The app works offline, since all processing takes place entirely on the device. It was implemented in Objective-C and it leverages functionality from Apple's Core Image API for image processing tasks and CouchbaseLite for the database layer. For face recognition, the app employs local binary patterns -- encoded as spatially enhanced histograms, with weight maps that indicate preferred areas within the cropped image containing the face.

For achieving desired functionality, it is vital to select a particular service which offers similar functionality and while selecting a service, a decision should rely on the relevant Quality of Service(QoS) attributes. Emphasis is being placed on how to find an optimal service which satisfies both the functional and non-functional requirements. Existing approaches either ignore the role of requestors non-functional requirement or assigns an arbitrary value to the constraints to be considered. In this paper, we first formulate the problem mathematically by greedy approach then, generate the optimal solution for the input of service composition. For a large dataset problem of web service,use of quadratic equation is proposed. By simulation,we conclude that by using more than one heuristic approaches,more relevant and optimal results are possible if we use the summing of Z-score and decimal scaling than the min max normalization and a quadratic assignment.","PeriodicalId":283626,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Computer Vision and the Internet","volume":"324 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116436204","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 DCT based features are combined with Block based Binary Pattern (BBP) and hence propose the combined classifier model for shape representation and classification. The small eigenvalue and large eigenvalue are computed for each pixel associated with a shape, capturing the structure of a shape. It is well known fact that the 2D-DCT is capable of capturing the region information and does the energy compaction. Hence, we perform 2D-DCT on these two eigenvalue based matrices to obtain compact representation of the shape and are matched using Euclidean Distance. We have also proposed a variant of local binary pattern called blockwise binary pattern (BBP) which is found to be invariant to rotation and shift of the object. The histogram features obtained due to proposed BBP are matched using Earth Movers Distance (EMD) metric. Finally, to improve the classification accuracy, we have proposed a decision level fusion strategy which integrates 2D-DCT based features with BBP. Extensive experimental results on the publicly available shape databases namely, Kimia-99 and Kimia-216 and MPEG-7 data sets demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method and comparative analysis exhibit that the proposed approach classifies more accurately than many baseline shape matching algorithms.","PeriodicalId":283626,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Computer Vision and the Internet","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126504513","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 most informative terms are highly affected by the correlative association of the terms. The rare terms are most informative than sparse and common terms. The main objective of this study is assigning a higher weight to the rare terms and less weight to the common and sparse terms. The terms weight are computed by giving emphasis on terms- strength, mutual information and strong association with the specific class. In this context, we proposed, a novel hybrid feature selection method named as, Correlative Association Score (CAS) of terms. The CAS utilizes the concept of Apriori algorithm to select the most informative terms. Initially, the CAS select most informative terms from the entire extracted terms. Subsequently, the N-grams of range (1,3) are generated from these informative terms. Finally, the standard Chi Square (χ2) method is applied to select most informative N-grams. The two standard classifiers Multinomial Naive Bayes (MNB) and Linear Support Vector Machine (LSVM) are applied on four standard text data sets Webkb, 20Newsgroup, Ohsumed10, and Ohsumed23.

In spite of considerable strides, it still suffers from the curse of false matches in the presence of variations in terms of parameters such as affine, scale, rotation and illumination. Since, real world images inherently consists of such variations, an effective FR system, should handle such variations deftly. Hence, in this paper, we propose a robust, yet simple and cost effective technique for overcoming some of the aforementioned challenges. The first stage of the proposed system deals with illumination variations by performing logarithm transform on the input face images. Further, the Non-subsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) is used to decompose the logarithm transformed facial images into low frequency and high frequency components. Subsequently, histogram equalization is carried out on the low frequency components. Finally, we employ Affine Scale Invariant Feature Transform (ASIFT) to find corresponding points that are translation and scale invariant. We will demonstrate by carrying out extensive experimentations on the benchmark datasets: ORL, Grimace, Face95 and Yale, that the proposed technique is more robust and yields comparable efficacy to most of the contemporary approaches.","PeriodicalId":283626,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Computer Vision and the Internet","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122254626","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 current scenario, the task of identifying plant from its powder form is done by pharmaceutical companies, which perform this task manually. This process takes lots of effort and time. Microscopic image of powder contains varieties of information, which are important evidence for identification of the plant. With every image, different type of noise are present, which makes the segmentation as a critical job. In this paper, we are proposing an algorithm which performs this task automatically by a computer. Our method consists two steps: \"Pre-Processing\" and \"Image Segmentation\". Firstly, microscopic images of \"Liquorice\" and \"Rhubarb\" plants were taken. On those images Top-hat and Bot-hat transformation are performed. Wiener Filter is used for image smoothing. An image segmentation is performed using Otsu's thresholding algorithm and find region of interest. The extra blobs were removed using morphological operations.
