A neural network based dedicated thinning method

نویسنده

  • P. Ahmed
چکیده

This paper presents a new application of a neural network model in the area of dedicated (handwritten numerals) binary pattern thinning. The thinning method has been tested on 6000 randomly selected images of unconstrained handwritten numerals. The test results show that the method introduces minimal structural deformity and the skeletal shape of the underlying pattern is retained.

A conjugate gradient based method for Decision Neural Network training

Decision Neural Network is a new approach for solving multi-objective decision-making problems based on artificial neural networks. Using inaccurate evaluation data, network training has improved and the number of educational data sets has decreased. The available training method is based on the gradient decent method (BP). One of its limitations is related to its convergence speed. Therefore,...

A New Method for Detecting Ships in Low Size and Low Contrast Marine Images: Using Deep Stacked Extreme Learning Machines

Detecting ships in marine images is an essential problem in maritime surveillance systems. Although several types of deep neural networks have almost ubiquitously used for this purpose, but the performance of such networks greatly drops when they are exposed to low size and low contrast images which have been captured by passive monitoring systems. On the other hand factors such as sea waves, c...
