A machine vision performs a variety of face verification tasks in different infrastructure environments. A facial recognition system is technically implemented as an image recognition program. It serves to automatically identify a face in an image, and then identify the person by comparing and analyzing the biometric data of the human face. Cameras are able to capture an image at a distance, which is perfect for building monitoring systems and contactless biometrics. Such software systems are particularly important in the context of remote work of employees of industrial enterprises. The purpose of research is to develop and implement a facial recognition web service for the staff department of a machine-engineering enterprise. The web service should work in conjunction with the existing data bank. Tasks of research are: to consider the fundamental algorithms of facial recognition, to formulate the basic requirements for the development and implementation of the corresponding automated web service. The significant result of research is that the developed module uses library of computer vision algorithms, imageprocessing and general-purpose numerical algorithms with open-source code. Identification system was checked by testing on the company's website.

This demo displays an autonomous image acquisition and processing system that operates simultaneously with two image sensors either in the visible and the Long Wave Infrared Band (LWIR), inside the Infrared (IR) band. The entire system is controlled a Raspberry Pi board that allows to easily program imageprocessingalgorithms to process the images acquired with each sensor. It is a competitive alternative to conventional commercial closed systems with infrared cameras. The proposed imaging system can be easily adapted to different operation scenarios by adding new peripherals, sensors and full custom imageprocessingalgorithms.

image steganography is a growing research field, where sensitive contents are embedded in images, keeping their visual quality intact. Researchers have used correlated color space such as RGB, where modification to one channel affects the overall quality of stego-images, hence decreasing its suitability for steganographic algorithms. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an adaptive LSB substitution method using uncorrelated color space, increasing the property of imperceptibility while minimizing the chances of detection by the human vision system. In the proposed scheme, the input image is passed through an image scrambler, resulting in an encrypted image, preserving the privacy of image contents, and then converted to HSv color space for further processing. The secret contents are encrypted using an iterative magic matrix encryption algorithm (IMMEA) for better security, producing the cipher contents. An adaptive LSB substitution method is then used to embed the encrypted data inside the v-plane of HSv color model based on secret key-directed block magic LSB mechanism. The idea of utilizing HSv color space for data hiding is inspired from its properties including de-correlation, cost-effectiveness in processing, better stego image quality, and suitability for steganography as verified by our experiments, compared to other color spaces such as RGB, YCbCr, HSI, and Lab. The quantitative and qualitative experimental results of the proposed framework and its application for addressing the security and privacy of visual contents in online social networks (OSNs), confirm its effectiveness in contrast to state-of-the-art methods.

Lane detection algorithms have been the key enablers for a fully-assistive and autonomous navigation systems. In this paper, a novel and pragmatic approach for lane detection is proposed using a convolutional neural network (CNN) model based on SegNet encoder-decoder architecture. The encoder block renders low-resolution feature maps of the input and the decoder block provides pixel-wise classification from the feature maps. The proposed model has been trained over 2000 image data-set and tested against their corresponding ground truth provided in the data-set for evaluation. To enable real-time navigation, we extend our model's predictions interfacing it with the existing Google APIs evaluating the metrics of the model tuning the hyper-parameters. The novelty of this approach lies in the integration of existing segnet architecture with google APIs. This interface makes it handy for assistive robotic systems. The observed results show that the proposed method is robust under challenging occlusion conditions due to pre-processing involved and gives superior performance when compared to the existing methods.

In recent years, due to improvements in semiconductor technology, FPGA devices and embedded systems have both been gaining popularity in numerous areas, from vehicle-mounted systems to the latest iPhones. Recently, as Intel (Altera) and Xilinx both released their new generations of ARM A9 processor integrated FPGAs, they have become very popular platforms which combine the hardware features of an FPGA and an embedded systems software's flexibility. This makes it suitable platforms to apply complex algorithms for real time processing of video images. Feature tracking is a popular topic in imageprocessing and usually includes one or more pre-processing methods such as corner detection, colour segmentation, etc. that could be undertaken on the FPGA with little latency. After the pre-processing, complex post-processingalgorithms running on the ARM processors, that use the results from the pre-processing, can be implemented in the embedded systems. The research described in this thesis investigated the use of low cost FPGASoC devices for real time imageprocessing by developing a real-time imageprocessing system with several methods for implementing the pre-processingalgorithms within the FPGA. The thesis also provides the details of an embedded Linux based FPGASoC design and introduces the OpenCv library and demonstrates the use of OpenCv co-processing with the FPGA. The tested system used a low cost FPGASoC board, the DE1-SOC, which is manufactured by Terasic Inc. As a platform which contains a Cyclone v FPGA designed by Intel with a dual-core ARM A9 processor, the application developed is based on a customized OpenCv programme running on the ARM processors and concurrently receives the pre-processing result processed by the FPGA. With the FPGA acceleration, the developed system outperforms a software-only system by reducing the total processing time by 48.2%, 49.5% and 56.1% at resolutions of 640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768 separately. This reduction in processing t

Neurological signal processing is of significance not only the physiologist doing research and the clinician investigating patients but also to the biomedical engineer who is needed to collect, process, and interpret the physiological signals by prototyping systems and algorithms for their manipulations. While it is a fact that there does hold immense stuff (material) on the subject of digital neurological signal processing, however, it is dispersed in various scientific, technological, and physiological journals, databases also in various international conference proceedings. Consequently, it is a quite hard, more time-consuming, and often tiresome job, especially to the stranger to the domain Hence, this study concentrates on how much time would require to access the databases belong to the brain signal/image collections, neurological signals, etc. The sixteen US-based Servers, ten UK-based Servers, and the five Servers from other countries are included in this study. Mainly, the domain name system, hyper text transfer protocol, and the Internet control message protocol query/response times are analyzed using a popular packet sniffer called Wireshark.
