However, fake iris is a potential threat there are potential threats for iris-based systems. This paper presents a novel fake iris detection method based on the analysis of 2-D Fourier spectra together with iris image quality assessment. First, image quality assessment method is used to exclude the defocused, motion blurred fake iris. Then statistical properties of Fourier spectra for fake iris are used for clear fake iris detection. Experimental results show that the proposed method can detect photo iris and printed iris effectively.","PeriodicalId":292956,"journal":{"name":"2008 Chinese Conference on Pattern Recognition","volume":"16 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116720781","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}

Each neighborhood of a local feature is described by a list of nonzero indices, and generates a transaction. An efficient mining of frequent item sets algorithm is used to automatically find spatial configurations of local features occurring frequently on a class instance. These mined spatial configurations can be used as special words, incorporate into bag of features classification model. Through evaluation on PASCAL 2007 Visual Recognition Challenge dataset set, the test results show that this mining algorithm is computationally efficient and allows to process large training sets rapidly. Moreover, the mined feature configurations have higher discriminative power compare to individual features.","PeriodicalId":292956,"journal":{"name":"2008 Chinese Conference on Pattern Recognition","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126401985","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}

They can be used for video analysis and content-based retrieving. Text location, which is the first and the most important step of text information extraction, affects the following recognition results considerably. In this paper, we strive to propose a text location method based on stroke extraction and conditional morphology. The stroke map of the input image is first got by a stroke extraction operator. Then, to remove the non-text disturbances in the stroke map, we introduce an improved method of morphology: conditional morphology. Compared with the original method, conditional morphology can not only remove the non-text noises but also enhance the text information, which improves the location performance remarkably. At last, the precise location of texts can be obtained by some merge-split rules with a combination of connected component analysis method. Experimental results show that our approach performs well with high speed and precision.","PeriodicalId":292956,"journal":{"name":"2008 Chinese Conference on Pattern Recognition","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123367520","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 method is based on image segmentation, region recognition, image fusion and color transfer. Firstly visible image and IR image are fused based on the curvelet transform. At the same time, a color database is formed by grouping a set of natural color images according to their scene contents. A false color image obtained by assigning the source images to RGB channels is segmented with the multiscale normalized cuts method. Then each segmented region is recognized by support vector machine (SVM) and automatically associated with a natural color image. Finally the colors of the natural color image are transferred to the segmented region in a perceptually decorrelated color space. Experiments show that the image colorized by the proposed method resembles the natural color appearance and will help the observer interpreting the scene more intuitively than produced by other coloring methods.","PeriodicalId":292956,"journal":{"name":"2008 Chinese Conference on Pattern Recognition","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132108979","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}
