The problem of segmentation has been thoroughly studied but never been completely solved. During this paper, we propose a novel representation of fingerprint image with the added polari-metric information which is captured by Stokes Imaging System, and followed by a simple yet efficient segmentation of fingerprint image based on the polarimetric variance (Polvar). Polarimetric characteristic is another distinguishable feature beside intense that reflecting light carries, and it provides potential way to enhance the contrast between background and foreground, and between ridges and valleys as well. And therefore, there is a possibility to achieve a satisfactory segmentation results. Non-overlapping block Polvar feature is utilized to accelerate computation, and moreover the segmentation results that are based on other common used features are compared, that is block energy, block coherence, block cluster degree. Experimental results show that our proposed novel method is much efficient than the other features and simultaneously achieve higher accuracy especially it well segments the case of remaining ridges from previously scanned finger. Segmentation results are evaluated both visually by human inspire and quantitatively.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83033634","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, it handles zones in the robot workspace with different degrees of desirability. Given the random quality of paths that are calculated by traditional randomized approaches, this provides a mean to specify a sampling strategy that controls the search process to generate better paths by simply annotating regions in the free workspace with degrees of desirability. Second, our approach can efficiently re-compute paths in dynamic environments where obstacles and zones can change shape or move concurrently with the robot. The new path planner is implemented within an automated planning application for generating 3D tasks demonstrations involving a teleoperated robot arm on the International Space Station (ISS). A typical task demonstration involves moving the robot arm from one configuration to another. Our objective is to automatically plan the position of cameras to film the arm in a manner that conveys the best awareness of the robot trajectory to the user. For a given task, the robot trajectory is generated using the new path planner. The latter not only computes collision free paths but also takes into account the limited direct view of the ISS, the lighting conditions and other safety constraints about operating the robot. A suitable camera planning system is then used to find the best sequence of camera shots following the robot on its path.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"28 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78740193","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 approach is applied to the identification of the writer of ancient Greek inscriptions that in turn may offer precise and objective dating of the inscriptions content. Such a dating is crucial for the correct history writing. The methodology is based on the idea of creating an ideal representative of each alphabet symbol in each inscription, via proper fitting of all realizations of the specific symbol in this inscription. Next, geometric features for the ideal representative for each alphabet symbol are defined and extracted and corresponding statistical processing follows based on the computation of the mean value and variance of these characteristics. The decision for writer identification is made via pair-wise, feature based comparisons of the ideal representatives of the inscriptions. Each comparison is implemented by means of multiple statistical tests and an introduced maximum likelihood approach. The system was applied to 33 Athenian inscriptions of classical era which were correctly attributed to 8 different hands, namely with 100% success rate.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"79 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79892656","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}

Its detections are crucial for developing an automated screening program. This paper proposes a method to automatically detect the OD and fovea in fundus images in three stages: OD vessel candidate detection, OD vessel candidate matching, and fovea detection. The first stage is achieved with multi-scale Gaussian filtering, scale production, and double thresholding to initially extract the vessels' directional map. The map is then thinned before another threshold is applied to remove pixels with low intensities. This result forms the OD vessel candidates. In the second stage, a Vessels' Directional Matched Filter (VDMF) of various dimensions is applied to the candidates to be matched, and the pixel with the smallest difference designated the OD center. Finally, the fovea is detected as the pixel with lowest intensity in a window either to the left or right of the OD center. We tested the proposed method on a subset of a new database consisting of 139 images from a diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening programme. The OD center and fovea were successfully detected with accuracies of 96.4% (134/139) and 98.1% (105/107) respectively.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"64 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80338816","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}

An estimated 50 million people around the world suffer from this condition, and it is classified as the second most serious neurological disease known to humanity, after stroke. With early and accurate detection of seizures, doctors can gain valuable time to administer medications and other such anti-seizure countermeasures to help reduce the damaging effects of this crippling disorder. The time-varying dynamics and high inter-individual variability make early prediction of the seizure state a challenging task. Many studies have shown that EEG signals do have valuable information that, if correctly analyzed, could help in the prediction of seizures in epileptic patients before their occurrence. Several mathematical transforms have been analyzed for its correlation with seizure onset prediction, and a series of experiments were done to certify their strengths. New algorithms are presented to help clarify, monitor, and cross-validate the classification of EEG signals to predict the ictal (i.e. seizure) states, specifically the preictal, interictal, and postictal states in the brain. These new methods show promising results in detecting the presence of a preictal phase prior to the ictal state.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"46 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78818378","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 objective is to keep the cross-track error to the reference path inside a given tolerance interval. The adversarial behavior models system uncertainty and unknown or poorly estimated bounded disturbances. The first step to that objective is the computation of an invariant set, namely the maximal set of states that the vehicle may enter while ensuring that the cross-track error will never exceed the tolerance interval. This is done through dynamic programming. Two modes of operation are then considered: when the vehicle is inside the invariant set, the objective is to stay inside it while minimizing a combination of the actuation effort and cross-track error; otherwise, the objective becomes to reach the invariant set in minimum time. Each mode corresponds to a different optimal control problem which is dealt independently; thus, each mode has a corresponding control law. We discuss efficient ways of computing and implementing those control laws on currently available computational systems. For the purpose of the dynamic programming approach, the autonomous vehicles are modeled as an unicycle. Simulations with a six degree of freedom nonlinear model of an autonomous submarine are performed in order to illustrate the robustness of the control strategy.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"76 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87053248","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}

Toward this end, performance evaluation metrics are used as important measures to achieve these goals. This paper intends to be a further step towards identifying common metrics for task-oriented human-robot interaction. We believe that within the context of human-robot interaction systems, both human and robot independent actions and joint interactions can significantly affect the quality of the accomplished task, thus proposing a generic performance metric to assess the performance of the human-robot team. Toward the efficient modelling of such metric, we also propose a fuzzy temporal model to evaluate the human trust in automation while interacting with robots and machines to complete some tasks. Trust modelling is critical as it directly influences the interaction time that should be directly and indirectly dedicated toward interacting with the robot. Another fuzzy temporal-based model is also presented to evaluate the human reliability during interaction time, as many research studies state that a large percentage of system failures are due almost equally to humans and machines, and therefore, assessing this important factor in human-robot interaction systems is also crucial. The proposed framework is based on the most recent work in the area of cognitive human-machine interaction and performance evaluation.","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"9 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88732555","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}
