there are many video images where hand written text may appear. therefore handwritten scene text detection in video is essential and useful for many applications for efficient indexing, retrieval etc. Also there are many video frames where text line may be multi-oriented in nature. To the best of our knowledge there is no work on handwritten text detection in video, which is multi-oriented in nature. In this paper, we present a new method based on maximum color difference and boundary growing method for detection of multi-oriented handwritten scene text in video. the method computes maximum color difference for the average of R, G and B channels of the original frame to enhance the text information. the output of maximum color difference is fed to a K-means algorithm with K = 2 to separate text and non-text clusters. Text candidates are obtained by intersecting the text cluster withthe Sobel output of the original frame. To tackle the fundamental problem of different orientations and skews of handwritten text, boundary growing method based on a nearest neighbor concept is employed. We evaluate the proposed method by testing on our own handwritten text database and publicly available video data (Hua's data). Experimental results obtained from the proposed method are promising.

there are four main problems that limit application of patternrecognition techniques for recognition of abnormal cardiac left ventricle (LV) wall motion: 1) Normalization of the LV's size, shape, intensity level and position;2) defining a spatial correspondence between phases and Subjects;3) extracting features;4) and discriminating abnormal from normal wall motion. Solving these four problems is required for application of patternrecognition techniques to classify the normal and abnormal LV wall motion. In this work, we introduce a normalization scheme to solve the first and second problems. Withthis scheme, LVs are normalized to the same position, size, and intensity level. Using the normalized images, we proposed an intra-segment classification criterion based on a con-elation measure to solve the third and fourth problems. Application of the method to recognition of abnormal cardiac MR LV wall motion showed promising results.
Transductive inference has gained popularity in recent years as a means to develop pattern classification approaches that address the specific issue of predicting the class label of a given data point, instead of the ...

Human cortical folding pattern has been Studied for decades. this paper proposes a gyrus scale folding pattern analysis technique via cortical surface profiling. Firstly, we sample the cortical Surface into 2D profiles and model them using power function. this step provides boththe flexibility of representing arbitrary shape by profiling and the compactness of representing shape by parametric modeling. Secondly, based on the estimated model parameters, we extract affine-invariant features on the cortical Surface and apply the affinity propagation Clustering algorithm to parcellate the cortex into regions with different shape patterns. Finally, a second-round surface profiling is performed on the parcellated cortical regions, and the number of hinges is detected to describe the gyral folding pattern. Experiments demonstrate that our method could successfully classify human gyri into 2-hinge, 3-hinge and 4-hinge gyri. the proposed method has the potential to significantly contribute to automatic segmentation and recognition of cortical gyri.

Frequent pattern discovery, the task of finding sets of items that frequently occur together in a dataset, has been at the core of the field of data mining for the past sixteen years. In that time, the size of datasets has grown much faster than has the ability of existing algorithms to handle those datasets. Consequently, improvements are needed. In this paper we take the classic algorithm for the problem, A Priori, and by adding a vertical sort drastically improve its performance characteristics when processing very large data sets. We use the benchmark large dataset webdocs from the FIMI 2004 conference to contrast our performance against several state-of-the-art implementations and demonstrate both equal efficiency with lower memory usage at all support thresholds and also the ability to mine support thresholds as yet unattempted in literature. We also indicate how this work can be extended to achieve yet more impressive results.

the diagnosis of colorectal cancer is usually supported by a staging system, such as the Duke or TNM system. In this work we discuss computer-aided pit-pattern classification of surface structures observed during high-magnification colonoscopy in order to support dignity assessment of colonic polyps. this is considered a quite promising approach because it allows in vivo staging of colorectal lesions. Since recent, research work has shown that the characteristic surface structures of the colon mucosa exhibit texture characteristics, we employ a set of texture image features in the wavelet-domain and propose a novel classifier combination approach which is similar to a combination of experts. the experimental results of our work show superior classification performance compared to previous approaches on both a two-class (non-neoplastic vs. neoplastic) and a more complicated six-class (pit-pattern) classification problem.
