This paper presents a technique to improve Gaussian mixture models for robust object detection by modifying the new model induction logic and using intensity difference thresholding to detect objects from one or more background models. The proposed method eliminates drawbacks of poor Gaussian mixture quality, susceptibility to background/foreground data proportion, and instability with varying operating environments. Quantitative and qualitative evaluations on test video sequences show the proposed technique achieves lower error rates and better visual results compared to existing methods.

A h k clustering algorithm for high dimensional data using ensemble learningijitcs
Advances made to the traditional clustering algorithms solves the various problems such as curse of
dimensionality and sparsity of data for multiple attributes. The traditional H-K clustering algorithm can
solve the randomness and apriority of the initial centers of K-means clustering algorithm. But when we
apply it to high dimensional data it causes the dimensional disaster problem due to high computational
complexity. All the advanced clustering algorithms like subspace and ensemble clustering algorithms
improve the performance for clustering high dimension dataset from different aspects in different extent.
Still these algorithms will improve the performance form a single perspective. The objective of the
proposed model is to improve the performance of traditional H-K clustering and overcome the limitations
such as high computational complexity and poor accuracy for high dimensional data by combining the
three different approaches of clustering algorithm as subspace clustering algorithm and ensemble
clustering algorithm with H-K clustering algorithm.

Convolutional auto-encoded extreme learning machine for incremental learning ...IJECEIAES
In real-world scenarios, a system's continual updating of learning knowledge becomes more critical as the data grows faster, producing vast volumes of data. Moreover, the learning process becomes complex when the data features become varied due to the addition or deletion of classes. In such cases, the generated model should learn effectively. Incremental learning refers to the learning of data which constantly arrives over time. This learning requires continuous model adaptation but with limited memory resources without sacrificing model accuracy. In this paper, we proposed a straightforward knowledge transfer algorithm (convolutional auto-encoded extreme learning machine (CAE-ELM)) implemented through the incremental learning methodology for the task of supervised classification using an extreme learning machine (ELM). Incremental learning is achieved by creating an individual train model for each set of homogeneous data and incorporating the knowledge transfer among the models without sacrificing accuracy with minimal memory resources. In CAE-ELM, convolutional neural network (CNN) extracts the features, stacked autoencoder (SAE) reduces the size, and ELM learns and classifies the images. Our proposed algorithm is implemented and experimented on various standard datasets: MNIST, ORL, JAFFE, FERET and Caltech. The results show a positive sign of the correctness of the proposed algorithm.
Class imbalance is a pervasive issue in the field of disease classification from
medical images. It is necessary to balance out the class distribution while training a model. However, in the case of rare medical diseases, images from affected
patients are much harder to come by compared to images from non-affected
patients, resulting in unwanted class imbalance. Various processes of tackling
class imbalance issues have been explored so far, each having its fair share of
drawbacks. In this research, we propose an outlier detection based image classification technique which can handle even the most extreme case of class imbalance. We have utilized a dataset of malaria parasitized and uninfected cells. An
autoencoder model titled AnoMalNet is trained with only the uninfected cell images at the beginning and then used to classify both the affected and non-affected
cell images by thresholding a loss value. We have achieved an accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score of 98.49%, 97.07%, 100%, and 98.52% respectively,
performing better than large deep learning models and other published works.
As our proposed approach can provide competitive results without needing the
disease-positive samples during training, it should prove to be useful in binary
disease classification on imbalanced datasets.
Adaptive threshold for moving objects detection using gaussian mixture modelTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Moving object detection becomes the important task in the video surveilance system. Defining the threshold automatically is challenging to differentiate the moving object from the background within a video. This study proposes gaussian mixture model (GMM) as a threshold strategy in moving object detection. The performance of the proposed method is compared to the Otsu algorithm and gray threshold as the baseline method using mean square error (MSE) and Peak Signal Noise Ratio (PSNR). The performance comparison of the methods is evaluated on human video dataset. The average result of MSE value GMM is 257.18, Otsu is 595.36 and Gray is 645.39, so the MSE value is lower than Otsu and Gray threshold. The average result of PSNR value GMM is 24.71, Otsu is 20.66 and Gray is 19.35, so the PSNR value is higher than Otsu and Gray threshold. The performance of the proposed method outperforms the baseline method in term of error detection.

Last decade has witnessed an ever increasing number of video surveillance installa- tions due to the rise of security concerns worldwide. With this comes the need for video analysis for fraud detection, crime investigation, traffic monitoring to name a few. For any kind of video analysis application, detection of moving objects in videos is a fundamental step. In this paper, an efficient foreground modelling method to segment multiple moving objects is implemented. Proposed method significantly reduces noise thereby accurately segmenting region of interest under dynamic conditions while handling occlusion to a large extent. Extensive performance analysis shows that the proposed method was found to give far better results when compared to the de facto standard as well as relatively new approaches used for moving object detection.

Abstract Efficient security management has become an important parameter in today’s world. As the problem is growing, there is an urgent need for the introduction of advanced technology and equipment to improve the state-of art of surveillance. In this paper we propose a model for real time background subtraction using AGMM. The proposed model is robust and adaptable to dynamic background, fast illumination changes, repetitive motion. Also we have incorporated a method for detecting shadows using the Horpresert color model. The proposed model can be employed for monitoring areas where movement or entry is highly restricted. So on detection of any unexpected events in the scene an alarm can be triggered and hence we can achieve real time surveillance even in the absence of constant human monitoring.

Self scale estimation of the tracking window merged with adaptive particle fi...IJECEIAES
Tracking a mobile object is one of the important topics in pattern recognition, but style has some obstacles. A reliable tracking system must adjust their tracking windows in real time according to appearance changes of the tracked object. Furthermore, it has to deal with many challenges when one or multiple objects need to be tracked, for instance when the target is partially or fully occluded, background clutter, or even some target region is blurred. In this paper, we will present a novel approach for a single object tracking that combines particle filter algorithm and kernel distribution that update its tracking window according to object scale changes, whose name is multi-scale adaptive particle filter tracker. We will demonstrate that the use of particle filter combined with kernel distribution inside the resampling process will provide more accurate object localization within a research area. Furthermore, its average error for target localization was significantly lower than 21.37 pixels as the mean value. We have conducted several experiments on real video sequences and compared acquired results to other existing state of the art trackers to demonstrate the effectiveness of the multi-scale adaptive particle filter tracker.
Algorithmic Analysis to Video Object Tracking and Background Segmentation and...Editor IJCATR
Video object tracking and segmentation are the fundamental building blocks for smart surveillance
system. Various algorithms like partial least square analysis, Markov model, Temporal differencing,
background subtraction algorithm, adaptive background updating have been proposed but each were having
drawbacks like object tracking problem, multibackground congestion, illumination changes, occlusion etc.
The background segmentation worked on to principled object tracking by using two models Gaussian mixture
model and level centre model. Wavelet transforms have been one of the important signal processing
developments, especially for the applications such as time-frequency analysis, data compression,
segmentation and vision. The key idea of the wavelet transform approach is to represents any arbitrary
function f (t) as a superposition of a set of such wavelets or basis functions. Results show that algorithm
performs well to remove occlusion and multibackground congestion as well as algorithm worked with
removal of noise in the signals
MR Image Compression Based on Selection of Mother Wavelet and Lifting Based W...ijma
Magnetic Resonance (MR) image is a medical image technique required enormous data to be stored and
transmitted for high quality diagnostic application. Various algorithms have been proposed to improve the
performance of the compression scheme. In this paper we extended the commonly used algorithms to image
compression and compared its performance. For an image compression technique, we have linked different
wavelet techniques using traditional mother wavelets and lifting based Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau
wavelets with the low-pass filters of the length 9 and 7 (CDF 9/7) wavelet transform with Set Partition in
Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm. A novel image quality index with highlighting shape of histogram
of the image targeted is introduced to assess image compression quality. The index will be used in place of
existing traditional Universal Image Quality Index (UIQI) “in one go”. It offers extra information about
the distortion between an original image and a compressed image in comparisons with UIQI. The proposed
index is designed based on modelling image compression as combinations of four major factors: loss of
correlation, luminance distortion, contrast distortion and shape distortion. This index is easy to calculate
and applicable in various image processing applications. One of our contributions is to demonstrate the
choice of mother wavelet is very important for achieving superior wavelet compression performances based
on proposed image quality indexes. Experimental results show that the proposed image quality index plays
a significantly role in the quality evaluation of image compression on the open sources “BrainWeb:
Simulated Brain Database (SBD) ”.
GeoAI: A Model-Agnostic Meta-Ensemble Zero-Shot Learning Method for Hyperspec...Konstantinos Demertzis
Deep learning architectures are the most e
ective methods for analyzing and classifying Ultra-Spectral Images (USI). However, e ective training of a Deep Learning (DL) gradient classifier aiming to achieve high classification accuracy, is extremely costly and time-consuming. It requires huge datasets with hundreds or thousands of labeled specimens from expert scientists. This research exploits the MAML++ algorithm in order to introduce the Model-Agnostic Meta-Ensemble Zero-shot Learning (MAME-ZsL) approach. The MAME-ZsL overcomes the above diculties, and it can be used as a powerful model to perform Hyperspectral Image Analysis (HIA). It is a novel optimization-based Meta-Ensemble Learning architecture, following a Zero-shot Learning (ZsL) prototype. To the best of our knowledge it is introduced to the literature for the first time. It facilitates learning of specialized techniques for the extraction of user-mediated representations, in complex Deep Learning architectures. Moreover, it leverages the use of first and second-order derivatives as pre-training methods. It enhances learning of features which do not cause issues of exploding or diminishing gradients; thus, it avoids potential overfitting. Moreover, it significantly reduces computational cost and training time, and it oers an improved training stability, high generalization performance and remarkable classification accuracy.
Noise-robust classification with hypergraph neural networknooriasukmaningtyas
This paper presents a novel version of hypergraph neural network method. This method is utilized to solve the noisy label learning problem. First, we apply the PCA dimensional reduction technique to the feature matrices of the image datasets in order to reduce the “noise” and the redundant features in the feature matrices of the image datasets and to reduce the runtime constructing the hypergraph of the hypergraph neural network method. Then, the classic graph based semisupervised learning method, the classic hypergraph based semi-supervised learning method, the graph neural network, the hypergraph neural network, and our proposed hypergraph neural network are employed to solve the noisy label learning problem. The accuracies of these five methods are evaluated and compared. Experimental results show that the hypergraph neural network methods achieve the best performance when the noise level increases. Moreover, the hypergraph neural network methods are at least as good as the graph neural network.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Abstract
Adaptive Gaussian mixtures are widely used to model the dynamic background for real-time object detection. However,
object quality still remains unacceptable due to poor Gaussian mixture quality, susceptibility to background/foreground
data proportion, and instability with varying operating environments. This paper presents an effective technique to
eliminate these drawbacks by modifying the new model induction logic and using intensity difference thresholding to
detect objects from one or more believe-to-be backgrounds.
