Recent times witnessed many advancements in the field of biometric and ultimodal biometric fields. This is typically observed in the area, of security, privacy, and forensics. Even for the best of unimodal biometric systems, it is often not possible to achieve a higher recognition rate. Multimodal biometric systems overcome various limitations of unimodal biometric systems, such as nonuniversality, lower false acceptance, and higher genuine acceptance rates. More reliable recognition performance is achievable as multiple pieces of evidence of the same identity are available. The work presented in this paper is focused on multimodal biometric system using fingerprint and iris. Distinct textual features of the iris and fingerprint are extracted using the Haar wavelet-based technique. A novel feature level fusion algorithm is developed to combine these unimodal features using the Mahalanobis distance technique. A support-vector-machine-based learning algorithm is used to train the system using the feature extracted. The performance of the proposed algorithms is validated and compared with other algorithms using the CASIA iris database and real fingerprint database. From the simulation results, it is evident that our algorithm has higher recognition rate and very less false rejection rate compared to existing approaches.

The Face

<p>In this paper an attempt has been made to detect the face using the combination of integral image along with the cascade structured classifier which is built using Adaboost learning algorithm. The detected faces are then passed through a filtering process for discarding the non face regions. They are individually split up into five segments consisting of forehead, eyes, nose, mouth and chin. Each segment is considered as a separate image and Eigenface also called principal component analysis (PCA) features of each segment is computed. The faces having a slight pose are also aligned for proper segmentation. The test image is also segmented similarly and its PCA features are found. The segmental Euclidean distance classifier is used for matching the test image with the stored one. The success rate comes out to be 88 per cent on the CG(full) database created from the databases of California Institute and Georgia Institute. However the performance of this approach on ORL(full) database with the same features is only 70 per cent. For the sake of comparison, DCT(full) and fuzzy features are tried on CG and ORL databases but using a well known classifier, support vector machine (SVM). Results of recognition rate with DCT features on SVM classifier are increased by 3 per cent over those due to PCA features and Euclidean distance classifier on the CG database. The results of recognition are improved to 96 per cent with fuzzy features on ORL database with SVM.</p><p><strong>Defence Science Journal, 2011, 61(5), pp.431-442</strong><strong><strong>, DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.14429/dsj.61.1178</strong></strong></p>

Aimed at the problem of low accuracy rate for face recognition and speaker recognition in noisy environment, a multi-biometric model fusing face features and speech features is presented by combining Normalization and SVM theory based on the research of feature level fusion. Face features and speech features are first extracted by pulse coupled neural network and VQ-SVM respectively. Then the distance between tested people and template people is calculated after getting the fused feature on the feature level fusion. In order to reduce the computational cost and improve the recognition performance, matching distance is normalized and finally recognized by SVM. Experiment on the ORL database show that even when the signal to noise ratio is declined, recognition rate of the fused system is clearly higher than the single system under noisy environment and the purpose of identity recognition is achieved.

Due to its portability, convenience, and low cost, incompletely closed near-infrared (ICNIR) imaging equipment (mixed light reflection imaging) is used for ultra thin sensor modules and have good application prospects. However, equipment with incompletely closed structure also brings some problems. Some finger vein images are not clear and there are sparse or even missing veins, which results in poor recognition performance. For these poor quality ICNIR images, however, there is additional fingerprint information in the image. The analysis of ICNIR images reveals that the fingerprint and finger vein in a single ICNIR image can be enhanced and separated. We propose a feature-level fusion recognition algorithm using a single ICNIR finger image. Firstly, we propose contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) and grayscale normalization to enhance fingerprint and finger vein texture, respectively. Then we propose an adaptive radius local binary pattern (ADLBP) feature combined with uniform pattern to extract the features of fingerprint and finger vein. It solves the problem that traditional local binary pattern (LBP) is unable to describe the texture features of different sizes in ICNIR images. Finally, we fuse the feature vectors of ADLBP block histogram for a fingerprint and finger vein, and realize feature-layer fusion recognition by a threshold decision support vector machine (T-SVM). The experimentation results showed that the performance of the proposed algorithm was noticeably better than that of the single model recognition algorithm.

This paper proposes a new feature extraction method for off-line recognition of Myanmar printed documents. One of the most important factors to achieve high recognition performance in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system is the selection of the feature extraction methods. Different types of existing OCR systems used various feature extraction methods because of the diversity of the scripts’ natures. One major contribution of the work in this paper is the design of logically rigorous coding based features. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, this paper assumed the documents are successfully segmented into characters and extracted features from these isolated Myanmar characters. These features are extracted using structural analysis of the Myanmar scripts. The experimental results have been carried out using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and compare the pervious proposed feature extraction method.

Persian handwritten digit recognition is one of the important topics of image processing which significantly considered by researchers due to its many applications. The most important challenges in Persian handwritten digit recognition is the existence of various patterns in Persian digit writing that makes the feature extraction step to be more complicated.Since the handcraft feature extraction methods are complicated processes and their performance level are not stable, most of the recent studies have concentrated on proposing a suitable method for automatic feature extraction. In this paper, an automatic method based on machine learning is proposed for high-level feature extraction from Persian digit images by using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). After that, a non-linear multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used for data classification instead of fully connected layer in final layer of CNN. The proposed method has been applied to HODA dataset and obtained 99.56% of recognition rate. Experimental results are comparable with previous state-of-the-art methods

Condition monitoring system monitors the system degradation and it identifies common failure modes. Several sensor signals are available for monitoring the changes in system components. Vibration signal is one of the most extensively used technique for monitoring rotating components as it identifies faults before the system fails. Early fault detection is the significant factor for condition monitoring, where Acoustic Emission ( AE ) sensor signals have been applied for early fault detection due to their high sensitivity and high frequency. In this paper, vibration and acoustic emission signals are acquired under various simulated gear and bearing fault conditions from the synchromesh gearbox. Then the statistical features are extracted from vibration and AE signals and then the prominent features are selected using J48 decision tree algorithm respectively. The best features from the vibration and AE signals are then fused using feature-level fusion strategy and it is classified using Support Vector Machine ( SVM ) and Proximal Support Vector Machine ( PSVM ) classifiers and it is compared with individual signals for fault diagnosis of the synchromesh gearbox. From the experiments, it is observed that the performance of the fault diagnosis system has been improved for the proposed feature level fusion technique compared to the performance of unfused vibration and AE feature sets.

Comparison Results

Automatic detection and recognition of traffic signs from images is an important topic in many applications. At first, we segmented the images using a classification algorithm to delineate the areas where the signs are more likely to be found. In this regard, shadows, objects having similar colours, and extreme illumination changes can significantly affect the segmentation results. We propose a new shape-based algorithm to improve the accuracy of the segmentation. The algorithm works by incorporating the sign geometry to filter out the wrong pixels from the classification results. We performed several tests to compare the performance of our algorithm against those obtained by popular techniques such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Means, and K-Nearest Neighbours. In these tests, to overcome the unwanted illumination effects, the images are transformed into colour spaces Hue, Saturation, and Intensity, YUV, normalized red green blue, and Gaussian. Among the traditional techniques used in this study, the best results were obtained with SVM applied to the images transformed into the Gaussian colour space. The comparison results also suggested that by adding the geometric constraints proposed in this study, the quality of sign image segmentation is improved by 10%–25%. We also comparted the SVM classifier enhanced by incorporating the geometry of signs with a U-Shaped deep learning algorithm. Results suggested the performance of both techniques is very close. Perhaps the deep learning results could be improved if a more comprehensive data set is provided.

With the increasing demand for information security and security regulations all over the world, biometric recognition technology has been widely used in our everyday life. In this regard, multimodal biometrics technology has gained interest and became popular due to its ability to overcome a number of significant limitations of unimodal biometric systems. In this paper, a new multimodal biometric human identification system is proposed, which is based on a deep learning algorithm for recognizing humans using biometric modalities of iris, face, and finger vein. The structure of the system is based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) which extract features and classify images by softmax classifier. To develop the system, three CNN models were combined; one for iris, one for face, and one for finger vein. In order to build the CNN model, the famous pertained model VGG-16 was used, the Adam optimization method was applied and categorical cross-entropy was used as a loss function. Some techniques to avoid overfitting were applied, such as image augmentation and dropout techniques. For fusing the CNN models, different fusion approaches were employed to explore the influence of fusion approaches on recognition performance, therefore, feature and score level fusion approaches were applied. The performance of the proposed system was empirically evaluated by conducting several experiments on the SDUMLA-HMT dataset, which is a multimodal biometrics dataset. The obtained results demonstrated that using three biometric traits in biometric identification systems obtained better results than using two or one biometric traits. The results also showed that our approach comfortably outperformed other state-of-the-art methods by achieving an accuracy of 99.39%, with a feature level fusion approach and an accuracy of 100% with different methods of score level fusion.

System logs can record the system status and important events during system operation in detail. Detecting anomalies in the system logs is a common method for modern large-scale distributed systems. Yet threshold-based classification models used for anomaly detection output only two values: normal or abnormal, which lacks probability of estimating whether the prediction results are correct. In this paper, a statistical learning algorithm Venn-Abers predictor is adopted to evaluate the confidence of prediction results in the field of system log anomaly detection. It is able to calculate the probability distribution of labels for a set of samples and provide a quality assessment of predictive labels to some extent. Two Venn-Abers predictors LR-VA and SVM-VA have been implemented based on Logistic Regression and Support Vector Machine, respectively. Then, the differences among different algorithms are considered so as to build a multimodel fusion algorithm by Stacking. And then a Venn-Abers predictor based on the Stacking algorithm called Stacking-VA is implemented. The performances of four types of algorithms (unimodel, Venn-Abers predictor based on unimodel, multimodel, and Venn-Abers predictor based on multimodel) are compared in terms of validity and accuracy. Experiments are carried out on a log dataset of the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). For the comparative experiments on unimodels, the results show that the validities of LR-VA and SVM-VA are better than those of the two corresponding underlying models. Compared with the underlying model, the accuracy of the SVM-VA predictor is better than that of LR-VA predictor, and more significantly, the recall rate increases from 81% to 94%. In the case of experiments on multiple models, the algorithm based on Stacking multimodel fusion is significantly superior to the underlying classifier. The average accuracy of Stacking-VA is larger than 0.95, which is more stable than the prediction results of LR-VA and SVM-VA. Experimental results show that the Venn-Abers predictor is a flexible tool that can make accurate and valid probability predictions in the field of system log anomaly detection.
