Most of matching or verification phases of fingerprint systems use minutiae types and orientation angle to find matched minutiae pairs from the input and template fingerprints. Unfortunately, due to some non-linear distortions, like excessive pressure and fingers twisting during enrollment, this process can cause the minutiae features to be distorted from the original. The authors are then interested in a fingerprint matching method using contactless images for fingerprint verification. After features extraction, they compute Euclidean distances between template minutiae (bifurcation and ending points) and input image minutiae. They compute then after bifurcation ridges orientation angles and ending point orientations. In the decision stage, they analyze the similarity between templates. The proposed algorithm has been tested on a set of 420 fingerprint images. The verification accuracy is found to be acceptable and the experimental results are promising.

The main component for head recognition is a feature extraction. One of them as our novel method is histogram of transition. This feature is relied on foreground extraction. In this paper we evaluate some pre-processing to get foreground extraction before we calculate the histogram of transition.We evaluate the performance of recognition rate in related with preprocessing of input image, such as color, size and orientation. We evaluate for Red-Green-Blue (RGB) and Hue-saturation-Value (HSV) color image; multi scale of 10×15 pixels, 20×30 pixels and 40×60 pixels; and multi orientation angle of 315o, 330o, 345o, 15o, 30o, and 45o.For comparison, we compare the recognition rate with the existing method of feature extraction, i.e. Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) and Linear Binary Pattern (LBP). The experimental results show Histogram of Transition robust for changing of color, size and orientation angle.

Current precise geometric correction of Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) image slots is performed by shoreline matching. However, it is troublesome to handle slots with few or no shorelines, or slots covered by clouds. Geometric correction by frequency matching has been proposed to handle these slots. In this paper, we further extend previous research on frequency matching by comparing the performance of three frequency domain matching methods: phase correlation, gradient correlation, and orientation correlation. We compared the performance of each matching technique in terms of match success rate and geometric accuracy. We concluded that the three frequency domain matching method with peak search range limits was comparable to geometric correction performance with shoreline matching. The proposed method handles translation only, and assumes that rotation has been corrected. We need to do further work on how to handle rotation by frequency matching.

Pattern matching is essential in many applications such as information retrieval, logic programming, theorem-proving, term rewriting and DNA-computing. It usually breaks down into two categories: root and complete pattern matching. Root matching determines whether a subject term is an instance of a pattern in a pattern set while complete matching determines whether a subject term contains a sub-term that is an instance of a pattern in a pattern set. For the sake of efficiency, root pattern matching need to be deterministic and lazy. Furthermore, complete pattern matching also needs to be parallel. Unlike root pattern matching, complete matching received little interest from the researchers of the field. In this paper, we present a novel deterministic multi-threaded complete matching method. This method subsumes a deterministic lazy root matching technique that was developped by the authors in an earlier work. We evaluate the performance of proposed method using theorem-proving and DNA-computing applications.

Handwritten character recognition is most crucial one indulging in many of the applications like forensic search, searching historical manuscripts, mail sorting, bank check reading, tax form processing, book and handwritten notes transcription etc. The problem occurrence in the recognition is mainly because of the writing style variation, size variation (length and height), orientation angle etc. In this paper a probabilistic model based hybrid classifier is proposed for the character recognition combining the neural network and decision tree classifiers. In addition to the local gradient features i.e. histogram oriented feature and grid level feature, an additional feature called GLCM feature is extracted from the input image in the proposed recognition system and are concatenated for the image recognition procedure to encode color, shape, texture, local as well as the statistical information. These extracted features considered are given to the hybrid classifier which recognises the character. In the test set, recognition accuracy of 95% is achieved. The proposed probabilistic model based hybrid classifier tends to contribute more accurate character recognition rate compared to the existing character recognition system.
