Abstract Commercial databases containing images of tire tread patterns are currently used by product designers, forensic specialists and product application personnel to identify whether a given tread pattern matches an existing tire. Currently, this pattern matching process is almost entirely manual, requiring visual searches of extensive libraries of tire tread patterns. Our work explores a first step toward automating this pattern matching process by building on feature analysis techniques from computer vision and image processing to develop a new method for extracting and classifying features from tire tread patterns and automatically locating candidate matches from a database of existing tread pattern images. Our method begins with a selection of tire tread images obtained from multiple sources (including manufacturers' literature, Web site images, and Tire Guides, Inc.), which are preprocessed and normalized using Two-Dimensional Fast Fourier Transforms (2D-FFT). The results of this preprocessing are feature-rich images that are further analyzed using feature extraction algorithms drawn from research in computer vision. A new, feature extraction algorithm is developed based on the geometry of the 2D-FFT images of the tire. The resulting FFT-based analysis allows independent classification of the tire images along two dimensions, specifically by separating “rib” and “lug” features of the tread pattern. Dimensionality of (0,0) indicates a smooth treaded tire with no pattern; dimensionality of (1,0) and (0,1) are purely rib and lug tires; and dimensionality of (1,1) is an all-season pattern. This analysis technique allows a candidate tire to be classified according to the features of its tread pattern, and other tires with similar features and tread pattern classifications can be automatically retrieved from the database.

Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder that causes repeated breathing interruption during sleep. The performance of automated apnea detection methods based on respiratory signals depend on the signals considered and feature extraction methods. Moreover, feature engineering techniques are highly dependent on the experts’ experience and their prior knowledge about different physiological signals and conditions of the subjects. To overcome these problems, a novel deep recurrent neural network (RNN) framework is developed for automated feature extraction and detection of apnea events from single respiratory channel inputs. Long short-term memory (LSTM) and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) are investigated to develop the proposed deep RNN model. The proposed framework is evaluated over three respiration signals: Oronasal thermal airflow (FlowTh), nasal pressure (NPRE), and abdominal respiratory inductance plethysmography (ABD). To demonstrate our results, we use polysomnography (PSG) data of 17 patients with obstructive, central, and mixed apnea events. Our results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed framework in automatic extraction for temporal features and automated detection of apneic events over the different respiratory signals considered in this study. Using a deep BiLSTM-based detection model, the NPRE signal achieved the highest overall detection results with true positive rate (sensitivity) = 90.3%, true negative rate (specificity) = 83.7%, and area under receiver operator characteristic curve = 92.4%. The present results contribute a new deep learning approach for automated detection of sleep apnea events from single channel respiration signals that can potentially serve as a helpful and alternative tool for the traditional PSG method.

Age estimation has been paid great attention in the field of intelligent surveillance, face recognition, biometrics, etc. In contrast to other facial variations, aging variation presents several unique characteristics, which make age estimation very challenging. The overall process of age estimation is performed using three important steps. In the first step, the pre-processing is performed from the input image based on Viola-Jones algorithm to detect the face region. In the second step, feature extraction is done based on three important features such as local transform directional pattern (LTDP), active appearance model (AAM), and the new feature, deep appearance model (Deep AM). After feature extraction, the classification is carried out based on the extracted features using deep belief network (DBN), where the DBN classifier is trained optimally using the proposed learning algorithm named as crow-sine cosine algorithm (CS).

Identifying communication signals under low SNR environment has become more difficult due to the increasingly complex communication environment. Most relevant literatures revolve around signal recognition under stable SNR, but not applicable under time-varying SNR environment. To solve this problem, we propose a new feature extraction method based on entropy cloud characteristics of communication modulation signals. The proposed algorithm extracts the Shannon entropy and index entropy characteristics of the signals first and then effectively combines the entropy theory and cloud model theory together. Compared with traditional feature extraction methods, instability distribution characteristics of the signals’ entropy characteristics can be further extracted from cloud model’s digital characteristics under low SNR environment by the proposed algorithm, which improves the signals’ recognition effects significantly. The results from the numerical simulations show that entropy cloud feature extraction algorithm can achieve better signal recognition effects, and even when the SNR is −11 dB, the signal recognition rate can still reach 100%.

Abstract Most of the studies in the field of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) based on electroencephalography have a wide range of applications. Extracting Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) is regarded as one of the most useful tools in BCI systems. In this study, different methods such as feature extraction with different spectral methods (Shannon entropy, skewness, kurtosis, mean, variance) (bank of filters, narrow-bank IIR filters, and wavelet transform magnitude), feature selection performed by various methods (decision tree, principle component analysis (PCA), t-test, Wilcoxon, Receiver operating characteristic (ROC)), and classification step applying k nearest neighbor (k-NN), perceptron, support vector machines (SVM), Bayesian, multiple layer perceptron (MLP) were compared from the whole stream of signal processing. Through combining such methods, the effective overview of the study indicated the accuracy of classical methods. In addition, the present study relied on a rather new feature selection described by decision tree and PCA, which is used for the BCI-SSVEP systems. Finally, the obtained accuracies were calculated based on the four recorded frequencies representing four directions including right, left, up, and down.
