低质量汉字的分块搜索两级识别法

由于汉字笔画复杂,从视频中提取的汉字图像质量往往较差,采用传统光学字符识别(OCR)的结果不理想.为了解决低质量汉字图像的识别问题,提出一种基于分块搜索的两级识别方法.首先建立汉字图像的分块结构并模仿低质量汉字生成训练集,然后对训练集中各分块图像应用主成分分析提取特征并建立索引.待识别图像应用分块搜索和投票的方式从索引中获取候选汉字集合(一级识别),再根据投票结果的显著性辅以全局结构特征匹配识别汉字(二级识别).实验结果证明,该方法对于低质量汉字图像比普通的OCR方法具有更高的识别率.     

Visual quality recognition of nonwovens using generalized Gaussian density model and robust Bayesian neural network

This work is dedicated to develop an algorithm for the visual quality recognition of nonwoven materials, in which image analysis and neural network are involved in feature extraction and pattern recognition stage, respectively. During the feature extraction stage, each image is decomposed into four levels using the 9-7 bi-orthogonal wavelet base. Then the wavelet coefficients in each subband are independently modeled by the generalized Gaussian density (GGD) model to calculate the scale and shape parameters with maximum likelihood (ML) estimator as texture features. While for the recognition stage, the robust Bayesian neural network is employed to classify the 625 nonwoven samples into five visual quality grades, i.e., 125 samples for each grade. Finally, we carry out the outlier detection of the training set using the outlier probability and select the most suitable model structure and parameters from 40 Bayesian neural networks using the Occam's razor. When 18 relevant textural features are extracted for each sample based on the GGD model, the average recognition accuracy of the test set arranges from 88% to 98.4% according to the different number of the hidden neurons in the Bayesian neural network.

Multiperson interaction recognition in images: A body keypoint based feature image analysis

Most interaction recognition approaches have been limited to single‐person action classification in videos. However, for still images where motion information is not available, the task becomes more complex. Aiming to this point, we propose an approach for multiperson human interaction recognition in images with keypoint‐based feature image analysis. Proposed method is a three‐stage framework. In the first stage, we propose feature‐based neural network (FCNN) for action recognition trained with feature images. Feature images are body features, that is, effective distances between a set of body part pairs and angular relation between body part triplets, rearranged in 2D gray‐scale image to learn effective representation of complex actions. In the later stage, we propose a voting‐based method for direction encoding to anticipate probable motion in steady images. Finally, our multiperson interaction recognition algorithm identifies which human pairs are interacting with each other using an interaction parameter. We evaluate our approach on two real‐world data sets, that is, UT‐interaction and SBU kinect interaction. The empirical experiments show that results are better than the state‐of‐the‐art methods with recognition accuracy of 95.83% on UT‐I set 1, 92.5% on UT‐I set 2, and 94.28% on SBU clean data set.

目前非重叠字符的识别技术已趋于完善,但难以识别建筑工程图纸标注等场景中的重叠字符,阻碍了基于二维扫描图纸的自动建模技术的突破。针对传统字符识别方法无法识别重叠字符的现状,提出了一套基于自适应尺度边缘特征的建筑施工图重叠字符识别新方法。基于像素空间分布特征初步确定重叠字符区域,定义并提取字符的自适应尺度边缘特征;借助双变量匹配概率函数筛选“位置+内容”的结果组合,并以全局最优原则代替绝对阈值作为识别标准,最终输出正确的识别结果。不同于先修复后识别的常规思路,该方法将特征匹配与干扰过滤相结合、字符定位与字符识别相关联,能解决百度等成熟商用OCR无法解决的重叠字符识别问题,且经数据实验证实具备较高的识别准确率。

Invariant 2D object recognition using KRA and GRA

Computer vision has been extensively adopted in industry for the last two decades. It enhances productivity and quality management, and is flexibility, efficient, fast, inexpensive, reliable and robust. This study presents a new translation, rotation and scaling-free object recognition method for 2D objects. The proposed method comprises two parts: KRA feature extractor and GRA classifier. The KRA feature extractor employs K-curvature, re-sampling, and autocorrelation transformation to extract unique features of objects, and then gray relational analysis (GRA) classifies the extracted invariant features. The boundary of the digital object was first represented as the form of the K-curvature over a given region of support, and was then re-sampled and transformed with autocorrelation function. After that, the extracted features own the unique property that is invariant to translation, rotation and scaling. To verify and validate the proposed method, 50 synthetic and 50 real objects were digitized as standard patterns, and 10 extra images of each object (test images) which were taken at different positions, orientations and scales, were acquired and compared with the standard patterns. The experimental results reveal that the proposed method with either GRA or MD methods is effective and reliable for part recognition.     

Rotation, scale and translation invariant handwritten Devanagari numeral character recognition using general fuzzy neural network

In this paper a general fuzzy hyperline segment neural network is proposed [P.M. Patil, Pattern classification and clustering using fuzzy neural networks, Ph.D. Thesis, SRTMU, Nanded, India, January 2003]. It combines supervised and unsupervised learning in a single algorithm so that it can be used for pure classification, pure clustering and hybrid classification/clustering. The method is applied to handwritten Devanagari numeral character recognition and also to the Fisher Iris database. High recognition rates are achieved with less training and recall time per pattern. The algorithm is rotation, scale and translation invariant. The recognition rate with ring data features is found to be 99.5%.     

A Neural-Network-Based Approach to Optical Symbol Recognition

In this paper we propose a neural-network-based approach to solving optical symbol recognition problems, from node head recognition to handwritten digit recognition. We demonstrated that node heads could be easily recognized by using a set of fuzzy rules extracted from the parameters of trained neural networks. For handwritten digit recognition we demonstrated that only 12 features are sufficient to achieve a high recognition rate. Several databases were tested to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed recognition method. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A hybrid method for robust car plate character recognition

Image-based car plate recognition is an indispensable part of an intelligent traffic system. The quality of the images taken for car plates, especially for Chinese car plates, however, may sometimes be very poor, due to the operating conditions and distortion because of poor photographical environments. Furthermore, there exist some “similar” characters, such as “8” and “B”, “7” and “T” and so on. They are less distinguishable because of noises and/or distortions. To achieve robust and high recognition performance, in this paper, a two-stage hybrid recognition system combining statistical and structural recognition methods is proposed. Car plate images are skew corrected and normalized before recognition. In the first stage, four statistical sub-classifiers recognize the input character independently, and the recognition results are combined using the Bayes method. If the output of the first stage contains characters that belong to prescribed sets of similarity characters, structure recognition method is used to further classify these character images: they are preprocessed once more, structure features are obtained from them and these structure features are fed into a decision tree classifier. Finally, genetic algorithm is employed to achieve optimum system parameters. Experiments show that our recognition system is very efficient and robust. As part of an intelligent traffic system, the system has been in successful commercial use.
