thermography provides an interesting modality for diagnosing breast cancer as it is a non-contact, non-invasive and passive technique that is able to detect small tumors, which in turn can lead to earlier diagnosis. We perform computer-aided diagnosis of breast thermograms based on image features describing bilateral differences in regions of interest and a pattern classification approach that learns from previous examples. As is often the case in medical diagnosis, such training sets are imbalanced as typically (many) more benign cases get recorded compared to malignant cases. In this paper, we address this problem and perform classification using an ensemble of one-class classifiers. One-class classification uses samples from a single distribution to derive a decision boundary, and employing this method on the minority class can significantly boost its recognition rate and hence the sensitivity of our approach. We combine several one-class classifiers using a random subspace approach and a diversity measure to select members of the committee. We show that our proposed technique works well and leads to significantly improved performance compared to a single one-class predictor as well as compared to state-of-the-art classifier ensembles for imbalanced data.

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS, also called ground-based Light Detection and Ranging, LIDAR) is an effective data acquisition method capable of high precision, detailed 3D models for surveying natural environments. However, despite the high density, and quality, of the data itself, the data acquired contains no direct intelligence necessary for further modeling and analysis - merely the 3D geometry (XYZ), 3-component color (RGB), and laser return signal strength (I) for each point. One common task for LIDAR data processing is the selection of an appropriate methodology for the extraction of geometric features from the irregularly distributed point clouds. Such recognition schemes must accomplish both segmentation and classification. Planar (or other geometrically primitive) feature extraction is a common method for point cloud segmentation;however, current algorithms are computationally expensive and often do not utilize color or intensity information. In this paper we present an efficient algorithm, that takes advantage of both colorimetric and geometric data as input and consists of three principal steps to accomplish a more flexible form of feature extraction. First, we employ a Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC) superpixel algorithm for clustering and dividing the colorimetric data. Second, we use a plane-fitting technique on each significantly smaller cluster to produce a set of normal vectors corresponding to each superpixel. Last, we utilize a Least Squares Multi-class Support Vector machine (LSMSVM) to classify each cluster as either "ground", "wall", or "natural feature". Despite the challenging problems presented by the occlusion of features during data acquisition, our method effectively generates accurate (> 85%) segmentation results by utilizing the color space information, in addition to the standard geometry, during segmentation.
Image segmentation occupies the important position in image processing, so both high-efficiency and accurate segmentation are of great importance to image's subsequent research. In this paper, taking the color and...

this paper presents the possibility of recognizing sleep dependent memory consolidation using multi-modal sensor data. We collected visual discrimination task (VDT) performance before and after sleep at laboratory, hospital and home for N=24 participants while recording EEG (electroencepharogram), EDA (electrodermal activity) and ACC (accelerometer) or actigraphy data during sleep. We extracted features and applied machinelearning techniques (discriminant analysis, support vector machine and k-nearest neighbor) from the sleep data to classify whether the participants showed improvement in the memory task. Our results showed 60–70% accuracy in a binary classification of task performance using EDA or EDA+ACC features, which provided an improvement over the more traditional use of sleep stages (the percentages of slow wave sleep (SWS) in the 1 st quarter and rapid eye movement (REM) in the 4th quarter of the night) to predict VDT improvement.

E-learning device is widely used in our daily life. However mobile e-learningmachine is not satisfied as expected. Most mobile e-learning device is a static learning device, unable to fulfill the requirement of collaboration, long standby time, usage under strong sunlight. To meet these requirements, we developed a learningmachine based on electronic paper. this paper will discuss the software consideration of the device. the software is a knowledge navigation system, the navigation system is based on Ontology. Research shows that combine frame Ontology and description logic together can afford a uniform interface to user application.

the purpose of this paper is to set up a classification framework of online learning activities. Fifty-nine online learning activity cases were collected from seven disciplines. Open coding, axial coding, and selective coding were conducted according to Grounded theory. After step-by-step validation, the classification framework consists of six core categories (Argumentation, Resource Sharing, Collaboration, Inquiry, Evaluation, and Social Network) has been set up. Further study is needed to get more insight into each category and establish effective activity-based instruction models.

We propose a novel approach using Complete Local Binary pattern feature generation method for facial expression recognition withthe help of Multi-Class Support Vector machine. Complete Local Binary pattern method is an extended version of Local Binary pattern method with a little difference. LBP feature considers only signs of local differences, whereas CLBP feature considers both signs and magnitude of local differences as well as original center gray level value. CLBP and LBP have same computational complexity while CLBP performs better facial expression recognition over LBP using SVM training and multiclass classification with binary SVM classifiers. the experimental result demonstrate the average efficiency of recognition of propose method (35 images) with CLBP is 86.4%, while with LBP and CCV is 84.1255% and 75.83% in the JAFFE database.
