چکیده

This paper presents a method for Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery in Image Data. This method is based on the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) which is an unsupervised artificial neural network algorithm. The SOM possesses unique properties of clustering, classification, modelling and visualization and is used here as a Data Mining tool. This enables us to get informative yet simpler pictures of the image data space whose dimension, complexity and amount are large for human observation alone. For this purpose, a Landsat-5 TM satellite Remotely Sensed Image of the Lower Thames Valley area in the vicinity of Heathrow Airport (London, UK) was used in this study for evaluating the proposed SOM Neural network and comparing its results with conventional classification algorithms which are used in the Remote Sensing field.

Multi-View Face Detection in Open Environments using Gabor Features and Neural Networks

Multi-view face detection in open environments is a challenging task, due to the wide variations in illumination, face appearances and occlusion. In this paper, a robust method for multi-view face detection in open environments, using a combination of Gabor features and neural networks, is presented. Firstly, the effect of changing the Gabor filter parameters (orientation, frequency, standard d...
