Recently, several nonlinear shape normalization methods have been proposed in order to compensate for the shape distortions in handwritten characters. In this paper, we review these nonlinear shape normalization methods from the two points of view : feature projection and feature density equalization. The former makes feature projection histogram by projecting a certain feature at each point of input image into horizontal-or vertical-axis and the latter equalizes the feature densities of input image by re-sampling the feature projection histogram. A systematic comparison of these methods has been made based on the following criteria: recognition rate, processing speed, computational complexity and measure of variation. Then, we present the result of quantitative evaluation of each method based on these criteria for a large variety of handwritten Hangul syllables.

This article describes 3 dimensional (3D) face recognition system using histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) based on face curvature. The surface curvatures in the face contain the most important personal feature information. In this paper, 3D face images are recognized by the face components: cheek, eyes, mouth, and nose. For the proposed approach, the first step uses the face curvatures which present the facial features for 3D face images, after normalization using the singular value decomposition (SVD). Fisherface method is then applied to each component curvature face. The reason for adapting the Fisherface method maintains the surface attribute for the face curvature, even though it can generate reduced image dimension. And histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) descriptor is one of the state-of-art methods which have been shown to significantly outperform the existing feature set for several objects detection and recognition. In the last step, the linear discriminant analysis is explained for each component. The experimental results showed that the proposed approach leads to higher detection accuracy rate than other methods.

The object recognition is one of the major computer vision fields. The object recognition using features(SIFT) is finding common features in input images and query images. But the object recognition using feature methods has suffered of difficulties due to heavy calculations when resizing input images and query images. In this paper, we focused on speed up finding features in the images. we proposed method using block segmentation and histogram. Block segmentation used diving input image and than histogram decided correlation between each 1]lock and query image. This paper has confirmed that tile matching time reduced for object recognition since reducing block.

본 논문은 기존의 컬러 히스토그램 방법들의 단점을 극복하고자 영역 특징백터를 이용한 영상 검색 방법을 제안한다. 컬러 히스토그램 검색방법들은 양자화 오류 등의 이유로 정확성이 떨어지는 단점이 있다 이를 해결하기 위해 제안 방법은 색상 정보를 HSY 공간으로 변환하여 순수 색상 정보인 hue 성분만을 양자화하여 히스토그램을 구하고, 이를 명암, 이동, 회전등에 강인한 검색 특징으로 사용한다. 또한 컬러 히스토그램 방법들의 가장 큰 문제점인 공간 정보가 부족한 것은 영상을 16개 영역으로 나눠서 각 영역간의 비교를 통해 해결한다. 그리고 색상 검색에 추가적으로 모양 특징인 에지와 질감 특징인 DCT 변환의 DC를 이용하여 검색의 정확도를 높인다 1,000개의 컬러 영상을 사용해 실험한 결과 기존의 방법들 보다 좋은 정확성을 보인다.

현대의 대량화된 영상 관리 시스템은 영상의 특징을 표현하는 영상식별자에 대해 왜곡에 강인하며 빠른 검색 속도, 정확성 및 효율적인 저장 등의 기본 성능을 요구한다. 영상식별자 설계 방법은 기하학적 왜곡에 강인한 지역 방식과 빠른 검색 및 적은 저장 용량의 속성을 지닌 전역방식으로 구분 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 왜곡에 강하고 지역적 공간적 제약으로 인한 서로간의 차별성이 강화된 지역 기술자들로부터 각각 개개 차원의 특징 분포도를 분석하여, 두 영상간의 유사도를 빠르고 정확하게 측정할 수 있는 지역 기술자 및 전역 기술자의 속성을 가지고 있는 LFH(Local Feature's Histogram)기반 영상식별자를 제안한다. 또한 GPU를 사용하여 LFH를 구현하는 방법을 제시하며, 제안한 LFH와 대표적인 지역, 전역 방식인 SIFT 및 EHD 방식과 저장용량, 추출 시간, 검색 속도 및 정확률에 대한 성능을 비교하였다.

From the 90's, the image information retrieval methods have been on progress. As good examples of the methods, Conventional histogram method and merged-color histogram method were introduced. They could get good result in image retrieval. However, Conventional histogram method has disadvantages if the histogram is shifted as a result of intensity change. Merged-color histogram, also, causes more process so, it needs more time to retrieve images. In this paper, we propose an improved new method using Adaptive Color Histogram Bin Matching(AHB) in image retrieval. The proposed method has been tested and verified through a number of simulations using hundreds of images in a database. The simulation results have Quickly yielded the highly accurate candidate images in comparison to other retrieval methods. We show that AHB's can give superior results to color histograms for image retrieval.

Usually, spatial information can be incorporated into histograms by taking histograms of a multiresolution image. For these reasons, many researchers are interested in multiresolution histogram processing. If the relation and sensitivity of the multiresolution images are well combined without loss of information, we can obtain satisfactory results in several fields of image processing including histogram equalization, specification and pattern matching. In this paper, we propose a multiresolution histogram specification method that improves the accuracy of histogram specification. The multiresolution decomposition technique is used in order to overcome the unique feature of a histogram specification affected by a quantization error of a digitalized image. The histogram specification is processed after the reduction of image resolution in order to enhance the accuracy of the results by histogram specification methods. The experimental results show that the proposed method enhances the accuracy of specification compared to conventional methods.

There are numerous emotions in the human world. Human expresses and recognizes their emotion using various channels. The example is an eye, nose and mouse. Particularly, in the emotion recognition from facial expression they can perform the very flexible and robust emotion recognition because of utilization of various channels. Hybrid-feature extraction algorithm is based on this human process. It uses the geometrical feature extraction and the color distributed histogram. And then, through the independently parallel learning of the neural-network, input emotion is classified. Also, for the natural classification of the emotion, advancing two-dimensional emotion space is introduced and used in this paper. Advancing twodimensional emotion space performs a flexible and smooth classification of emotion.

Iris recognition is a biometric technology which can identify a person using the iris pattern. It is important for the iris recognition system to extract the feature which is invariant to changes in iris patterns. Those changes can be occurred by the influence of lights, changes in the size of the pupil, and head tilting. This paper is appropriate for the embedded environment using local gradient histogram embedded system using iris feature extraction methods have implement. The proposed method enables high-speed feature extraction and feature comparison because it requires no additional processing to obtain the rotation invariance, and shows comparable performance to the well-known previous methods.

Methods of Object recognition from camera image are to compare features of color. edge or pattern with model in a general way. SIFT(scale-invariant feature transform) has good performance but that has high complexity of computation. Using simple color histogram has low complexity. but low performance. In this paper we represent a model as a color cooccurrence histogram. and we improve performance using pyramid matching. The color cooccurrence histogram keeps track of the number of pairs of certain colored pixels that occur at certain separation distances in image space. The color cooccurrence histogram adds geometric information to the normal color histogram. We suggest object recognition by pyramid matching of color cooccurrence histogram.
