An Exploration Of Methods For Classifying Air-Written Letters From The Spanish Alphabet, Manuel Serna-Aguilera

Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses

The ability to recognize human activity, especially air-writing, is an interesting challenge as one could identify any letter from many languages. I intend to investigate this problem of air-writing, but with the added twist of including the following letters from the Spanish alphabet: Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú, Ü, and Ñ. With this new alphabet, I set out to see what kinds of classifiers work best and on what kinds of data, since letters can be represented in multiple ways.

My tracking system will consist of a regular camera and a subject who will draw with a brightly colored marker …

Deep Learning-Based Framework For Autism Functional Mri Image Classification, Xin Yang, Saman Sarraf, Ning Zhang

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

The purpose of this paper is to introduce deep learning-based framework LeNet-5 architecture and implement the experiments for functional MRI image classification of Autism spectrum disorder. We implement our experiments under the NVIDIA deep learning GPU Training Systems (DIGITS). By using the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) LeNet-5 architecture, we successfully classified functional MRI image of Autism spectrum disorder from normal controls. The results show that we obtained satisfactory results for both sensitivity and specificity.
