COLOR AC-PDP ENHANCEMENT OF LOW LEVELS IMAGE QUALITY WITH DYNAMIC MODIFYING SUB-FIELDS CODE

Based on the "Grayscales average distribution" method which equally distributes the input gray levels to output gray levels, three improved methods named: "Reduce the gray range expressed by the less significant subfields", "Low levels preset" and "Modify the exponent of inverse-gamma function" are proposed in this paper. Using these methods, the inverse-gamma relation subfields code can be obtained easily which can improve the low level expressions of AC-PDP. And a program, "gray scales distribution validate program", which can enhance the expressions of the demanded gray levels range, is also proposed in this paper.

3D Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix Based Classification of Favor Benign and Borderline Types in Follicular Neoplasm Images

Since the efficiency of treatment of thyroid disorder depends on the risk of malignancy, indeterminate follicular neoplasm (FN) images should be classified. The diagnosis process has been done by visual interpretation of experienced pathologists. However, it is difficult to separate the favor benign from borderline types. Thus, this paper presents a classification approach based on 3D nuclei model to classify favor benign and borderline types of follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA) in cytological specimens. The proposed method utilized 3D gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) and random forest classifier. It was applied to 22 data sets of FN images. Furthermore, the use of 3D GLCM was compared with 2D GLCM to evaluate the classification results. From experimental results, the proposed system achieved 95.45% of the classification. The use of 3D GLCM was better than 2D GLCM according to the accuracy of classification. Consequently, the proposed method probably helps a pathologist as a prescreening tool.

Material microstructures analyzed by using gray level Co-occurrence matrices

The mechanical properties of materials greatly depend on the microstructure morphology. The quantitative characterization of material microstructures is essential for the performance prediction and hence the material design. At present,the quantitative characterization methods mainly rely on the microstructure characterization of shape, size, distribution,and volume fraction, which related to the mechanical properties. These traditional methods have been applied for several decades and the subjectivity of human factors induces unavoidable errors. In this paper, we try to bypass the traditional operations and identify the relationship between the microstructures and the material properties by the texture of image itself directly. The statistical approach is based on gray level Co-occurrence matrix（GLCM）, allowing an objective and repeatable study on material microstructures. We first present how to identify GLCM with the optimal parameters, and then apply the method on three systems with different microstructures. The results show that GLCM can reveal the interface information and microstructures complexity with less human impact. Naturally, there is a good correlation between GLCM and the mechanical properties.

Hybrid Color Texture Features Classification Through ANN for Melanoma

Melanoma is of the lethal and rare types of skin cancer.It is curable at an initial stage and the patient can survive easily.It is very difficult to screen all skin lesion patients due to costly treatment.Clinicians are requiring a correct method for the right treatment for dermoscopic clinical features such as lesion borders,pigment networks,and the color of melanoma.These challenges are required an automated system to classify the clinical features of melanoma and non-melanoma disease.The trained clinicians can overcome the issues such as low contrast,lesions varying in size,color,and the existence of several objects like hair,reflections,air bubbles,and oils on almost all images.Active contour is one of the suitable methods with some drawbacks for the segmentation of irre-gular shapes.An entropy and morphology-based automated mask selection is pro-posed for the active contour method.The proposed method can improve the overall segmentation along with the boundary of melanoma images.In this study,features have been extracted to perform the classification on different texture scales like Gray level co-occurrence matrix(GLCM)and Local binary pattern(LBP).When four different moments pull out in six different color spaces like HSV,Lin RGB,YIQ,YCbCr,XYZ,and CIE L*a*b then global information from different colors channels have been combined.Therefore,hybrid fused texture features;such as local,color feature as global,shape features,and Artificial neural network(ANN)as classifiers have been proposed for the categorization of the malignant and non-malignant.Experimentations had been carried out on datasets Dermis,DermQuest,and PH2.The results of our advanced method showed super-iority and contrast with the existing state-of-the-art techniques.

An Improved Deep Structure for Accurately Brain Tumor Recognition

Brain neoplasms are recognized with a biopsy,which is not commonly done before decisive brain surgery.By using Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs)and textural features,the process of diagnosing brain tumors by radiologists would be a noninvasive procedure.This paper proposes a features fusion model that can distinguish between no tumor and brain tumor types via a novel deep learning structure.The proposed model extracts Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)textural features from MRI brain tumor images.Moreover,a deep neural network(DNN)model has been proposed to select the most salient features from the GLCM.Moreover,it manipulates the extraction of the additional high levels of salient features from a proposed CNN model.Finally,a fusion process has been utilized between these two types of features to form the input layer of additional proposed DNN model which is responsible for the recognition process.Two common datasets have been applied and tested,Br35H and FigShare datasets.The first dataset contains binary labels,while the second one splits the brain tumor into four classes;glioma,meningioma,pituitary,and no cancer.Moreover,several performance metrics have been evaluated from both datasets,including,accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,F-score,and training time.Experimental results show that the proposed methodology has achieved superior performance compared with the current state of art studies.The proposed system has achieved about 98.22%accuracy value in the case of the Br35H dataset however,an accuracy of 98.01%has been achieved in the case of the FigShare dataset.

Coal–rock interface detection on the basis of image texture features

Based on the stability and inequality of texture features between coal and rock,this study used the digital image analysis technique to propose a coal–rock interface detection method.By using gray level co-occurrence matrix,twenty-two texture features were extracted from the images of coal and rock.Data dimension of the feature space reduced to four by feature selection,which was according to a separability criterion based on inter-class mean difference and within-class scatter.The experimental results show that the optimized features were effective in improving the separability of the samples and reducing the time complexity of the algorithm.In the optimized low-dimensional feature space,the coal–rock classifer was set up using the fsher discriminant method.Using the 10-fold cross-validation technique,the performance of the classifer was evaluated,and an average recognition rate of 94.12%was obtained.The results of comparative experiments show that the identifcation performance of the proposed method was superior to the texture description method based on gray histogram and gradient histogram.

Remote Sensing Image Classification Algorithm Based on Texture Feature and Extreme Learning Machine

With the development of satellite technology,the satellite imagery of the earth’s surface and the whole surface makes it possible to survey surface resources and master the dynamic changes of the earth with high efficiency and low consumption.As an important tool for satellite remote sensing image processing,remote sensing image classification has become a hot topic.According to the natural texture characteristics of remote sensing images,this paper combines different texture features with the Extreme Learning Machine,and proposes a new remote sensing image classification algorithm.The experimental tests are carried out through the standard test dataset SAT-4 and SAT-6.Our results show that the proposed method is a simpler and more efficient remote sensing image classification algorithm.It also achieves 99.434%recognition accuracy on SAT-4,which is 1.5%higher than the 97.95%accuracy achieved by DeepSat.At the same time,the recognition accuracy of SAT-6 reaches 99.5728%,which is 5.6%higher than DeepSat’s 93.9%.

A seismic texture coherence algorithm and its application

The first generation coherence algorithm （the C1 algorithm） that calculates the coherence of seismic data in-line and cross-line was developed using statistical cross-correlation theory, and it has the limitation that the technique can only be applied to horizons. Based on the texture technique, the texture coherence algorithm uses seismic information in different directions and differences among multiple traces. It can not only calculate seismic coherence in in-line and cross-line directions but also in all other directions. In this study, we suggested first an optimization method and a criterion for constructing the gray level co-occurrence matrix of the seismic texture coherence algorithm. Then the co-occurrence matrix was prepared to evaluate differences among multiple traces. Compared with the C1 algorithm, the seismic texture coherence algorithm suggested in this paper is better than the C1 in its information extraction and application. Furthermore, it implements the multi-direction information fusion and it, also has the advantage of simplicity and effectiveness, and improves the resolution of the seismic profile. Application of the method to field data shows that the texture coherence attribute is superior to that of C 1 and that it has merits in identification of faults and channels.

An Efficient Deep Learning-based Content-based Image Retrieval Framework

The use of massive image databases has increased drastically over the few years due to evolution of multimedia technology.Image retrieval has become one of the vital tools in image processing applications.Content-Based Image Retrieval(CBIR)has been widely used in varied applications.But,the results produced by the usage of a single image feature are not satisfactory.So,multiple image features are used very often for attaining better results.But,fast and effective searching for relevant images from a database becomes a challenging task.In the previous existing system,the CBIR has used the combined feature extraction technique using color auto-correlogram,Rotation-Invariant Uniform Local Binary Patterns(RULBP)and local energy.However,the existing system does not provide significant results in terms of recall and precision.Also,the computational complexity is higher for the existing CBIR systems.In order to handle the above mentioned issues,the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)with Deep Learning based Enhanced Convolution Neural Network(DLECNN)is proposed in this work.The proposed system framework includes noise reduction using histogram equalization,feature extraction using GLCM,similarity matching computation using Hierarchal and Fuzzy c-Means(HFCM)algorithm and the image retrieval using DLECNN algorithm.The histogram equalization has been used for computing the image enhancement.This enhanced image has a uniform histogram.Then,the GLCM method has been used to extract the features such as shape,texture,colour,annotations and keywords.The HFCM similarity measure is used for computing the query image vector's similarity index with every database images.For enhancing the performance of this image retrieval approach,the DLECNN algorithm is proposed to retrieve more accurate features of the image.The proposed GLCM+DLECNN algorithm provides better results associated with high accuracy,precision,recall,f-measure and lesser complexity.From the experimental results,it is clearly observed that the proposed system provides efficient image retrieval for the given query image.

Fuzzy-Rough Feature Selection for Mammogram Classification

Feature selection（FS） refers to the process of selecting those input attributes that are most predictive of a given outcome. Unlike other dimensionality reduction methods,feature selectors preserve the original meaning of the features after reduction. The benefits of FS are twofold：it considerably decreases the running time of the induction algorithm,and increases the accuracy of the resulting model. This paper analyses the FS process in mammogram classification using fuzzy logic and rough set theory. Rough set and fuzzy logic based Quickreduct algorithms are applied for the FS from the features extracted using gray level co-occurence matrix（GLCM） constructed over the mammogram region. The predictive accuracy of the features is tested using NaiveBayes,Ripper,C4.5,and ant-miner algorithms. The results show that the ant-miner produces significant result comparing with others and the number of features selected using fuzzy-rough quick reduct algorithm is minimum,too.
