this paper proposes a method for segmentation of nuclei of single/isolated and overlapping/touching immature white blood cells from microscopic images of B-Lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) prepared from peripheral blood and bone marrow aspirate. We propose deep belief network approach for the segmentation of these nuclei. Simulation results and comparison with some of the existing methods demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method.

Motivated by deep learning approaches to classify normal and neuro-diseased subjects in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), we propose stacked autoencoder (SAE) based 2-stage architecture for disease diagnosis. In the proposed architecture, a separate 4-hidden layer autoencoder is trained in unsupervised manner for feature extraction corresponding to every brain region. thereafter, these trained autoencoders are used to provide features on class-labeled input data for training a binary support vector machine (SVM) based classifier. In order to design a robust classifier, noisy or inactive gray matter voxels are filtered out using a proposed covariance based approach. We applied the proposed methodology on a public dataset, namely, 1000 Functional Connectomes Project Cobre dataset consisting of fMRI data of normal and Schizophrenia subjects. the proposed architecture is able to classify normal and Schizophrenia subjects with 10-fold cross-validation accuracy of 92% that is better compared to the existing methods used on the same dataset.

this paper proposes an approach for event recognition in Egocentric videos using dense trajectories over Gradient Flow - Space Time Interest Point (GF-STIP) feature. We focus on recognizing events of diverse categories (including indoor and outdoor activities, sports and social activities and adventures) in egocentric videos. We introduce a dataset with diverse egocentric events, as all the existing egocentric activity recognition datasets consist of indoor videos only. the dataset introduced in this paper contains 102 videos with9 different events (containing indoor and outdoor videos with varying lighting conditions). We extract Space Time Interest Points (STIP) from each frame of the video. the interest points are taken as the lead pixels and Gradient-Weighted Optical Flow (GWOF) features are calculated on the lead pixels by multiplying the optical flow measure and the magnitude of gradient at the pixel, to obtain the GF-STIP feature. We construct pose descriptors withthe GF-STIP feature. We use the GF-STIP descriptors for recognizing events in egocentric videos withthree different approaches: following a Bag of Words (BoW) model, implementing Fisher Vectors and obtaining dense trajectories for the videos. We show that the dense trajectory features based on the proposed GF-STIP descriptors enhance the efficacy of the event recognition system in egocentric videos.
In this paper, we propose a novel scale-invariant image inpainting algorithm that combines several inpainted images obtained from multiple pyramids of different coarsest scales. To achieve this, first we build the pyr...

Multispectral multifocus image fusion remains a challenging problem for the researchers in the computervision community. In this paper, we propose a novel solution to the above problem using guided filtering, steerable local frequency and an improved model of saliency. In the first place, promising fusion results are obtained through guided steerable local frequency maps. An accurate saliency map is developed next to further enhance these fusion results. Extensive experimentation on the visual, near infrared and thermal spectra clearly demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach over some of the recently published works. Copyright 2014 ACM.

Duplication of images is a common occurrence in community based data sharing systems. An image of the same scene, residing as multiple copies in the system, introduces redundancy. this paper describes a novel technique to detect such submissions by matching the Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF) of a query image to the feature set of images in the database, which are pre-computed, dimensionality reduced, and indexed. First, a set of similar images is obtained withtheir feature key-point correspondences by computing homography. An occurrence of duplication is verified by statistical hypothesis testing, which considers the distribution obtained by inter-key-point Euclidean distance ratios between the corresponding key-points among the query and candidate images.

Camouaging an object in a photograph is normally performed withthe intent of unnoticeably hiding it within a given image. In this work, we give a different dimension to this problem and raise the interesting issue of camouaging motion blur with special relevance to non-uniformly blurred images. Given a blurred photograph, we apply a suitably derived blurring model to smear a target object and naturally blend it into the motion blurred background by using alpha matting. We validate our photo-realistic compositing approach on several synthetic and real examples. Copyright 2014 ACM.

this paper investigates compression of depthimages-particularly, noisy depthimages-captured by depth sensors like Kinect. Our scheme is based on incrementally detecting planes in depthimages and then storing the plane parameters instead of the depth information of the pixels lying on the detected planes. Residuals are then computed and compressed using standard image compression techniques. Our technique incorporates the input error model for comprehensive and accurate plane detection. thereby, this accounts for the reliability of the input data in the compression scheme. the plane detection also accounts for edges. Experiments exhibit better image quality than standard compression techniques with smaller error. We additionally propose a novel error metric to evaluate compression of noisy depthimages.

Color, texture, and shape are the low level features required for an effective image retrieval system. In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach which performs the fusion of color and texture features for image retrieval. the color features are extracted by using the well known color histogram technique, while the texture features are captured using recently proposed features, known as orthogonal combination of linear binary pattern (OCLBP). the performance of the proposed approach is compared with a recently developed method, color difference histogram (CDH). Performance evaluation through extensive experiments reveals the superiority of the proposed approach over the state-of-the-art technique.

In this paper, a method for color image segmentation using multiscale intuitionistic fuzzy roughness measure is proposed. the traditional roughness measure tends to over focus on the little important homogeneous regions but is not accurate enough to measure the homogeneity in an image. By applying the theories of scale space and using intuitionistic fuzzy representation for images, roughness is measured under multiple scales. Multiscale representation can tolerate the disturbance of trivial regions, and intuitionistic fuzzy representation deals with hesitancy in image boundary, therefore produces precise segmentation results.
