Nowadays, there is a global change in lifestyle that is moving more toward the use of e-services and smart devices which necessitate the verification of user identity. Different organizations have put into place a range of technologies, hardware, and/or software to authenticate users using fingerprints, iris recognition, and so forth. However, cost and reliability are significant limitations to the use of such technologies. This study presents a nonfiducial PPG-based subject authentication system. In particular, the photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal is first filtered into four signals using the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and then segmented into frames. Ten simple statistical features are extracted from the frame of each signal band to compose the feature vector. Augmenting the feature vector with the same features extracted from the 1st derivative of the corresponding signal is investigated, along with different fusion approaches. A support vector machine (SVM) classifier is then employed for the purpose of identity authentication. The proposed authentication system achieved an average authentication accuracy of 99.3% using a 15 sec frame length with the augmented multiband approach.

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are the life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias that require treatment in an emergency. Detection of VT and VF at an early stage is crucial for achieving the success of the defibrillation treatment. Hence an automatic system using computer-aided diagnosis tool is helpful in detecting the ventricular arrhythmias in electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. In this paper, a discrete wavelet transform (DWT) was used to denoise and decompose the ECG signals into different consecutive frequency bands to reduce noise. The methodology was tested using ECG data from standard CU ventricular tachyarrhythmia database (CUDB) and MIT-BIH malignant ventricular ectopy database (VFDB) datasets of PhysioNet databases. A set of time-frequency features consists of temporal, spectral, and statistical were extracted and ranked by the correlation attribute evaluation with ranker search method in order to improve the accuracy of detection. The ranked features were classified for VT and VF conditions using support vector machine (SVM) and decision tree (C4.5) classifier. The proposed DWT based features yielded the average sensitivity of 98%, specificity of 99.32%, and accuracy of 99.23% using a decision tree (C4.5) classifier. These results were better than the SVM classifier having an average accuracy of 92.43%. The obtained results prove that using DWT based time-frequency features with decision tree (C4.5) classifier can be one of the best choices for clinicians for precise detection of ventricular arrhythmias.

Differential Excitation

Copy-move forgery (CMF) is an established process to copy an image segment and pastes it within the same image to hide or duplicate a portion of the image. Several CMF detection techniques are available; however, better detection accuracy with low feature vector is always substantial. For this, differential excitation component (DEC) of Weber Law descriptor in combination with the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) approach of texture feature extraction for CMFD is proposed. GLCM Texture features are computed in four directions on DEC and this acts as a feature vector for support vector machine classifier. These texture features are more distinguishable and it is validated through other two proposed methods based on discrete wavelet transform-GLCM (DWT-GLCM) and GLCM. Experimentation is carried out on CoMoFoD and CASIA databases to validate the efficacy of proposed methods. Proposed methods exhibit resilience against many post-processing attacks. Comparative analysis with existing methods shows the superiority of the proposed method (DEC-GLCM) with regard to detection accuracy.

There is a strong correlation between the like/dislike responses to audio–visual stimuli and the emotional arousal and valence reactions of a person. In the present work, our attention is focused on the automated detection of dislike responses based on EEG activity when music videos are used as audio–visual stimuli. Specifically, we investigate the discriminative capacity of the Logarithmic Energy (LogE), Linear Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (LFCC), Power Spectral Density (PSD) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT)-based EEG features, computed with and without segmentation of the EEG signal, on the dislike detection task. We carried out a comparative evaluation with eighteen modifications of the above-mentioned EEG features that cover different frequency bands and use different energy decomposition methods and spectral resolutions. For that purpose, we made use of Naïve Bayes classifier (NB), Classification and regression trees (CART), k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) classifier, and support vector machines (SVM) classifier with a radial basis function (RBF) kernel trained with the Sequential Minimal Optimization (SMO) method. The experimental evaluation was performed on the well-known and widely used DEAP dataset. A classification accuracy of up to 98.6% was observed for the best performing combination of pre-processing, EEG features and classifier. These results support that the automated detection of like/dislike reactions based on EEG activity is feasible in a personalized setup. This opens opportunities for the incorporation of such functionality in entertainment, healthcare and security applications.

Epilepsy is a prevalent condition, mainly affecting the nervous system of the human body. Electroencephalogram (EEG) is used to evaluate and examine the seizures caused due to epilepsy. The issue of low precision and poor comprehensiveness is worked upon using dual tree- complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT), rather than discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Here, Logarithmic energy entropy (LogEn) and Shannon entropy (ShanEn) are taken as input features. These features are fed to Linear Support Vector Machine     (L-SVM) Classifier. For LogEn, accuracy of 100% for A-E, 99.34% for AB-E, and 98.67% for AC-E is achieved. While ShanEn combinations give accuracy of 96.67% for AB-E and 95.5% for ABC-E. These results showcase that our methodology is suitable for overcoming the problem and can become an alternate option for clinical diagnosis.

The purpose of this study is the statistical analysis and discrimination of maize seed using a machine vision (MV) approach. The foundation of the digital image dataset holds six maize seed varieties named as Kargal K-9803, Gujjar Khan, Desi White, Pioner 30Y87, Syngenta ST-6142, and Pioner 31R88. The digital image dataset acquired via a digital imaging laboratory. For preprocessing, we crop the image into a size of 600×600 pixels, and convert it into a gray level image format. After that, line and edge detection are performed by using a Prewitt filter, and five non-overlapping areas of interest (AOIs) size of (200×200), and (250×250) are drawn. A total of 56 statistical features, containing texture features, histogram features, and spectral features, is extracted from each AOI. The 11 optimized statistical features have been selected by deploying “Correlation-based Feature Selection” (CFS) with the Greedy algorithm. For the discrimination analysis, four MV classifiers named as “Support Vector Machine” (SVM), “Logistic” (Lg), “Bagging” (B), and “LogitBoost” (LB) have been deployed on optimized statistical features dataset. After analysis, the SVM classifier has shown a promising accuracy of 99.93% on AOIs size (250×250). The obtained accuracy by SVM classifier on six maize seed varieties, namely Kargal K-9803, Gujjar Khan, Desi White, Pioner 30Y87, Syngenta ST-6142, and Pioner 31R88, were 99.9%, 99.8%, 100%, 100%, 99.9%, and 99.8%, respectively.

Cad System

The Computer-Aided Diagnostic (CAD) system is an important tool that helps radiologists to provide a second opinion for the early detection of breast cancer and therefore, aids to reduce the mortality rates. In this work, we try to develop a new (CAD) system to classify mammograms into benign or malignant. The proposed system consists of three main steps. The preprocessing stage consists of noise filtering, elimination of unwanted objects and suppressing the pectoral muscle. The Seeded Region Growing (SRG) segmentation technique is applied in a triangular region that contains the pectoral muscle to localize it and extract the region of interest (ROI). The features extraction step is performed by applying the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) to each obtained ROI, and the most discriminating coefficients are selected using the discrimination power analysis (DPA) method. Finally, the classification is carried out by the support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural networks (ANN), random forest (RF) and Naive Bayes (NB) classifiers. The evaluation of the proposed system on the mini-MIAS database shows its effectiveness compared to other recently published CAD systems, and a classification accuracy of about 99.41% with the SVM classifier was obtained.

Core Description

Summary X-ray computerized tomography (CT) is a nondestructive method of providing information about the internal composition and structure of whole core reservoir samples. In this study we propose a method to classify lithology. The novelty of this method is that it uses statistical and textural information extracted from whole core CT images in a supervised learning environment. In the proposed approaches, first-order statistical features and textural grey-levelco-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features are extracted from whole core CT images. Here, two workflows are considered. In the first workflow, the extracted features are used to train a support vector machine (SVM) to classify lithofacies. In the second workflow, a principal component analysis (PCA) step is added before training with two purposes: first, to eliminate collinearity among the features and second, to investigate the amount of information needed to differentiate the analyzed images. Before extracting the statistical features, the images are preprocessed and decomposed using Haar mother wavelet decomposition schemes to enhance the texture and to acquire a set of detail images that are then used to compute the statistical features. The training data set includes lithological information obtained from core description. The approach is validated using the trained SVM and hybrid (PCA + SVM) classifiers to predict lithofacies in a set of unseen data. The obtained results show that the SVM classifier can predict some of the lithofacies with high accuracy (up to 91% recall), but it misclassifies, to some extent, similar lithofacies with similar grain size, texture, and transport properties. The SVM classifier captures the heterogeneity in the whole core CT images more accurately compared with the core description, indicating that the CT images provide additional high-resolution information not observed by manual core description. Further, the obtained prediction results add information on the similarity of the lithofacies classes. The prediction results using the hybrid classifier are worse than the SVM classifier, indicating that low-power components may contain information that is required to differentiate among various lithofacies.

This paper presents a novel wavelet and support vector machine (SVM) based method for hyperspectral image classification. A 1-D wavelet transform is applied to the pixel spectra, followed by feature extraction and SVM classification. Contrary to the traditional method of using pixel spectra with SVM classifier, our approach not only reduces the dimension of the input pixel feature vector but also improves the classification accuracy. Texture energy features computed in the spectral dimension are mapped using polynomial kernels and used for training the SVM classifier. Results with AVIRIS and other hyperspectral images for land cover and benthic habitat classification are presented. The accuracy of the method with limited training sets and computational burden is assessed.

Biometrics authentication is playing a vital role in providing security and privacy. This paper presents a contemporary approach for identifying an individual using unimodal biometrics. Finger vein based authentication system is a promising technology and now-a-days widely used because of its important features such as resistant to criminal tampering, high accuracy, ease of feature extraction and greater authentication speed. The feature vein patterns extracted by Contourlet transform decompose into directional sub bands in different orientations at various scales. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used for pattern matching. Thus the experimental results shows that our proposed method tested on two different databases of finger vein images improves recognition rate with high matching speed.
