Automatic facial expression analysis is an interesting and challenging problem which impacts important applications in many areas such as human-computer interaction and data-driven animation. Deriving effective facial representative features from face images is a vital step towards successful expression recognition. In this paper, we evaluate facial representation based on statistical local features called local binary patterns (LBP) for facial expression recognition. Simulation results illustrate that LBP features are effective and efficient for facial expression recognition. A real-time implementation of the proposed approach is also demonstrated which can recognize expressions accurately at the rate of 4.8 frames per second.

local binary patterns (LBP) are known as a simple yet powerful texture descriptor encoding local neighbourhood properties. LBP descriptors can be calculated at different radii, leading to a multi-resolution texture characterisation. Multidimensional LBP (MD-LBP) utilises this concept, while also maintaining the relationships between the different scales by building a multi-dimensional histogram of LBP features. Although this has been shown to give good discriminatory power, the resulting feature vectors are also rather large. In this paper, we show that Dominant MD-LBP (D-MD-LBP), which utilises only dominant texture bins, provides an effective texture descriptor of reduced dimensionality as our experimental results, run on three benchmark datasets of the Outex test suite, confirm.

In this work, we present an ensemble of descriptors for the classification of virus images acquired using transmission electron microscopy. We trained multiple support vector machines on different sets of features extracted from the data. We used both handcrafted algorithms and a pretrained deep neural network as feature extractors. The proposed fusion strongly boosts the performance obtained by each stand-alone approach, obtaining state of the art performance.

As the localbinary pattern operator discards a lot of important texture features, a new texture operator is proposed in this paper, the merge local binary patterns(MLBP)By using the absolute differences between P neighbors of the LBP operator and the central pixel, an subtraction operator(SLBP) like LBP is proposed for the robust of the featureBy combining original LBP operator and SLBP operator into joint distribution, texture classification will improve significantlyExtensive experiments in CMU-PIE and AR face database present the advantages of the MLBP method over other methods.

This paper investigates a novel combination of Co-occurrence of adjacent local binary patterns histogram and local binary patterns feature extraction methods for face detection in mobile phone applications. In particular, Co-occurrence of adjacent local binary patterns histogram feature extraction provides exceptionally high discriminative power in face/non-face classification and hence is used to ensure the high accuracy of the proposed face detector. local binary patterns feature extraction has low computation complexity and is thus used to reduce the overall processing speed. In the conducted face detection experiments, the proposed face detector yields comparable or better performance as well as faster computation speed than the existing best methods.

We present an extension of our previous work in [1] by investigating the use of local Septenary patterns (LSP) for breast density classification in mammograms. The LSP operator is a variant of local binary patterns (LBP) inspired by local Ternary patterns (LTP) and local Quinary patterns (LQP). The main extensions in our work are i) we investigate the use of a multi-resolution technique when extracting micro texture information, ii) we investigate different neighbourhood topologies as different ways of extracting texture features, and iii) we use an additional dataset called InBreast as well as the most popular dataset in the literature, which is the Mammographic Image Analysis Society (MIAS) to further evaluate the performance of the LSP operator.

Background: Weeds are a major cause of low agricultural productivity. Some weeds have morphological features similar to crops, making them difficult to discriminate. Results: We propose a novel method using a combination of filtered features extracted by combined localbinary Pattern operators and features extracted by plant-leaf contour masks to improve the discrimination rate between broadleaf plants. Opening and closing morphological operators were applied to filter noise in plant images. The images at 4 stages of growth were collected using a testbed system. Mask-based localbinary pattern features were combined with filtered features and a coefficient k. The classification of crops and weeds was achieved using support vector machine with radial basis function kernel. By investigating optimal parameters, this method reached a classification accuracy of 98.63% with 4 classes in the "bccr-segset" dataset published online in comparison with an accuracy of 91.85% attained by a previously reported method. Conclusions: The proposed method enhances the identification of crops and weeds with similar appearance and demonstrates its capabilities in real-time weed detection.

In recent years, facial expression recognition technology has been widely used in computer vision, security monitoring and image classification. However, in practical application, it is difficult to solve the rotation problem of facial expression image, which leads to the decrease of expression recognition rate and is difficult to meet the actual demand. Although the convolutional neural network (CNN) can extract the high -dimensional features of the image and has the invariance of gray scale, it does not have the invariance of rotation. localbinary model (LBP) is a feature extraction algorithm with rotation invariance, which can solve the rotation problem to some extent. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a face expression recognition algorithm based on CNN and LBP, and compares this algorithm with other algorithms. The simulation results show that this algorithm can improve the expression recognition rate under rotation to some extent.

This paper proposes new feature extractors for colour texture classification based on local binary patterns (LBP) operators which are invariant to rotation, illumination and change of the observation scale, being also robust to Gaussian noise. Our novel approaches are operating in the RGB colour space and are using a state-of-the-art image denoising algorithm embedded into a multiscale LBP feature extraction process. The results obtained in the experimental section for grape leaf disease classification on a public database, using Support Vector Machines, show that the proposed feature extractors bring a significant improvement in terms of accuracy, precision and recall when compared to recent grayscale LBP-based approaches.

Faculty Academic Monitoring is one thing a university has to perform to ensure quality delivery of instructions. That includes proper attendance monitoring of classes, faculty consultations, and others. To address attendance monitoring in CCIS - College of Computing and Information Sciences, a facial detection and recognition was developed to identify a faculty face's important feature from a real-time captured image. The study uses a pre-trained model called facenet but acquires new training data sets to generate the desired classifier for a localized recognition system. The data are cleaned by eliminating duplicates, resizing, cropping into the desired dimension, and labeling each image data. The system used image pre-processing techniques like face alignment algorithm, landmarks, face detection, and localbinary pattern. The study achieved a validation rate of 96.45% using the test validation function and an accuracy rate of 90% in the actual testing.
