Although volumetric coherence is the most widely used geometric attribute, accurate estimates of volumetric dip are in some ways more important. Coherence, amplitude gradients, and gray-level co-occurrence matrix textures should be computed along structural dip. Curvature and aberrancy are computed from volumetric estimates of structural dip. Because of both differences in resolution and sensitivity to coherent noise, different frequency components may exhibit different dip. In recent years, improvements in coherence have been noticed where covariance matrices of individual spectral components are summed rather than summing the original broadband data. We extend the same concepts to compute multispectral dip estimates by using a gradient structure tensor algorithm. The results are sharper, less smeared images on the dip components. The higher-resolution dip estimates result in higher-resolution curvature and aberrancy estimates. Availability of sharper estimates of dip to guide coherence attribute results in more continuous, less noisy discontinuities.

In conventional block compressed sensing (BCS), the images are divided into small fixed-size blocks sampled at the same sub-rate. The sparsities and high-frequency components of the images are ignored, and the reconstruction qualities of the complex texture images are poor. An adaptive multiscale variant of the block compressed sensing was proposed to reconstruct the texture details of the images. The texture features of the images were obtained from the high-frequency components by the three-level wavelet transform and analyzed on the basis of the gray level co-occurrence matrix. A mathematical model was established to adjust the block sizes of the images automatically and allocate the limited sampling resource adaptively. The smoothed projected Landweber (SPL) was utilized to reconstruct the images. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm was verified by the simulation experiments. Results demonstrate that the texture details of the reconstructed images are abundant. The image edges are also clear, and the blocking artifacts are effectively eliminated. The reconstruction qualities of images, especially the partial images, are considerably improved at different sub-sampling rates. The proposed algorithm achieves a 2.42–3.3 dB gain in reconstruction PSNR for the Barbara image over the original BCS-SPL at a sub-sampling rate of 0.3. No remarkable differences are noted between the reconstructed and original texture blocks in visual sensation. The proposed algorithm provides evidence for the compression and reconstruction of the images with complex texture details.

Background: In the past decades, handwritten character recognition has received considerable attention from researchers across the globe because of its wide range of applications in daily life. From the literature, it has been observed that there is limited study on various handwritten Indian scripts and Odia is one of them. We revised some of the patents relating to handwritten character recognition. Methods: This paper deals with the development of an automatic recognition system for offline handwritten Odia character recognition. In this case, prior to feature extraction from images, preprocessing has been done on the character images. For feature extraction, first the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) is computed from all the sub-bands of two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform (2D DWT) and thereafter, feature descriptors such as energy, entropy, correlation, homogeneity, and contrast are calculated from GLCMs which are termed as the primary feature vector. In order to further reduce the feature space and generate more relevant features, principal component analysis (PCA) has been employed. Because of the several salient features of random forest (RF) and K- nearest neighbor (K-NN), they have become a significant choice in pattern classification tasks and therefore, both RF and K-NN are separately applied in this study for segregation of character images. Results: All the experiments were performed on a system having specification as windows 8, 64-bit operating system, and Intel (R) i7 – 4770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz. Simulations were conducted through Matlab2014a on a standard database named as NIT Rourkela Odia Database. Conclusion: The proposed system has been validated on a standard database. The simulation results based on 10-fold cross-validation scenario demonstrate that the proposed system earns better accuracy than the existing methods while requiring least number of features. The recognition rate using RF and K-NN classifier is found to be 94.6% and 96.4% respectively.

Gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) analysis is a contemporary and innovative computational method for the assessment of textural patterns, applicable in almost any area of microscopy. The aim of our research was to perform the GLCM analysis of cell nuclei in Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast cells after the induction of sublethal cell damage with ethyl alcohol, and to evaluate the performance of various machine learning (ML) models regarding their ability to separate damaged from intact cells. For each cell nucleus, five GLCM parameters were calculated: angular second moment, inverse difference moment, GLCM contrast, GLCM correlation, and textural variance. Based on the obtained GLCM data, we applied three ML approaches: neural network, random trees, and binomial logistic regression. Statistically significant differences in GLCM features were observed between treated and untreated cells. The multilayer perceptron neural network had the highest classification accuracy. The model also showed a relatively high level of sensitivity and specificity, as well as an excellent discriminatory power in the separation of treated from untreated cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that it is possible to create a relatively sensitive GLCM-based ML model for the detection of alcohol-induced damage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell nuclei.

The irregular fracture surface of cortical bone, which is caused by complex multilevel micro-nanostructure, reflects the mechanical properties and fracture mechanisms. It is of great significance to characterize some characteristic parameters from the fracture surfaces of bone. In this research, anisotropic fracture mechanical properties of bovine femoral cortical bone along transverse, longitudinal and radial direction are firstly obtained by three-point bend experiment. Then the fracture routes and fracture surfaces are observed by scanning electron microscope. The observation shows that the formed fracture surfaces, which are caused by different crack routes, are extremely rough and have complex textures. Lastly, the combined method of fractal and gray level co-occurrence matrix are adopted to describe the morphology of fracture surface of cortical bone objectively and quantitatively. It is shown that the fracture surface of cortical bone has obvious fractal characteristics and four statistical texture feature parameters (contrast,angular second moment, correlation and entropy) of GLCM of fracture surfaces can describe a certain fracture texture character. The relationship between the characteristic parameters and macroscopic mechanical properties are established. The quantitative analysis and automatic class identification for the fracture surfaces of cortical bone can be achieved.
