This classifier works on eye candidate regions extracted from a face image and represented by a reduced number of features, selected by Principal Component Analysis. The regions are determined considering that in an image window containing the eye, the grey level distribution will generally assume a pattern of adjacent light-dark-light horizontal and vertical stripes, corresponding to the eyelid, pupil and eyelid, respectively. For training, validation and testing, a database was built with a total of 4,400 images. Experimental results have shown that the proposed approach correctly detects more eyes than any of two existing systems (Rowley-Baluja-Kanade and Machine Perception Toolbox), for eye location error tolerances from 0 to 5 pixels. Considering an error tolerance of 9 pixels, the correct detection rate achieved was above 90%.","PeriodicalId":434632,"journal":{"name":"XX Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing (SIBGRAPI 2007)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123207445","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}

However, there are many color models available; the inherent difficulty is how to automatically select a single color model or, alternatively, a subset of features from several color models producing the best result for a particular task. To achieve proper colors components selection, in this paper, it was proposed the use of wrapper method, a data mining approach, to obtain repeatability and distinctiveness in segmentation process. The result was compared with neural network method and yields good feature discrimination. The method was verified experimentally with 108 images from Amsterdam library of objects images (ALOI) and 10 aerial images with different photometric conditions. Furthermore, it has shown that the color model selection scheme provides a proper balance between color invariance (repeatability) and discriminative power (distinctiveness).","PeriodicalId":434632,"journal":{"name":"XX Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing (SIBGRAPI 2007)","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132190006","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}

This paper presents a method for human identification based on dental work information. The proposed method works with three main processing steps: segmentation (feature extraction), creation of a dental code, and matching. In the segmentation step, seed points of the dental works are detected by thresholding. The final segmentation is obtained with a snake (active contour) algorithm. The dental code is defined from the position (upper or lower), the size of the dental works, and distance between neighboring dental works. The matching stage is performed with the Edit distance (levenshtein distance). The costs for the insertion, deletion and substitution operations were adapted to make the matching algorithm more sensitive. The method was tested on a database including 68 dental radiographs and the results are encouraging.","PeriodicalId":434632,"journal":{"name":"XX Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing (SIBGRAPI 2007)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125662485","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}

To cope with this problem, we propose a new approach considering the maximum cardinality matching of a bipartite graph to measure video clip similarity with a target video stream which has not been prep recessed. We show that our approach locates edited video clips, but it does not deal with insertion and removal of frames/shots, allowing only changes in the temporal order of frames/shots. All experiments performed in this work have achieved 100% of precision for two different video datasets.

Two such applications can be as a pedagogical tool for enhanced perception of complex topics, or as an everyday aid that helps engineers interpret the outcome of simulations. In this paper we try to meet both these objectives and propose a novel approach to three- dimensionally visualize time-varying electromagnetic fields and show how this can be applied to improve the understanding of propagating radio waves used in wireless communication networks. To obtain this, we use a numerical version of Maxwell's equations to create snapshots of a propagating electromagnetic field. In this manner we are able to not only, intuitively get a better general understanding of radio waves, but also disclose important phenomena such as diffraction, reflection, attenuation and multipath behavior.","PeriodicalId":434632,"journal":{"name":"XX Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing (SIBGRAPI 2007)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123914347","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}
