Feature extraction has a significant impact on the accuracy of Content -Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) algorithms since the content of images is encoded in feature vectors. In this paper, an effective method for texture feature extraction is proposed based on localpatterns. In the proposed method, first the image is formed in different scales, then the texture features are extracted from the scales of the image. Finally, extracted features of different scales are concatenated to construct the final feature vector. To evaluate the proposed method, five datasets including Corel-1k, Brodatz, VisTex, Corel-10k, STex, Caltech256, and Oliva are used. In the evaluation process, the effect of different scales and different coding schemes on retrieval precision is investigated. The proposed method is compared with existing CBIR models based on localpatterns. The proposed method achieves the best precision of 64.16%, 81.66%, 88.59%, 30.63%, and 69.63%, 13.59%, and 64.10% on the Corel-1k, Brodatz, VisTex, Corel-10k, STex, Caltech256, and Oliva datasets, respectively.

Globally, cancer remains a major health challenge due to its high mortality rates. Traditional experimental approaches and therapies are resource-intensive and often cause significant side effects. Anticancer peptides (ACPs) have emerged as alternative therapeutic agents owing to their selectivity, safety, and potential to mitigate drug resistance. In this paper, we propose pACPs-DNN, a novel attention mechanism-based deep learning model developed for the accurate prediction of ACPs and non-ACPs. The pACPs-DNN model transforms input peptides into image representations using residue-wise energy contact matrix (RECM), substitution Matrix Representation (SMR), and Position Specific Scoring Matrix (PSSM) embeddings, followed by local binary pattern (LBP)-based decomposition to capture enhanced structural and local semantic features. These transformations generate novel feature sets, including RECM_LBP, LBP_SMR, and LBP_PSSM. Subsequently, a two-tier feature selection approach is employed to identify a high-ranking optimal feature set, which is then used to train an attention-based deep neural network. The proposed pACPs-DNN model achieves an impressive training accuracy of 96.91 % and an AUC of 0.98. To evaluate its generalization capability, the model was validated on independent datasets, demonstrating significant improvements of 5 % and 3.5 % in accuracy over existing models on the Ind-I and IndII datasets, respectively. The demonstrated efficacy and robustness of pACPs-DNN highlight its potential as a valuable tool for advancing drug discovery and academic research in cancer-related therapeutic development.

Infrared spectral identification task which is an essential branch of infrared spectroscopy, has been extensively studied. In this article, we proposed an efficient description representation model with the local binary pattern (LBP) strategy, and applied to infrared spectral searching and identification. The idea is motivated by the fact that spectral curve can be considered as a composition of micro-patterns such as peaks, troughs, valley and flat lines which are well described by LBP. The whole spectral lines are split into several small sections, and then extracted the spectral LBP features. The method is capable of extracting both the local and holistic spectral features and robust to random noise and baseline interferences. Experimental results on the public infrared spectral dataset demonstrate that the proposed spectral identification method can significantly raise performance when noise and baseline interferences are present.

Objective: Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is a common sleep disorder, which has been shown to be an important contributor to major neurocognitive and cardiovascular sequelae. Considering current diagnostic strategies are limited with bulky medical devices and high examination expenses, a large number of cases go undiagnosed. To enable large-scale screening for SAS, wearable photoplethysmography (PPG) technologies have been used as an early detection tool. However, existing algorithms are energy-intensive and require large amounts of memory resources, which are believed to be the major drawbacks for further promotion of wearable devices for SAS detection. Methods: In this paper, an energy-efficient method of SAS detection based on hyperdimensional computing (HDC) is proposed. Inspired by the phenomenon of chunking in cognitive psychology as a memory mechanism for improving working memory efficiency, we proposed a one-dimensional block local binary pattern (1D-BlockLBP) encoding scheme combined with HDC to preserve dominant dynamical and temporal characteristics of pulse rate signals from wearable PPG devices. Results: Our method achieved 70.17% accuracy in sleep apnea segment detection, which is comparable with traditional machine learning methods. Additionally, our method achieves up to 67x lower memory footprint, 68x latency reduction, and 93x energy saving on the ARM Cortex-M4 processor. Conclusion: The simplicity of hypervector operations in HDC and the novel 1D-BlockLBP encoding effectively preserve pulse rate signal characteristics with high computational efficiency. Significance: This work provides a scalable solution for long-term home-based monitoring of sleep apnea, enhancing the feasibility of consistent patient care.

In response to the problem of unclear texture structure in steel wire rope images caused by complex and uncertain lighting conditions, resulting in inconsistent LBP feature values for the same structure, this paper proposes a steel wire surface damage recognition method based on exponential weighted guided filtering and complementary binary equivalent patterns. Leveraging the phenomenon of Mach bands in vision, we introduce a guided filtering method based on local exponential weighting to enhance texture details by applying exponential mapping to evaluate pixel differences within local window regions during image filtering. Additionally, we propose complementary binary equivalent pattern descriptors as neighborhood difference symbol information representation operators to reduce feature dimensionality while enhancing the robustness of binary encoding against interference. Experimental results demonstrate that compared to classical guided filtering algorithms, our image enhancement method achieves improvements in PSNR and SSIM mean values by more than 32.5% and 18.5%, respectively, effectively removing noise while preserving image edge structures. Moreover, our algorithm achieves a classification accuracy of 99.3% on the steel wire dataset, with a processing time of only 0.606 s per image.

local binary pattern (LBP) and its variants have demonstrated excellent distinguishability in facing different challenges. However, most of these LBP methods use scalar thresholds to encode all neighborhood binarization. There are thus two main problems: 1) they are highly prone to encode two neighborhoods with differences in texture structure as the same LBP code. 2) They cannot describe the interactions between the neighborhood and the information in the region where the neighborhood is located. Given this, this paper proposes a Generalized Multiscale Hierarchical Threshold (GMHT) framework, which can effectively capture texture information at different scales and regions of an image, thus solving the first problem. For the second problem, we propose the Regional Gradient pattern (RGP), which is a 3-D joint and cascade of the gradient operator (G), the extremum operator (E), the variance operator (V) and the center operator (C). Respectively, the four operators encode different texture information of the local and the region to describe the local-region interactions. Benefiting from the calculation method, they are invariant to the grayscale-inversion. Experiments on four texture databases (Outex, KTH-TIPS, CUReT, USPtex1) show that this descriptor achieves state-of-the-art classification results in the presence of linear and even non-linear grayscale-inversion transformations.

Huge emissions of smoke from vehicles elevate the risk of respiratory infections, life-threatening diseases like cancer, heart problems, pulmonary diseases, etc. It is an extremely serious task to detect the smoky vehicles for ensuring proper maintenance and limiting hazardous emissions. Smoky vehicle emissions continue to be a critical challenge and an alarming threat in densely populated areas where the quality of air is poor. This paper proposes an automated method for detecting smoky vehicles from traffic surveillance videos using the structural feature extraction technique. To detect the vehicles, the universal background subtraction algorithm Vibe is used, and based on some rules, non-vehicle objects are removed. The features are extracted from the smoky and non-smoky vehicles using a modified structural co-occurrence matrix. Finally, the random forest classifier is used to classify non-smoky and smoky vehicles. The results evince that the proposed method achieves an overall accuracy of 96.50% and outperforms the other state-of-the-art feature extraction methods.
