This work presents a new iris recognition method based on steerable pyramid transform. This method consists of four steps: localization, normalization, features extraction and matching. After locating the iris boundaries by Hough Transform, normalization is operated by unwrapping the circular ring and isolating the noisy regions. Steerable pyramid filters are then used to capture orientation details from the iris texture. The features are extracted on each filtered sub-image to form a fixed length feature vector which will be compared to other vectors in the matching step. This technique has been tested on infrared light iris images. It has been compared, in both identification and verification modes, to known methods.

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for image completion with automatic structure propagation. This method integrates two stages: Firstly, it extends the salient structure lines from the known regions to the unknown by following a local self-similarity assumption on natural images. Then guided by the structure information, it restores the missing region by patch-based texture synthesis. Experiment results demonstrate a better effect of our method than that of the previous patch-based texture synthesis image completion algorithm.

In many application fields, an appropriate high-quality fast image upsampling method is required. Although many interpolation-based upsampling methods have been proposed, the quality of result images is not satisfactory. Some of them are very fast, but produce poor quality images, the others can produce high quality images, but the methods in them are slow. In our paper, we proposed a fast statistical image upsampling method based on CUDA, it can obtain high quality images based on reducing the input resolution-grids dependency artifacts. Thus, we can rebuild low resolution images' sharp edges fast and get high-quality upsampled images in real time. We have applied this method in the multi-resolution texture generation of large scale terrain rendering. Experiments prove that our method can receive ideal effects in real time.

Constructing the pyramidal architecture for the feature is currently a very effective way to obtain feature information of objects at different scales. Although the feature pyramid can realize the recognition and detection of multi-scale objects in the object detection task well, it still has some limitations. Since the feature information of different levels is often not from the same layer of the network, it is difficult to obtain the feature of different objects information at a certain scale from a certain level feature map of the pyramid network. To solve this problem, we present a novel object detection architecture, named Enhanced Multi-scale Feature Fusion Pyramid Network (EMFFPNet). Our network consists of Enhanced Multi-scale Feature Fusion Module (EMFFM) and Predictor Optimization Module (POM). In EMFFM, Features at different levels can be fused into the Enhanced features as outputs, which are more representative and deterministic. In order to enable the enhanced features to play their respective roles in the pyramid network, we assign different weights to fusion features of different levels in POM. We perform the experiments on the COCO detection benchmark. The experimental results indicate that the performance of our model is much better than the state-of-the-art model.

A method used for recognition and understanding of airfield based on mathematical morphology is proposed in this paper. The new approach can he divided into three steps. First, to extract the typical geometric structure features of airfield, a segmentation method called recursive Otsu algorithm is employed on an airfield image. Second, thinning and shrinking algorithms are utilized to obtain the contour of airfield with single pixel and to remove diffused small particles. Finally, Radon transform is adopted to extract two typical and important components, primary and secondary runways of airfield exactly. At the same time, region growing algorithm is exploited to get the other components such as parking apron and garages. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method gives good performance.

The existence of imbalanced data between one class and another class is an important issue to be considered in a classification problem. One of the well-known data balancing technique is the artificial oversampling, which increase the size of datasets. In this research, multinomial classification was applied to classify some recorded features obtained from a single ECG (electrocardiograph) sensor. Therefore, a Dirichlet process, a dirichlet distribution of cumulative distribution function of each data partition, was needed to model the distribution of the new generated data by also considering the statistical properties of the previous data. Data balancing process had given the result of 77.21% classification accuracy (CA), and 90.9% area under ROC curve (AUC).

Under some special conditions, the P3P problem can have 1, 2, 3 and 4 solutions, and if the 3 control points and the optical center lie on a circle, the problem is indeterminate. In this paper, by the Monte Carlo approach of up to 1 million samples, it is shown that the probabilities of the P3P problem with one solution, two solutions, three solutions, and four solutions are respectively 0.9993, 0.0007, 0.0000, 0.0000. The result confirms the well-known fact that in the most cases, the P3P has a unique solution.
