An interactive annotation tool for indexing Historical manuscripts
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)When a huge collection of digitized old manuscripts are obtained as a part of their preservation, an appropriate indexing technique is essential to search through them. In this paper, we have proposed a novel tool to assist ... -
Improved gait recognition based on gait energy images
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)The performance of gait recognition systems are usually affected by clothing, carrying conditions, and other intraclass variations which are also referred to as covariates. This paper proposes a supervised feature selection ... -
Memory footprint reduction for power-efficient realization of 2-D finite impulse response filters
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Article)We have analyzed memory footprint and combinational complexity to arrive at a systematic design strategy to derive area-delay-power-efficient architectures for two-dimensional (2-D) finite impulse response (FIR) filter. ... -
Automatic prediction of age, gender, and nationality in offline handwriting
( Hindawi Publishing Corporation , 2014 , Article)The classification of handwriting into different categories, such as age, gender, and nationality, has several applications. In forensics, handwriting classification helps investigators focus on a certain category of ... -
On the use of time-frequency features for detecting and classifying epileptic seizure activities in non-stationary EEG signals
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)This paper proposes new time-frequency features for detecting and classifying epileptic seizure activities in non-stationary EEG signals. These features are obtained by translating and combining the most relevant time-domain ... -
Off-line writer identification using multi-scale local binary patterns and SR-KDA
( IEEE , 2013 , Conference Paper)Writer identification is becoming an increasingly important research topic especially in forensic and biometric applications. This paper presents a novel method for performing offline write identification by using multi-scale ... -
ICDAR 2013 competition on handwriting stroke recovery from offline data
( IEEE , 2013 , Conference Paper)Stroke recovery from offline handwriting is a very interesting research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare ... -
ICDAR 2013 competition on gender prediction from handwriting
( IEEE , 2013 , Conference Paper)The prediction of gender from handwriting is a very interesting research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare ... -
Partial shoeprint retrieval using multiple point-of-interest detectors and SIFT descriptors
( IOS Press , 2015 , Article)Shoeprint evidence collected from crime scenes can play an important role in forensic investigations. Usually, the analysis of shoeprints is carried out manually and is based on human expertise and knowledge. As well as ... -
Combining Fisher locality preserving projections and passband DCT for efficient palmprint recognition
( Elsevier B.V. , 2015 , Article)In this paper a new graph based approach referred to as Fisher Locality Preserving Projections (FLPP) is proposed for efficient palmprint recognition. The technique employs two graphs with the first being used to characterize ... -
Time-frequency image descriptors-based features for EEG epileptic seizure activities detection and classification
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Conference Paper)This paper presents new class of time-frequency (T-F) features for automatic detection and classification of epileptic seizure activities in EEG signals. Most previous methods were based only on signal features derived ... -
Efficient segmentation of sub-words within handwritten arabic words
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)Segmentation is considered as a core step for any recognition or classification method and for the text within any document to be effectively recognized it must be segmented accurately. In this paper a text and writer ... -
Undecimated wavelet-based Bayesian denoising in mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise with application on medical and biological images
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Conference Paper)Due to photon and readout noise biomedical images are generally contaminated by a mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian image denoising methodology for images corrupted by a mixed Poisson-Gaussian ... -
Visualization of faces from surveillance videos via face hallucination
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2014 , Conference Paper)Face hallucination can be a useful tool for visualizing a low quality face into a visually better quality, making it an attractive technology for many applications. While faces in surveillance videos are usually at very ... -
FPGA Implementation of Orthogonal Matching Pursuit for Compressive Sensing Reconstruction
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Article)In this paper, we present a novel architecture based on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) for the reconstruction of compressively sensed signal using the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. We have analyzed ... -
Texture analysis for colorectal tumour biopsies using multispectral imagery
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Conference Paper)Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world. As part of its diagnosis, a histological analysis is often run on biopsy samples. Multispecral imagery taken from cancer tissues can be useful to capture ... -
