• Cascading Failure of Complex Networks under Degree-based Attack  
  by Yan Liu, Jie Yang, Peng Geng 
  Abstract: Frequent large-scale blackouts, network disconnections, and traffic jams have led to an increasing focus on the cascading failure of complex networks. This paper summarizes the research status of cascading failure in communication networks, power grids and independent networks. Considering the load and capacity of nodes, a cascading failure model of complex networks for degree-based attack is established. In this model, a new measurement method is proposed. This method is a normalized index to measure the impact of cascading failure, which is used to study the global consequences of different types of node failure. By attacking the nodes with higher and lower degree values, the effects of Higher-Degree-Based Attack (attacking nodes with a higher degree in descending order) strategy and Lower-Degree-Based Attack (attacking nodes with a lower degree in ascending order) strategy on network robustness are discussed. The simulations show that when certain conditions are met, attacking nodes with a lower degree (Lower-Degree-Based Attack) can cause greater damage. This result breaks the conventional thinking and provides a reference for the protection of important nodes in the real complex networks.
  Keywords: cascading failure; complex networks; degree-based attack.

  by Worapan Kusakunniran, Anuwat Wiratsudakul, Udom Chuachan, Thanandon Imaromkul, Sarattha Kanchanapreechakorn, Noppanut Suksriupatham, Kittikhun Thongkanchorn 
  Abstract: Identifying individual animals is important for many reasons of population control, illegal trade prevention, and disease surveillance. This paper focuses on the cattle identification, using biometric-based solution of muzzle images. The proposed method begins with localizing muzzle region in each image using the haar-cascade based classifier. The scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) is applied to extract key points of muzzle patterns. Then, SIFT points are split into different clusters/types of muzzle patterns, called bags of muzzle-words (BoM). Finally, the support vector machine (SVM) model is built on BoM as the cattle identifier. The proposed method is evaluated on the published muzzle images dataset of cattles and the collected muzzle image dataset of slaughterhouses and preserved muzzles of swamp buffalo. This reports the perfect accuracy of 100%. It is also evaluated with the collected dataset of muzzle images of swamp buffalo in the real fields with the reported accuracy of above 90%.

• LAHAR-CNN: Human Activity Recognition from one image using Convolutional Neural Network Learning Approach  
  by Hend Basly, Wael Ouarda, Fatma Ezahra Sayadi, Bouraoui Ouni, Adel M. Alimi 
  Abstract: The problem of human action recognition has attracted the interest of several researchers due to its significant use in many applications. With the great success of deep learning methods in most areas, researchers decided to switch from traditional methods based hand-crafted feature extractors to recent deep learning-based techniques to recognize the action. In the present research work, we propose a Learning Approach for Human Activity Recognition in the elderly based on Convolutional Neural Network (LAHAR-CNN). The CNN model is used to extract features from the dataset, then, a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) classifier is used for action classification. It has been widely admitted that features learned using a CNN model on a large dataset can be successfully transferred to an action recognition task with a small training dataset. The proposed method is evaluated on the well-known MSRDailyActivity 3D dataset. It has shown impressive results that exceed the performances obtained in the state of the art using the same dataset, thus reaching 99.4%. Furthermore, our proposed approach predicts human activity (HA) from one single frame sample which justifies its robustness. Hence, the proposed model is ranked at the top of the list of space-time techniques.

• Fingerprint core point detection using Connected Component approach and Orientation map Edge Tracing approach  
  by Jincy J. Fernandez, Nithyanandam Pandian 
  Abstract: Fingerprint recognition has always played a key role in forensic and commercial applications for human identification and verification purposes. The most challenging part of this recognition is to detect the accurate position of the fingerprints core point which is still an ongoing issue in the development of an automated person identification system and biometric watermarking system. This paper has tried to solve the aforementioned issue by proposing two novel edge-based methods that improve the accuracy of the fingerprints core point detection. The first proposed method uses the Connected Component approach, which helps to clearly distinguish whether the given fingerprint image has a core point or not. Also, it detects the exact location of the core point if it is present. The second proposed method does Edge Tracing on the orientation map to detect accurate core points in all types of fingerprint images. To define the accuracy of the proposed methods, an analytic comparison study has been done between the two methods. Further to this, the proposed work has been compared with some of the existing methods as well in terms of accuracy, consistency, and execution time. The samples of fingerprint images used for this study have been collected from SDUMLA-HMT, a multimodal biometric database. Experimental outcomes using these proposed works have determined its effectiveness by providing an outstanding detection rate.

• An Empirical Evaluation of Compression Techniques for Genome Sequences  
  by M. Muthulakshmi, Murugeswari G, RAJA S P 
  Abstract: Databases of biological sequences are increasing at an exponential rate due to the tremendous growth of all living organisms day by day. Among all other scientific databases, the size of biological databases is in terabytes. With the advancement in sequencing technology, each day thousands of nucleotide bases of different organisms are sequenced and submitted to the database worldwide. So, there is a need for compression of biological sequence data to reduce the space required for storage and thereby increase the transmission speed. Biological sequence data refers to DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid), RNA (Ribo Nucleic Acid) and Protein sequences. Three existing sequence compression algorithms namely Modified Huffbit, One Bit Compression and Extended ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) Compression algorithms are implemented. For analyzing the performance of these three algorithms, DNA sequence data is used. The DNA sequence data is obtained from NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), which is a freely available database contains data in FASTA format. The main aim of this paper is to compare and evaluate the performance of existing sequence compression algorithms using metrics such as compression ratio and space savings percentage. Experimental results show that Modified Huffbit Compress algorithm is the best algorithm among the three compression algorithms with an average compression ratio of 3.8.

• Facial Landmark Detection and Geometric Feature based Emotion Recognition  
  by P. Shanthi, S. Nickolas 
  Abstract: Facial expression related to machine intelligence is a popular research area in emotion science, pain assessment, human behavior analysis, virtual reality, etc. This paper aims at exploring a contour-based shape analysis from the viewpoint of geometric characteristics towards facial expression recognition. Since the facial landmark detection accuracy dramatically affects the final classification, a simple contour detection algorithm is used for identifying facial landmarks accurately. Spatial local and relative geometric features extracted with the neutral face as the reference are projected to the lower-dimensional space using stepwise linear discriminant analysis. The proposed system is tested and validated using back propagation based artificial neural network on JAFFE and MMI dataset with an average accuracy of 95.53% and 94.98%, respectively. The proposed scheme's recognition accuracy has been compared with the state-of-art methods, and the results show significant improvement in the proposed model over others using geometric features alone.

  by Yingying Liu, Xixi Li, Shaofeng Rong, Shimin Guan, Baoguo Cai, Shuo Zhang 
  Abstract: The distribution function of the current multi-dimensional distribution data association algorithm does not have timeliness, which causes the data to generate interference signals during the distribution process, and there are correlation trajectory errors. Based on DNAzyme, a multi-dimensional distribution data association algorithm is proposed. Use the classification characteristics of mostly distributed data to extract the characteristic parameters of the data, and at the same time strengthen the internal storage structure of different data to ensure the safe storage of data, connect the signal between the sensor and the data in time, establish a good data communication relationship, and select target tracking The way to estimate the distribution data state, obtain the information that matches the correlation law, and execute the correlation algorithm operation, adjust the distribution performance of the distribution data, and narrow the gap between the measurement data correlation trajectory and the real data correlation trajectory. Experimental results show that under the same parameter conditions, the proposed algorithm has stronger timeliness and the associated trajectory error rate is smaller.

  by Ahmad B. A. Hassanat, Abeer Ahmed Al Bustanji, Ahmad Tarawneh, Malek Alrashidi, Hani Alharbi, Mohammed Alanazi, Mansoor Alghamdi, V. B. Surya Prasath 
  Abstract: Biometric recognition based on the full face is an extensive research area. However, using only partially visible faces, such as in the case of veiled persons, is a challenging task. Deep convolutional neural network (CNN) is used in this work to extract the features from veiled-person face images. We found that the sixth and the seventh fully connected layers, FC6 and FC7 respectively, in the structure of the VGG19 network provide robust features with each of these two layers containing 4096 features. The main objective of this work is to test the ability of deep learning based automated computer system to identify not only persons, but also to perform recognition of gender, age, and facial expressions such as eye smile. Our experimental results indicate that we obtain high accuracy for all the tasks. The best recorded accuracy values are up to 99.95% for identifying persons, 99.9% for gender recognition, 99.9% for age recognition and 80.9% for facial expression (eye smile) recognition.

• Experimental results on palmvein-based personal recognition by multi-snapshot fusion of textural features  
  by Mohanad Abukmeil, Gian Luca Marcialis 
  Abstract: In this paper, we investigate multiple snapshot fusion of textural features for palmvein recognition including identification and verification. Although the literature proposed several approaches for palmvein recognition, the palmvein performance is still affected by identification and verification errors. As well-known, palmveins are usually described by line-based methods which enhance the vein flow. This is claimed to be unique from person to person. However, palmvein images are also characterized by texture that can be pointed out by textural features, which relies on recent and efficient algorithms such as Local Binary Patterns, Local Phase Quantization, Local Tera Pattern, Local directional Pattern, and Binarized Statistical Image Features (LBP, LPQ, LTP, LDP and BSIF, respectively), among others. Finally, they can be easily managed at feature-level fusion, when more than one sample can be acquired for recognition. Therefore, multi-snapshot fusion can be adopted for exploiting these features complementarity. Our goal is to show that thisrnis confirmed for palmvein recognition, thus allowing to achieve very high recognition rates on a well-known benchmark data set.
  Keywords: Palmvein Recognitioon; multi-snapshot fusion; local dense descriptor.
  
  
• Euclidean Distance versus Manhattan Distance for Skin Detection using the SFA Database  
  by Ouarda Soltani, Souad BENABDELKADER 
  Abstract: Skin detection is very challenging because of the differences in illumination or cameras characteristics, or the range of skin colors due to different ethnicities, and many other variations. Among important contributing tools to developing new methodologies more effective and accurate for skin color detection we could easily identify color human skin databases specifically designed to assist research in the area of face recognition. One of these is the recently built SFA database that showed high accuracy for segmentation of face images. In this particular context, the approach described in this paper exploits skin and non-skin samples provided by SFA for skin segmentation on the basis of the well-known Euclidean and Manhattan distance metrics. Most importantly, the scheme proposed tries to segment facial color images inside or outside SFA by means of skin samples belonging to SFA. Simulation results in both SFA and UTD color face databases indicate that detection rates higher than 95% can be achieved with either measure.

• A Robust and Efficient Fingerprint Minutiae Extraction in Post-Processing Algorithm  
  by R. Anandha Jothi, V. Palanisamy 
  Abstract: Minutiae extraction based fingerprint recognition is important for person authentication. However its own drawbacks and challenges such as missing and spurious minutiae which leads to a slight degree of inaccuracy. Herein an attempt has been made to overcome these challenges and achieve a higher degree of accuracy for minutiae extraction. In pre-processing the fingerprint image is subjected to frequency domain filter (FDF) and uses Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to improve the fingerprint image by conjoining some faultily broken points on ridges, removing some false connections between ridges and improves the appearance of the ridges by filling up small holes. Further the filtered fingerprint ridge and its valley are subjected to binarization and thinning process. Following this Rutovitz Crossing Number (CN) method is used to ensure the preservation of true minutiae and removal of false minutiae. In post-processing Grahams scan algorithm based convex hull filtering technique (CHFT) is effectively used to eliminate the bogus minutiae lying on the boundary of the fingerprint. It is observed that, the CHFT can be easily superposed on fingerprint image and the precision of the filtered minutiae verified visually. After post-processing, experimental results of ridge and valley based minutiae were analyzed individually and compared. It clearly revealed that the accuracy rate and goodness of index (GI) were better in ridges whereas the computational speed of post-processing was much faster in valley.

  by Li Wan 
  Abstract: In order to overcome the problems of high error rate and poor tracking effect of traditional algorithms, a multi-region fusion based feature tracking algorithm for long-distance runners was proposed in this paper. Firstly, the multi-region template voting strategy is adopted to classify and obtain face features by dividing face feature similarity threshold in different regions through regional feature similarity classification. Then the mean-Shift tracking algorithm was used to complete the target object modeling, and the pap coefficient was used as the evaluation standard of model similarity measurement, and the face features were tracked through iterative operation. Experimental results show that the recognition accuracy of this algorithm is higher than 92% in different situations, and the tracking error of the center position is always below 20 pixels in different angles and complex environments, which fully proves the effectiveness of this algorithm.

The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce the false classification rate, reduce the average matching time of fingerprint image, and improve the operation efficiency. The minimum error rate is only 1.02%.

• Research on automatic recognition method of basketball shooting action based on background subtraction method  
  by Linzhu Li, Kun Wang 
  Abstract: In order to overcome the problems existing in the existing methods, such as high rate of false recognition, high rate of missing recognition and low rate of recognition, an automatic recognition method of basketball shooting action based on background subtraction method is proposed. The background information of the target image is obtained by the background subtraction method to improve the clarity of the whole contour of the moving object. A certain number of video frames are extracted, and the background in the image is effectively separated. The two-dimensional Fourier transform is used to balance the video frames to obtain the foreground target information and the background of the video sequence, so as to complete the automatic recognition of basketball shooting action. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce the rate of false recognition and missed recognition, and improve the recognition rate.

• Recognition Method of Unspecified Face Expressions Based on Machine Learning  
  by ZheShu Jia, DeYun Chen 
  Abstract: Traditional face recognition methods usually complete facial expression recognition for designated faces, and the pixel set at the edge of face image is chaotic, which leads to poor accuracy of unspecified facial expression recognition. In order to improve the accuracy of unknown facial expression recognition, a method of unknown facial expression recognition based on machine learning is proposed. The feature detection model of unspecified facial expressions is constructed, and the features are divided into regional blocks. Fusion block feature information. Establishing spatial feature projection model, weighting feature information entropy, extracting statistical features and edge information entropy features, reorganizing features and matching edge pixel sets, and completing the recognition of various facial expression features. Experimental results show that the accuracy of this method is significant, reaching 1, which effectively improves the recognition efficiency and anti-interference performance.

• Research on leg posture recognition of sprinters based on SVM classifier  
  by Yang HE 
  Abstract: In order to overcome the problems of low recognition rate, high time consumption and high misclassification rate caused by the difficulty in obtaining the global motion pattern information of sprinters in traditional posture recognition methods, a leg pose recognition method based on SVM classifier is proposed. Using multivariate statistical model to denoise the sprint image, the effective leg movement pattern information of sprinters is extracted. In the SVM classifier, the samples are divided by decision function to realize the recognition of sprinters' leg posture. In order to verify the effectiveness of the method in this paper, a comparative experiment is designed. Experimental results show that the recognition rate of the proposed method is more than 90%, the time consumption of recognition process is always less than 0.5s, and the misclassification rate of leg pose features is always below 5%, which fully demonstrates the high recognition performance of the method.

• Automatic recognition of javelin athletes throwing angle based on recognizable statistical characteristics  
  by Zhe Dong, Xiongying Wang 
  Abstract: In order to overcome the problem that the traditional recognition method has poor statistical performance on the regularity of body feature data before recognizing the throwing angle, which leads to the deviation of javelin flight trajectory judgment results, this paper proposes an automatic recognition method of javelin athletes' throwing angle based on the recognizable statistical characteristics. Firstly, the technical characteristics of javelin throwers of different genders are extracted by using the statistical process of distinguishing features. Then, the angle of recognition equipment is calibrated and the position of trigger signal is combined to realize the automatic recognition of javelin throw angle. Experimental results show that: the javelin flight trajectory identified by this method is the closest to the actual trajectory, and the recognition accuracy of the throwing angle can reach more than 98%. It shows that the method can effectively realize the accurate recognition of javelin athletes throwing angle.

  by Shu Yang 
  Abstract: In order to solve the problems of low accuracy and long time-consuming in face image tracking of Aerobics Athletes in traditional methods, a face feature tracking algorithm based on Kalman filter and meanshift is proposed. Three frame difference method is used to extract the colour features of Aerobics Athletes' face images, measure the geometric feature similarity of Aerobics Athletes' face images, calculate the gray value of local images of Aerobics Athletes' face features, and match corner features by NCC matching algorithm. The Kalman filter method is introduced to denoise the different pixels of the feature image, and the mean shift of the Aerobics Athletes' face features is obtained by means of the mean shift algorithm to realise the tracking of the Aerobics Athletes' face features. The experimental results show that the tracking accuracy of the proposed method is up to 97%, and the shortest tracking time is about 1.5 s.
