Pattern Recognition and Information Forensics


Book Description

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of 3 workshops, held at the 24th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, Beijing, China, in August 2018: the Third International Workshop on Computer Vision for Analysis of Underwater Imagery, CVAUI 2018, the 7th International Workshop on Computational Forensics, IWCF 2018, and the International Workshop on Multimedia Information Processing for Personality and Social Networks Analysis, MIPPSNA 2018.The 16 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 23 submissions. CVAUI Workshop: The analysis of underwater imagery imposes a series of unique challenges, which need to be tackled by the computer vision community in collaboration with biologists and ocean scientists. IWCF Workshop: With the advent of high-end technology, fraudulent efforts are on rise in many areas of our daily life, may it be fake paper documents, forgery in the digital domain or copyright infringement. In solving the related criminal cases use of pattern recognition (PR) principles is also gaining an important place because of their ability in successfully assisting the forensic experts to solve many of such cases. MIPPSNA Workshop: Its goal is to compile the latest research advances on the analysis of multimodal information for facing problems that are not visually obvious, this is, problems for which the sole visual analysis is insufficient to provide a satisfactory solution.




Pattern Recognition Applications in Engineering


Book Description

The implementation of data and information analysis has become a trending solution within multiple professions. New tools and approaches are continually being developed within data analysis to further solve the challenges that come with professional strategy. Pattern recognition is an innovative method that provides comparison techniques and defines new characteristics within the information acquisition process. Despite its recent trend, a considerable amount of research regarding pattern recognition and its various strategies is lacking. Pattern Recognition Applications in Engineering is an essential reference source that discusses various strategies of pattern recognition algorithms within industrial and research applications and provides examples of results in different professional areas including electronics, computation, and health monitoring. Featuring research on topics such as condition monitoring, data normalization, and bio-inspired developments, this book is ideally designed for analysts; researchers; civil, mechanical, and electronic engineers; computing scientists; chemists; academicians; and students.




The Practice of Reproducible Research


Book Description

The Practice of Reproducible Research presents concrete examples of how researchers in the data-intensive sciences are working to improve the reproducibility of their research projects. In each of the thirty-one case studies in this volume, the author or team describes the workflow that they used to complete a real-world research project. Authors highlight how they utilized particular tools, ideas, and practices to support reproducibility, emphasizing the very practical how, rather than the why or what, of conducting reproducible research. Part 1 provides an accessible introduction to reproducible research, a basic reproducible research project template, and a synthesis of lessons learned from across the thirty-one case studies. Parts 2 and 3 focus on the case studies themselves. The Practice of Reproducible Research is an invaluable resource for students and researchers who wish to better understand the practice of data-intensive sciences and learn how to make their own research more reproducible.




Progress in Pattern Recognition, Image Analysis, Computer Vision, and Applications


Book Description

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition, CIARP 2015, held in Montevideo, Uruguay, in November 2015. The 95 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 185 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on applications on pattern recognition; biometrics; computer vision; gesture recognition; image classification and retrieval; image coding, processing and analysis; segmentation, analysis of shape and texture; signals analysis and processing; theory of pattern recognition; video analysis, segmentation and tracking.




Document Image Analysis


Book Description

The book focuses on one of the key issues in document image processing – graphical symbol recognition, which is a sub-field of the larger research domain of pattern recognition. It covers several approaches: statistical, structural and syntactic, and discusses their merits and demerits considering the context. Through comprehensive experiments, it also explores whether these approaches can be combined. The book presents research problems, state-of-the-art methods that convey basic steps as well as prominent techniques, evaluation metrics and protocols, and research standpoints/directions that are associated with it. However, it is not limited to straightforward isolated graphics (visual patterns) recognition; it also addresses complex and composite graphical symbols recognition, which is motivated by real-world industrial problems.




Implementing Reproducible Research


Book Description

In computational science, reproducibility requires that researchers make code and data available to others so that the data can be analyzed in a similar manner as in the original publication. Code must be available to be distributed, data must be accessible in a readable format, and a platform must be available for widely distributing the data and code. In addition, both data and code need to be licensed permissively enough so that others can reproduce the work without a substantial legal burden. Implementing Reproducible Research covers many of the elements necessary for conducting and distributing reproducible research. It explains how to accurately reproduce a scientific result. Divided into three parts, the book discusses the tools, practices, and dissemination platforms for ensuring reproducibility in computational science. It describes: Computational tools, such as Sweave, knitr, VisTrails, Sumatra, CDE, and the Declaratron system Open source practices, good programming practices, trends in open science, and the role of cloud computing in reproducible research Software and methodological platforms, including open source software packages, RunMyCode platform, and open access journals Each part presents contributions from leaders who have developed software and other products that have advanced the field.
