AbstrAct This chapter describes a new pattern recognition method: pattern recognition-based morphological structure. First, smooth following and linearization are introduced based on difference chain codes. Second, morphological structural points are described in terms of smooth followed contours and linearized lines, and then the patterns of morphological structural points and their properties...

The license plate recognition system is part of the intelligent transportation system. In the intelligent transportation system, the vehicle image is used as the system input. The first step is to improve the image, after the edge detection, a series of morphological operations are performed to identify the plaque. The main purpose of this research was to increase the importance of plate re...

License plate recognition (LPR) by using morphology has the advantage of resistance to brightness changes; high speed processing, and low complexity. However these approaches are sensitive to the distance of the plate from the camera and imaging angle. Various assumptions reported in other works might be unrealistic and cause major problems in practical experiences. In this paper we considered ...

The aim of this study was to explore the relative contributions of phonological, semantic radical, and morphological awareness to Chinese word recognition in deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children. Measures of word recognition, general intelligence, phonological, semantic radical, and morphological awareness were administered to 32 DHH and 35 hearing children in Hong Kong. Hierarchical regress...

The aim of this study was to examine the symbiosis relationshipbetween some arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and Salsola laricina (Chenopodiaceae), a non-mycotrophic plant speciesand its effect on improving plant growth parameters. Initially, the development of AMF density was monitored through two parameters including evaluation of mycorrhizal colonization of plant roots and density measurem...

One of the most refined techniques for investigating morphological processing in word recognition is the variant of the lexical decision task known as repetition priming (Stanners, Neiser, Hernon, & Hall 1979). It provides a primary source of evidence, according to Henderson (1989), of facilitation between words formed from the same morpheme (i.e., morphological relatives). Generally, target (s...

We describe a fast, high-performance name recognizer for Arabic texts. It combines a patternmatching engine and supporting data with a morphological analysis component. The role of the morphological analysis in accurate name recognition is discussed. VCe also provide evaluations of both morphological analysis and name recognition.

Recognition of genetic reserves and desirable genes is the basis of breeding programs. So far, in Iran, due to the lack of recognition of genetic resources, a considerable breeding program has not been done on native plants. The study of the genetic diversity of violets as a native plant with ornamental and medicinal uses is the great importance in advancing the breeding goals of this plant. So...
