This paper is to improve the nodule candidate detection using deep neural networks. We treat the nodule detection task as pixel-level segmentation problem. Based on the 2D U-NET network. We build a multi-level network to process each CT slice to detect more nodules. Weighted dice loss function is designed to maintain a high sensitivity. More important, different from normaly segmentation problem, it has a heavily unbalanced positive and negative samples. We proposed a training method to make the network converge easily. We further propose an effective non-maximum suppression (NMS) method to remove duplicate nodules. The proposed framework has been validated on LUNA16 dataset. We achieved 94.3% sensitivity score, and had a 1/3 times of false positives less than the official methods of LUNA which is better for false positive reduction task. We provide a deep neural network solution for nodule candidate detection and the experimental result demonstrates the effectiveness of our method. It can also be used for input of the false positive reduction task.","PeriodicalId":324982,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Graphics and Signal Processing","volume":"139 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127475638","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}

When we use the Euclidean distance to retrieve person, it is observed that the weight vectors in a fully connected layer are usually correlated, which makes a large impact on the retrieval result. Singular Vector Decomposition is adopted to decorrelation in this article, which has a better performance with the restraint and relaxation iteration training. Meanwhile, we add a k-reciprocal method to above result, our hypothesis is based on a gallery image is more likely to match the probe when they are in the k-reciprocal nearest neighbors. So we combine a k-reciprocal feature which is calculated by encoding its k-reciprocal nearest neighbors into a single vector under Jaccard distance and original distance as the final distance.

The approach can judge whether there are bicycle ways or not, mark cycle lanes through cycle lane lines detection. Besides, for stereo vision has advantages at three-dimensional reconstruction, using binocular stereo vision can help us get cycle lane's position relative to cameras through binocular stereo vision more easily.

Every year the lives of more than 1.25 million people are cut short as a result of a road traffic crash. A common cause of accidents is driving faster than one can stop within their field of vision. Measuring a vehicle's speed using video data is an important technique in determining the cause of a traffic accident. When on-site distance measurement cannot be carried out for a video recorded by a surveillance camera, the speed of a vehicle moving along a straight line in the video can be measured by selecting 2 reference points on the body of the vehicle and computing the speed of the vehicle during the time when the part of the vehicle between the reference points passed an environment point. The 2-reference-point method is widely used in traffic accident investigations in China. However, in real-world applications it often lacks high accuracy. In this paper we propose an improved method based on camera calibration. The proposed method selects 4 coplanar points on the body of the vehicle and computes their world coordinates by camera calibration. The speed is measured based on the movements of the 4 points. Experiments confirmed that the proposed method outperforms the 2-reference-point method.","PeriodicalId":324982,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Graphics and Signal Processing","volume":"28 22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129215011","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}

First, this algorithm takes advantage of first-order radial distortion coefficient to correct image primary and then extracts the control points to fit line based on orthogonal distance, getting accurate linear slope. Next, according to the slopes of collinear points, distortion correction index function is established and then all distortions parameters are obtained by optimizing the function using optimization algorithm. Finally, camera can be calibrated linearly with single image that have been corrected based on Zhengyou Zhang algorithm. Distortion parameters, separated from the camera model, do not need to be incorporated into the camera model for multiple repeated calibrations. On the one hand, it solves the problem that Zhengyou Zhang algorithm can not be used in camera systems with a low depth of field. On the other hand, it avoids the instability of solution caused by coupling of distortion parameters, internal parameters and external parameters as well as the complex computations of three LM optimization. A large number of analysis and experiments prove that this algorithm is simple, efficient and has wide application in theory and practice.","PeriodicalId":324982,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Graphics and Signal Processing","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131182972","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}

Convolutional Networks have evolved to the state-of-the-art technique for computer vision tasks owing to the predominant feature extraction capability. However, the working process of Convolutional Networks is invisible, which makes it difficult to optimize the model. To evaluate a Convolutional Network, we introduce a novel way to project the activities back to the input pixel space, revealing what input pattern originally caused a specific activation in the feature maps. Using this visualization technique, we take the feature extraction of sunflower seed image containing an impurity as an example, and attempt to change the architecture of traditional Convolutional Networks in order to extract better specific features for target images. After a series of improvements, we got a new Convolutional Network which is more conducive to the target images feature extraction and the number of parameters is less than before, which is conducive to the transplantation of the small system. Our model can be docking the state-of-the-art recognition networks according to different application scenarios, so as to structure a complete automatic recognition system.","PeriodicalId":324982,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Graphics and Signal Processing","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132231249","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 deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and the fast Sparse Representation-based Classification (SRC) have achieved promising results in face recognition. However, CNNs require large databases and extremely expensive computations to overcome other algorithms. In this paper, we propose a novel SRC-based algorithm using test input image sets and training sub-databases, and compare its performance with CNNs. Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG) descriptors are used to define a new technique, named Training Image Modification (TIM), which provides image training sets with large variations of faces. The proposed algorithm divides the image training set into a number of sub-databases to address the dimensionality problem, and uses a test input image set to extract a signature from each sub-database using SRC. Each signature contains the same number of images as the test image set, although these may belong to different subjects. Considering all the sub-databases sequentially, the algorithm uses the signature of each sub-database to compute the number of images belonging to each subject. The signature that produces the Maximum Number of Images (MNI) of the same subject will have captured this subject for identification. YouTube Celebrity (YTC) and Multi-PIE databases are used in this work to evaluate the efficacy of the proposed method, which achieves high recognition rates. For relatively small databases, the proposed method is simple, scalable and stable, and it results in good face recognition rate under large face variations, as demonstrated by comparison with CNNs.","PeriodicalId":324982,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Graphics and Signal Processing","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122844352","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}

Currently, the measurement of vegetable crop's phenotypic parameters is time-consuming and can cause damage to crops. Thus there is a demand for rapid non-destructive measurement of crop phenotypic parameters. In this paper, we design a system to extract the two main parameters (leaf area and average leaf angle). The initial point cloud obtained from an RGB-D camera is segmented by employing Locally Convex Connected Patches based on supervoxel clustering. After comparing with other reconstruction algorithms, we choose Greedy Projection Triangulation to reconstruct the segmented leaves. In addition, random sample consensus is used to extract phenotypic parameters from the constructed mesh. More than one hundred sets of RGB-D data are collected to verify the feasibility of the system. Experiments show that the system is able to segment most of the leaves effectively and the extracted phenotypic parameters achieve acceptable accuracy.","PeriodicalId":324982,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Graphics and Signal Processing","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121702702","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}
