Neural Networks for Vehicle Recognition

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...

Effect of sound classification by neural networks in the recognition of human hearing

In this paper, we focus on two basic issues: (a) the classification of sound by neural networks based on frequency and sound intensity parameters (b) evaluating the health of different human ears as compared to of those a healthy person. Sound classification by a specific feed forward neural network with two inputs as frequency and sound intensity and two hidden layers is proposed. This process...

Pattern Recognition in Control Chart Using Neural Network based on a New Statistical Feature

Today for the expedition of the identification and timely correction of process deviations, it is necessary to use advanced techniques to minimize the costs of production of defective products. In this way control charts as one of the important tools for the statistical process control in combination with modern tools such as artificial neural networks have been used. The artificial neural netw...

Aircraft Visual Identification by Neural Networks

In the present paper, an efficient method for three dimensional aircraft pattern recognition is introduced. In this method, a set of simple area based features extracted from silhouette of aerial vehicles are used to recognize an aircraft type from its optical or infrared images taken by a CCD camera or a FLIR sensor. These images can be taken from any direction and distance relative to the fly...

Recognition of Handwritten Persian Numbers and Arithmetic Symbols Using Neural Networks

Handwritten Character Recognition using Modified Gradient Descent Technique of Neural Networks and Representation of Conjugate Descent for Training Patterns

The purpose of this study is to analyze the performance of Back propagation algorithm with changing training patterns and the second momentum term in feed forward neural networks. This analysis is conducted on 250 different words of three small letters from the English alphabet. These words are presented to two vertical segmentation programs which are designed in MATLAB and based on portions (1...
