Object recognition is one of the topics of artificial intelligence, computer vision, image processing and machine vision. The classical problem in these areas of computer science is that of determining object via characteristic features. Important feature of the object is its contour. Accurate reconstruction of contour points leads to possibility to compare the unknown object with models of specified objects. The key information about the object is the set of contour points which are treated as interpolation nodes. Classical interpolations (Lagrange or Newton polynomials) are useless for precise reconstruction of the contour. The chapter is dealing with proposed method of contour reconstruction via curves interpolation. First stage consists in computing the contour points of the object to be recognized. Then one can compare models of known objects, given by the sets of contour points, with coordinates of interpolated points of unknown object. Contour points reconstruction and curve interpolation is possible using new method of Hurwitz - Radon Matrices.

The image classification is a classical problem of image processing, computer vision and machine learning fields. In this paper we study the image classification using deep learning. We use AlexNet architecture with convolutional neural networks for this purpose. Four test images are selected from the ImageNet database for the classification purpose. We cropped the images for various portion areas and conducted experiments. The results show the effectiveness of deep learning based image classification using AlexNet.

In this chapter, the authors discuss a unique technology known as the Sixth Sense Technology, highlighting the future opportunities of such technology in integrating the digital world with the real world. Challenges in implementing such technologies are also discussed along with a review of the different possible implementation approaches. This review is performed by exploring the different inventions in areas similar to the Sixth Sense Technology, namely augmented reality (AR), computer vision, image processing, gesture recognition, and artificial intelligence and then categorizing and comparing between them. Lastly, recommendations are discussed for improving such a unique technology that has the potential to create a new trend in human-computer interaction (HCI) in the coming years.

Drone use has grown with the use of image processing and computer vision techniques, such as autonomous image navigation, mosaic generation, elevation modeling, 3D reconstruction, and object recognition. In all techniques, an important step is an extraction of features, such as methods of interest points. This work addresses the modes of application of interest points, such as BRISK, ORB, FREAK, AKAZE and LATCH with the parameters configured automatically using the optimization method for images with different textures. This process is one of the pieces of final software that selects the use of a meta heuristic the best parameters automatically according to an input image.

Image processing has become one of the most important branches of computer science, especially after entering into several areas of life such as medicine, engineering and various sciences. In our current research, we have developed a system of image recognition based on image characteristics and some content information using the most important artificial intelligence algorithms, a fuzzy logic algorithm, to obtain complete image information using small values ranging from 0 to 1. The program was executed on a set of standard database called the WANG database. It holds the contents of 1000 images from the Corel stock photo database, in JPEG format. The system was evaluated using the recall method. This method calculates the proportion of correct results identified by the system as correct results with correct result identified by the classic system.

Electronic Travel Aid systems are expected to make impaired persons able to perform their everyday tasks such as finding an object and avoiding obstacles easier. Among ETA devices, Camera Based ETA devices are the new one and with a high potential for helping Visually Impaired Persons. With recent advances in computer science and specially computer vision, Camera Based ETA devices used several computer vision algorithms and techniques such as object recognition and stereo vision in order to help VIP to perform tasks such as reading banknotes, recognizing people and avoiding obstacles. This paper analyses and appraises a number of literatures in this area with focus on stereo vision technique. Finally, after discussing about the methods and techniques used in different literatures, it is concluded that the stereo vision is the best technique for helping VIP in their everyday navigation.

Computer vision needs suitable methods of shape representation and contour reconstruction. One of them, invented by the author and called method of Hurwitz-Radon Matrices (MHR), can be used in representation and reconstruction of shapes of the objects in the plane. Proposed method is based on a family of Hurwitz-Radon (HR) matrices. The matrices are skew-symmetric and possess columns composed of orthogonal vectors. 2D shape is represented by the set of successive nodes. It is shown how to create the orthogonal and discrete OHR operator and how to use it in a process of shape representation and reconstruction. Contour of the object, represented by successive contour points, consists of information which allows us to describe many important features of the object as shape coefficients. 2D curve modeling is a basic subject in many branches of industry and computer science.

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Pet Robot is a culmination of multiple fields of computer science. This paper showcases the capabilities of our robot. Most of the functionalities stem from image processing made available through OpenCV. The functions of the robot discussed in this paper are face tracking, emotion recognition and a colour-based follow routine. Face tracking allows the robot to keep the face of the user constantly in the frame to allow capturing of facial data. Using this data, emotion recognition achieved an accuracy of 66% on the FER-2013 dataset. The colour-based follow routine enables the robot to follow the user as they walk based on the presence of a specific colour.
