pattern classification tasks in digital pathology, which involves the analysis of high resolution digital slides of tissue samples for medical diagnosis, are, like many other medical decision making processes, often imbalanced. this means that there are (many) more training samples of some classes available compared to others, while it is often the minority class(es) that are of medical interest. In this paper, we present strategies for addressing class imbalance in pattern classification problems including the development of cost-sensitive fuzzy classifiers and the derivation of ensemble classification methods, that is classifiers that employ multiple predictors, dedicated for imbalanced classification.

Speed measurement is one of the key components of intelligent transportation systems. It provides suitable information for traffic management and law enforcement. this paper presents a versatile and analytical model for a video-based speed measurement in form of the probability density function (PDF). In the proposed model, the main factors contributing to the uncertainties of the measurement are considered. Furthermore, a guideline is introduced in order to design a video-based speed measurement system based on the traffic and other requirements. As a proof of concept, the model has been simulated and tested for various speeds. An evaluation validates the strength of the model for accurate speed measurement under realistic circumstances.

In this paper, we propose a new approach to multi-people activity recognition in outdoor scenes. the proposed method is based on Hidden Markov Models with parameters of reduced dimensionality. Most existing work is based on HMMs and DBNs, and focuses on the interactions between two objects. However, longer feature vectors of HMMs usually lead to covariance matrix singularity in parameter learning and activity recognition. Moreover, arbitrary structure of DBNs can introduce large computational complexity. Compared with former works, the proposed method named PCA-HMMs reduces the dimensionality of the model parameters while retains most of the original variability, and thus avoids overflowing and weakens the constraints on observations in conventional HMMs. the experimental results proved that the modified HMMs are effective solutions for multi-people interactive activity recognition.

In recent years, many gait recognition algorithms have been developed, but most of them depend on a specific view angle. However, view angle variation is a significant factor among those that affect gait recognition performance. It is important to find the relationship between the performance and the view angle. In this paper, we discuss the effect of view angle variation on appearance-based gait recognition performance. A multi-view gait database (124 subjects and I I view directions) is created for our research. We propose two models, a geometrical one and a mathematical one, to model the effect of view angle variation on appearance-based gait recognition. these models will be valuable for designing robust gait recognition systems.

In this paper we address the problem of localisation and recognition of human activities in unsegmented image sequences. the main contribution of the proposed method is the use of an implicit representation of the spatiotemporal shape of the activity which relies on the spatiotemporal localization of characteristic, sparse, 'visual words' and 'visual verbs'. Evidence for the spatiotemporal localization of the activity are accumulated in a probabilistic spatiotemporal voting scheme. the local nature of our voting framework allows us to recover multiple activities that take place in the same scene, as well as activities in the presence of clutter and occlusions. We construct class-specific codebooks using the descriptors in the training set, where we take the spatial co-occurrences of pairs of codewords into account. the positions of the codeword pairs with respect to the object centre, as well as the frame in the training set in which they occur are subsequently stored in order to create a spatiotemporal model of codeword co-occurrences. During the testing phase, we use Mean Shift Mode estimation in order to spatially segment the subject that performs the activities in every frame, and the Radon transform in order to extract the most probable hypotheses concerning the temporal segmentation of the activities within the continuous stream.

the fundamental matrix is an effective tool to analyze epipolar geometry. An accurate solution for obtaining fundamental matrices is the basic requirement in many applications of computervision. When noises and outliers exist in the set of initial match points, the estimation of the fundamental matrix becomes to a tough mission owing to the invalidation of normal linear and iterative methods. this paper proposes a novel robust technique for estimating the fundamental matrix by combining bucketing technique and the least trimmed squares(LT S) regression into one intelligent algorithm. the new algorithm solves the problem of even distribution of sample data. Also, it eliminates limitations on the proportion of outliers and the requirement a predefined threshold. Comparing with traditional robust methods, the proposed approach is proved to be accuracy and robust by simulation and real image experiments.

this article describes the use of gesture recognition techniques in computervision as a natural interface for video content navigation, and the design of a navigation and browsing system that caters to these natural means of computer-human interaction. For consumer applications, video content navigation presents two challenges: (1) how to parse and summarize multiple video streams in an intuitive and efficient manner, and (2) what type of interface will enhance the ease of use for video browsing and navigation in a living room setting or an interactive environment. In this paper, we address the issues and propose the techniques that combine video content navigation with gestures, seamlessly and intuitively, in an integrated system. the current framework can incorporate speech recognition technology. We present a new type of browser for browsing and navigating video content, as well as a gesture recognition interface for this browser.
