Abstract Object recognition and tracking are two of the most dynamic research sub-areas that belong to the field of Computer Vision. Computer vision is one of the most active research fields that lies at the intersection of deep learning and machine vision. This paper presents an efficient ensemble algorithm for the recognition and tracking of fixed shape moving objects while accommodating the shift and scale invariances that the object may encounter. The first part uses the Maximum Average Correlation Height (MACH) filter for object recognition and determines the bounding box coordinates. In case the correlation based MACH filter fails, the algorithms… More >

Abstract In order to solve the cutting tools classification problem, a crime tool identification algorithm based on GVF-Harris-SIFT and KNN is put forward. The proposed algorithm uses a gradient vector to smooth the gradient field of the image, and then uses the Harris angle detection algorithm to detect the tool angle. After that, the descriptors of the eigenvectors in corresponding feature points were using SIFT to obtained. Finally, the KNN machine learning algorithms is employed to for classification and recognition. The experimental results of the comparison of the cutting tools show the accuracy and reliability of the algorithm. More >

Abstract Clouds play an important role in modulating radiation processes and climate changes in the Earth's atmosphere. Currently, measurement of meteorological elements such as temperature, air pressure, humidity, and wind has been automated. However, the cloud's automatic identification technology is still not perfect. Thus, this paper presents an approach that extracts dense scale-invariant feature transform (Dense_SIFT) as the local features of four typical cloud images. The extracted cloud features are then clustered by K-means algorithm, and the bag-of-words (BoW) model is used to describe each ground-based cloud image. Finally, support vector machine (SVM) is used for classification and recognition. Based on… More >

Abstract Remote medical diagnosis can be realized by using the Internet, but when transmitting medical images of patients through the Internet, personal information of patients may be leaked. Aim at the security of medical information system and the protection of medical images, a novel robust zero-watermarking based on SIFT-DCT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform-Discrete Cosine Transform) for medical images in the encrypted domain is proposed. Firstly, the original medical image is encrypted in transform domain based on Logistic chaotic sequence to enhance the concealment of original medical images. Then, the SIFT-DCT is used to extract the feature sequences of encrypted medical images.… More >
