Abstract: As a latest biometric technique, finger vein recognition has been proved to be one of the most reliable biometric technology for personal authentication and security. The uncertainties and ambiguity in finger vein extraction can be handled more efficiently using fuzzy theory based techniques. Mamdani based fuzzy inference system is presented in this paper for locating the vein patterns in a finger vein image. A comparative analysis of the results is performed with some of the standard techniques.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a 26-layer generator network constrained by Neighbors-based Binary Patterns (NBP) texture loss to recover the clear image (guessing the original clear image) by mathematically modeling the local and global blurriness using a pair of defocused and mean blur kernels.
Abstract: Vein contraction and venous compression typically caused by low temperature and excessive placement pressure can blur the captured finger vein images and severely impair the quality of extracted features. To improve the quality of captured finger vein image, this paper proposes a 26-layer generator network constrained by Neighbors-based Binary Patterns (NBP) texture loss to recover the clear image (guessing the original clear image). Firstly, by analyzing various types and degrees of blurred finger vein images captured in real application scenarios, a method to mathematically model the local and global blurriness using a pair of defocused and mean blur kernels is proposed. By iteratively and alternatively convoluting clear images with both kernels in a multi-scale window, a polymorphic blur training set is constructed for network training. Then, NBP texture loss is used for training the generator to enhance the deblurring ability of the network on images. Lastly, a novel network structure is proposed to retain more vein texture feature information, and two residual connections are added on both sides of the residual module of the 26-layer generator network to prevent degradation and overfitting. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed neighbors-based binary-GAN (NB-GAN) can achieve better deblurring performance than the the-state-of-the-art approaches.

TL;DR: A tiered approach model in reducing dimensions for predicting CHD, capable of providing better performance than not tiered, is developed.
Abstract: The use of dimensional reduction in the diagnostic system model of coronary heart disease, many same of case do not take into account the clinical procedures commonly used by clinicians in diagnosis. This requires that the examination be done thoroughly, thus making the high cost of diagnosis. This study aims to develop a tiered approach model in reducing dimensions for predicting CHD. The method in this research is divided into several stages, namely preprocessing, building the knowledge base and system testing. Preprocessing consists of several processes, namely the removal of missing value data, grouping attributes, and dividing data for training and testing. Knowledge base modeling is divided into three levels. The first level were the risk factor attributes, the second level were the type of chest pain & ECG, and the third were scintigraphy & coronary angiography. The knowledge base was modeled based on fuzzy rules and its inferencing process using Mamdani method. The first, fuzzy rule-based was obtained by using the FRS study. The second and third stage, using the induction rule algorithm to get the rule, then converted to fuzzy rule. The tested algorithm were C4.5, CART, and FDT. The system testing was performed by the 5-folds cross-validation method, with performance parameters based on population and individual. The test resulted using the Cleveland and Hungarian datasets, the FRS+CART combination was capable of reducing the most attributes and the highest likelihood ratio performance parameter, which was 15.96. FRS+C4.5, at least the attributes were reduced, but has an AUC performance of 80.43%, while FRS+FDT, more reduced attributes than FRS+C4.5, and AUC performance parameters are better than FRS+CART. Dimensional reduction model for prediction of CHD, capable of providing better performance than not tiered.

TL;DR: The suggested process enhances the low contrast of the finger-vein image using dual contrast adaptive histogram equalization (DCLAHE) for visual attributes.
Abstract: The suggested process enhances the low contrast of the finger-vein image using dual contrast adaptive histogram equalization (DCLAHE) for visual attributes. The finger-vein histogram intensity is split out all over the image when dual CLAHE is used. For preprocessing, the finger-vein image dataset is obtained from the SDUMLA-HMT finger-vein database. Following the deployment of DCLAHE, the updated dataset is used to recognize objects using an improved 2D-CNN model. The 2D CNN model learns features by optimizing values of a preprocessed dataset. The accuracy of this model stands at 91.114%.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used the concept of rules from the C 4.5 decision tree in the building to make it easier to determine the rules that are built without having to consult an expert.
Abstract: Tile is a product that is in great demand by many people. This has become a trigger for producers to improve their management. The company's tile production management is still experiencing problems, namely frequent miscalculations in determining the agreement that must be issued in making tile production from customer requests. One of the efforts made is to predict the production that can be done to get the optimal amount obtained, to get a big profit. In this study, to obtain a prediction of the amount of tile production, computerized calculations were carried out using the Tsukamoto fuzzy logic method. This method uses the concept of rules from the C 4.5 decision tree in the building to make it easier to determine the rules that are built without having to consult an expert because C 4.5 will study existing datasets to serve as a reference in forming these rules according to conditions that often occur. The modeling results produce relevant rules after being compared with the actual results. The results of the comparison of predictions with actual production have an error percentage of 29.34%, with a truth of 70.66% (based on the calculation of the Average Forecasting Error Rate (AFER)). Therefore when implemented in the Tsukamoto Fuzzy Inference System it can produce predictions of tile production that are quite optimum. It is said to be quite optimum because all customer requests are met, either generated by the production prediction itself or the prediction results are added up with inventory data, and all predictions are close to actual production.

TL;DR: There is a natural uncertainty principle between detection and localization performance, which are the two main goals, and with this principle a single operator shape is derived which is optimal at any scale.
Abstract: This paper describes a computational approach to edge detection. The success of the approach depends on the definition of a comprehensive set of goals for the computation of edge points. These goals must be precise enough to delimit the desired behavior of the detector while making minimal assumptions about the form of the solution. We define detection and localization criteria for a class of edges, and present mathematical forms for these criteria as functionals on the operator impulse response. A third criterion is then added to ensure that the detector has only one response to a single edge. We use the criteria in numerical optimization to derive detectors for several common image features, including step edges. On specializing the analysis to step edges, we find that there is a natural uncertainty principle between detection and localization performance, which are the two main goals. With this principle we derive a single operator shape which is optimal at any scale. The optimal detector has a simple approximate implementation in which edges are marked at maxima in gradient magnitude of a Gaussian-smoothed image. We extend this simple detector using operators of several widths to cope with different signal-to-noise ratios in the image. We present a general method, called feature synthesis, for the fine-to-coarse integration of information from operators at different scales. Finally we show that step edge detector performance improves considerably as the operator point spread function is extended along the edge.

TL;DR: A mathematical tool to build a fuzzy model of a system where fuzzy implications and reasoning are used is presented and two applications of the method to industrial processes are discussed: a water cleaning process and a converter in a steel-making process.
Abstract: A mathematical tool to build a fuzzy model of a system where fuzzy implications and reasoning are used is presented. The premise of an implication is the description of fuzzy subspace of inputs and its consequence is a linear input-output relation. The method of identification of a system using its input-output data is then shown. Two applications of the method to industrial processes are also discussed: a water cleaning process and a converter in a steel-making process.

TL;DR: The theory of edge detection explains several basic psychophysical findings, and the operation of forming oriented zero-crossing segments from the output of centre-surround ∇2G filters acting on the image forms the basis for a physiological model of simple cells.
Abstract: A theory of edge detection is presented. The analysis proceeds in two parts. (1) Intensity changes, which occur in a natural image over a wide range of scales, are detected separately at different scales. An appropriate filter for this purpose at a given scale is found to be the second derivative of a Gaussian, and it is shown that, provided some simple conditions are satisfied, these primary filters need not be orientation-dependent. Thus, intensity changes at a given scale are best detected by finding the zero values of delta 2G(x,y)*I(x,y) for image I, where G(x,y) is a two-dimensional Gaussian distribution and delta 2 is the Laplacian. The intensity changes thus discovered in each of the channels are then represented by oriented primitives called zero-crossing segments, and evidence is given that this representation is complete. (2) Intensity changes in images arise from surface discontinuities or from reflectance or illumination boundaries, and these all have the property that they are spatially. Because of this, the zero-crossing segments from the different channels are not independent, and rules are deduced for combining them into a description of the image. This description is called the raw primal sketch. The theory explains several basic psychophysical findings, and the operation of forming oriented zero-crossing segments from the output of centre-surround delta 2G filters acting on the image forms the basis for a physiological model of simple cells (see Marr & Ullman 1979).

TL;DR: Fuzzy logic is used to convert heuristic control rules stated by a human operator into an automatic control strategy, and the control strategy set up linguistically proved to be far better than expected in its own right.
Abstract: This paper describes an experiment on the “linguistic” synthesis of a controller for a model industrial plant (a steam engine). Fuzzy logic is used to convert heuristic control rules stated by a human operator into an automatic control strategy. The experiment was initiated to investigate the possibility of human interaction with a learning controller. However, the control strategy set up linguistically proved to be far better than expected in its own right, and the basic experiment of linguistic control synthesis in a non-learning controller is reported here.
