Abstract—Image processing and recognition technologies are required to solve various problems. We have already proposed the system which automatically constructs image processing with Genetic Programming (GP), Automatic Construction of Tree-structural Image Transformation (ACTIT). However, it is difficult to construct an accurate image processing for all training image sets if they have various...

Face hallucination is to reconstruct a high-resolution face image from a low-resolution one based on a set of highand low-resolution training image pairs. This paper proposes an example-based two-step face hallucination method through coefficient learning. Firstly, the low-resolution input image and the low-resolution training images are interpolated to the same high-resolution space. Minimizin...

Precisely-labeled data sets with sufficient amount of samples are notably important for training deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, many of the available real-world data sets contain erroneously labeled samples and the error in labels of training sample makes it a daunting task to learn a well-performing deep CNN model. In this work, we consider the problem of training a deep C...

Reducing the number of colors in an image while preserving its quality, is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. It also decreases memory and transmission bandwidth requirements. Moreover, classification of image colors is applicable in image segmentation and object detection and separation, as well as producing pseudo-color images. In this paper, the Kohene...

A number of Non-Photorealistic Rendering methods for producing artistic style images have been developed. Recently, a method called “Image Analogies” was proposed. This method is based on the idea of example-based filtering that uses a pair of images (an original image and a filtered image) as training data and creates an image which has a style that resembles the filtered image of the training...

The effect of strength training on body image is understudied. The Strong Women Program, a 10-week, twice weekly strength-training program, was provided by Extension agents to 341 older rural women (62±12 years); changes in body image and other psychosocial variables were evaluated. Paired-sample t-test analyses were conducted to assess mean differences pre- to post-program. Strength training w...

Computer graphics offer various gadgets to enhance the reconstruction of high-order statistics that are not correctly addressed by the two-point statistics approaches. Almost all the newly developed multiple-point geostatistics (MPS) algorithms, to some extent, adapt these techniques to increase the simulation accuracy and efficiency. In this work, a scrutiny comparison between our recently dev...

The study was conducted with the objective of mapping landscape cover of Nechsar National park in Ethiopia to produce spatially accurate and timely information on land use and changing pattern. Monitoring provides the planners and decision-makers with required information about the current state of its development and the nature of changes that have occurred. Remote sensing and Geographical Inf...
