The H∞ approach is used for the clearance of flight control laws when some parameters in the flight control system vary in a certain range. The proposed H∞ approach is developed from general H∞ theory and is applied to the clearance of a flight control law for a missile. Based on bounded real lemma, two theorems about clearance are deduced, and the clearance problem is transformed to a general linear matrix inequality problem. A BTT missile is chosen as an example to test the proposed method. The simulation result shows that the proposed method is convenient and efficient.

Character information is hard to detect in billet scene images by CCD camera. In this paper, we present a method for detection of billet characters from measurements of recursive segmented image. This recursive segmented method can be used in a wide variety of billet scenes. According to high temperature and complex scene in the rolling line, we use an effective clustering and projection characteristics to determine the terminal condition of recursive segmentation. Then we can label character candidate regions in turn by this effective characteristics, and select the regions we want to achieve. The experiments show that this method makes full use of the characteristics of region and clustering. It can improve the quality of detection, and the detection result meets the need of practical application.

Object classification in traffic scene surveillance has been a hot topic in imageprocessing field. A big challenge is that shooting view changes in different scenes, which leads to sharp accuracy decrease since training and test samples do not share the same distribution. Inductive transfer learning methods try to bridge this gap by making use of manually labeled target samples. However, it is in line with reality to conduct unsupervised transfer without manually labeling. In this paper, we propose an intuitive transductive transfer method by transferring instances across view. Experimental results indicate that our method outperforms traditional approaches such as inductive SVM and cluster method, and could even achieve a comparable performance compared with manually labeling approach.

Human age estimation based on face images can figure in a wide variety of real-world applications. In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient facial age estimation algorithm which decides human age in a hierarchical framework. Biologically, human lives can be roughly divided into two stages, the period from birth to adulthood and the period from adulthood to old age, which are quite different from each other in face growth and aging forms. Considering that craniofacial growth occurs mainly in the first stage while keeps basically stable in the second, based on the shape features, the coarse step of the framework determines which age stage the test sample belongs to using a quadratic function. On the other hand, since the face appearance of individuals in the same age group or even of the same age does have some similarities in common, accurate age estimation within the age stage is solved by Sparse Representation-based classification (SRC) in the fine step. However, SRC requires sufficient training samples in each class and in practice this assumption often does not hold, making the performance of age estimation limited. Accordingly, we take use of the idea of Ordinal Hyperplanes Ranker (OHRank) and weights of samples' numbers in each class to solve the aforementioned problem, improving the age estimation results. Results of experiments conducted on the FG-NET Database demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.

Short message service (SMS) is now an indispensable way of social communication. However the mobile spam is getting increasingly serious, troubling users' daily life and ruining the service quality. We propose a novel approach for spam message detection based on mining the underlying social network of SMS activities. Comparing with strategies on keywords or flow detection, our network-based approach is more robust and difficult to defeat by human spammers. Various levels of features are employed to describe multiple aspects of the network, such as static structures, node activities and evolving situations. Experimental results on real dataset illustrate effectiveness of various features, showing our promising results.

The license plate location technique is an important imageprocessing step in license plate recognition system. Vehicle license plates are distinguished from backgrounds using features proposed in existing literatures. However, the effect of location is quite affected by feature selection. In this paper, we propose a method of precise license plate location fusing salient features. The method is mainly divided into three steps. First, candidate license plate regions are detected using improved Harris corner feature with much less time than traditional method. Then, candidates are sifted to only retain license plates based on two salient features named color combination and mean difference which are first proposed in this paper. Finally, the license plates are located precisely according to the projection feature. In experiment, the proposed algorithm was tested with 1942 real images captured in different environment and the license plates are successfully located as 97.6% in average with only 109ms. The experiment results demonstrates the effectiveness and efficient of our algorithm.

This paper presents a method for extracting and recognizing the billet numbers according to the feature of each number. Its advantages lie in that no template image is required, the requirement to the number in the image is low, and the anti-interference performance is strong. This method is able to recognize the numbers on the billet with a high efficiency.

Tracking the same person across multiple cameras is an important task in multi-camera systems. It is also desirable to re-identify the individuals who have been previously seen with a single-camera. This paper addresses this problem by the re-identification of the same individual in two different datasets, which are both challenging situations from video surveillance system. In this paper, local descriptors are introduced for image description, and support vector machines are employed for high classification performance and so an efficient Bag of Features approach for image presentation. In this way, robustness against low resolution, occlusion and pose, viewpoint and illumination changes is achieved in a very fast way. We get promising results from the evaluation with situations where a number of individuals vary continuously from a multi-camera system.
