Global gray-level thresholding techniques such as Otsu’s method, and local gray-level thresholding techniques such as adaptive thresholding method are powerful in extracting cha...
In this paper, we present an AUC (i.e., the Area Under the Curve of Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC)) maximization based learning algorithm to design the classifier for ma...
Object detection in clutter or occlusion is a hard problem in computer vision. We propose an object detection method based on contour grouping. Two stages are included: a novel di...
Abstract—Applications of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to solve image processing problem with a reference to a new automatic enhancement technique based on real-coded par...
This article presents an algorithm for the automatic detection of circular shapes from complicated and noisy images without using the conventional Hough transform methods. The prop...
