It combines techniques of fast construction of Euclidean Distance Maps(EDMs), ridge extraction, Hit-or-Miss Transformation(HMT) of structuring elements and the set operators. It first produces the EDM image with no more than 4 passes through an image of any kinds, and then the ridge image is extracted by applying a turn-on scheme and performing a rain-fall elimination to accelerate the processing. The one-pixel wide skeleton is finally acquired by carrying out the HMTs of two structure elements and the SUBTRACT and OR operations. Experimental results obtained by practical applications are also presented.展开更多

The system uses complementary-encoding hit-or-miss transform method to improve the performance of the standard correlator. According to this method, a compact optical system for human-face optical recognition is bult up. In the face library 200 photographs are stored and the recognition speed of the system is 10 frames per second. The accuracy of recognition is more than 90 percent. The system has good fault-tolerance ability for the pictures with rotation distortion, Gauss noise disturbance or information losing.展开更多
