Hardware Implementation Of A Scale And Rotation Invariant Object Detection Algorithm On Fpga For Real-Time Applications, Murat Peker, Hali̇s Altun, Fuat Karakaya

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A hardware implementation of a computationally light, scale, and rotation invariant method for shape detection on FPGA is devised. The method is based on histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) and average magnitude difference function (AMDF). AMDF is used as a decision module that measures the similarity/dissimilarity between HOG vectors of an image in order to classify the object. In addition, a simulation environment implemented on MATLAB is developed in order to overcome the time-consuming and tedious process of hardware verification on the FPGA platform. The simulation environment provides specific tools to quickly implement the proposed methods. It is shown that …


Some Properties Of Digital H-Spaces, Özgür Ege, İsmet Karaca Jan 2016

Some Properties Of Digital H-Spaces, Özgür Ege, İsmet Karaca

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we study certain properties of digital H-spaces. We prove that a digital image that has the same digital homotopy type with any digital H-space is also a digital H-space. We show that the digital fundamental group of a digital H-space is abelian. We give examples that are related to a digital homotopy associative H-space and a $\kappa $-contractible digital H-space. Several important applications of digital H-spaces are given in computer vision and image processing. Finally, we deal with the importance of digital H-space in digital topology and image processing. We conclude that any $\kappa $-contractible digital image …

Brain Tumor Detection Using Monomodal Intensity Based Medical Image Registration And Matlab, Emrah Irmak, Ergun Erçelebi̇, Ahmet Hani̇fi̇ Ertaş

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

digital image processing. Using suitable computer programming techniques and transformation between two images, a new much more informative image can be found. In this paper, three important and basic medical image registration (MIR) methods, namely MIR by maximization of mutual information, MIR using cross correlation (Fourier transform approach), and MIR by minimization of similarity metric, were proposed and accordingly two comprehensive applications were performed using MIR by minimization of the similarity metric, which uses the sum of the squared differences metric as a metric and the regular step gradient descent optimizer as an optimizer. What is more, MR images of …
