According to the characters of vibration signal coming from gearboxes, a method using chaotic oscillator is presented to detect the early fatigue crack of the gear. This method is in a reverse way compared with the common chaotic oscillator based method. After introduction of gearbox vibration signals to the chaotic oscillator, by recognizing the state transformation of the oscillator from large-scale period to chaos, the state of two side bands of meshing frequency can be confirmed, and then the crack can be detected. The method is demonstrated in practice. In this paper, it is also presented how to use symbol sequence statistics to automatically identify the state transformation of the chaotic oscillator.","PeriodicalId":443433,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Vehicular Electronics and Safety, 2005.","volume":"125 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122112777","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 a normal two-step detection framework: image segmentation (thresholding) and recognition, the pedestrian areas usually connect with other objects after segmentation, especially in cluttered nighttime images. The bad segmentation result causes the recognition module not to identify the pedestrians. This paper presents a fast template matching approach to locate the most pedestrian-like areas (candidates) in the complex background. At most of the time, the template matching method produces too many non-human candidates. However, our approach employs a set of efficient and simple filters to reject most of unwished candidates to reduce false alarm rate. Experiments show that the proposed method can segment the pedestrian areas well and promote the ability of the pedestrian detection system.","PeriodicalId":443433,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Vehicular Electronics and Safety, 2005.","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129053609","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 this paper, a systems-oriented framework for developing computer vision technology for safer automobiles is presented. We will consider three main components of the system, driver, vehicle, and vehicle surround. We will discuss various issues and ideas for developing models for these main components as well as activities associated with the complex task of safe driving.

Based on the results analysis, one may come to a conclusion that the key factors affecting recognition rate are the color distortion caused by the color complexity. This paper present a new solution according to the idea of simplifying the complex problem, using color information and intelligent approach. The first step is to break the complex color information down to 5 kinds of standard color, and then employ BP neural network to classification. In this article BP network is used for color standardization, selecting 23 normalization signs as training set and 531 real signs as testing set for BP network. By doing so 100% average recognition rate is achieved. At the same time, it shows the better robustness of the proposed approach for the color distortion of traffic sign in terms of either the structure parameter or the training parameter of network.","PeriodicalId":443433,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Vehicular Electronics and Safety, 2005.","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133681042","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}
