Considering Retinal image as textured image, its texture based segmentation is required to identify the presence of retinal diseases. This pre-processing is important in automatic detection system for recognizing the abnormality present in the retinal images. Likewise, the proposed system mainly...

Holistic word recognition attempts to recognize the entire word image as a single pattern. In general, it performs better than segmentation based word recognition model for known, fixed and small sized lexicon. The present work deals with recognition of handwritten words in Hindi in holistic...

The color image segmentation is a fundamental requirement for microscopic biopsy image analysis and disease detection. In this paper, a hybrid combination of color k-means and marker control watershed based segmentation approach is proposed to be applied for the segmentation of cell and nuclei...

Introduction and objective: Computer Aided Decision (CAD) systems based on Medical Imaging could support radiologists in grading Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by means of Computed Tomography (CT) images, thus avoiding medical invasive procedures such as biopsies. The identification and...

Despite the many advances in face recognition technology, practical face detection and matching for unconstrained images remain challenging. A real-world Face Image Retrieval (FIR) system is described in this paper. It is based on optimally weighted image descriptor ensemble utilized in...

In automated chest X-ray screening (to detect pulmonary abnormality: Tuberculosis (TB), for instance), the presence of foreign element such as buttons and medical devices hinders its performance. In this paper, using digital chest radiographs, the authors present a new technique to detect...

A novel method of colour texture analysis based on anisotropic diffusion for industrial applications is proposed and the performance analysis of colour texture descriptors is examined. The objective of the study is to explore different colour spaces for their suitability in automatic...

This paper introduces a novel feature selection model for supervised interval valued data based on interval K-Means clustering. The proposed model explores two kinds of feature selection through feature clustering viz., class independent feature selection and class dependent feature selection....

Document analysis research starves from the availability of public datasets. Without publicly available dataset, one cannot make fair comparison with the state-of-the-art methods. To bridge this gap, in this paper, the authors propose a word-level document image dataset of 13 different Indic...

Automated video surveillance presents a great amount of applications and one of them is traffic monitoring. Vehicle type detection can provide information about the characteristics of the traffic flow to human traffic controllers in order to facilitate their decision-making process. A video...
