Download or read book Advances in Pattern Recognition ICAPR 2001 written by Sameer Singh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-06-29 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper is organized as follows: In section 2, we describe the no- orientation-discontinuity interfering model based on a Gaussian stochastic model in analyzing the properties of the interfering strokes. In section 3, we describe the improved canny edge detector with an ed- orientation constraint to detect the edges and recover the weak ones of the foreground words and characters; In section 4, we illustrate, discuss and evaluate the experimental results of the proposed method, demonstrating that our algorithm significantly improves the segmentation quality; Section 5 concludes this paper. 2. The norm-orientation-discontinuity interfering stroke model Figure 2 shows three typical samples of original image segments from the original documents and their magnitude of the detected edges respectively. The magnitude of the gradient is converted into the gray level value. The darker the edge is, the larger is the gradient magnitude. It is obvious that the topmost strong edges correspond to foreground edges. It should be noted that, while usually, the foreground writing appears darker than the background image, as shown in sample image Figure 2(a), there are cases where the foreground and background have similar intensities as shown in Figure 2(b), or worst still, the background is more prominent than the foreground as in Figure 2(c). So using only the intensity value is not enough to differentiate the foreground from the background. (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f)

Download or read book Research Anthology on Advancements in Quantum Technology written by Management Association, Information Resources and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-03-19 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum technology has arrived as one of the most important new topics of research, as it is the newest way to create computing power, harness secure communications, and use sensitive measurement methods that surpass the capabilities of modern supercomputers. If successfully developed, quantum computers and technology will be able to perform algorithms at impressively quick rates and solve problems that were previously deemed impossible. This technology will disrupt what is already known about computing and will be able to reach new heights, speeds, and problem-solving capabilities not yet seen. Beyond its inherent benefits comes the fact that quantum technology will create improvements in many everyday gadgets as well, spanning many industries. The Research Anthology on Advancements in Quantum Technology presents the latest discoveries in quantum technology itself along with providing its essential uses, applications, and technologies that will impact computing in modern times and far into the future. Along with this overview comes a look at quantum technology in many different fields such as healthcare, communications, aviation, automotive, forecasting, and more. These industries will be looked at from the perspective of data analytics, pattern matching, cryptography, algorithms, and more. This book is essential for computer scientists, engineers, professionals, researchers, students, and practitioners interested in the latest information on quantum technology.

Download or read book Hybrid Methods in Pattern Recognition written by Horst Bunke and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of pattern recognition has seen enormous progress since its beginnings almost 50 years ago. A large number of different approaches have been proposed. Hybrid methods aim at combining the advantages of different paradigms within a single system. Hybrid Methods in Pattern Recognition is a collection of articles describing recent progress in this emerging field. It covers topics such as the combination of neural nets with fuzzy systems or hidden Markov models, neural networks for the processing of symbolic data structures, hybrid methods in data mining, the combination of symbolic and subsymbolic learning, and so on. Also included is recent work on multiple classifier systems. Furthermore, the book deals with applications in on-line and off-line handwriting recognition, remotely sensed image interpretation, fingerprint identification, and automatic text categorization.

This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes reviewed papers by international scholars from the 2020 International Conference on Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence (held online). The papers have been expanded to provide more details specifically for the book. It is geared to promote ongoing interest and understanding about pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. Like the previous book in the series, this book covers a range of topics and illustrates potential areas where pattern recognition and artificial intelligence can be applied. It highlights, for example, how pattern recognition and artificial intelligence can be used to classify, predict, detect and help promote further discoveries related to credit scores, criminal news, national elections, license plates, gender, personality characteristics, health, and more.Chapters include works centred on medical and financial applications as well as topics related to handwriting analysis and text processing, internet security, image analysis, database creation, neural networks and deep learning. While the book is geared to promote interest from the general public, it may also be of interest to graduate students and researchers in the field.

Download or read book New Approaches to Characterization and Recognition of Faces written by Peter Corcoran and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a baby, one of our earliest stimuli is that of human faces. We rapidly learn to identify, characterize and eventually distinguish those who are near and dear to us. We accept face recognition later as an everyday ability. We realize the complexity of the underlying problem only when we attempt to duplicate this skill in a computer vision system. This book is arranged around a number of clustered themes covering different aspects of face recognition. The first section presents an architecture for face recognition based on Hidden Markov Models; it is followed by an article on coding methods. The next section is devoted to 3D methods of face recognition and is followed by a section covering various aspects and techniques in video. Next short section is devoted to the characterization and detection of features in faces. Finally, you can find an article on the human perception of faces and how different neurological or psychological disorders can affect this.
Download or read book Groupware Design Implementation and Use written by Jörg M. Haake and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-08-14 with total page 1446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the 8th International Workshop on Groupware (CRIWG 2002)! The previous workshops took place in Lisbon, Portugal (1995), Puerto Varas, Chile (1996), El Escorial, Spain (1997), Búzios, Brazil (1998), Cancun, Mexico (1999), Madeira, Portugal (2000), and Darmstadt, Germany (2001). CRIWG workshops follow a simple recipe for success: good papers, a small number of participants, extensive time for lively and constructive discussions, and a high level of cooperation both within and between paper sessions. CRIWG 2002 continued this tradition. CRIWG 2002 attracted 36 submissions from 13 countries, nine of them outside Ibero-America. Each of the 36 articles submitted was reviewed by at least three members of an internationally renowned Program Committee. This year we used a double-blind reviewing process, i. e. , the reviewers did not know who the authors of the papers were. In addition, the reviewers were chosen based on their expertise and we also ensured that they came from countries and institutions not related to those of the paper’s authors. This reviewer assignment worked remarkably well, as indicated by the high average confidence value the reviewers gave their own reviews. This means that papers were usually reviewed by experts in the paper’s topic. As a consequence, reviews were usually quite extensive and contained many suggestions for - provements. I would like to thank all the members of the Program Committee for their hard work, which I am sure contributed to improving the quality of the final articles.
