detecting faces in cluttered backgrounds and real world has remained as an unsolved problem yet. in this paper, by using composition of some kind of independent features and one of the most common appearance based approaches, and multilayered perceptron (mlp) neural networks, not only some questions have been answered, but also the designed system achieved better performance rather than the pre...

in this paper, the performance of 11 different distances for image retrieval and classification, based on color, shape and texture, is evaluated. the precision-recall measure and the correct classification rate of the k-nn classifier are used to evaluate retrieval and classification performances, respectively. the experimental results for a database of 1000 images from 10 different semantic gro...

in this paper a novel fuzzy scheme for medical x-ray image classification is presented. in this method, any image is partitioned in to 25 overlapping subimages and then shape-texture features are extracted from shape and directional information extracted from any subimage. in the classification stage, we apply a fuzzy membership to any subimage with respect to euclidean distance between feature...

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...

introduction: content based image retrieval (cbir) is a method of image searching and retrieval in a  database. in medical applications, cbir is a tool used by physicians to compare the previous and current  medical images associated with patients pathological conditions. as the volume of pictorial information  stored in medical image databases is in progress, efficient image indexing and retri...
