Pulse Coupled Neural Network (PCNN) is claimed as a third generation neural network. PCNN has wide purpose in image processing  such as segmentation, feature extraction, sharpening etc.  Not like another neural network architecture, PCNN do not need training. The only weaknes point  of PCNN is parameter tune due to  seven parameters in its five equations. In this research we proposed a novel method for segmentation based on modified PCNN.  In order to evaluate the proposed method, we processed L Band Multipolarisation  Synthetic Apperture Radar Image. The Results showed all area extracted both by using PCNN and ICM-PCNN from the SAR image are match to the groundtruth. There fore the proposed method is work properly.Copyright © 2017  International Journal of  Artificial Intelegence Research.All rights reserved.

Unlike most Western countries, which have a Latin-derived base alphabet, Japan has two syllabic alphabets called Hiragana and Katakana, and a Chinese alphabet, called Kanji. The vast differences in the writing of these Eastern alphabets to Western alphabets, Western alphabet-based OCR algorithms tend not to efficiently detect Japanese characters. This work contributes to a methodology applying digital image processing techniques, such as color range-based segmentation, edge detection and mathematical morphology techniques, to detect Japanese traffic informationalplates correctly the perspective and segment the characters contained in it. A convolutional neural network wasused to perform the classification of Hiragana characters contained in the segmented plates, withaccuracyof 94.37%.
