This paper presents a new feature extraction method for iris recognition. Since two dimensional complex wavelet transform (2D-CWT) does not only keep wavelet transformpsilas properties of multiresolution decomposition analysis and perfect reconstruction, but also adds its new merits: approximate shift invariance, good directional selectivity for 2-D image, and limited redundancy, which are useful for iris feature extraction. So, a set of high frequency 2D-CWT coefficients are selected as features for iris recognition. The phase information of the coefficients is used for feature encoding and Hamming distance is adopted for classification. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can get good recognition rate.

A theoretical study for modeling technique of the remote sensing image classification based on the minimum description length (MDL) principle is presented in the paper. According to the MDL principle, modeling problem is an optimization procedure to find the shortest expected code length. Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence is adopted as the system cost function to measure expected codelength, and the codelength will be the model we desired. The advantage of using the MDL principle to build appropriate model is analyzed theoretically, model optimization technique also is described.

Past decades, numerous spectral analysis based algorithms have been proposed for dimensionality reduction, which plays an important role in machine learning and artificial intelligence. However, most of these existing algorithms are developed intuitively and pragmatically, i.e., on the base of the experience and knowledge of experts for their own purposes. Therefore, it will be more informative to provide some a systematic framework for understanding the common properties and intrinsic differences in the algorithms. In this paper, we propose such a framework, i.e., ldquopatch alignmentrdquo, which consists of two stages: part optimization and whole alignment. With the proposed framework, various algorithms including the conventional linear algorithms and the manifold learning algorithms are reformulated into a unified form, which gives us some new understandings on these algorithms.

To infrared images, the contrast of target and background is low, dim small targets have no concrete shapes and their textures cannot be reliable predicted. The paper puts forward a novel algorithm to fuse mid-wave and long-wave infrared images and detect targets. Firstly, the source images are decomposed by wavelet transformation. In usual, targets in infrared images are man-made, and their fractal dimension is different comparing with natural background. In wavelet transformation domain high-frequency part, we calculate local fractal dimension and set up fusion rule to merge corresponding sub-images of two matching source images. In low-frequency, we extract local maximum gray level to fuse them. Then reconstruct image by wavelet inverse transformation and obtain fused result image. In fusion results, the contrast between targets and background has obvious changes. And targets can be detected using contrast threshold. The experimental results show that the method proposed in this paper using wavelet transformation fractal dimension to fuse dual band infrared images, and then detect targets is better than using mid-wave or long -wave infrared images detect targets alone.

A quick 3D needle segmentation algorithm for 3D US data is described in this paper. The algorithm includes the 3D quick randomized Hough transform (3DGHT), which is based on the 3D randomized Hough transform and coarse-fine searching strategy. We tested it with water phantom. The results show that our algorithm works well in 3D US images with angular deviation less than 1 degree and position deviation less than 1 mm, and the computational time of segmentation with 35 MB data is within 1s.

The software systems which are related to national science and technology projects are very crucial. This kind of systems always involves high technical factors and has to spend a large amount of money, so the quality and reliability of the software deserve to be further studied. Hence, we propose to apply four intelligent classification techniques most used in data mining fields, including Bayesian belief networks (BBN), nearest neighbor (NN), rough set (RS) and decision tree (DT), to validate the usefulness of software metrics for risk prediction. Results show that comparing with metrics such as Lines of code (LOC) and Cyclomatic complexity (V(G)) which are traditionally used for risk prediction, Halstead program difficulty (D), Number of executable statements (EXEC) and Halstead program volume (V) are the more effective metrics as risk predictors. By analyzing obtained results we also found that BBN was more effective than the other three methods in risk prediction.

Classification of multi-source remote sensing images has been studied for decades, and many methods have been proposed or improved. Most of these studies focus on how to improve the classifiers in order to obtain higher classification accuracy. However, as we know, even if the most promising method such as neural network, its performance not only depends on the classifier itself, but also has relation with the training pattern (i.e. features). On consideration of this aspect, we propose an approach to feature selection and classification of multi-source remote sensing images based on Mallat fusion and residual error in this paper. Firstly, the fusion of multi-source images can provide a fused image which is more preferable for classification. And then a featureselection scheme approach based on fused image is proposed, which is to select effective subsets of features as inputs of a classifier by taking into account the residual error associated with each land-cover class. In addition, a classification technique base on selected features by using a feed-forward neural network is investigated. The results of computer experiments carried out on a multisource data set confirm the validity of the proposed approach.

In face recognition, the dimensionality of raw data is very high, dimension reduction (feature extraction) should be applied before classification. There exist several feature extraction methods, commonly used are principle component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) techniques. In this paper, we present a comparative study of some feature extraction methods for face recognition in the same conditions. The methods evaluated here include eigenfaces, kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), fisherfaces, direct linear discriminant analysis (D-LDA), regularized linear discriminant analysis (R-LDA), and kernel direct discriminant analysis (KDDA). For the purpose of comparison on feature extraction methods, we adopt nearest neighbor (NN) algorithm from existed classifiers of face recognition, since this classifier is common and simpleness. Empirical studies are conducted to evaluate these feature extraction methods with images from ORL Face Database, and it is found that in most cases LDA-based methods are efficient than PCA-based ones.
