چکیده
Thresholding is an important topic for image processing, pattern recognition and computer vision. Selecting thresholds is a critical issue for many applications. The fuzzy set theory has been successfully applied to many areas, such as control, image processing, pattern recognition, computer vision, medicine, social science, etc. It is generally believed that image processing bears some fuzziness in nature. In this paper, we use the concept of fuzzy c-partition and the maximum fuzzy entropy principle to select threshold values for gray-level images. We have conducted experiments on many images. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can select the thresholds automatically and effectively, and the resulting images can preserve the main features of the components of the original images very well.

Robust telephone speech recognition based on channel compensation
Channel compensation technique has been proved to be an e!ective approach for robust speech recognition. In this paper, we compare the performance of our proposed method RMFCC with those of the former channel compensation methods: CMS, two-level CMS and RASTA for robust telephone speech recognition. For all experiments, a Korean isolated 84-word-database consisting of 80 speakers collected from...
متن کاملLAFTER: a real-time face and lips tracker with facial expression recognition
This paper describes an active-camera real-time system for tracking, shape description, and classi"cation of the human face and mouth expressions using only a PC or equivalent computer. The system is based on use of 2-D blob features, which are spatially compact clusters of pixels that are similar in terms of low-level image properties. Patterns of behavior (e.g., facial expressions and head mo...
متن کاملRelaxation labeling using augmented lagrange-hopfield method
A novel relaxation labeling (RL) method is presented based on Augmented Lagrangian multipliers and the graded Hoppeld neural network (ALH). In this method, an RL problem is converted into a constrained optimization problem and solved by using the augmented Lagrangian and Hoppeld techniques. The ALH method yields results comparable to the best of the existing RL algorithms in terms of the optimi...
متن کاملTabu search algorithm for codebook generation in vector quantization
A tabu search algorithm is proposed for the codebook generation in vector quantization. The key question is the definition of neighboring solution. Making random modifications to the current solution is not sufficient alone. The proposed algorithm first makes non-local changes to the codebook which is then fine-tuned by the generalized Lloyd algorithm (GLA). For a set of gray scale images, the ...
