Learning imprecise semantic concepts from image databases.

Daniel Sánchez, Jesús Chamorro-Martínez (2002)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

In this paper we introduce a model to represent high-level semantic concepts that can be perceived in images. The concepts are learned and represented by means of a set of association rules that relate the presence of perceptual features to the fulfillment of a concept for a set of images. Since both the set of images where a perceptual feature appears and the set of images fulfilling a given concept are fuzzy, we use in fact fuzzy association rules for the learning model. The concepts...

Evolutionary algorithms and fuzzy sets for discovering temporal rules

Stephen G. Matthews, Mario A. Gongora, Adrian A. Hopgood (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

A novel method is presented for mining fuzzy association rules that have a temporal pattern. Our proposed method contributes towards discovering temporal patterns that could otherwise be lost from defining the membership functions before the mining process. The novelty of this research lies in exploring the composition of fuzzy and temporal association rules, and using a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm combined with iterative rule learning to mine many rules. Temporal patterns...

On a fuzzy querying and data mining interface

Janusz Kacprzyk, Sławomir Zadrożny (2000)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In the paper an interface is proposed that combines flexible (fuzzy) querying and data mining functionality. The point of departure is the fuzzy querying interface designed and implemented previously by the present authors. It makes it possible to formulate and execute, against a traditional (crisp) database, queries containing imprecisely specified conditions. Here we discuss possibilities to extend it with some data mining features. More specifically, linguistic summarization of data...

Fuzzy approach for data association in image tracking.

Julio García, José Manuel Molina, Juan Alberto Besada, Javier I. Portillo (2003)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

A fuzzy system has been developed to ponder update decisions both for the trajectories and shapes estimated for targets. It is embedded in an A-SMGCS Surveillance function for airport surface, based on video data processing, in charge of the automatic detection, identification and tracking of all interesting targets (aircraft and relevant ground vehicles). The tracking system captures a sequence of images, preprocesses them to extract the moving regions (blobs), and associates the blobs...

Localization and fuzzy classification of manufacturing defects in sheets of glass.

Luis Junco Navascués, Luciano Sánchez (1998)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Artificial Vision Systems are commonly used in industrial applications. The low cost of the equipment facilitates the development of new products. In this paper we describe the use of an artificial vision system in one of the phases of a quality control process related to automotive industries: the windshield manufacturing. We intend to localize and classify the defects that were originated while manufacturing the glass that forms the windshield. We will show that a fuzzy classifier,...

Segmenting colour images on the basis of a fuzzy hierarchical approach.

Jesús Chamorro-Martínez, Daniel Sánchez, Belén Prados-Suárez, Elena Galán-Perales, M.ª Amparo Vila (2003)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

In this paper we deal with two problems related to imprecision in colour image segmentation processes: to decide whether a set of pixels verify the property to be homogeneously coloured, and to represent the set of possible segmentations of an image at different precision levels. In order to solve the first problem we introduce a measure of distance between colours in the CIE L*a*b* space, that allows us to measure the degree of homogeneity of two pixels p and q on the basis of the maximum...

Fuzzy sets in computer vision: an overview.

Pilar Sobrevilla, Eduard Montseny (2003)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Every computer vision level crawl with uncertainty, what makes its management a significant problem to be considered and solved when trying for automated systems for scene analysis and interpretation. This is why fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic is making many inroads into the handling of uncertainty in various aspects of image processing and computer vision. The growth within the use of fuzzy set theory in computer vision is keeping pace with the use of more complex algorithms...

Rule-based fuzzy object similarity.

Horst Bunke, Xavier Fábregas, Abraham Kandel (2001)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

A new similarity measure for objects that are represented by feature vectors of fixed dimension is introduced. It can simultaneously deal with numeric and symbolic features. Also, it can tolerate missing feature values. The similarity measure between two objects is described in terms of the similarity of their features. IF-THEN rules are being used to model the individual contribution of each feature to the global similarity measure between a pair of objects. The proposed similarity...

ReSySTER: A hybrid recommender system for Scrum team roles based on fuzzy and rough sets

Ricardo Colomo-Palacios, Israel González-Carrasco, José Luis López-Cuadrado, Ángel García-Crespo (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Agile development is a crucial issue within software engineering because one of the goals of any project leader is to increase the speed and flexibility in the development of new commercial products. In this sense, project managers must find the best resource configuration for each of the work packages necessary for the management of software development processes in order to keep the team motivated and committed to the project and to improve productivity and quality. This paper presents...
