: Automatic licence plate recognition systems are used for various applications such as traffic monitoring, toll collection, car parking, law enforcement. In this paper, a convolutional neural network and support vector machine based automatic licence plate recognition system is proposed. Firstly, The characters extracts from the input image of vehicle. Then characters are segment and their features are extracts. The extracted features are classified using convolutional neural network and support vector machine for the final recognition of the licence plate. The obtained recognition rate by the hybridization of the convolutional neural network and the support vector machine is 96.5%. The recognition rate obtained for the proposed hybrid automatic licence plate system are compared with three other automatic licence plate systems based on neural network, support vector machine, and convolutional neural network. The proposed automatic licence plate recognition system perform better than the neural network, support vector machine, and convolutional nerural network based automatic licence plate recognition systems.

Traffic on Indian roads is growing day by day leading to accidents. The intelligent transport system is the solution to resolve the traffic problem on roads. One of the components of the intelligent transportation system is the monitoring of traffic by the automatic licence plate recognition system. In this chapter, a automatic licence plate recognition systems based on soft computing techniques is presented. Images of Indian vehicle licence plates are used as the dataset. Firstly, the licence plate region is extracted from the captured image, and thereafter, the characters are segmented. Then features are extracted from the segmented characters which are used for the recognition purpose. Furthermore, artificial neural network, support vector machine, and convolutional neural network are used and compared for the automatic licence plate recognition. The future scope is the hybrid technique solution to the problem.

This paper proposes a novel metal additive manufacturing process, which is a composition of gas tungsten arc (GTA) and droplet deposition manufacturing (DDM). Due to complex physical metallurgical processes involved, such as droplet impact, spreading, surface pre-melting, etc., defects, including lack of fusion, overflow and discontinuity of deposited layers always occur. To assure the quality of GTA-assisted DDM-ed parts, online monitoring based on visual sensing has been implemented. The current study also focuses on automated defect classification to avoid low efficiency and bias of manual recognition by the way of convolutional neural network-support vector machine (CNN-SVM). The best accuracy of 98.9%, with an execution time of about 12 milliseconds to handle an image, proved our model can be enough to use in real-time feedback control of the process.

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

Human gestures have been considered as one of the important human-computer interaction modes. With the fast development of wireless technology in urban Internet of Things (IoT) environment, Wi-Fi can not only provide the function of high-speed network communication but also has great development potential in the field of environmental perception. This paper proposes a gesture recognition system based on the channel state information (CSI) within the physical layer of Wi-Fi transmission. To solve the problems of noise interference and phase offset in the CSI, we adopt a model based on CSI quotient. Then, the amplitude and phase curves of CSI are smoothed using Savitzky-Golay filter, and the one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) is used to extract the gesture features. Then, the support vector machine (SVM) classifier is adopted to recognize the gestures. The experimental results have shown that our system can achieve a recognition rate of about 90% for three common gestures, including pushing forward, left stroke, and waving. Meanwhile, the effects of different human orientation and model parameters on the recognition results are analyzed as well.

This paper presents the application of Gaussian blur filters and Support Vector Machine (SVM) techniques for greeting recognition among the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria. Existing efforts have considered different recognition gestures. However, tribal greeting postures or gestures recognition for the Nigerian geographical space has not been studied before. Some cultural gestures are not correctly identified by people of the same tribe, not to mention other people from different tribes, thereby posing a challenge of misinterpretation of meaning. Also, some cultural gestures are unknown to most people outside a tribe, which could also hinder human interaction; hence there is a need to automate the recognition of Nigerian tribal greeting gestures. This work hence develops a Gaussian Blur – SVM based system capable of recognizing the Yoruba tribe greeting postures for men and women. Videos of individuals performing various greeting gestures were collected and processed into image frames. The images were resized and a Gaussian blur filter was used to remove noise from them. This research used a moment-based feature extraction algorithm to extract shape features that were passed as input to SVM. SVM is exploited and trained to perform the greeting gesture recognition task to recognize two Nigerian tribe greeting postures. To confirm the robustness of the system, 20%, 25% and 30% of the dataset acquired from the preprocessed images were used to test the system. A recognition rate of 94% could be achieved when SVM is used, as shown by the result which invariably proves that the proposed method is efficient.

: Absence seizure is a type of brain disorder in which subject get into sudden lapses in attention. Which means sudden change in brain stimulation. Most of this type of disorder is widely found in children’s (5-18 years). These Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are captured with long term monitoring system and are analyzed individually. In this paper, a Convolutional Neural Network to extract single channel EEG seizure features like Power, log sum of wavelet transform, cross correlation, and mean phase variance of each frame in a windows are extracted after pre-processing and classify them into normal or absence seizure class, is proposed as an empowerment of monitoring system by automatic detection of absence seizure. The training data is collected from the normal and absence seizure subjects in the form of Electroencephalogram. The objective is to perform automatic detection of absence seizure using single channel electroencephalogram signal as input. Here the data is used to train the proposed Convolutional Neural Network to extract and classify absence seizure. The Convolutional Neural Network consist of three layers 1] convolutional layer – which extract the features in the form of vector 2] Pooling layer – the dimensionality of output from convolutional layer is reduced and 3] Fully connected layer–the activation function called soft-max is used to find the probability distribution of output class. This paper goes through the automatic detection of absence seizure in detail and provide the comparative analysis of classification between Support Vector Machine and Convolutional Neural Network. The proposed approach outperforms the performance of Support Vector Machine by 80% in automatic detection of absence seizure and validated using confusion matrix.
