چکیده

A number of different methods exist for the color characterization of imaging devices such as digital camera systems. In this study, the use of high-order polynomials and artificial neural networks for color camera characterization are compared and contrasted. A quantitative evaluation of their performance is determined for a typical commercial camera system. The importance of independent training and testing sets is stressed and the effect of the number of samples in the training set is evaluated. The results show that, if the best performance is considered, the two models are approximately comparable. Any performance advantage obtained from using a neural network for device characterization does not seem to be warranted given the additional risks of using such systems. The effect of training set size seems surprisingly small for both polynomial and neural systems with generalization performance only being seriously affected for training set sizes less than about 100.

Integration of Color Features and Artificial Neural Networks for In-field Recognition of Saffron Flower

ABSTRACT-Manual harvesting of saffron as a laborious and exhausting job; it not only raises production costs, but also reduces the quality due to contaminations. Saffron quality could be enhanced if automated harvesting is substituted. As the main step towards designing a saffron harvester robot, an appropriate algorithm was developed in this study based on image processing techniques to recogn...

Effective Feature Selection for Pre-Cancerous Cervix Lesions Using Artificial Neural Networks

Since most common form of cervical cancer starts with pre-cancerous changes, a flawless detection of these changes becomes an important issue to prevent and treat the cervix cancer. There are 2 ways to stop this disease from developing. One way is to find and treat pre-cancers before they become true cancers, and the other is to prevent the pre-cancers in the first place. The presented approach...

Modelling of color scanners using neural networks

Since color scanners are not colorimetric, the optimal mapping from scanned values to colorimetric values is inherently nonlinear. Characterization of the scanner requires approximating this nonlinear mapping from the space of scanned values to a device independant color space. Neural networks are particularly suited to this task. Performance using an arti cial neural network generated LUT is c...
