scholarly journals Instance Segmentation on Real time Object Detection using Mask R-CNN

In the ever-advancing field of computer vision, image processing plays a prominent role. We can extend the applications of Image processing into solving real-world problems like substantially decreasing Human interaction over the art of driving. In the process of achieving this task, we face several challenges like Segmentation and Detection of objects. The proposed thesis overcomes the challenges effectively by introducing Instance segmentation and Binary masks along with Keras and Tensorflow. Instance segmentation is used to delineate and detect every unique object of interest according to their pixel characteristics in an image. Mask RCNN is the superior model over the existing CNN models and yields accurate detection of objects more efficiently. Unlike conventional Neural Networks which employs selective search algorithm to identify object of interest, Mask RCNN employs Regional Proposal Networks(RPN) to identify object of interest. For better results Image pre-processing techniques and morphological transformations are employed to reduce the noise and increase pixel clarity

No doubt that today's technology has approximately solved many common as well as complex issues. Engineers and researchers are always in the quest for the best, brief and efficient methods to cope up the real world problems, hence fruit grading and sorting are one of the problems in export/import industry. In this regard industry requires a station that can check the skin of fruit, i.e. an apple whether it has rotten spots on it or not beside this whole procedure this specific station will also check the radius of an apple for sorting it further for packaging process. This whole procedure will be followed by a running conveyor belt, 2 AC plungers and a wooden box in between them, which will have 5 Mega pixel camera mounted on it. The camera will be triggered by a brief algorithm of digital image processing designed on the platform of MATLAB R2015a version and conclude whether the fruit, i.e. an apple is healthy or having some rotten spots on its skin. Once results are shown, then the algorithm will activate the respective plunger for grading and sorting of apples.

Compliance with traffic signs is one of the most important things to follow to avoid traffic accidents as well as compliance with traffic rules in terms of parking, speed control, and other traffic sings. Progress in different areas, such as self-propelled car manufacturing or the production of devices that help the visually impaired, require values to find a way to determine traffic signals with high precision in this research, The first step is to take a picture of the traffic sign and apply some digital image processing techniques to increase image contrast and eliminate noise in the image, the second step resize of origin image  , the third step convert color to(YCbCr, HSB) or stay on RGB, the fourth step  image is disassembled using  curvelet  transform and get coefficients , and the last step using cuckoo search algorithm to recognition sings traffics ,the MATLAB (2011b) program was used to implement the proposed algorithm . After applying this method to a set of traffic the percentage of discrimination of traffic signs was yellow 93%, green 94%, blue 94.5%, red 96%.

Interest in digital image processing techniques dates back to the early 1920's, when digitized pictures of world news events were first transmitted by submarine cable between New York and London. Applications of digital image processing concepts, however, did not become widespread until the middle 1960's, when third-generation digital computers began to offer the speed and storage capabilities required for practical implementation of image processing algorithms. Since then, this area has experienced vigorous growth, having been a subject of interdisciplinary research in fields ranging from engineering and computer science to biology, chemistry, and medicine.

Many important supramolecular structures such as filaments, microtubules, virus capsids and certain membrane proteins and bacterial cell walls exist as ordered polymers or two-dimensional crystalline arrays in vivo. In several instances it has been possible to induce soluble proteins to form ordered polymers or two-dimensional crystalline arrays in vitro. In both cases a combination of electron microscopy of negatively stained specimens with analog or digital image processing techniques has proven extremely useful for elucidating the molecular and supramolecular organization of the constituent proteins. However from the reconstructed stain exclusion patterns it is often difficult to identify distinct stain excluding regions with specific protein subunits. To this end it has been demonstrated that in some cases this ambiguity can be resolved by a combination of stoichiometric labeling of the ordered structures with subunit-specific antibody fragments (e.g. Fab) and image processing of the electron micrographs recorded from labeled and unlabeled structures.

Rotaviruses are spherical, double-shelled particles. They have been identified as a major cause of infantile gastroenteritis worldwide. In our earlier studies we determined the three-dimensional structures of double-and single-shelled simian rotavirus embedded in vitreous ice using electron cryomicroscopy and image processing techniques to a resolution of 40Å. A distinctive feature of the rotavirus structure is the presence of 132 large channels spanning across both the shells at all 5- and 6-coordinated positions of a T=13ℓ icosahedral lattice. The outer shell has 60 spikes emanating from its relatively smooth surface. The inner shell, in contrast, exhibits a bristly surface made of 260 morphological units at all local and strict 3-fold axes (Fig.l).The outer shell of rotavirus is made up of two proteins, VP4 and VP7. VP7, a glycoprotein and a neutralization antigen, is the major component. VP4 has been implicated in several important functions such as cell penetration, hemagglutination, neutralization and virulence. From our earlier studies we had proposed that the spikes correspond to VP4 and the rest of the surface is composed of VP7. Our recent structural studies, using the same techniques, with monoclonal antibodies specific to VP4 have established that surface spikes are made up of VP4.

A brain tumor is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal brain tissue that can interfere with normal brain function. Although various methods have been developed for brain tumor classification, tumor detection and multiclass classification remain challenging due to the complex characteristics of the brain tumor. Brain tumor detection and classification are one of the most challenging and time-consuming tasks in the processing of medical images. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a visual imaging technique, which provides a information about the soft tissues of the human body, which helps identify the brain tumor. Proper diagnosis can prevent a patient's health to some extent. This paper presents a review of various detection and classification methods for brain tumor classification using image processing techniques.
