Facial Expression Classification using Multi-Scale Histogram of Oriented Gradients
Abstract: An automatic facial expression classification method, based on multiscale Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) features extracted from sub-facial image patches, is proposed in this paper. A number of multiclass Support Vector Machines (SVM) are designed using the multiscale HOG features for classifying six basic facial expressions for frontal face images. The proposed method, with a simple design and few training data, achieves descent classification accuracy at a very low computational …

A Simple and Fast Skull Stripping Technique for Brain MR Images
Abstract: Skull stripping is an important aspect of study in the field of Medical image processing. It eliminates the present non-cerebral tissues from the MR image to improve the speed and accuracy of the algorithm. An unsupervised double segmentation based method has been proposed for faster processing. Threshold values required for double segmentation are obtained using the Otsu algorithm. This method avoids the conventional Morphological Opening and Morphological Closing operations to …

Video Coding with Packed Stream in Image Processing and Applications
Abstract: Scalable video coding is a technique which allows a compressed video stream to be decoded in several different ways. This ability allows a user to adaptively recover a specific version of a video depending on its own requirements. Video sequences have temporal, spatial and quality scalabilities. In this work we introduce a novel fully scalable video codec. It is based on a motion-compensated temporal filtering (MCTF) of the video sequences …

Review Paper on Image Enhancement Using Various Methods
Abstract: Image enhancement methods were used to modify the images that were accepted as visual perception. Image enhancement methods mainly used for image contrast. Histogram compensation, used in the form of the cumulative distribution function (CDF), is one of the challenging factors in image processing. The goal of the enhancement is to improve the structural look of an image without impairing the input image. The enhancement techniques make it easier to …

Identifying Number Plates using Feature Extraction
Abstract: A number plate can be recognized completely only when the number plate on the vehicle is neither broken nor deliberately mutilated. This pose a hinderance in recognizing these types of plates. In order to overcome this problem, one has to either compare the characters recognized from the broken plate or directly compare the features of the given plate to the database. This helps in reducing time and space complexity. Various …
