Improved Object Re-Identification Via More Efficient Embeddings, Ertugrul Bayraktar

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Object reidentification (ReID) in cluttered rigid scenes is a challenging problem especially when same-looking objects coexist in the scene. ReID is accepted to be one of the most powerful tools for matching the correct identities to each individual object when issues such as occlusion, missed detections, multiple same-looking objects coexisting in the same scene, and disappearance of objects from the view and/or revisiting the same region arise. We propose a novel framework towards more efficient object ReID, improved object reidentification (IO-ReID), to perform object ReID in challenging scenes with real-time processing in mind. The proposed approach achieves distinctive and efficient …

Study Of Helical Antenna Endowing Short Wire Length And Compact Structure For High-Frequency Operations And Its Exclusive Manufacturing Process, Meli̇h Aslan, Kaan Şik, İzzet Güzelkara, İbrahi̇m Tuna Özdür, Veli̇ Tayfun Kiliç

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper a study of a helical antenna resonating at high-frequency (HF) band with a very compact structure is reported. The designed antenna's S11 parameter magnitude change with frequency was calculated for different geometrical parameters. For each case, first, only a single parameter was changed. Then for a fair comparison, multiple parameters were changed simultaneously while the total wire length was set to be constant. Also, shifts in resonance frequencies and variations in -10 dB bandwidths were investigated. Our results show that resonance behaviour changes distinctively with the geometrical parameters and it allows shortening of the antenna wire length. …

A Multistep Fusion Matcher Approach For Large Scale Latent Fingerprint/Palmprint Recognition, İsmai̇l Kilinç, Yusuf Oğuzhan Artan, Emre Başeski̇

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Latent fingerprints are ubiquitously used as forensic evidence by law enforcement agencies in solving crimes. However, due to deformations and artifacts within latent fingerprint images, performance of the automated latent recognition systems are far from desired levels. A basic matcher specifically designed for clean fingerprints using a minutiae-based matching algorithm can have high speed and accuracy in a sensor-to-sensor matching task, but low accuracy in matching latent prints, due to scale, rotation and quality differences between latent and sensor images. In this study, we propose a unique multistep fusion matcher (FM) on top of a base matcher that would utilize …
