Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAmeliorate Fuzzy C-Means: An Ameliorate Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Algorithm for CT-Lung Image SegmentationJ. Bridget Nirmala, S. GowriEffective and efficient image segmentation acts as a preliminary stage for the computer-aided diagnosis of medical images. For image segmentation, many FCM-based clustering techniques have been proposed. Regrettably, the existing FCM technique does not generate accurate and standardized segmentation results. This is due to the noise present in the image as well as the random initialization of membership values for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 1 Oct 2013 · 6,819 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach for 3D Range Image Segmentation using Gradient MethodDina A. Hafiz, Walaa M. Sheta, Sahar Bayoumi, Bayumy A.B. YoussefProblem statement: Segmentation of 3D range images is widely used in computer vision as an essential pre-processing step before the methods of high-level vision can be applied. Segmentation aims to study and recognize the features of range image such as 3D edges, connected surfaces and smooth regions. Approach: This study presents new improvements in segmentation of terrestrial 3D range images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 19,592 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractColored Image Compression Using Gradient Adjustment Prediction Based WaveletMuna Faik Hanoon Al-SammraieProblem statement: Uncompressed graphics, audio and video data require considerable storage capacity and transmission bandwidth. Despite rapid progress in mass-storage density, processor speeds and digital communication system performance, demand for data storage capacity and data transmission bandwidth continues to outstrip the capabilities of available technologies. The recent growth of data intensive digital audio, image and video (multimedia) based web applications, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,307 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Modified Gaussian Mixture Model for Color-Texture SegmentationM. Sujaritha, S. AnnaduraiProblem statement: This study presents a new, simple and efficient modified Gaussian mixture model based clustering algorithm for color-texture segmentation. The proposed mixture model introduces a new component density function which incorporates spatial information and the weighting factor for neighborhood effect is fully adaptive to the image content. Approach: It enhances the smoothness towards piecewise-homogeneous segmentation and reduces the edge-blurring … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,329 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordLICENSE PLATE LOCALIZATION USING GABOR FILTERS AND NEURAL NETWORKSSami Ktata, Faouzi Benzarti, Hamid AmiriVehicle License Plate Detection (LPD) is an important step for the vehicle plate recognition which can be used in the intelligent transport systems. Many methods have been proposed for the detection of license plates based on: Mathematical morphology, Discrete Wavelet Transform, Hough Transform and others. In general, an LPR system includes four main parts: Vehicle image acquisition, license plate detection, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,977 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Novel Approach in Malignancy Detection of Computer Aided DiagnosisS. Meenalosini, J. Janet, E. KannanProblem statement: Breast cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases that cause innumerable fatal in the female society. Early detection is the only way to reduce the mortality. Due to variety of factors sometimes manual reading of mammogram results in misdiagnosis. So that the diagnosis rate varies from 65-85%. Various computer aided detection techniques have been proposed for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 May 2012 · 6,915 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEfficient Multimodal Biometric Authentication Using Fast Fingerprint Verification and Enhanced Iris FeaturesA. Jameer Basha, V. Palanisamy, T. PurusothamanProblem statement: The accuracy of biometric systems varies with the kind of biometric feature used in it. The Unmoral biometric system is prone to interclass variations. Approach: We implement Multimodal biometric systems to overcome the limitations by using multiple pieces of evidence of the same identity. However, the multimodal biometric system is limited to the time constraints due to its … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 7,619 accessesView PDF Cite
