Mobile implementation is a current trend in biometric design. This paper proposes a new approach to palm print recognition, in which smart phones are used to capture palm print images at a distance. A touchless system was developed because of public demand for privacy and sanitation. Robust hand tracking, image enhancement, and fast computation processing algorithms are required for effective touchless and mobile-based recognition. In this project, hand tracking and the region of interest (ROI) extraction method were discussed. A sliding neighborhood operation with local histogram equalization, followed by a local adaptive thresholding or LHEAT approach, was proposed in the image enhancement stage to manage low-quality palm print images. To accelerate the recognition process, a new classifier, improved fuzzy-basedknearest centroid neighbor (IFkNCN), was implemented. By removing outliers and reducing the amount of training data, this classifier exhibited faster computation. Our experimental results demonstrate that a touchless palm print system using LHEAT and IFkNCN achieves a promising recognition rate of 98.64%.

Biometrics is a technology for recognition under which Palm vein recognition stems. They are of crucial importance in various applications of high sensitivity. This article develops a palm vein recognition model, based on derived pattern and feature vectors. All the palm print images used in this work were obtained from CASIA Multi-Spectral Palmprint Image Database V1.0 (CASIA database). First, a Region of Interest (ROI) was identified and extracted from the palm print images. Next, Histogram Equalization was used to enhance the area of the palm print image in the Region of Interest. The enhanced image obtained was subjected to the Zhang Suen's Thinning Algorithm to extract appropriate features in the palm print images needed for authentication. The features derived based on this vascular pattern thinning algorithm which are then compared and evaluated to carry out ‘matching'. The Pattern Matching itself was done using the Euclidean Distance for subsequent matching. The model was designed using UML, and implemented with C# and MS SQL on Microsoft Visual Studio platform. The developed system was evaluated based on False Acceptance, False Rejection and Equal Error Rate (EER) values obtained from the system. The results of testing and evaluation show that the developed system has achieved high recognition accuracy.

<p><span>Continuous speech segmentation and its  recognition is playing important role in natural language processing. Continuous context based Kannada speech segmentation depends  on context, grammer and semantics rules present in the kannada language. The significant feature extraction of kannada speech signal  for recognition system is quite exciting for researchers. In this paper proposed method  is  divided into two parts. First part of the method is continuous kannada speech signal segmentation with respect to the context based is carried out  by computing  average short term energy and its spectral centroid coefficients of  the speech signal present in the specified window. The segmented outputs are completely  meaningful  segmentation  for different scenarios with less segmentation error. The second part of the method is speech recognition by extracting less number Mel frequency cepstral coefficients with less  number of codebooks  using vector quantization .In this recognition is completely based on threshold value.This threshold setting is a challenging task however the simple method is used to achieve better recognition rate.The experimental results shows more efficient  and effective segmentation    with high recognition rate for any continuous context based kannada speech signal with different accents for male and female than the existing methods and also used minimal feature dimensions for training data.</span></p>

In the present study, we sought to enable instant tracking of the hand region as a region of interest (ROI) within the image range of a webcam, while also identifying specific hand gestures to facilitate the control of home appliances in smart homes or issuing of commands to human-computer interaction fields. To accomplish this objective, we first applied skin color detection and noise processing to remove unnecessary background information from the captured image, before applying background subtraction for detection of the ROI. Then, to prevent background objects or noise from influencing the ROI, we utilized the kernelized correlation filters (KCF) algorithm to implement tracking of the detected ROI. Next, the size of the ROI image was resized to 100×120 and input into a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to enable the identification of various hand gestures. In the present study, two deep CNN architectures modified from the AlexNet CNN and VGGNet CNN, respectively, were developed by substantially reducing the number of network parameters used and appropriately adjusting internal network configuration settings. Then, the tracking and recognition process described above was continuously repeated to achieve immediate effect, with the execution of the system continuing until the hand is removed from the camera range. The results indicated excellent performance by both of the proposed deep CNN architectures. In particular, the modified version of the VGGNet CNN achieved better performance with a recognition rate of 99.90% for the utilized training data set and a recognition rate of 95.61% for the utilized test data set, which indicate the good feasibility of the system for practical applications.

<p>This paper investigates various approaches for automated inspection of gluing process using shape-based matching application. A new supervised defect detection approach to detect a class of defects in gluing application is proposed. Creating of region of interest in important region of object is discussed. Gaussian smoothing features is proposed in determining better image processing. Template matching in differentiates between reference and tested image are proposed. This scheme provides high computational savings and results in high defect detection recognition rate. The defects are broadly classified into three classes: 1) gap defect; 2) bumper defect; 3) bubble defect. This system does lessen execution time, yet additionally produce high precision in deformity location rate. It is discovered that the proposed framework can give precision at 95.77% recognition rate in recognizing imperfection for gluing application.</p>

Abstract This paper proposes an efficient and accurate method of two-dimensional code recognition for industrial actual projects, and develops a high-speed and batch two-dimensional code recognition system based on machine vision. Firstly, according to the position of the QR code in the target subspace, a method to locate the region of interest of each QR code by using geometric relationship and batch processing QR code is proposed. On this basis, Gaussian noise is added to simulate the possible noise in production practice, and the anti-noise ability of the system is evaluated. Finally, the relationship between system recognition rate and QR code movement speed is analyzed and the experimental results are compared. The experimental results show that the system can meet the requirement of real-time online detection.

Abstract — Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is a technology that uses machines to process and recognize human voice. One way to increase recognition rate is to use a model of language you want to recognize. In this paper, a speech recognition application is introduced to recognize words "atas" (up), "bawah" (down), "kanan" (right), and "kiri" (left). This research used 400 samples of speech data, 75 samples from each word for training data and 25 samples for each word for test data. This speech recognition system was designed using Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) as many as 13 coefficients as features and Support Vector Machine (SVM) as identifiers. The system was tested with linear kernels and RBF, various cost values, and three sample sizes (n = 25, 75, 50). The best average accuracy value was obtained from SVM using linear kernels, a cost value of 100 and a data set consisted of 75 samples from each class. During the training phase, the system showed a f1-score (trade-off value between precision and recall) of 80% for the word "atas", 86% for the word "bawah", 81% for the word "kanan", and 100% for the word "kiri". Whereas by using 25 new samples per class for system testing phase, the f1-score was 76% for the "atas" class, 54% for the "bawah" class, 44% for the "kanan" class, and 100% for the "kiri" class.

Learning vector quantization (LVQ) network and back-propagation (BP) network are constructed easily making use of MATLAB toolbox on the basis of maintaining the recognition rate. Face images are randomly selected from images set as training data of LVQ network and BP network. LVQ algorithm and BP algorithm are used to train network. The automatic recognition of face orientation is realized when the system obtains convergence network. First, all images are processed by edge detection. Then feature vectors representing position of the eye were extracted from edge detected images. Feature vectors of training set are sent to network to adjust the parameters which ensures the convergence speed and performance of the network. Experimental results show that the constructed LVQ network and BP network can judge face orientation according to feature vectors of input images. Generally, the recognition rate of LVQ network is higher than that of BP network. The LVQ network and BP network are both feasible and effective for face orientation recognition to some extent. The advantage of this work is that the recognition system is efficient and easy to promote. This paper focuses on how to use MATLAB easily to design identification network rather than the complexity of identification system. The future research will focus on the stability and robustness of recognition network.

Multimodal biometric systems have been widely used to achieve high recognition accuracy. This paper presents a new multimodal biometric system using intelligent technique to authenticate human by fusion of finger and dorsal hand veins pattern. We developed an image analysis technique to extract region of interest (ROI) from finger and dorsal hand veins image. After extracting ROI we design a sequence of preprocessing steps to improve finger and dorsal hand veins images using Median filter, Wiener filter and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) to enhance vein image. Our smart technique is based on the following intelligent algorithms, namely; principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm for feature extraction and k-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) classifier for matching operation. The database chosen was the Shandong University Machine Learning and Applications - Homologous Multi-modal Traits (SDUMLA-HMT) and Bosphorus Hand Vein Database. The achieved result for the fusion of both biometric traits was Correct Recognition Rate (CRR) is 96.8%.
