Millimeter wave (mmWave) based sensing is a significant technique that enables innovative smart applications, e.g., voice recognition. The existing works in this area require direct of the human's near-throat region and consequently have limited applicability non-line-of-sight (NLoS) scenarios. This paper proposes AmbiEar, first mmWave recognition approach applicable NLoS AmbiEar on insight cau...

in this paper we address the issue of recognizing farsi handwritten words. two types of gradient features are extracted from a sliding vertical stripe which sweeps across a word image. these are directional and intensity gradient features. the feature vector extracted from each stripe is then coded using the self organizing map (som). in this method each word is modeled using the discrete hidde...
