Research in automatic facial expression recognition has permitted the development of systems discriminating between the six prototypical expressions, i.e. anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise, in frontal video sequences. Achieving high recognition rate often implies high computational costs that are not compatible with real time applications on limited-resource platforms. In or...

Quality assessment in carpet manufacturing is performed by humans who evaluate the appearance retention (AR) grade on carpet samples. To quantify the AR grades objectively, different research based on computer vision have been developed. Among them Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and its variations has shown promising results. Nevertheless, the requirements of quality assessment on a wide range of c...

We present a description of our approach for the “Bird task Identification LifeCLEF 2014”. Our approach consists of four stages: (1) a filtering stage for the filtering of audio bird recordings; (2) segmentation stage for the extraction of syllables; (3) a candidate generation based on HOG features from the syllables using SVM; and (4) a species identification using a Sparse Representation-base...

many researchers adopt local binary pattern for pattern analysis. however, the long histogram created by local binary pattern is not suitable for large-scale facial database. this paper presents a simple facial pattern descriptor for facial expression recognition. local pattern is computed based on local gradient flow from one side to another side through the center pixel in a 3x3 pixels region...

Classical LBP such as complexity and high dimensions of feature vectors that make it necessary to apply dimension reduction processes. In this paper, we introduce an improved LBP algorithm to solve these problems that utilizes Fast PCA algorithm for reduction of vector dimensions of extracted features. In other words, proffer method (Fast PCA+LBP) is an improved LBP algorithm that is extracted ...

feature extraction is a main step in all perceptual image hashing schemes in which robust features will led to better results in perceptual robustness. simplicity, discriminative power, computational efficiency and robustness to illumination changes are counted as distinguished properties of local binary pattern features. in this paper, we investigate the use of local binary patterns for percep...

Background: Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) might be manifested as structural changes in bone through modification, adaptation or direct destruction. We propose to use Local Binary Pattern (LBP) characteristics and histogram-oriented gradients on the recorded images as a diagnostic tool in TMD assessment.Material and Methods: CBCT images of 66 patients (132 joints) with TMD and 66 normal...

LBP (Local Binary Pattern) as an image operator is used to extract LBPH (LBP histogram) features for texture description. In this paper, we present a novel method to use LBPH feature in ordinary binary classification problem. Given a restricted local patch, the Chi square distance between the extracted LBPH and a reference histogram is used as a measure of confidence belonging to the reference ...
