Abstract:This paper proposes a detection and classification method of recessive weakness in Superbuck converter through wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) and principal component analysis (PCA) combined with probabilistic neural network (PNN). The Superbuck converter presents excellent performance in many applications and is also faced with today’s demands, such as higher reliability and steadier operation. In this paper, the detection and classification issue to recessive weakness is settled. Firstly, the performance … Show more
In this paper, we resolve the challenging obstacle of detecting pedestrians with the ubiquity of irregularities in scale, rotation, and the illumination of the natural scene images natively. Pedestrian instances with such obstacles exhibit significantly unique characteristics. Thus, it strongly influences the performance of pedestrian detection techniques. We propose the new robust Scale Illumination Rotation and Affine invariant Mask R-CNN (SIRA M-RCNN) framework for overcoming the predecessor’s difficulties. The first phase of the proposed system deals with illumination variation by histogram analysis. Further, we use the contourlet transformation, and the directional filter bank for the generation of the rotational invariant features. Finally, we use Affine Scale Invariant Feature Transform (ASIFT) to find points that are translation and scale-invariant. Extensive evaluation of the benchmark database will prove the effectiveness of SIRA M-RCNN. The experimental results achieve state-of-the-art performance and show a significant performance improvement in pedestrian detection.

“…Classification of patterns is an important area of research and practical applications in a variety of fields including biology [1], psychology [2], medicine [3], electronics [4], marketing [5], military affairs [6], etc. In the past several decades, a wide variety of approaches has been developed towards this task [7].…”
The k-nearest neighbor (kNN) rule is one of the most popular classification algorithms applied in many fields because it is very simple to understand and easy to design. However, one of the major problems encountered in using the kNN rule is that all of the training samples are considered equally important in the assignment of the class label to the query pattern. In this paper, an evidential editing version of the kNN rule is developed within the framework of belief function theory. The proposal is composed of two procedures. An evidential editing procedure is first proposed to reassign the original training samples with new labels represented by an evidential membership structure, which provides a general representation model regarding the class membership of the training samples. After editing, a classification procedure specifically designed for evidently edited training samples is developed in the belief function framework to handle the more general situation in which the edited training samples are assigned dependent evidential labels. Three synthetic datasets and six real datasets collected from various fields were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The reported results show that the proposal achieves better performance than other considered kNN-based methods, especially for datasets with high imprecision ratios.
Pedestrian detection is a challenging and active research area in computer vision. Recognizing pedestrians helps in various utility applications such as event detection in overcrowded areas, gender, and gait classification, etc. In this domain, the most recent research is based on instance segmentation using Mask R-CNN. Most of the pedestrian detection method uses a feature of different body portions for identifying a person. This feature-based approach is not efficient enough to differentiate pedestrians in real-time, where the background changing. In this paper, a combined approach of scale-invariant feature map generation for detecting a small pedestrian and Mask R-CNN has been proposed for multiple pedestrian detection to overcome this drawback. The new database was created by recording the behavior of the student at the prominent places of the engineering institute. This database is comparatively new for pedestrian detection in the academic environment. The proposed Scale-invariant Mask R-CNN has been tested on the newly created database and has been compared with the pedestrian benchmark databases. The experimental result shows significant performance improvement in pedestrian detection as compared to the existing approaches of pedestrian detection and instance segmentation. Finally, we conclude and investigate the directions for future research.
