Abstract Background and Aims: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is very common in the population. Virus belongs to the family Herpesviridae, whose representatives are characterized by the ability to cause the human body's latent persistent infections. The goal of the study is to assess the CMVV infection frequency and PCR method in the choice of CMV in inflammatory eye disease, Comparing wit...

Precise eye status detection and localization is a fundamental step for driver distraction detection. The efficiency of any learning-based object detection method highly depends on the training dataset as well as learning parameters. The reported research develops optimum values of Haar-training parameters to create a nested cascade of classifiers for real-time eye status detection. The detecto...

Human eye closeness detection has gained wide applications in human computer interface designation, facial expression recognition, driver fatigue detection, and so on. In this work, we present an extensive comparison on several state of art appearance-based eye closeness detection methods, with emphasize on the role played by each crucial component, including geometric normalization, feature ex...

Animal species detection is one of the crucial steps for consumer’s food analysis. In the present study we developed an in-house built loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid detection of adulterated cow DNA in goat milk/meat samples. The cow milk/tissue DNA in goat milk/meat samples were identified in the developed LAMP assay by either naked eye visualizing with SYBR Gree...

The eyes are important facial landmarks, both for image normalization due to their relatively constant interocular distance, and for post processing due to them anchoring model-based schemes. This paper introduces a novel approach for the eye detection task using optimal wavelet packets for eye representation and Radial Basis Functions (RBFs) for subsequent classification (’labeling’) of facial...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the ability of the fellow eye to detect stimuli in the area corresponding to the ring scotoma (blind area) of a monocular bioptic telescope in simple conditions (conventional perimetry) and in more visually demanding conditions. METHODS A computerized dichoptic perimeter enabled separate stimuli to be presented to each eye of 7 bioptic users and 7 nonusers. The bioptic r...

The health of the ocular surface requires blinks of the eye to be frequent in order to provide moisture and to renew the tear film. However, blinking frequency has been shown to decrease in certain conditions such as when subjects are conducting tasks with high cognitive and visual demands. These conditions are becoming more common as people work or spend their leisure time in front of video di...

A novel method for human eye location is proposed in this paper, which is designed based on an improved algorithm called ratio local binary pattern (RLBP). These patterns provide a simple but powerful spatial description of eye texture and have low cost of calculation. The working principle of RLBP is described in detail, and based on it a system is developed. The eye location system is compose...
