The facial images captured from such low-resolution pictures make severe impacts on the performance of various systems namely human-computer interaction, speaker recognition by mouth movements, visual speech recognition, facial expression recognition, face-recognition, etc. Facial image super-resolution (or hallucination), as one of the kernels innovations in the field of computer vision and image processing, has been an engaging but challenging technique to overcome above problems. This paper provides the comprehensive survey of existing state-of-the-art and recently published face hallucination methods. Along with this, the detailed reconstruction procedure of most successful hallucination approach i.e., position-patch based super-resolution is also provided in this work. Moreover, some useful research directions are too presented at the end which may help the research community of this filed to design and develop the new face hallucination methods for providing the more efficient solution to existing problems.","PeriodicalId":175757,"journal":{"name":"2018 Conference on Information and Communication Technology (CICT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131238481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since there can be vast growth in the field of machine learning, humans from past few years trying to make computer interaction with the humans. To do so it took various steps whether it is about the facial expression recognition or about other fields of machine learning. We proposed a novel way to deal with distinguishing the feeling in view of the lips structure over the time frame. This paper presents the work done in the field of facial expression recognition with the help of geometric maps representation of the lips portion including the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier to get more accuracy in the final result and then plot a graph which gives us an approximate estimation of the expression of the humans.

In this attack, malicious senders on receiving the congestion indication, increase their congestion window instead of decreasing. Random Early Detection (RED), which is one of the current Active Queue Management (AQM) schemes, fails to identify such flow that leads to unfair sharing of bandwidth. Therefore, we present a unique solution which works on top of RED to detect and mitigate the anomalous flows by monitoring the packets present in the gateway buffer.","PeriodicalId":175757,"journal":{"name":"2018 Conference on Information and Communication Technology (CICT)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129647740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Being a non-stationary and non-linear two-dimensional digitized signal, any image can be intrinsically decomposed according to its content and hence, content (or behavior) dependent 2-D intrinsic mode functions (2-D IMFs) can be obtained for their individual processing which collectively results into a highly efficient data restoration from the poorly acquired images. In other words, both texture and illumination based improvements can be efficiently entangled in joint space-spatial-frequency domain. Higher mode augmentation, when employed with gamma, corrected illumination boosting in an image-driven and adaptive manner leads to overall quality improvement of the textured data present in the images. In order to validate the necessity of the proposal, a rigorous experimentation is executed by employing the performance evaluation through standard quality measures and comparison with pre-existing recently proposed and highly appreciated quality enhancement approaches.","PeriodicalId":175757,"journal":{"name":"2018 Conference on Information and Communication Technology (CICT)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125993114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the literature, clustering is a well-known technique which helps to prolong the lifetime of the network. With respect to energy consumption, efficient cluster heads (CHs) selection advertisement and cluster formation in every round are costly within a cluster. The energy efficient coverage preserving (EECP) protocol was developed to provide efficient coverage for longer duration where new CH(s) selection advertisement and cluster formation are performed only when sink finds a better CH candidate in comparison to previously selected CH node. The hybrid routing of EECP protocol assumes single-hop communication from cluster member (CM) to CH and CH to CH/sink. But in case of large network, it is not necessary that the nearest CH/sink is within the communication range of source node. Therefore, nodes must transmit their data towards the sink in multi-hop manner. Also for CHs selection in EECP protocol, sink requires residual energy information of nodes in every round which causes rapid energy consumption of nodes in large network. To handle this issue, Enhanced EECP protocol is proposed in this paper where sink receives residual energy information only when CH’s energy goes below the certain threshold. This minimizes the energy consumption of the network to some extent. The simulation results show that proposed Enhanced EECP protocol prolongs the network and coverage lifetime by 50.35% and 157.59% respectively in comparison to EECP protocol.","PeriodicalId":175757,"journal":{"name":"2018 Conference on Information and Communication Technology (CICT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130687991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The features in the noisy images get greatly compromised, owing to which the Salient Object Detection (SOD) is difficult. Moreover, the existing research has not yet been matched the performance of humans for detecting the visual saliency in noisy environment. Therefore, this work highlights a novel SOD technique in noisy environment using convolutional neural network (CNN), while the salient object detection accuracy has been well maintained. The denoising of the image is performed using CNN which comprises the coordinate descent as a regularizing function. The performance of our proposed V-SIN technique has been assessed with four evaluation parameters, computing time, recall, precision, and F-measure on two publicly available image datasets. The experimental evaluations on these two dataset shows that the proposed model has been much robust to detect salient object in the presence of noise or mixture of noises in images.","PeriodicalId":175757,"journal":{"name":"2018 Conference on Information and Communication Technology (CICT)","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116256347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
