Plants are affected by numerous environmental factors that influence their physiological processes and productivity. Early revealing of their action based on measuring spectra of reflected light and calculating reflectance indices is an important stage in the protection of agricultural plants. Photochemical reflectance index (PRI) is a widely used parameter related to photosynthetic changes in plants under action of stressors. We developed a new system for proximal imaging of PRI based on using short pulses of measuring light detected simultaneously in green (530 nm) and yellow (570 nm) spectral bands. The system has several advances compared to those reported in literature. Active light illumination and subtraction of the ambient light allow for PRI measurements without periodic calibrations. Short duration of measuring pulses (18 ms) minimizes their influence on plants. Measurements in two spectral bands operated by separate cameras with aligned fields of visualization allow one to exclude mechanically switchable parts like filter wheels thus minimizing acquisition time and increasing durability of the setup. Absolute values of PRI and light-induced changes in PRI (ΔPRI) in pea leaves and changes of these parameters under action of light with different intensities, water shortage, and heating have been investigated using the developed setup. Changes in ΔPRI are shown to be more robust than the changes in the absolute value of PRI which is in a good agreement with our previous studies. Values of PRI and, especially, ΔPRI are strongly linearly related to the energy-dependent component of the non-photochemical quenching and can be potentially used for estimation of this component. Additionally, we demonstrate that the developed system can also measure fast changes in PRI (hundreds of milliseconds and seconds) under leaf illumination by the pulsed green-yellow measuring light. Thus, the developed system of proximal PRI imaging can be used for PRI measurements (including fast changes in PRI) and estimation of stressors-induced photosynthetic changes.
Abstract-The objective of this work is to provide a simple and yet efficient tool for human attributes like gender, age and ethnicity by the human facial image in the real time image as we all aware this term that "Real-Time frame rate is a vital factor for practical deployment of computer vision system". In this particular paper we are trying to presents the progress towards face detection and human attributes classification system. We have developed an algorithm for the classification of gender, age and race from human frontal facial image As the basis of the classifier proposed algorithm uses training set neuron receptors that process visual information a study of the several variants of these classifiers and shows the principal possibility of sex determination, assessment of a person's age on a scale (adultchildren) and recognition of race by using the neuron-like receptors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
