategy for incorporating more real… More >

Abstract Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) systems are important in Intelligent Transportation Services (ITS) as they help ensure effective law enforcement and security. These systems play a significant role in border surveillance, ensuring safeguards, and handling vehicle-related crime. The most effective approach for implementing ALPR systems utilizes deep learning via a convolutional neural network (CNN). A CNN works on an input image by assigning significance to various features of the image and differentiating them from each other. CNNs are popular for license plate character recognition. However, little has been reported on the results of these systems with More >

Abstract The high prevalence of urban flooding in the world is increasing rapidly with the rise in extreme weather events. Consequently, this research uses an Automatic Flood Monitoring System (ARMS) through a video surveillance camera. Initially, videos are collected from a surveillance camera and converted into video frames. After converting the video frames, the water level can be identified by using a Histogram of oriented Gradient (HoG), which is used to remove the functionality. Completing the extracted features, the frames are enhanced by using a median filter to remove the unwanted noise from the image. The More >

Abstract The current development of artificial intelligence is largely based on deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Especially in the computer vision field, DNNs now occur in everything from autonomous vehicles to safety control systems. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is based on DNNs mostly used in different computer vision applications, especially for image classification and object detection. The CNN model takes the photos as input and, after training, assigns it a suitable class after setting traceable parameters like weights and biases. CNN is derived from Human Brain's Part Visual Cortex and sometimes performs even better than Haman visual… More >

Abstract Brain medical image classification is an essential procedure in Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems. Conventional methods depend specifically on the local or global features. Several fusion methods have also been developed, most of which are problem-distinct and have shown to be highly favorable in medical images. However, intensity-specific images are not extracted. The recent deep learning methods ensure an efficient means to design an end-to-end model that produces final classification accuracy with brain medical images, compromising normalization. To solve these classification problems, in this paper, Histogram and Time-frequency Differential Deep (HTF-DD) method for medical image classification… More >

Abstract A proper detection and classification of defects in steel sheets in real time have become a requirement for manufacturing these products, largely used in many industrial sectors. However, computers used in the production line of small to medium size companies, in general, lack performance to attend real-time inspection with high processing demands. In this paper, a smart deep convolutional neural network for using in real-time surface inspection of steel rolling sheets is proposed. The architecture is based on the state-of-the-art SqueezeNet approach, which was originally developed for usage with autonomous vehicles. The main features of More >

Abstract Traditional techniques based on image fusion are arduous in integrating complementary or heterogeneous infrared (IR)/visible (VS) images. Dissimilarities in various kind of features in these images are vital to preserve in the single fused image. Hence, simultaneous preservation of both the aspects at the same time is a challenging task. However, most of the existing methods utilize the manual extraction of features; and manual complicated designing of fusion rules resulted in a blurry artifact in the fused image. Therefore, this study has proposed a hybrid algorithm for the integration of multi-features among two heterogeneous images.… More >

Abstract Alzheimer's disease is a severe neuron disease that damages brain cells which leads to permanent loss of memory also called dementia. Many people die due to this disease every year because this is not curable but early detection of this disease can help restrain the spread. Alzheimer's is most common in elderly people in the age bracket of 65 and above. An automated system is required for early detection of disease that can detect and classify the disease into multiple Alzheimer classes. Deep learning and machine learning techniques are used to solve many medical problems More >
