Segment Orientation

This working paper shows the results of finished research, using image processing techniques to improve the fingerprint obtained from a database, where the image is normalized and segmented to get only the section of the image with the fingerprint. Then, the Gabor filter is applied, and it corrects defects in ridges and valleys, allowing continuity. That way, if the fingerprint has a physical defect, the filter can correct it as long as the segment orientation to be correct. Once improved, the fingerprint, it is binarized and thinned for minutiae extraction. The false minutiae are filtered and eliminated in order to ensure the operation of the algorithm. Finally, it is necessary training with the minutiae of all fingerprints in the database, to individually determine which user belongs the fingerprint entered. The system has a reliability of 81% of the process, with the pre-processing part being crucial to guarantee the correct extraction of the characteristics of fingerprints.

Frame Grabber

A BP neural networks is presented for billet character recognition. Firstly, by a series of image processing techniques, the character’feature in the billet character region of the video image gathered by frame grabber is abstracted. Secondly, the BP neural networks algorithm is employed for character recognition. Application results show that the image recognition based BP neural networks can performs well in billet character recognition, and the method presented is speedy, efficient and of high value in practice.

Processing Techniques

Vast reserves of information are found in ancient texts, scripts, stone tablets etc. However due to difficulty in creating new physical copies of such texts, knowledge to be obtained from them is limited to those few who have access to such resources. With the advent of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) efforts have been made to digitize such information. This increases their availability by making it easier to share, search and edit. Many documents are held back due to being damaged. This gives rise to an interesting problem of removing the noise from such documents so it becomes easier to apply OCR on them. Here the authors aim to develop a model that helps denoise images of such documents retaining on the text. The primary goal of their project is to help ease document digitization. They intend to study the effects of combining image processing techniques and neural networks. Image processing techniques like thresholding, filtering, edge detection, morphological operations, etc. will be applied to pre-process images to yield higher accuracy of neural network models.
