Automatic road extraction from aerial images can be very helpful in traffic control and vehicle guidance systems. Most of the road detection approaches are based on image segmentation algorithms. Color-based segmentation is very sensitive to light changes and consequently the change of weather condition affects the recognition rate of road detection systems. In order to reduce the light change ...

in this paper, we propose an approach for automatic generation of novel intrusion signatures. this approach can be used in the signature-based network intrusion detection systems (nidss) and for the automation of the process of intrusion detection in these systems. in the proposed approach, first, by using several one-class classifiers, the profile of the normal network traffic is established. ...

in order to improve the performance of irrigation networks, provide higher flexibility levels and improve water delivery methods, application of automatic control systems is suggested. in the coarse of the present study, a mathematical model of automatic pivot weir as based on pid control logic in combination with icss hydrodynamic model is developed. the developed model was tested under high f...

automatic analysis of human facial expressions is one of the challenging problems in machine vision systems. it has many applications in human-computer interactions such as, social signal processing, social robots, deceit detection, interactive video and behavior monitoring. in this paper, we develop a new method for automatic facial expression recognition based on facial muscle anatomy and hum...

todays, productivity and efficiency of irrigation have been in the center of the many water-related issues. by using sprinkler irrigation systems in addition to watering easier and automatic, that is a device for raising water application uniformity and efficiency which ultimately will save water consumption and production increase. in this study, four fixed irrigation systems of khorramabad ci...

Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics (MTEMs) are the central core of Machine Translation (MT) engines as they are developed based on frequent evaluation. Although MTEMs are widespread today, their validity and quality for many languages is still under question. The aim of this research study was to examine the validity and assess the quality of MTEMs from Lexical Similarity set on machine tra...

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sensitometric characteristics of Ultraspeed, Ektaspeed Plus and Insight dental radiographic films using manual and automatic processing systems. METHODS: In this experimental invitro study, an aluminum step-wedge was used to construct characteristic curves for D-, E- and F-speed radiographic films (Kodak Eastman, Rochester, USA). All fil...

this paper considers the automatic design of fuzzy rule-basedclassification systems based on labeled data. the classification performance andinterpretability are of major importance in these systems. in this paper, weutilize the distribution of training patterns in decision subspace of each fuzzyrule to improve its initially assigned certainty grade (i.e. rule weight). ourapproach uses a punish...
