In this poster, we present an approach to contex-tualized semantic image annotation as an optimization problem. Ontologies are used to capture general and contextual knowledge of the domain considered, and a genetic algorithm is applied to realize the final annotation. Experiments with images from the beach vacation domain demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach and illustrate the added value of utilizing contextual information.
The polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PSAR) images are modeled by a mixture model that results from the product of two independent models, one characterizes the target response and the other characterizes the spe...

Shape from focus (SFF) method determines the degree of focus in a sequence of observations to estimate the shape of a 3-D object. Existing SFF algorithms use an ad hoc interpolation strategy to account for the error due to the finite step-size by which the translational table is moved while capturing the images. We propose an improved SFF method that uses relative defocus blur derived from actual image data to arrive at the final estimates of the shape of the object. A space-variant image restoration scheme is also proposed to obtain a focused image of the 3-D object. The shape estimates as well as the quality of the restored image using the proposed method are superior to that of traditional SFF

In this paper, the performance of five classifiers in P300 speller paradigm are compared. Theses classifiers are Linear Support Vector Machine (LSVM), Gaussian Support Vector Machine (GSVM), Neural Network (NN), Fisher Linear Discriminant (FLD), and Kernel Fisher Discriminant (KFD). In classification of P300 waves, there has been a trend to use SVM classifiers. Although they have shown a good performance, in this paper, it is shown that the FLD classifiers outperform the SVM classifiers. FLD classifier uses only ten channels of the recorded electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. This makes them a very good candidate for real-time applications. In addition, FLD approach does not need any optimization similar to other methods. In addition, in this paper, it is shown that the efficiency of using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for feature reduction results in decreasing the time for the classification and increasing the accuracy

Artifact removal is an essential part in electroencephalogram (EEG) recording and the raw EEG signals require preprocessing before feature extraction. In this work, we implemented three filtering methods and demonstrated their effects on the performance of different classifiers. Bandpass digital filtering, median filtering and facet method are three preprocessing approaches investigated in this paper. We used data set lib from the BCI competition 2003 for training and testing phase. Our accuracy varied between 80% and 96%. In our work, we demonstrated that the problems of choosing the classifier and preprocessing methods are not independent of each other. Two of our approaches could achieve the 96% accuracy i.e. 31 of 32 characters were predicted correctly. These two approaches have different classifier and different preprocessing method. It means that the performance of each classifier can be enhanced with a specific preprocessing method. In our approach, we used only three electrodes of 64 applied electrodes. Therefore it can noticeably reduce the time and cost of EEG measurement

In this paper, we propose a personal verification method using both face and speech to improve the rate of single biometric verification. False acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR) have been a fundamental bottleneck of real-time personal verification. The proposed multimodal biometric method is to improve both verification rate and reliability in real-time by overcoming technical limitations of single biometric verification methods. The proposed method uses principal component analysis (PCA) for face recognition and hidden markov model (HMM) for speech recognition. It also uses fuzzy logic for the final decision of personal verification. Based on experimental results, the proposed system can reduce FAR down to 0.0001%, which provides that the proposed method overcomes the limitation of single biometric system and provides stable personal verification in real-time.
