It has been widely used in various human-related image processing applications. Although many researches have been carried out for skin color detection, there is no consensus on which color space is the most appropriate for skin color detection because many researchers do not provide strict justification of their color space choice. In this paper, a comprehensive comparative study using the Multilayer Perceptron artificial neural network (MLP), which is a universal classifier, is carried out to evaluate the overall performance of different color-spaces for skin detection. It aims at determining the most optimal color space using color and color-texture features separately. The study has been carried out using images of different databases. The experimental results showed that the YIQ color space gives the highest separability between skin and non-skin pixels among the different color spaces tested using color features. Combining color and texture eliminates the differences between color spaces but leads to much more accurate and efficient skin detection.","PeriodicalId":368100,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128796554","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}

These phenomena also play a decisive role in determining the degree of reliability of many kinds of outdoor applications, such as aerial and satellite imaging, surveillance, and driver assistance systems. Thus, removing their effects from images/videos is very crucial. Due to its mathematically ill posed nature, enhancement process of rain, fog, and haze plagued images/videos is highly challenging. In this paper, we propose a fast yet robust technique to enhance the visibility of video frames using the dark channel prior combined with fuzzy logic-based technique. The dark channel prior is a statistical regularity of outdoor haze-free images based on the observation that most local patches in the haze-free images contain pixels which are dark in at least one color channel, where the fuzzy logic-based technique is used to map an input space to an output space using a collection of fuzzy membership functions and rules to decide softly in case of uncertainties. The combination of the dark channel and the fuzzy logic-based technique will produce high quality haze-free images in real-time. Furthermore, it will be combined with rules derived from the stable atmospheric scattering model and will yield a fast yet high quality enhancement results.","PeriodicalId":368100,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124007167","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}

At the present time, a vehicle's communication is exposed to many security threats such as Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, in which a malicious node forges a large number of fake identities. Internet Protocol (IP) spoofing of addresses - is initiated to disrupt the proper functioning of the fair data transfer between two fast moving vehicles. In this paper, the Bloom-filter-based detection method, which provides the availability of a service for the legitimate vehicles in the VANET, as used to detect and defend against the IP spoofing of addresses of the DoS attacks. The IP spoofing of addresses in the DoS attacks which is committed by fraudulent and malicious nodes has been investigated. This method provides a secure communication and also frees the bandwidth. This proposed approach requires fewer resources and is easy to deploy. Simulation results have shown that this method is efficient and effective to defend against and detect DoS attacks. Specifically, this method provides a faster detection time, lower storage capacity and computational cost.","PeriodicalId":368100,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125294314","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}

Motivated by this special characteristic, facial expression recognition rapidly gains attention in social computing fields, especially in Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Identifying the optimal set of facial emotion markers is an important technique that not only reduces the feature vector dimensionality, but also impacts the recognition accuracy. In this paper, we propose a new emotion marker identification algorithm for automatic and person-independent 3D facial expression recognition system. First, we mapped the 3D face images into the 2D plane via conformal geometry to reduce the dimensionality. Then, the identification algorithm is designed to seek the best discriminative markers and the classifier parameters simultaneously by integrating three techniques viz., Differential Evolution (DE), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Speed Up Robust Feature (SURF). The proposed system yielded an average recognition rate of 79% and outperformed the previous studies using the Bosphorus database.","PeriodicalId":368100,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS)","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123394582","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}

Visual and aural interactions have been widely applied in various domains ranging from mobile industry to medical field. In Virtual reality stress therapy application particularly in the proliferation development towards the virtualization of traditional foot reflexology therapy, little is understood on the visual and aural interactive nature of the therapy and to what extent they contribute in relaxation and stress relief. This paper presents a study that examines from both the patients' and practitioners' perspective, the visual and aural interactive nature in foot reflexology domain since the practices promote relaxation and stress relief. The study explored 2 traditional foot reflexology sessions; data were collected through audio recorded semi-structured interview, and was analyzed using content analysis. Results were compared with the existing haptic exploratory procedures. The study findings presented the visual and aural interactive nature involved from the patients' and practitioners' perspective. Implications for future research are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":368100,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS)","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122885418","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}

Therefore when an algae biologist establishes an abundance assessment for algae biodiversity, the taxonomic identification and quantification could frequently lead to a time intensive procedure which is prone to a counting bias, due to fatigue when processing large pools of data samples repeatedly. To improve the effectiveness, this paper proposed a framework, being an assistive tool, to help marine biologists. The framework consists of (1) pre-processing the image, (2) segmenting region of interest, (3) extracting features (namely four different geometric features), (4) evaluating and combining those features based on the given decision criterions, and (5) the quantification. Our methodology achieved satisfactory performance (NVH abundance) as it's able to provide an encouraging result with 78.38% detection rate yielded by the comparison between manual count and our system automatic count. The major contribution of this work is the development and the deployment of an automatic identification system, named U3S, for biodiversity abundance studies of algae to assist the marine biologist in identifying algae species, complementing the existing operator intensive procedures.","PeriodicalId":368100,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS)","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133639787","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}
