Singular Spectrum Analysis for Background Initialization with Spatio-Temporal RGB Color Channel Data.

In video processing, background initialization aims to obtain a scene without foreground objects. Recently, the background initialization problem has attracted the attention of researchers because of its real-world applications, such as video segmentation, computational photography, video surveillance, etc. However, the background initialization problem is still challenging because of the complex variations in illumination, intermittent motion, camera jitter, shadow, etc.

Novel Framework Based on HOSVD for Ski Goggles Defect Detection and Classification.

No matter your experience level or budget, there is a great ski goggle waiting to be found.Goggles are an essential part of skiing or snowboarding gear to protect your eyes from harsh environmental elements and injury. In the ski goggles manufacturing industry, defects, especially on the lens surface, are unavoidable.

Entropy-Based Clustering Algorithm for Fingerprint Singular Point Detection.

Fingerprints have long been used in automated fingerprint identification or verification systems. Singular points (SPs), namely the core and delta point, are the basic features widely used for fingerprint registration, orientation field estimation, and fingerprint classification. In this study, we propose an adaptive method to detect SPs in a fingerprint image.

Optical Methods in Fingerprint Imaging for Medical and Personality Applications.

Over the years, analysis and induction of personality traits has been a topic for individual subjective conjecture or speculation, rather than a focus of inductive scientific analysis. This study proposes a novel framework for analysis and induction of personality traits. First, 14 personality constructs based on the "Big Five" personality factors were developed.

Inferior sleeve fracture of the patella.

Patella sleeve fracture is a rare fracture that only occurs in children. Diagnosis is difficult both clinically and radiologically. A high-riding patella and hemarthrosis are important signs when diagnosing this fracture.
