EEG signals exhibit spatio-temporal characteristics due to the neural activity dispersion in space over the brain and the dynamic temporal patterns of electrical activity in neurons. This study tries to effectively utilize the spatio-temporal nature of EEG signals for diagnosing encephalopathy using a combination of novel locality preserving feature extraction using local binary patterns (LBP) and a custom fine-tuned Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network. A carefully curated primary EEG dataset is used to assess the effectiveness of the technique for treatment of encephalopathies. EEG signals of all electrodes are mapped onto a spatial matrix from which the custom feature extraction method isolates spatial features of the signals. These spatial features are further given to the neural network, which learns to combine the spatial information with temporal dynamics summarizing pertinent details from the raw EEG data. Such a unified representation is key to perform reliable disease classification at the output layer of the neural network, leading to a robust classification system, potentially providing improved diagnosis and treatment. The proposed method shows promising potential for enhancing the automated diagnosis of encephalopathy, with a remarkable accuracy rate of 90.5%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to compress and represent both spatial and temporal features into a single vector for encephalopathy detection, simplifying visual diagnosis and providing a robust feature for automated predictions. This advancement holds significant promise for ensuring early detection and intervention strategies in the clinical environment, which in turn enhances patient care.

Schizophrenia is a neuropsychiatric disorder that hampers brain functions and causes hallucinations, delusions, and bizarre behavior. The stigmatization associated with this disabling disorder drives the need to build diagnostic models with impeccable performances. Neuroimaging modality such as structural MRI is coupled with machine learning techniques to perform schizophrenia diagnosis with increased reliability. We investigate the structural aberrations present in the structural MR images using machine learning techniques. In this study, we propose a new hybrid approach using spatial and frequency domain-based features for the early automated detection of schizophrenia using machine learning techniques. The spatial or texture features are extracted using the local binary pattern method, and frequency-based features, including magnitude and phase, are extracted using the fast fourier transform feature extraction technique. Hybrid features, combining spatial and frequency-based features, are utilized for schizophrenia classification using support vector machine, random forest, and k-nearest neighbor with stratified 10-fold cross-validation. The support vector machine and random forest classifiers achieve encouraging detection performances on the hybrid feature set, with 86.5% and 85.1% accuracy, respectively. Among the three classifiers, k-nearest neighbor shows outstanding detection performance with an accuracy of 98.1%. The precision and recall achieved by the k-nearest neighbor classifier are 98.1% and 98.0% respectively, reflecting accurate detection of schizophrenia by the proposed model.

The necessity for personal data protection has become increasingly critical in recent years. The single trait-based authentication fails in many cases and hence multimodal biometric traits are utilized in this work. This research work focuses on the utilization of multimodal biometric traits for authentication. The face, fingerprint, and finger vein traits are considered in this work, feature extraction was done by local binary pattern and for the optimization of features, adaptive particle swarm optimization was employed. The extreme learning machine was proposed here for the classification and proficient results were generated. For the iteration count of 40 and population count of 30 of the optimization algorithm, the authentication model sensitivity and specificity are 95.69 and 94.29%. The outcome of this research work paves the way toward proficient security authentication.

In this paper, a handcrafted feature descriptor namely local Extrema Min-Max pattern (LEMMP) is introduced for static hand gesture recognition (HGR). LEMMP thoroughly characterizes the discriminative information between a specific coefficient and its nearby neighbors within a local window. The proposed approach extracts 2nd -order local information by encoding the most informative directions contained within multiple discrete spatial associations from each neighborhood pixel using a two -structure encoding method, which helps in detecting the gray level variations that may occur in different directions. LEMMP encodes the structure of hand gestures utilizing texture information in an easy -to -understand and compact coding scheme, resulting in improved accuracy with less memory and time as compared to existing approaches. Furthermore, the features extracted by the proposed LEMMP are classified using SVM classifier. The proposed LEMMP is tested on nine benchmark HGR datasets. The experimental results and the visual analysis demonstrate that the proposed LEMMP outperforms the existing state-of-the-art approaches with an accuracy of 52%(ASL Static), 92% (MUGD Set1), 98% (MUGD Set2), 75%(MUGD Set3), 64%(MUGD Set4), 71%(MUGD Set5), 98%(ASL Digit), 85% (NUSI Dataset), 80% (NUS -II Dataset), 99% (ASLFS A), 99% (ASLFS B), 99%(ASLFS C), 96%(ASLFS D), 99%(ASLFS E), 39% Bengali Sign Language, 70% (HG -14 Dataset) and 42% (OU Hands) respectively.

Sometimes realistic face representation is confronted with blur or low-resolution face images, as a result, existing classification methods are not powerful and robust enough. This paper proposes a novel face representation approach (GLL) which fuses Gabor filter, local binary pattern (LBP) and local Phase Quantization (LPQ). In the process of Gabor filter, it uses Gabor wavelet functions with two scales and eight orientations to capture the salient visual properties in face image. On this basis of Gabor features, we acquire LBP features and LPQ features, respectively, so as to fully explore the blur invariant property and the information in the spatial domain and among different scales and orientations. Experiments on both CMU-PIE and Yale B demonstrate the effectiveness of our GLL when dealing with different condition face data sets. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

This paper proposes the use of information fusion technology to identify different wood species by combining spectral and spatial information from hyperspectral images and terahertz (THz) spectra. The study utilized five species of coniferous wood as experimental samples. The hyperspectral and terahertz raw images and spectra acquired by the spectroscopic instruments were preprocessed using standard normal variational transform (SNV). Three methods, namely, competitive adaptive reweighting (CARS), uninformative variable elimination (UVE), and random frog hopping (RF), were employed to select relevant frequency features in both hyperspectral image spectral information and THz spectra. For hyperspectral image spatial information, three algorithms, grayscale co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), local binary pattern (LBP), and Gaussian Markov random field (GMRF) were used to extract texture features. Subsequently, these three sets of extracted features were recognized separately using an extreme learning machine (ELM) model. The results showed that the accuracies achieved by the three features alone in wood identification were 71.8% for the spectral information, 85% for the hyperspectral image spatial information, and 91.7% for THz spectra. However, there was still room for improvement in terms of accuracy. Consequently, the study fused the hyperspectral image spectral and spatial information with THz spectral information, and the ELM model was employed to recognize the fused data. The results indicated that this fusion method led to a substantial enhancement in wood identification accuracy, achieving an impressive 96.7%. This accuracy markedly surpassed the highest recognition accuracy achieved by a single information feature.

Over the last decades, research on facial analysis has witnessed a growing interest and became a very active topic in computer vision. Broadly, it can be addressed in either of the two ways, namely facial representation and classification. Considering the former category, many representations could be found in the literature. One of the most popular representations is the well-known local binary pattern (LBP). In this respect, we propose in this paper a novel alternative to the basic LBP for face representation, termed a modified local binary pattern (MLBP), which we prove its outperformance over other popular techniques. On the other hand, we exploit the sparsity of the representative set of MLBPs for recognizing different face classes. Therefore, compressive sensing theory was employed to construct a so-called sparse representation classifier. Experimental results conducted on three popular face databases pointed out the superiority of our proposed strategy over other state-of-the-art techniques.
LBP is renowned as most powerful texture descriptor. But major issue which LBP possesses is the noisy thresholding function. This sacrifices the discriminativity of the descriptor. To complement that three LBP variant...
