Machine learning plays an important role in computational intelligence and has been widely used in many engineering fields. Surface voids or bugholes frequently appearing on concrete surface after the casting process make the corresponding manual inspection time consuming, costly, labor intensive, and inconsistent. In order to make a better inspection of the concrete surface, automatic classification of concrete bugholes is needed. In this paper, a variable selection strategy is proposed for pursuing feature interpretability, together with an automatic ensemble classification designed for getting a better accuracy of the bughole classification. A texture feature deriving from the Gabor filter and gray-level run lengths is extracted in concrete surface images. Interpretable variables, which are also the components of the feature, are selected according to a presented cumulative voting strategy. An ensemble classifier with its base classifier automatically assigned is provided to detect whether a surface void exists in an image or not. Experimental results on 1000 image samples indicate the effectiveness of our method with a comparable prediction accuracy and model explicable.

<p>Computer vision and pattern recognition applications have been counted serious research trends in engineering technology and scientific research content. These applications such as texture image analysis and its texture feature extraction. Several studies have been done to obtain accurate results in image feature extraction and classifications, but most of the extraction and classification studies have some shortcomings. Thus, it is substantial to amend the accuracy of the classification via minify the dimension of feature sets. In this paper, presents a cluster-based feature selection approach to adopt more discriminative subset texture features based on three different texture image datasets. Multi-step are conducted to implement the proposed approach. These steps involve texture feature extraction via Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and Gabor filter. The second step is feature selection by using K-means clustering algorithm based on five feature evaluation metrics which are infogain, Gain ratio, oneR, ReliefF, and symmetric. Finally, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naive Bayes (NB) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers are used to evaluate the proposed classification performance and accuracy. Research achieved better classification accuracy and performance using KNN and NB classifiers that were 99.9554% for Kelberg dataset and 99.0625% for SVM in Brodatz-1 and Brodatz-2 datasets consecutively. Conduct a comparison to other studies to give a unified view of the quality of the results and identify the future research directions.</p>

This paper proposes a hardware/software (HW/SW) co-design of an automatic classification system of Khalas, Khunaizi, Fardh, Qash, Naghal, and Maan dates fruit varieties in Oman. Three artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are used for qualitative comparisons: artificial neural network (ANN), support vector machine (SVM), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN). The accuracy performance of all AI classifiers is characterized for multiple color, shape, size, and texture feature combinations and for different critical parameter settings of the classifiers. In total, 600 date samples (100 dates/variety) are selected and imaged each sample individually. The system starts with preprocessing and segmentation of the colored input images. A total of 19 features are extracted from each image for use in classification models. The ANN classifier is shown to outperform all other classifiers. 97.26% highest classification accuracy is achieved using a combination of 15 color and shape-size features.

Abstrak— Songket merupakan warisan budaya Indonesia yang  harus dijaga dan dilestarikan. Pelestarian songket dapat dilakukan dengan pendataan secara komputerisasi. Pendataan dapat dilakukan dengan pengenalan pola motif songket. Dalam pengenalan pola, ekstraksi fitur merupakan hal yang penting untuk mendapatkan informasi citra digital. Informasi dari hasil ekstraksi fitur digunakan dalam proses klasifikasi. Penelitian ini akan mengekstraksi fitur citra songket Aceh. Ekstraksi fitur tekstur menggunakan metode Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM).

Introduction: The analysis and interpretation of electron micrographs of cells and tissues, often requires the accurate extraction of structural networks, which either provide immediate 2D or 3D information, or from which the desired information can be inferred. The images of these structures contain lines and/or curves whose orientation, lengths, and intersections characterize the overall network.Some examples exist of studies that have been done in the analysis of networks of natural structures. In, Sebok and Roemer determine the complexity of nerve structures in an EM formed slide. Here the number of nodes that exist in the image describes how dense nerve fibers are in a particular region of the skin. Hildith proposes a network structural analysis algorithm for the automatic classification of chromosome spreads (type, relative size and orientation).

In earlier times fruits were sorted manually and it was very time consuming and laborious task. Human sorted the fruits of the basis of shape, size and color. Time taken by human to sort the fruits is very large therefore to reduce the time and to increase the accuracy, an automatic classification of fruits comes into existence.To improve this human inspection and reduce time required for fruit sorting an advance technique is developed that accepts information about fruits from their images, and is called as Image Processing Technique.
