The cotton recognition would become rather difficult during the application of the cotton harvesting robot (CHR) in the case where the cotton is sheltered or covered by other objects. In this paper, a novel approach of cotton detection based on the improved randomized Hough transform (IRHT) for this case is proposed. Based on the contour information from the boundary trace, the mathematic model-based IRHT is derived based on a modified circular detection technique. It yields a well agreement with the requirements of the precision and rating of CHR.

<p><span>The biometric system is based on human’s behavioral and physical characteristics. Among all of these, iris has unique structure, higher accuracy and it can remain stable over a person’s life. Iris recognition is the method by which system recognize a person by their unique identical feature found in the iris. Iris recognition technology includes four subsections as, capturing of the iris image, segmentation, extraction of the needed features and matching. This paper is a detail description of eyelids; eyelashes detection technique and Hough transform method applied on iris image. </span></p>

The detection of nystagmus using video oculography experiences accuracy problems when patients who complain of dizziness have difficulty in fully opening their eyes. Pupil detection and tracking in this condition affect the accuracy of the nystagmus waveform. In this research, we design a pupil detection method using a pattern matching approach that approximates the pupil using a Mexican hat-type ellipse pattern, in order to deal with the aforementioned problem. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method, in comparison with that of a conventional Hough transform method, for eye movement videos retrieved from Gifu University Hospital. The performance results show that the proposed method can detect and track the pupil position, even when only 20% of the pupil is visible. In comparison, the conventional Hough transform only indicates good performance when 90% of the pupil is visible. We also evaluate the proposed method using the Labelled Pupil in the Wild (LPW) data set. The results show that the proposed method has an accuracy of 1.47, as evaluated using the Mean Square Error (MSE), which is much lower than that of the conventional Hough transform method, with an MSE of 9.53. We conduct expert validation by consulting three medical specialists regarding the nystagmus waveform. The medical specialists agreed that the waveform can be evaluated clinically, without contradicting their diagnoses.

This paper makes some improvements on Roberts representation for straight line in space and proposes a coarse-to-fine three-dimensional (3D) Randomized Hough Transform (RHT) for the detection of dim targets. Using range, bearing and elevation information of the received echoes, 3D RHT can detect constant velocity target in space. In addition, this paper applies a coarse-to-fine strategy to the 3D RHT, which aims to solve both the computational and memory complexity problems. The validity of the coarse-to-fine 3D RHT is verified by simulations. In comparison with the 2D case, which only uses the range-bearing information, the coarse-to-fine 3D RHT has a better practical value in dim target detection.
