the ignorance on spatial information and semantics of visual words becomes main obstacles in the bag-of-visual-words (BoW) method for image classification. To address the obstacles, we present an improved BoW representation using spatial pyramid coding (S PC) and visual word reweighting. In SPC procedure, we adopt the sparse coding technique to encode visual features withthe spatial constraint. Visual features from the same spatial sub-region of images are collected to generate the visual vocabulary. Additionally, a relaxed but simple solution for semantic embedding into visual words is proposed. We relax the semantic embedding from ideal semantic correspondence to naive semantic purity of visual words, and reweight each visual word according to its semantic purity. Higher weights are given to semantically distinctive visual words, and lower weights to semantically general ones. Experiments on a public dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

this paper presents a system that can automatically segment objects in large scale 3D point clouds obtained from urban ranging images. the system consists of three steps: the first one involves a ground detection process that can detect relatively complex terrain and separate it from other objects. the second step superpixelizes the remaining objects to speed up the segmentation process. In the final step, a manifold embedded mode seeking method is adopted to segment the point clouds. Even though the segmentation of urban objects is a challenging problem in terms of accuracy and problem scale, our system can efficiently generate very good segmentation results. the proposed manifold learning effectively improves the segmentation performance due to the fact that continuous artificial objects often have manifold-like structures.

Traditional generations of camouflage pattern were an artistic and manually work. Most of current computer aided camouflage pattern designs focused on a single background to produce the pattern for. In our proposed method, a multi background camouflage pattern is designed using Fuzzy C Means (FCM) clustering method followed by a object thinning algorithm to combine clustered backgrounds with each other. the goal is to generate patterns with similarity to all backgrounds. Experimental results and their evaluations demonstrate generated patterns inherited color and texture characteristics of all backgrounds.

In this paper, we evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the global image descriptors and their distance metric functions in the domain of object recognition and near duplicate detection. Recently, the global descriptor GIST has been compared withthe bag-of-words local image representation, and has achieved satisfying results. We compare different global descriptors in two famous datasets against mean average precision (MAP) measure. the results show that Fuzzy Color and Texture Histogram (FCth) is outperforming GIST and several MPEG7 descriptors by a large margin. We apply different distance metrics to global features so as to see how the similarity measures can affect the retrieval performance. In order to achieve the goal of lower memory cost and shorter retrieval time, we use the Spectral Hashing algorithm to embed the FCth in the hamming space. Querying an image, from 1.26 million images database, takes 0.16 second on a common notebook computer without losing much searching accuracy.

Pedestrian Detection is of interest in many computervision applications such as intelligent transportation systems and human-robot interaction; among the existing methods, the combination of shape feature (i.e. Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG)) and texture features (i.e. Local Binary pattern (LBP)) has shown promising results in detection accuracy, but it is limited due to computation cost. In this paper, we introduce a new pedestrian detection algorithm with fast computation of these features on GPU. We propose a robust and rapid pedestrian detector by combining the HOG with LBP, as the feature set and corresponding Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers. Also, we use the integral image method and an efficient parallel implementation to reduce detection time. We can achieve a more than 10× speed up, and 7% increase in detection rate.

Sensor pattern noise (SPN) as the fingerprint of imaging devices, could be used as a reliable feature in digital source identification. In this paper, we introduce a new method which uses the probability model of SPN to identify the source. To achieve this goal, after extracting the SPN of some images, they are digitized and then for each value, the distribution of its neighbors is modeled separately ("Value-Model"). Finally by using the value-model, the quantized SPN is mapped to the probability domain. the average of probability matrix of some images of same camera forms camera model. this SPN model causes noticeable increases in the true detection rate of the source. To evaluate the efficiency of proposed approach, we do some benchmark on our hypothesis. the accuracy and performance of our model compared to similar works, proves high efficiency of the proposed theory.
