In this work, a methodology to automatically classify of metal targets using patternrecognition techniques on GPR reflection data is presented. The methodology consists of designing a multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifier based on features extracted from the targets in the subsoil, and then using it to classify hyperbolas diffraction indicating their position and depth. The classification of reflections allows a high resolution reconstruction of the subsurface with reduced computing time. The system was developed in MATLAB and applied to GPR data obtained at IAG-USP test site, located in the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil, where metallic drums were studied under controlled field conditions. This site contains different targets of variable sizes buried under different depths and it served as a model for the computational experiment. The results indicate that the automatic classification of the metallic targets in the subsoil is efficient, contributing for the reduction of the ambiguities in the geophysical data interpretation, besides having application on the subsoil mapping of utilities.

Hot events detection in text streams has drawn increasing attention in recent sequential data mining works. Different from traditional TDT task which find all the real events' cluster, hot events detection only identify hot events concerned by public. This paper proposes a novel approach to identify those events based on burst terms, terms co-occurrence and generative probabilistic model. Experiments with huge text stream sets crawled from WWW suggest that our algorithm can work on-line and identify hot events effectively and efficiently.

Fast algorithm for path planning is helpful for artificial intelligence. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a typical evolution method, used widely in path planning. A new GA based on path network is proposed in this paper. Efficient chromosome encoding strategy provided guarantees, and each chromosome represents a feasible path, avoiding the searching circulation. Variation happens at certain positions, making the algorithm assemble quickly. Experimental result shows that the GA combining with path network can plan path quickly. By means of path cells, it works efficiently to produce multi path simultaneously.

It's well-known that visual secret sharing aims at encrypting a secret image into numerous meaningless sharing images by either designing a well-designed codebook or generating random bit sequence, and reconstructing the secret by superimposing them without any computation involved. However, the traditional visual secret sharing schemes only deal with one secret at a time. In this paper, the authors proposed a multi-secret sharing scheme by random grids such that the following advantages are obtained: 1) removing the restriction of limited secret images encrypted into two cipher-grids 2) removing the problem of suffering pixel expansion, and 3) without the need of designing tailor-made codebook.

Theories on sphere-structure support vector machine (SVM) and multi-classification recognition algorithms were studied in the first place, and on this basis, in view of the issue of the difference in the hypersphere radiuses resulted from the difference in the quantity of the training samples and the discrepancy in their distributions, the concepts of relative distance and weight were introduced, and subsequently a new algorithm of sphere-structure SVM multi-classification recognition was proposed on the basis of weighted relative distances. Accordingly, the data from the UCI database were used to conduct simulation experiments, and the results verified the validity of the algorithm propose

This paper proposes a graph-based method for segmentation of a text image using a selected colour-channel image. The text colour information usually presents a two polarity trend. According to the observation that the histogram distributions of the respective colour channel images are usually different from each other, we select the colour channel image with the histogram having the biggest distance between the two main peaks, which represents the main foreground colour strength and background colour strength respectively. The peak distance is estimated by the mean-shift procedure performed on each individual channel image. Then, a graph model is constructed on a selected channel image to segment the text image into foreground and background. The proposed method is tested on a public database, and its effectiveness is demonstrated by the experimental results.

A computer aided detection (CAD) system suffers from vagueness and imprecision in both medical science and image processing techniques. These uncertainty issues in the classification components of a CAD system directly influence the accuracy. This paper takes advantage of type-2 fuzzy sets as three-dimensional fuzzy sets with high potential for managing uncertainty issues in vague environments. In this paper, an automatic optimized approach for generating and tuning type-2 Gaussian membership function (MF) parameters and their footprint of uncertainty is proposed. In this approach, two interval type-2 fuzzy logic system (IT2FLS) methods based on the Mamdani rules model are presented for tackling the uncertainty issues in classification problems in patternrecognition. Furthermore, the Genetic algorithm is employed for tuning of the MFs parameters and footprint of uncertainty. In order to assess the performance, the designed IT2FLSs are applied on a lung CAD application for classification of nodules. The ROC accuracy and mean absolute error (MAE) are considered as the performance indicators. The results reveal that the Genetic IT2FLS classifier outperforms the equivalent type-1 FLS and is capable of capturing more uncertainties.

In order to solve the problem of image degradation caused by dust environments, an image degradation model considering multiple scattering factors caused by dust was first established using the first-order multiple scattering method. Then, a dark channel prior principle was applied to present an image restoration algorithm based on the image degradation model. Finally, GA optimization algorithm was applied to optimize the atmospheric light and the exposure parameters. This optimization algorithm was established according to the criterion of the image evaluation based on kirsch operator with automatic threshold. By using the method an optimistic result of image restoration was obtained. The experimental results have shown that the method not only enhanced luminance and contrast, but also discovered more detail edges information. The method provided a foundation for target recognition in the dust environments.
