Human face image processing techniques have many applications, such as in security operations, entertainment, medical imaging and telecommunications. In this paper, we provide an overview of existing computer algorithms for face detection and facial feature location, face recognition, image compression and animation. We also discuss limitations of current methods and research work needed in the future.

Instagram is one of the famous and fast-growing media sharing platforms. Instagram allows users to share photos and videos with followers. There are plenty of ways to search for images on Instagram, but one of the most familiar ways is ’hashtag.’ Hashtag search enables the users to find the precise search result on Instagram. However, there are no rules for using the hashtag; that is why it often does not match the uploaded image, and for this reason, Users are unable to find the relevant search results. This research aims to filter any human face images on search results based on hashtags on Instagram. Our study extends the author’s [2] work by implementing image processing techniques that detect human faces and separate the identified images on search results based on hashtags using the face detection technique.

The economic growth of any country crucially depends on the mining activity of that country. The mining activities require huge land for the extraction of mineral from the earth. The recent government policy imposing the systematic mapping of the land use and land cover in and around the mines. In the present study, work, the analysis of land used and land covered was carried out at Malkapur limestone mines. This study discussed the brief mapping of the buffer zones buffer zones areas in by using digital image processing techniques. This research work demonstrated the changes happened in and around mines for the buffer radius of 1 km, 5 km and 10 km. In this study it was found that there were no significant changes observed in land use which intern implies that mining activities are not having any impact in land use changes. Further, in this study, not much variation was reported against the forest land and water bodies situated in and around the mines


Drusen identification is the fundamental operation in the automated diagnosis of eye diseases. Manual and automatic detection of the drusen in the retinal fundus images has been developed recently in the classical manner only. This work provides the quantum-based retinal drusen detection method using entropy-based image processing techniques. This algorithm is the composite system of two channels, classical and quantum channels for the preprocessing and drusen detection respectively. This research work has been evaluated with the databases of DRIVE, STARE, MESSIDOR, E-Optha-Ex and ONH-Hunter. This quantum-based approach will be analyzed with the results of the existing classical methods and proves its efficiency from the calculations of sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and execution time.

Image processing techniques are widely used for the detection and classification of diseases for various plants. The structure of the plant and appearance of the disease on the plant pose a challenge for image processing. This research implements SVM (Support Vector Machine) based image-processing approach to analyze and classify three of the rice crop diseases. The process consists of two phases, i.e. training phase and disease prediction phase. The approach identifies disease on the leaf using trained classifier. The proposed research work optimizes SVM parameters (gamma, nu) for maximum efficiency. The results show that the proposed approach achieved 94.16% accuracy with 5.83% misclassification rate, 91.6% recall rate and 90.9% precision. These findings were compared with image processing techniques discussed in review of literature. The results of comparison conclude that the proposed methodology yields high accuracy percentage as compared to the other techniques. The results obtained can help the development of an effective software solution by incorporating image processing and collaboration features. This may facilitate the farmers and other bodies in effective decision making to efficiently protect the rice crops from substantial damage. While considering the findings of this research, the presented technique may be considered as a potential solution for adding image processing techniques to KM (Knowledge Management) systems.

Digital image processing is the trending topic of research in recent time and big amount of research work related to Biometric features is done and currently it achieved good amount of accuracy. Biometric features is used for security, verification and recognition purpose. This paper is a showcase of how security systems can be developed by using biometric features of human like face, fingerprint and iris, etc. It can be used for the purpose of identification, recognition and Authentication and it is also applicable for making software for image preparation in bioscience laboratories that make use of scanned or digitally photographed images. The widespread use of such image processing techniques using photography and microscope imaging across the natural science with particular attention being paid to research in cell and molecular bioscience. This paper is a review of various methods trending to the field of biometric applications on biotechnologies.

This project presents a new approach for automatically tracking the human face as well as facial features (nose, mouth, eyes)in a clear way. This technique became required in various future visual communication applications, such as teleconferencing, Facial recognition systems, Biometrics and Human computer interface etc. The principle behind detecting the face feature is used to measure the respiration rate in the future as the nose represents the important region in the human face for breathing. Human face detection as elliptical area was investigated then image processing techniques were used to extract human face as elliptical area from the rest of image. Several techniques were applied to detect the nose inside the elliptical area as rectangle region and then the mouth and eyes regions were extracted inside the elliptical face area. A skin-color segmentation with image processing techniques played an important role in detecting the human face as elliptic area and then several techniques were used such as enhancement, thresholding, Morphological, edge detections as well as binarization techniques to achieve the aims of the suggested methods. Nose detection as a rectangle region was also investigated by looking for the longest vertical line in the elliptical area. The nose was detected and extracted as rectangle region. Detecting the mouth was achieved by looking for the longest horizontal line under the tip of the nose then thresholding this region to detect the lips of the mouth; by extracting the points of the lips corners we extracted the mouth as elliptical region. Finally, the eye regions were tracked in the upper part of ellipse above the tip of the nose and detected as rectangular regions. Further work is in progress to enhance these techniques to take place in real time images as well as apply them in the medical field.

This research work can identify the vehicle and classify the vehicle using the vehicle features such as shape, color etc., The parameters extracted from the vehicle classification are based on movement of the vehicle are classified as static, movement variation in the successive video frames are used to identify the hazardness of the vehicle. Digital Image processing techniques are used in the object detection. 


In this research work we have shown the methodology for converting printed Assamese numerals to its corresponding utterance. We have implemented as an initial effort which will read only four digit numerals. We are using Image processing techniques to convert an image of Assamese numerals into textual/digital form. In the second phase the numerals will be pronounced as a number by Google speaker. In this system, images are stored in a dataset and then inputted data is compared with the dataset image using template matching technique. After recognition of the text output will be displayed as a speech waveform. This work has many applications in today’s digital world
