This paper presents a super-resolution reconstruction method based on sparse representation for two-dimensional bar code images. Considering the features of two-dimensional bar code images, Kirsch and LBP (local binary pattern) operators are used to extract the edge gradient and texture features. Feature extraction is constituted based on these two features and additional two second-order derivatives. By joint dictionary learning of the low-resolution and high-resolution image patch pairs, the sparse representation of corresponding patches is the same. In addition, the global constraint is exerted on the initial estimation of high-resolution image which makes the reconstructed result closer to the real one. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for two-dimensional bar code images by comparing with other reconstruction algorithms.

Logistic regression (LR) has been widely used for predicting the relationships among variables in various fields. We propose a new logistic regression model with a fine-grained weighting method, called value weighted logistic regression, by assigning different weights to each feature value. A gradient approach is utilized to obtain the optimal weights of feature values. We conduct experiments on several data sets and the experimental results show that the proposed method shows meaningful improvement in prediction accuracy.

Smoke and fire have different shapes and colours. This article suggests a fully connected system which is used two features using Adaboost algorithm for constructing a strong classifier as linear combination. We calculate the local histogram feature by gradient and bin, local binary pattern value, and projection vectors for each cell. According to the histogram magnitude, this paper applied adapted weighting value to improve the recognition rate. To preserve the local region and shape feature which has edge intensity, this paper processed the normalization sequence. For the extracted features, this paper Adaboost algorithm which makes strong classification to classify the objects. Our smoke detection system based on the proposed approach leads to higher detection accuracy than other system.

We propose a robust object cataloging method using multiple locally distinct heterogeneous features for aiding image retrieval. Due to challenges such as variations in object size, orientation, illumination etc. object recognition is extraordinarily challenging problem. In these circumstances, we adapt local interest point detection method which locates prototypical local components in object imageries. In each local component, we exploit heterogeneous features such as gradient-weighted orientation histogram, sum of wavelet responses, histograms using different color spaces etc. and combine these features together to describe each component divergently. A global signature is formed by adapting the concept of bag of feature model which counts frequencies of its local components with respect to words in a dictionary. The proposed method demonstrates its excellence in classifying objects in various complex backgrounds. Our proposed local feature shows classification accuracy of 98% while SURF,SIFT, BRISK and FREAK get 81%, 88%, 84% and 87% respectively.

Acyclic polyether dicarboxylic acid have been studied as metal cation carriers in a bulk liquid membrane system. The proton-ionizable ligands feature allows the coupling of a cation transport to reverse proton transport. This feature offers promise for the effective separation and concentration of metal cations with the metal cation transport being driven by a pH gradient. Metal cation transport increased regularly with increasing hydroxide($H^-$) concentration of source phase and with proton($H^+$) concentration of receiving phase. Competitive transport by the acyclic polyether dicarboxylic acids is selective for calcium ion over other alkaline-earth cations.

This paper presents a 3D feature extraction method using rough set theory. Using the stereo cameras, we obtain the raw images and then perform several processes including gradient computation and image matching process. Decision rule constructed via rough set theory determines whether a ceratin point in the image is 3D edge or not. We propose a method finding rules for 3D edge extraction using rough set.

본 논문은 인터넷의 대표적인 문제점중의 하나인 Adult Image 분류 연구에 대해 기술한다. 특히 우리는 이러한 Adult Image를 분류하기 위한 Data Set을 5가지 타입으로 구성한다. 이러한 각 Image에 대해 Color, Gradient, Edge Direction 특성의 Feature들을 추출하고 이를 Histogram으로 구성한다. 이렇게 구성된 Histogram을 Support Vector Machine에 적용하여 Adult Image를 분류한다. 그 결과, 우리는 8250개의 Test Set에 대하여 Recall(96.53%), Precision(97.33%), False Positive(2.96%), F-Measure(96.93%)의 성능 결과를 보여준다.

기존 홍채 인식 시스템의 접안식 영상 획득상 불편한 사항을 해결하고 인식의 정확도를 높이기 위해서는 원격으로 영상을 획득할 수 있어야 하며, 홍채의 경계선을 정확하게 검출할 수 있어야 한다. 또한 기존 홍채 영역 검출 방법의 문제점인 홍채를 원으로 가정하는 방식을 개선할 필요성이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 조명에 의한 glint 정보와 intensity gradient를 이용하여 홍채의 경계를 산출하였으며, 아울러 스테레오스코픽 카메라를 이용하여 홍채 경계의 3차원 좌표를 획득함으로써, 카메라를 기준으로 하는 홍채의 주시각을 찾아 홍채의 원형 변환에 활용하도록 하였다.

As remote sensing is weighty in GIS updating, it is indispensable to get spatial information quickly and exactly. In this study, we have designed and implemented the program by two algorithms of GDPA (Gradient Direction Profile Analysis) and Hough transformation to extract linear features automatically from high-resolution imagery. We applied the software to embody both algorithms to KOMPSAT-EOC, IKONOS, and Landsat-ETM and made a comparative study of results.

This paper presents a novel algorithm for nighttime detection of the lane markers painted on a road at night. First of all, the proposed algorithm uses neighborhood average filtering, 8-directional Sobel operator and thresholding segmentation based on OTSU's to handle raw lane images taken from a digital CCD camera. Secondly, combining intensity map and gradient map, we analyze the distribution features of pixels on boundaries of lanes in the nighttime and construct 4 feature sets for these points, which are helpful to supply with sufficient data related to lane boundaries to detect lane markers much more robustly. Then, the searching method in multiple directions- horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions, is conducted to eliminate the noise points on lane boundaries. Adapted Hough transformation is utilized to obtain the feature parameters related to the lane edge. The proposed algorithm can not only significantly improve detection performance for the lane marker, but it requires less computational power. Finally, the algorithm is proved to be reliable and robust in lane detection in a nighttime scenario.
