Dynamic gameplay, fast-paced and fast-changing gameplay, where angle shooting (top and bottom corner) has the best chance of a good goal, are the main aspects of handball. When it comes to the narrow-angle area, the goalkeeper has trouble blocked the goal. Therefore, this research discusses image processing to investigate the shooting precision performance analysis to detect the ball's accuracy at high speed. In the handball goal, the participants had to complete 50 successful shots at each of the four target locations. Computer vision will then be implemented through a camera to identify the ball, followed by determining the accuracy of the ball position of floating, net tangle and farthest or smallest using object detection as the accuracy marker. The model will be trained using Deep Learning (DL)  models of YOLOv2, YOLOv3, and Faster R-CNN and the best precision models of ball detection accuracy were compared. It was found that the best performance of the accuracy of the classifier Faster R-CNN produces 99% for all ball positions.

The arena fragmentation test (AFT) is one of the tests used to design an effective warhead. Conventionally, complex and expensive measuring equipment is used for testing a warhead and measuring important factors such as the size, velocity, and the spatial distribution of fragments where the fragments penetrate steel target plates. In this paper, instead of using specific sensors and equipment, we proposed the use of a deep learning-based object detection algorithm to detect fragments in the AFT. To this end, we acquired many high-speed videos and built an AFT image dataset with bounding boxes of warhead fragments. Our method fine-tuned an existing object detection network named the Faster R-convolutional neural network (CNN) on this dataset with modification of the network’s anchor boxes. We also employed a novel temporal filtering method, which was demonstrated as an effective non-fragment filtering scheme in our recent previous image processing-based fragment detection approach, to capture only the first penetrating fragments from all detected fragments. We showed that the performance of the proposed method was comparable to that of a sensor-based system under the same experimental conditions. We also demonstrated that the use of deep learning technologies in the task of AFT significantly enhanced the performance via a quantitative comparison between our proposed method and our recent previous image processing-based method. In other words, our proposed method outperformed the previous image processing-based method. The proposed method produced outstanding results in terms of finding the exact fragment positions.

Abstract Background A computer algorithm that automatically detects sacroiliac joint abnormalities on plain radiograph would help radiologists avoid missing sacroiliitis. This study aimed to develop and validate a deep learning model to detect and diagnose sacroiliitis on plain radiograph in young patients with low back pain. Methods This Institutional Review Board-approved retrospective study included 478 and 468 plain radiographs from 241 and 433 young (< 40 years) patients who complained of low back pain with and without ankylosing spondylitis, respectively. They were randomly split into training and test datasets with a ratio of 8:2. Radiologists reviewed the images and labeled the coordinates of a bounding box and determined the presence or absence of sacroiliitis for each sacroiliac joint. We fine-tined and optimized the EfficientDet-D4 object detection model pre-trained on the COCO 2107 dataset on the training dataset and validated the final model on the test dataset. Results The mean average precision, an evaluation metric for object detection accuracy, was 0.918 at 0.5 intersection over union. In the diagnosis of sacroiliitis, the area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and F1-score were 0.932 (95% confidence interval, 0.903–0.961), 96.9% (92.9–99.0), 86.8% (81.5–90.9), 91.1% (87.7–93.7), and 90.2% (85.0–93.9), respectively. Conclusions The EfficientDet, a deep learning-based object detection algorithm, could be used to automatically diagnose sacroiliitis on plain radiograph.

Proposed in 1962, the Hough transform (HT) has been widely applied and investigated for detecting curves, shapes, and motions in the fields of image processing and computer vision. However, the HT has several shortcomings, including high computational cost, low detection accuracy, vulnerability to noise, and possibility of missing objects. Many efforts target at solving some of the problems for decades, while the key idea remains more or less the same. Proposed in 1989 and further developed thereafter, the Randomized Hough Transform (RHT) manages to considerably overcome these shortcomings via innovations on the fundamental mechanisms, with random sampling in place of pixel scanning, converging mapping in place of diverging mapping, and dynamic storage in place of accumulation array. This article will provides an overview on advances and applications of RHT in the past one and half decades.

Visual classification of commercial products is a branch of the wider fields of object detection and feature extraction in computer vision, and, in particular, it is an important step in the creative workflow in fashion industries. Automatically classifying garment features makes both designers and data experts aware of their overall production, which is fundamental in order to organize marketing campaigns, avoid duplicates, categorize apparel products for e-commerce purposes, and so on. There are many different techniques for visual classification, ranging from standard image processing to machine learning approaches: this work, made by using and testing the aforementioned approaches in collaboration with Adidas AG™, describes a real-world study aimed at automatically recognizing and classifying logos, stripes, colors, and other features of clothing, solely from final rendering images of their products. Specifically, both deep learning and image processing techniques, such as template matching, were used. The result is a novel system for image recognition and feature extraction that has a high classification accuracy and which is reliable and robust enough to be used by a company like Adidas. This paper shows the main problems and proposed solutions in the development of this system, and the experimental results on the Adidas AG™ dataset.

Detection and localization of regions of images that attract immediate human visual attention is currently an intensive area of research in computer vision. The capability of automatic identification and segmentation of such salient image regions has immediate consequences for applications in the field of computer vision, computer graphics, and multimedia. A large number of salient object detection (SOD) methods have been devised to effectively mimic the capability of the human visual system to detect the salient regions in images. These methods can be broadly categorized into two categories based on their feature engineering mechanism: conventional or deep learning-based. In this survey, most of the influential advances in image-based SOD from both conventional as well as deep learning-based categories have been reviewed in detail. Relevant saliency modeling trends with key issues, core techniques, and the scope for future research work have been discussed in the context of difficulties often faced in salient object detection. Results are presented for various challenging cases for some large-scale public datasets. Different metrics considered for assessment of the performance of state-of-the-art salient object detection models are also covered. Some future directions for SOD are presented towards end.

HighlightsCorn damage detection was possible using advanced deep learning and computer vision techniques trained with images of simulated corn lodging.RetinaNet and YOLOv2 both worked well at identifying regions of lodged corn.Automating crop damage identification could provide useful information to producers and other stakeholders from visual-band UAS imagery.Abstract. Severe weather events can cause large financial losses to farmers. Detailed information on the location and severity of damage will assist farmers, insurance companies, and disaster response agencies in making wise post-damage decisions. The goal of this study was a proof-of-concept to detect areas of damaged corn from aerial imagery using computer vision and deep learning techniques. A specific objective was to compare existing object detection algorithms to determine which is best suited for corn damage detection. Simulated corn lodging was used to create a training and analysis data set. An unmanned aerial system equipped with an RGB camera was used for image acquisition. Three popular object detectors (Faster R-CNN, YOLOv2, and RetinaNet) were assessed for their ability to detect damaged areas. Average precision (AP) was used to compare object detectors. RetinaNet and YOLOv2 demonstrated robust capability for corn damage identification, with AP ranging from 98.43% to 73.24% and from 97.0% to 55.99%, respectively, across all conditions. Faster R-CNN did not perform as well as the other two models, with AP between 77.29% and 14.47% for all conditions. Detecting corn damage at later growth stages was more difficult for all three object detectors. Keywords: Computer vision, Faster R-CNN, RetinaNet, Severe weather, Smart farming, YOLO.
