Modern imageprocessing applications, like object detection or image segmentation, require high computation and have high memory requirements. For ASIC-/FPGA-based architectures, hardware accelerators are a promising solution, but they lack flexibility and programmability. To fulfill flexibility, computational and memory intensive characteristics of these applications in embedded systems, we propose a modular and flexible RISC-v based MPSoC architecture on Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC. The proposed architecture can be ported to other Xilinx FPGAs. Two neural networks (Lenet-5 and Cifar-10 example) were used as test applications to evaluate the proposed MPSoC architectures. To increase the performance and efficiency, different optimization techniques were adapted on the MPSoC and results were evaluated. 16-bit fixed-point parameters were used to have a compression of 50% in data size and algorithms were parallelized and mapped on the proposed MPSoC to achieve higher performance. A 4x parallelization of a NN algorithm on the proposed MPSoC resulted in 3.96x speed up and consumed 3.61x less energy as compared to a single soft-core processor setup.

Face recognition is one of the most functional research in present scenario, with many practical and commercial applications including identification, access control, forensics, medical care, human-computer interactions, security, etc. Face recognition technique is rapidly becoming the mainstay of state of the art technological security solution. One of the crucial applications of face recognition in the current scenario is linked with security. Identifying people from a crowd or a group of people require an exceptional algorithm. One of the most arduous tasks about the existing face recognition system is the processing or prediction time. The current systems focus on accuracy than speed, which leads to an increase in the detection time. There are several techniques in machine learning and deep learning. But deep learning is preferred more than machine learning for detection and recognition applications because of the large availability of data. An algorithm for fast real-time object detecting and recognizing application is required. YOLO (you only look once) is a single shot deep learning object detection algorithm. In this work, the working of the YOLO algorithm and implementing multiple face recognition using YOLO version 3 is explained. A custom dataset is created from taken from Kaggle and google. At the time of testing the model, a processing speed of 30 ms was obtained.

In modern information systems, decision making based on imageprocessing is hampered by the impact of negative external and internal factors leading to image blurring, which introduces uncertainty in this process. In this regard, algorithms and models are used to reduce the effect of uncertainty in image analysis. The article presents a new adaptive algorithm for imageprocessing in different wave bands. The article also presents the results of research on the training of operators of imageprocessingsystems in conditions of uncertainty. It is proposed to train the operators of these systems on the basis of a competence-based approach using an information system that allows you to create individual training paths for the operators. The implementation of the training information system is proposed to be made on the basis of a web service.

Corner detection represents one of the most important steps to identify features in images. Due to their powerful local processing capabilities, Cellular Nonlinear/Neural Networks (CNN) are commonly utilized in imageprocessing applications such as image edge detection, image encoding and image hole filling. CNN perform well for locating corner features in binary images. However, their use in grayscale images has not been considered due to their design difficulties. In this paper, a corner detector based on CNN for grayscale images is presented. In the approach, the original processing scheme of the CNN is modified to include a nonlinear operation for increasing the contrast of the local information in the image. With this adaptation, the final CNN parameters that allow the appropriate detection of corner points are estimated through the Differential evolution algorithm by using standard training images. Different test images have been used to evaluate the performance of the proposed corner detector. Its results are also compared with popular corner methods from the literature. Computational simulations demonstrate that the proposed CNN approach presents competitive results in comparison with other algorithms in terms of accuracy and robustness. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.v.

Red blood cells (RBCs) play a significant role by carrying essential nutrients and oxygen throughout the body. These cells are shaped as biconcave discs that are flexible enough to pass through small capillaries easily. However, if these cells are irregularly shaped, they may reduce the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood and have difficulty moving through the blood vessels. Blood tests are laboratory methods that are often performed by medical experts to manually determine abnormalities in the blood, but it may be subjective and susceptible to human error. Therefore, recognizing abnormal RBCs automatically through digital imageprocessing would be beneficial. There are existing studies that focus on the application of different imageprocessing techniques in recognizing abnormal RBCs automatically. However, they suffer from certain weaknesses such as: others did not cover all the abnormal RBCs, while the others still encountered a significant error in recognition due to the slim dissimilarities between the attributes that they used. In this study, the proponents sought to improve and provide solution for the limitations of the previous studies by proposing a system that can recognize 9 abnormal RBCs using a machine learning algorithm called Earth Mover's Distance Algorithm which allows partial matching between two different distributions. The test images used in the system are microscopic images of blood samples gathered from the web. The images gathered initially undergone image preprocessing to extract the necessary attributes from multiple regions of interests (ROIs) needed in the computation of the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD). EMD is the measure of dissimilarity between two multi-dimensional distributions in space. The lowest computed EMD represents the smallest dissimilarity of the input image to the template image. As a result, the system displays the total number and label of each abnormal RBCs recognized in a Graphic User Interface (GUI). The proposed sy

Fluorescence (FL) optical imaging modality is an indispensable tool in biomedical research for the discovery of drugs as well as diagnosis. With recent developments in high throughput microscopy hardware platforms, there is an immense need to match and develop automated imageprocessing tools that can aid clinical pathologists and researchers expedite their workflow and analysis. This plays a crucial role when the volume of samples is immense and the workflow is tedious manually. In this report, we successfully demonstrate the ability of our software tool to very specifically detect hotspots in FL images of yeast-based model systems that are employed specifically for the detection of neurodegenerative disorders in systems biology research. The algorithm demonstrated here can achieve more feature extraction than many of the reported morphometric tools available till date particularly while using Fluorescence modality.

In this article we present the NeuTomPy Toolbox, a new Python package for tomographic data processing and reconstruction. The toolbox includes pre-processingalgorithms, artifacts removal and a wide range of iterative reconstruction methods as well as the Filtered Back Projection algorithm. The NeuTomPy toolbox was conceived primarily for neutron tomography datasets and developed to support the need of users and researchers to compare state-of-the-art reconstruction methods and choose the optimal data processing workflow for their data. In fact, in several cases sparse-view datasets are acquired to reduce scan time during a neutron tomography experiment. Hence, there is great interest in improving quality of the reconstructed images by means of iterative methods and advanced image-processingalgorithms. The toolbox has a modular design, multi-threading capabilities and it supports Windows, Linux and Mac OS operating systems. The NeuTomPy toolbox is open source and it is released under the GNU General Public License v3, encouraging researchers and developers to contribute. In this paper we present an overview of the main toolbox functionalities and finally we show a typical usage example. (C) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.v.

Recently, single image super-resolution (SISR) based on sparse representations has been gaining much attention from the research community in the field of remote sensing. In this paper, a fast SISR reconstruction framework is developed for multispectral remote sensing (MSRS) images based on adaptive dictionary learning and sparse representations. It consists of two major parts: first, a novel super-resolution approach is developed for MSRS using sparse coding and adaptive dictionary learning. High-frequency features present in the input low-resolution MS image are extracted by using Butterworth low-pass, difference of Gaussian (DoG), and Sobel filters in horizontal and vertical directions. The proposed feature extraction method reveals the edges and other detailed information present in the MS image effectively. Secondly, massively parallel algorithms are designed for adaptive dictionary learning and sparse reconstruction using the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA)-enabled General Purpose-Graphics processing Unit (GP-GPU) programming model. The proposed method GP-GPU implementation not only gives better results in terms of visual quality and objective fidelity criteria, but also significantly reduces the computation time compared to its CPU counterparts to achieve near-real time operating speed.
