In this thesis, a feature extraction algorithm based on 2D Local Discriminant Bases (LDB) search is developed for acoustic and hyperspectral data. The developed algorithm extracts the relevant features by both eliminating the irrelevant ones and/or by merging the ones that do not provide extra information on their own. It is implemented on real world data to separate aflatoxin contaminated or high risk hazelnuts from the sound ones by using impact acoustic and hyperspectral data. Impact acoustics data is used to sort cracked and intact shell hazelnuts with high classifi cation accuracy. Hypespectral images of the shelled and roasted (SRT) hazelnuts are used for classi fication and the algorithm extracted the spectral and spatial-frequency features for that classifi cation. Aflatoxin concentration of the SRT category hazelnuts is automatically decreased to 0.7 ppb from 608 ppb by eliminating the detected contaminated ones.

Classification of remotely sensed data by using 2D local discriminant bases
Tekinay, Çağrı; Çetin, Yasemin; Department of Information Systems (2009)
In this thesis, 2D Local Discriminant Bases (LDB) algorithm is used to 2D search structure to classify remotely sensed data. 2D Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) method is converted into an M-ary classifier by combining majority voting principle and linear distance parameters. The feature extraction algorithm extracts the relevant features by removing the irrelevant ones and/or combining the ones which do not represent supplemental information on their own. The algorithm is implemented on a remotely sensed...
Image Annotation With Semi-Supervised Clustering
Sayar, Ahmet; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2009-09-16)
Methods developed for image annotation usually make use of region clustering algorithms. Visual codebooks are generated from the region clusters of low level features. These codebooks are then, matched with the words of the text document related to the image, in various ways. In this paper, we supervise the clustering process by using three types of side information. The first one is the topic probability information obtained from the text document associated with the image. The second is the orientation an...
Comparison of feature-based and image registration-based retrieval of image data using multidimensional data access methods
Arslan, Serdar; Yazıcı, Adnan; Sacan, Ahmet; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Acar, Esra (Elsevier BV, 2013-07-01)
In information retrieval, efficient similarity search in multimedia collections is a critical task In this paper, we present a rigorous comparison of three different approaches to the image retrieval problem, including cluster-based indexing, distance-based indexing, and multidimensional scaling methods. The time and accuracy trade-offs for each of these methods are demonstrated on three different image data sets. Similarity of images is obtained either by a feature-based similarity measure using four MPEG-...
Image Annotation by Semi-Supervised Clustering Constrained by SIFT Orientation Information
Sayar, Ahmet; Yarman-Vural, Fatos T. (2008-10-29)
Methods developed for image annotation usually make use of region clustering algorithms. Visual codebooks are generated from the region clusters of low level features. These codebooks are then, matched with the words of the text document related to the image, in various ways. In this paper, we supervise the clustering process by using the orientation information assigned to each interest point of Scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) features to generate a visual codebook. The orientation information pro...
Surface Reconstruction from Multiple Images Filtering Non Lambert Regions
BÜYÜATALAY, Soner; BİRGÜL, ÖZLEM; Halıcı, Uğur (2009-09-10)
In this study a new algorithm for 3D surface reconstruction from multiple images using a modified photometric stereo method is proposed and tested. The new algorithm, Filtered Lambert Photometric Stereo (FLPS), determines the non-Lambert pixels in the available images using a linearity test and constructs filtering masks for each image that corresponds to specular and self or cast shadow regions. Then, the photometric stereo is applied after eliminating the points in these masks. Tests carried out on synthe...
