With the rise in Air Traffic flow across the world due to advancement in technology and developments in the field of aeronautical engineering, the cases of emergency and panic situations on flights have also emerged at an exponential rate. Every single day, we hear of emergency situations in flights like fires, birdstrikes, diversions, engine failures and emergency landings etc. Across the globe,...
We develop a new approach for gender recognition. In this paper, our approach uses the rectangle feature vector (RFV) as a representation to identify humans' gender from their faces. The RFV is computationally fast and effective to encode intensity variations of local regions of human face. By only using few rectangle features learned by AdaBoost, we present a gender identifier. We then use nonlinear...
Microarray is an important tool in gene analysis research. It can help identify genes that might cause various cancers. In this paper, we use feature selection methods and the support vector machine (SVM) to search for the disease-causing genes in microarray data of three different cancers. The feature selection methods are based on Euclidian distance (ED) and Pearson correlation coefficient(PCC)...
A system is developed for analyzing poses in a standing long jump automatically. In the system, silhouette of the jumper is segmented from the background first. A thinning algorithm is then used to find a rough skeleton from the silhouette. Some image processing techniques are applied to make the resulted skeleton smoother and simpler. Key points are extracted from the skeleton. Finally, the dynamic...
