It is well-known that biometrics are a powerful tool for reliable automated person identification. Automatic gait recognition is one of the newest of the emergent biometrics and has many advantages over other biometrics. The most notable advantage is that it does not require contact with the subjects nor does it require the subject to be near a camera. This work employs a gait recognition process with binary silhouette-based input images and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based classification in MATLAB. The performance of the recognition method depends significantly on the quality of the extracted binary silhouettes. In this work, a computationally low-cost fuzzy correlogram based method is employed for background subtraction. Even highly robust background subtraction and shadow elimination algorithms produce erroneous outputs at times with missing body portions, which consequently affect the recognition performance. Frame Difference Energy Image (FDEI) reconstruction is performed to alleviate the detrimental effect of improperly extracted silhouettes and to make the recognition method robust to partial incompleteness. Subsequently, features are extracted via two methods and fed to the BPNN (Back Propagation Neural Network based classifier which uses feature vector (exemplars) to compute similarity scores and carry out identification using weight vectors i.e. Frame-to-Exemplar-Distance (FED) vector. The FED uses the distance measure between pre-determined feature vectors and the weight vectors of the current frame as an identification criterion. The ANN performance is evaluated for recognition and speed parameters at different training gait angles.

Under the influence of COVID-19, the economic benefits of shale gas development are greatly affected. With the large-scale development and utilization of shale gas in China, it is increasingly important to assess the economic impact of shale gas development. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for predicting the production of shale gas reservoirs, and uses back propagation (BP) neural network to nonlinearly fit reservoir reconstruction data to obtain shale gas well production forecasting models. Experiments show that compared with the traditional BP neural network, the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy and stability of the prediction. There is a nonlinear correlation between reservoir reconstruction data and gas well production, which does not apply to traditional linear prediction methods

Background: In order to retrieve a particular image from vast repository of images, an efficient system is required and such an eminent system is well-known by the name Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. Color is indeed an important attribute of an image and the proposed system consist of a hybrid color descriptor which is used for color feature extraction. Deep learning, has gained a prominent importance in the current era. So, the performance of this fusion based color descriptor is also analyzed in the presence of Deep learning classifiers. Method: This paper describes a comparative experimental analysis on various color descriptors and the best two are chosen to form an efficient color based hybrid system denoted as combined color moment-color autocorrelogram (Co-CMCAC). Then, to increase the retrieval accuracy of the hybrid system, a Cascade forward back propagation neural network (CFBPNN) is used. The classification accuracy obtained by using CFBPNN is also compared to Patternnet neural network. Results: The results of the hybrid color descriptor depict that the proposed system has superior results of the order of 95.4%, 88.2%, 84.4% and 96.05% on Corel-1K, Corel-5K, Corel-10K and Oxford flower benchmark datasets respectively as compared to many state-of-the-art related techniques. Conclusion: This paper depict an experimental and analytical analysis on different color feature descriptors namely, Color moment (CM), Color auto-correlogram (CAC), Color histogram (CH), Color coherence vector (CCV) and Dominant color descriptor (DCD). The proposed hybrid color descriptor (Co-CMCAC) is utilized for the withdrawal of color features with Cascade forward back propagation neural network (CFBPNN) is used as a classifier on four benchmark datasets namely Corel-1K, Corel-5K and Corel-10K and Oxford flower.
