13.1 Introduction
Remember back in Lecture 2 that we defined an edge as a place of local transition from one object to another. They aren’t complete borders, just locally-identifiable probable transitions. In this lecture and the next, we’ll discuss ways for detecting edges locally. To do

    In this paper we are going to present a new shape contour tracing algorithm called ¡§Adaptive Contour Tracing Algorithm¡¨. The algorithm can trace open and closed discontinuous digital shapes and return an ordered set of boundary points that represent the contour of the shape. Unlike other algorithms that return boundary points that are part of the traced shape, our algorithm returns background points that are adjacent to the shape¡¦s contour. Furthermore, the algorithm is not hindered by shapes that are noisy and ill-defined as it can adapt to interruptions in the shape¡¦s contour using a pre-set tolerance and is able to scan multiple neighbors of a given point. The algorithm has a low complexity and no restrictions on the type or size of the traced shape. The extracted ordered set of boundary points represents the contour of a given shape and is important for curvature-based shape descriptors.…

    Pattern Recognition

    • 2 Pages

    In machine learning, pattern recognition is the assignment of a label to a given input value. An example of pattern recognition is classification, which attempts to assign each input value to one of a given set of classes (for example, determine whether a given email is "spam" or "non-spam"). However, pattern recognition is a more general problem that encompasses other types of output as well. Other examples are regression, which assigns a real-valued output to each input; sequence labeling, which assigns a class to each member of a sequence of values (for example, part of speech tagging, which assigns a part of speech to each word in an input sentence); and parsing, which assigns a parse tree to an input sentence, describing the syntactic structure of the sentence.…

    segmentation

    For a company or business to effectively respond to different customers needs and wants in order to increase sales, they make use of market segmentation. Market segmentation as defined by Kerin, author of Marketing, 10e; involves grouping potential customers who have common needs and will respond similarly to a marketing action. In further elaboration to define segmentation, if there is a demographic group of customers who are all on diets and are watching their weight (common needs/desires) and a business markets the segment of dark chocolate as a healthier option to satisfy sweet cravings, this would be an example of market segmentation. On the same token if a company were to market the medical and health benefits of dark chocolate, a demographic that would similarly respond to this marketing action would be the health-conscious demographic. There are a few different segmentation basis’s that are relevant to chocolate bars, it is a multiple product aimed at multiple market segment industry, a few segments that can be used in the chocolate industry are demographic, psychographic, and behavioral. Demographic includes age (kids are more likely to chocolate than adults), gender (Females are more likely to have cravings for chocolate than males are), and life stage (parents with young children are likely to purchase chocolate). Psychographic segmentation includes personality (compulsive buyers, people with a sweet tooth, etc), lifestyle (single people dating will buy chocolates for dates), and needs (health needs such as diabetes would need a sugar free chocolate bar). Behavioral...…

    1, a parameter is a special kind of variable, used in a subroutine to refer to one of the pieces of data provided as input to the subroutine.[1] These pieces of data are called arguments. An ordered list of parameters is usually included in the definition of a subroutine, so that, each time the subroutine is called, its arguments for that call can be assigned to the corresponding parameters.…

    Mathematical morphology (MM) is a theory and technique for the analysis and processing of geometrical structures, based on set theory, lattice theory, topology, and random functions. MM is most commonly applied to digital images, but it can be employed as well on graphs, surface meshes, solids, and many other spatial structures. Topological and geometrical continuous-space concepts such as size, shape, convexity, connectivity, and geodesic distance, were introduced by MM on both continuous and discrete spaces. MM is also the foundation of morphological image processing, which consists of a set of operators that transform images according to the above characterizations. MM was originally developed for binary images, and was later extended to grayscale functions and images. The subsequent generalization to complete lattices is widely accepted today as MM's theoretical foundation.…

    Medical images enhancement and edge detection is an important work for object recognition of the human organs and it is an essential pre-processing requirement in medical imaging. The effect of the edge detection decides the result of the final processed image. Conventionally, edge is detected according to some early brought forward algorithms like Sobel algorithm, Canny algorithm and Laplacian of Gaussian operator(zero crossing method in our case) , but in theory they belong to…
