image classification is an issue which utilizes image processing, pattern recognition and classification methods. automatic medical image classification is a progressive area in image classification and it expected to be more developed in the future. due to this fact that automatic diagnosis which use intelligent methods such as medical image classification can assist pathologists by providing ...

Abstract—Music has always been an integral part of human’s daily lives. But, for the most people, reading musical score and turning it into melody is not easy. This study aims to develop an Automatic music score recognition system using digital image processing, which can be used to read and analyze musical score images automatically. The technical approaches included: (1) staff region segmenta...

The image processing based human recognition is yet a challenging task because of series of complications such as variations in pose, lighting conditions and complexity of background in the tracking environment. This study introduces a novel methodology to track construction workers using image processing techniques and depth information generated from the Microsoft Kinect sensor. Kinect is a n...

fuzzy segmentation is an effective way of segmenting out objects in images containing both random noise and varying illumination. in this paper, a modified method based on the comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization (clpso) is proposed for pixel classification in hsi color space by selecting a fuzzy classification system with minimum number of fuzzy rules and minimum number of incorr...

gesture and motion recognition are needed for a variety of applications. the use of human hand motions as a natural interface tool has motivated researchers to conduct research in the modeling, analysis and recognition of various hand movements. in particular, human-computer intelligent interaction has been a focus of research in vision-based gesture recognition. in this work, we introduce a 3-...

facial expressions are the most powerful and direct means of presenting human emotions and feelings and offer a window into a persons’ state of mind. in recent years, the study of facial expression and recognition has gained prominence; as industry and services are keen on expanding on the potential advantages of facial recognition technology. as machine vision and artificial intelligence advan...

The tremendous growth in digital imagery has introduced the need for accurate image analysis and classification. The applications include content based image retrieval in the World Wide Web and digital libraries (Dong & Yang, 2002; Heidmann, 2005; Smeulders et al., 2000; Veltkamp et al., 2001) scene classification (Huang et al., 2005; Jiebo et al., 2005), face recognition (Jing & Zhang, 2006; P...
