Visual Speech Recognition Using A 3d Convolutional Neural Network, Matthew Rochford
Visual Speech Recognition Using A 3d Convolutional Neural Network, Matthew Rochford
Master's Theses
Main stream automatic speech recognition (ASR) makes use of audio data to identify spoken words, however visual speech recognition (VSR) has recently been of increased interest to researchers. VSR is used when audio data is corrupted or missing entirely and also to further enhance the accuracy of audio-based ASR systems. In this research, we present both a framework for building 3D feature cubes of lip data from videos and a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture for performing classification on a dataset of 100 spoken words, recorded in an uncontrolled envi- ronment. Our 3D-CNN architecture achieves a testing accuracy of …
Strawberry Detection Under Various Harvestation Stages, Yavisht Fitter
Strawberry Detection Under Various Harvestation Stages, Yavisht Fitter
Master's Theses
This paper analyzes three techniques attempting to detect strawberries at various stages in its growth cycle. Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG), Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) were implemented on a limited custom-built dataset. The methodologies were compared in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency. Computational efficiency is defined in terms of image resolution as testing on a smaller dimensional image is much quicker than larger dimensions. The CNN based implementation obtained the best results with an 88% accuracy at the highest level of efficiency as well (600x800). LBP generated moderate results with a 74% detection accuracy …
A Study Of Face Embedding In Face Recognition, Khanh Duc Le
A Study Of Face Embedding In Face Recognition, Khanh Duc Le
Master's Theses
Face Recognition has been a long-standing topic in computer vision and pattern recognition field because of its wide and important applications in our daily lives such as surveillance system, access control, and so on. The current modern face recognition model, which keeps only a couple of images per person in the database, can now recognize a face with high accuracy. Moreover, the model does not need to be retrained every time a new person is added to the database.
By using the face dataset from Digital Democracy, the thesis will explore the capability of this model by comparing it with …
