Artificial intelligence has become widespread in image processing tasks. At the same time, the number of vulnerabilities is increasing in systems implementing these artificial intelligence technologies (the attack surface is increasing). The main threats to information security can be implemented by introducing malicious perturbations into the input data, regardless of their type. To detect such attacks, approaches and methods have been developed based, in particular, on the use of an auto-encoder or the analysis of layers of the target neural network. The disadvantage of existing methods, which significantly reduce the scope of their application, is binding to the dataset or model architecture. This paper discusses the issues of expanding the scope (increasing scalability) of methods for detecting L0-optimized perturbations introduced by unconventional pixel attacks. An approach to detecting these attacks using statistical analysis of input data, regardless of the model and dataset, is proposed. It is assumed that the pixels of the perturbation embedded in the image, as a result of the L0-optimized attack, will be considered both local and global outliers. Outlier detection is performed using statistical metrics such as deviation from nearest neighbors and Mahalanobis distance. The evaluation of each pixel (anomaly score) is performed as a product of the specified metrics. A threshold clipping algorithm is used to detect an attack. When a pixel is detected for which the received score exceeds a certain threshold, the image is recognized as distorted. The approach was tested on the CIFAR-10 and MNIST datasets. The developed method has demonstrated high accuracy in detecting attacks. On the CIFAR-10 dataset, the accuracy of detecting onepixel attack (accuracy) was 94.3 %, and when detecting a Jacobian based Saliency Map Attack (JSMA) — 98.3 %. The proposed approach is also applicable in the detection of modified pixels. The proposed approach is applicable for detecting one-pixel attacks and JSMA, but can potentially be used for any L0-optimized distortions. The approach is applicable for color and grayscale images regardless of the dataset. The proposed approach is potentially universal for the architecture of a neural network, since it uses only input data to detect attacks. The approach can be used to detect images modified by unconventional adversarial attacks in the training sample before the model is formed.

In the process of water treatment, the coagulation process is a complex system characterized by significant lag and non-linearity. To address its characteristics and based on the current research status of dosing control, a forward-cascade intelligent dosing system based on floc image processing and fuzzy logic control was developed. Through the acquisition and processing of water sample images, key parameters of floc characteristics were extracted, and the equivalent diameters were calculated to establish a dosing model to determine the coagulant dosage. Subsequently, automatic adjustment and precise dosing of coagulants were achieved through fuzzy PID control and feedforward compensation. System monitoring and performance analysis showed that compared with traditional manual dosing, the intelligent dosing system reduced the standard deviation of the sedimentation effluent turbidity by 27%, with the relative error controlled within 10% of the set value. The dosage of coagulants was reduced by 11.04%. The intelligent dosing system demonstrated significant advantages in coagulant dosage and treatment effects, which showed promising feasibility and potential for dissemination.

Counting the number of soil particles in grain size studies is of great importance, especially in geological, agricultural, environmental, and engineering sciences. It can be used for detailed analysis of soil properties, determining soil structure, and environmental analysis. The main goal of this research is to evaluate the grain size and shape recognition of soil particles using image processing techniques. In this study, initially, color images of soil grain size were acquired. Then, they were processed using Python programming language and the Scikit-Image library. Finally, for model validation, 17 rice grains and 8 coins were used. The results demonstrated that this method was able to accurately detect the number and shape of these particles. It also performed well in identifying the number and shape of soil particles. Furthermore, when compared to several other software tools in the same field, it provided better results. This approach can be utilized to plot the soil grain size curve, ultimately leading to reduced computational costs and time.

Corn is one of the major crops in Sudan. Disease outbreaks can significantly reduce maize production, causing huge damage. Conventionally, disease diagnosis is made through visual inspection of the damage in fields or through laboratory tests conducted by experts on the affected plant parts of the crop. This process typically requires highly skilled personnel, and it can be time-consuming to complete the necessary tasks. Machine learning methods can be implemented to rapidly and accurately detect disease and reduce the risk of crop failure due to disease outbreaks. This study aimed to use traditional machine learning techniques to detect maize diseases using image processing techniques. A total of 600 images were obtained from the open-source Plant Village dataset for experimentation. In this study, image segmentation was done using K-means clustering, and a total of 4 GLCM texture features and two statistical features were extracted from the images. In this study, four traditional machine learning algorithms were applied to detect diseased maize leaves (common rust and gray leaf spot) and healthy maize leaves. The results showed that all the algorithms performed well in identifying the diseased and healthy leaves, with accuracy rates ranging from 90% to 92.7%. The highest accuracy scores were obtained with support vector machine and artificial neural networks, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Mechanical engineering drawings (MEDs) accompany a product lifecycle from conceptional design to final production. The digitisation of MEDs has become increasingly important due to demands for data authenticity, intellectual property protection, efficient data storage and communication, and compliance with data integrity and security regulations. Unlike CAD-based engineering design software, legacy MEDs are often manually drawn or contain manually labeled specifications on blueprints. A notable gap exists in the automated process pipeline of modern Computer-Aided Tolerance (CAT) software, particularly in integrating Geometrical Tolerance Specification Callouts (GTSC) on MEDs. This study proposes an integrated model based on digital image processing and deep learning, which combines character (symbol, text and number) localization, segmentation, and recognition to intelligently identify and read GTSCs on MEDs. The focus of this work is on image filtering, GTSC block localization and tilt correction, multiple lines and character segmentation, and semantic recognition. Experiment results demonstrate that this innovative technique effectively automates the labor-intensive process of reading and registering GTSC with a precision performance that meets industry benchmarks.

Communication for individuals who are hearing- and speech-impaired, commonly referred to as the deaf and mute community, heavily relies on sign language as their primary mode of expression. This study presents a novel framework leveraging image processing techniques for the detection and recognition of sign language gestures. The developed software offers promising avenues for enhancing comprehension of Sign Language, with potential applications in educational settings, public spaces, and interpersonal interactions. The proposed method streamlines the recognition process of sign language, employing deep learning algorithms for the accurate prediction of signs. The system operates by processing input images containing signs through a convolutional neural network, encompassing stages such as pre-processing, feature extraction, model training, testing, and sign-to-text conversion. Crucially, the system's output provides text-based descriptions of the sign in the input image and notably integrates voice output for enhanced accessibility and communication. This multifaceted approach contributes towards bridging communication barriers between individuals with disabilities and those without, promoting inclusivity and understanding in diverse social contexts.

ABSTRACT Time-lapse microscopy offers a powerful approach for analyzing cellular activity. In particular, this technique is valuable for assessing the behavior of bacterial populations, which can exhibit growth and intercellular interactions in a monolayer. Such time-lapse imaging typically generates large quantities of data, limiting the options for manual investigation. Several image-processing software packages have been developed to facilitate analysis. It can thus be a challenge to identify the software package best suited to a particular research goal. Here, we compare four software packages that support the analysis of 2D time-lapse images of cellular populations: CellProfiler, SuperSegger-Omnipose, DeLTA, and FAST. We compare their performance against benchmarked results on time-lapse observations of Escherichia coli populations. Performance varies across the packages, with each of the four outperforming the others in at least one aspect of the analysis. Not surprisingly, the packages that have been in development for longer showed the strongest performance. We found that deep learning-based approaches to object segmentation outperformed traditional approaches, but the opposite was true for frame-to-frame object tracking. We offer these comparisons, together with insight into usability, computational efficiency, and feature availability, as a guide to researchers seeking image-processing solutions.IMPORTANCETime-lapse microscopy provides a detailed window into the world of bacterial behavior. However, the vast amount of data produced by these techniques is difficult to analyze manually. We have analyzed four software tools designed to process such data and compared their performance, using populations of commonly studied bacterial species as our test subjects. Our findings offer a roadmap to scientists, helping them choose the right tool for their research. This comparison bridges a gap between microbiology and computational analysis, streamlining research efforts.

In coffee processing, there are several important stages, one of which is roasting. The roasting process is an important determinant of coffee quality. Determination of coffee quality can be done using digital image processing methods to produce parameters and quality classifications precisely, make images of better quality so that photos and moving images can be easily understood. This analysis uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) for the identification, evaluation, and interpretation of all available research results on the topics discussed. The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the main quality parameters and the best digital image processing methods used in classifying the quality of roasted coffee beans. From the results of the analysis of 31 journals, it is known that the parameters for evaluating the quality of roasted coffee are color parameters, texture parameters, and shape parameters. The color parameters consist of Red Green Blue (RGB), Grayscale, Hue Saturation Intensity (HSI), and L*a*b* features. The texture parameters consist of energy, entropy, homogeneity, and contrast. As for the feature shape parameters, they are area, circumference, diameter, and percentage of roundness. Results of the analysis show that the main parameter that plays an important role in assessing the quality of roasting coffee is the color parameter. This can be seen from the function of the color parameter in quality identification based on the image of the roasted coffee beans. The quality parameters used are image capture, image resolution, training data, testing data, iterations, and accuracy values. In addition, the resulting image processing methods used for quality classification include Backpropagation (BP), Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ), and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). Based on results of the analysis, the best method for classifying the quality of roasting results is Backpropagation, and it is known that the accuracy value of this method has a high range of values.

Digital pathology and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) models have revolutionized histopathology, opening new opportunities. With the increasing availability of whole-slide images (WSIs), demand is growing for efficient retrieval, processing, and analysis of relevant images from vast biomedical archives. However, processing WSIs presents challenges due to their large size and content complexity. Full computer digestion of WSIs is impractical, and processing all patches individually is prohibitively expensive. In this article, we propose an unsupervised patching algorithm, Sequential Patching Lattice for Image Classification and Enquiry (SPLICE). This novel approach condenses a histopathology WSI into a compact set of representative patches, forming a collage of WSI while minimizing redundancy. SPLICE prioritizes patch quality and uniqueness by sequentially analyzing a WSI and selecting nonredundant representative features. In search and match applications, SPLICE showed improved accuracy, reduced computation time, and storage requirements compared with existing state-of-the-art methods. As an unsupervised method, SPLICE effectively reduced storage requirements for representing tissue images by 50%. This reduction can enable numerous algorithms in computational pathology to operate much more efficiently, paving the way for accelerated adoption of digital pathology., Competing Interests: Disclosure Statement None declared., (Copyright © 2024 American Society for Investigative Pathology.

Droplet microfluidics-based single-cell encapsulation is a critical technology that enables large-scale parallel single-cell analysis by capturing and processing thousands of individual cells. As the efficiency of passive single-cell encapsulation is limited by Poisson distribution, active single-cell encapsulation has been developed to theoretically ensure that each droplet contains one cell. However, existing active single-cell encapsulation technologies still face issues related to fluorescence labeling and low throughput. Here, we present an active single-cell encapsulation technique by using microvalve-based drop-on-demand technology and real-time image processing to encapsulate single cells with high throughput in a label-free manner. Our experiments demonstrated that the single-cell encapsulation system can encapsulate individual polystyrene beads with 96.3 % efficiency and HeLa cells with 94.9 % efficiency. The flow speed of cells in this system can reach 150 mm/s, resulting in a corresponding theoretical encapsulation throughput of 150 Hz. This technology has significant potential in various biomedical applications, including single-cell omics, secretion detection, and drug screening., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier B.V.

Introduction: In recent decades, numerous large survey projects have been initiated to enhance our understanding of the cosmos. Among these, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) stands out as a flagship project of the Stage IV cosmology imaging surveys, offering an open-source framework for data management and processing adaptable to various instruments. Methods: In this paper, we introduce the 'obs_mccd' software package, designed to serve as a bridge linking raw data from generic mosaic-CCD instruments to the LSST data management framework. The package also facilitates the deployment of tailored configurations to the pipeline middleware. To validate our data processing pipeline, we processed a batch of realistic data from a commissioning wide-field telescope. Results: We established a prototype of the quality control (QC) system capable of assessing image quality parameters such as PSF size, ellipticity, and astrometric calibration. Our findings indicate that using a fifth-order polynomial for astrometric calibration effectively characterizes geometric distortion, achieving a median average geometric distortion residual of 0.011 pixel. Discussion: When comparing the performance of our pipeline to our inhouse pipeline applied to the same dataset, we observed that our new 'obs_mccd' pipeline offers improved precision, reducing the median average geometric distortion residual from 0.016 pixel to 0.011 pixel. This enhancement in performance underscores the benefits of the obs_mccd package in managing and processing data from wide-field surveys, and it opens up new avenues for scientific exploration with smaller, flexible survey systems complementing the LSST.

Abstract We establish a sample‐ and data‐processing pipeline that allows for high‐throughput optical microscope measurement of porous films, provided they are sufficiently optically scattering. Here, self‐limiting electrospray deposition (SLED) is used to manufacture scattering films of different morphologies. This technique compensates for the scattering of the films through background subtraction of the reflection image with the transmission image. This process is implemented through a combination of an ImageJ and MATLAB data pipeline; the Canny edge‐detector is used as the image‐processing algorithm to identify the boundaries of the film. This process is verified against manually measured images; a comparative study between cross‐sectional scanning electron microscopy (where scattering effects are diminished) and optical microscopy also verifies that our optical microscopy technique can be used to consistently, non‐destructively measure film thickness regardless of film morphology. In addition, this technique can be used in combination with dense film measurements to measure film porosity.

Generation of hidden attractor with complicated phase portrait in chaotic system with no equilibrium has presented a new research focus in the past decade. However, the existing approaches usually follow the rule that you reap what you sow, i.e., taking an no-equilibrium chaotic system as the seed. In this paper, a novel approach to the generation of no-equilibrium multi-fold hidden attractors is presented. The offset boosting and the operation of complex number are applied to several cases, including the seed chaotic systems with no equilibrium, with single unstable node, or with single stable node-focus. In specific, the offset boosting shifts the single non-zero equilibrium to the origin, then the operation of complex number rules out the equilibrium in the folded system and generates multi-fold trajectories. The highlight is that the proposed approach is not limited to the no-equilibrium seed system, but also applicable for different types of single-equilibrium seed systems, even the seed system with a single line of equilibrium. The detailed numerical simulations and experiments confirmed the feasibility of the proposed approach. Finally, an image encryption algorithm and its practical microcontroller-based implementation are presented to support the potential application. • Systematic approach for folding trajectory of chaotic system. • New multi-fold chaotic hidden attractors with no equilibrium. • New chaos-based encryption algorithm for image security. • Dynamic memory scheme for microcontroller implementation.

In view of the reduced power generation efficiency caused by ash or dirt on the surface of photovoltaic panels, and the problems of heavy workload and low efficiency faced by manual detection, this study proposes a method to detect dust or dust on the surface of photovoltaic cells with the help of image processing technology to timely eliminate hidden dangers and improve power generation efficiency.This paper introduces image processing methods based on mathematical morphology, such as image enhancement, image sharpening, image filtering and image closing operation, which makes the image better highlight the target to be recognized. At the same time, it also solves the problem of uneven image binarization caused by uneven illumination in the process of image acquisition. By using the image histogram equalization, the gray level concentration area of the original image is opened or the gray level is evenly distributed, so that the dynamic range of the pixel gray level is increased, so that the image contrast or contrast is increased, the image details are clear, to achieve the purpose of enhancement. When identifying the target area, the method of calculating the proportion of the dirt area to the whole image area is adopted, and the ratio exceeding a certain threshold is judged as a fault. In addition, the improved A* path planning algorithm is adopted in this study, which greatly improves the efficiency of the unmanned aerial vehicle detection of photovoltaic cell dirt, saves time and resources, reduces operation and maintenance costs, and improves the operation and maintenance level of photovoltaic units.

This paper proposes a new method for recognizing, extracting, and processing Phase-Resolved Partial Discharge (PRPD) patterns from two-dimensional plots to identify specific defect types affecting electrical equipment without human intervention while retaining the principals that make PRPD analysis an effective diagnostic technique. The proposed method does not rely on training complex deep learning algorithms which demand substantial computational resources and extensive datasets that can pose significant hurdles for the application of on-line partial discharge monitoring. Instead, the developed Cosine Cluster Net (CCNet) model, which is an image processing pipeline, can extract and process patterns from any two-dimensional PRPD plot before employing the cosine similarity function to measure the likeness of the patterns to predefined templates of known defect types. The PRPD pattern recognition capabilities of the model were tested using several manually classified PRPD images available in the existing literature. The model consistently produced similarity scores that identified the same defect type as the one from the manual classification. The successful defect type reporting from the initial trials of the CCNet model together with the speed of the identification, which typically does not exceed four seconds, indicates potential for real-time applications.

Logistic regression, random forest, k nearest neighbors, and support vector machines were trained with split ratios ranging from 60:40 to 95:05. Findings reveal significant variations in accuracies across these ratios, emphasizing the critical need to strike a balance to avoid overfitting or underfitting. The study underscores the importance of selecting an optimal train-test split ratio that considers tradeoffs such as model performance metrics, statistical measures, and resource constraints. Ultimately, these insights contribute to a deeper understanding of how ratio selection impacts the effectiveness and reliability of machine learning applications across diverse fields.

Disease recognition has been revolutionized by autonomous systems in the rapidly developing field of medical technology. A crucial aspect of diagnosis involves the visual assessment and enumeration of white blood cells in microscopic peripheral blood smears. This practice yields invaluable insights into a patient’s health, enabling the identification of conditions of blood malignancies such as leukemia. Early identification of leukemia subtypes is paramount for tailoring appropriate therapeutic interventions and enhancing patient survival rates. However, traditional diagnostic techniques, which depend on visual assessment, are arbitrary, laborious, and prone to errors. The advent of ML technologies offers a promising avenue for more accurate and efficient leukemia classification. In this study, we introduced a novel approach to leukemia classification by integrating advanced image processing, diverse dataset utilization, and sophisticated feature extraction techniques, coupled with the development of TL models. Focused on improving accuracy of previous studies, our approach utilized Kaggle datasets for binary and multiclass classifications. Extensive image processing involved a novel LoGMH method, complemented by diverse augmentation techniques. Feature extraction employed DCNN, with subsequent utilization of extracted features to train various ML and TL models. Rigorous evaluation using traditional metrics revealed Inception-ResNet’s superior performance, surpassing other models with F1 scores of 96.07% and 95.89% for binary and multiclass classification, respectively. Our results notably surpass previous research, particularly in cases involving a higher number of classes. These findings promise to influence clinical decision support systems, guide future research, and potentially revolutionize cancer diagnostics beyond leukemia, impacting broader medical imaging and oncology domains.

Abstract Intelligent electrospun pH indicators were produced from bio‐nanocomposite kafirin‐polyethylene oxide (PEO) containing red beetroot extract. The aim was to evaluate the performance and stability of the electrospun pH indicators via image processing. Red beetroot extract was added to a mixture of kafirin and PEO at various concentrations. The mixtures were electrospun, and infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy confirmed the presence of kafirin, PEO, and red beetroot extract in the resulting pH indicator. The results showed that the pH indicators had high stability and reversibility at different temperatures, pHs, and environmental conditions. The results showed that the color of the indicators was significantly reversible after pH changes, with highly desirable reversibility observed at pH values of 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, and 10. The findings proved that the red beetroot extract loaded bio‐nanocomposite pH indicator accompanied by evaluation of color characteristics through image processing technique, can serve as a time‐efficient, accurate tool for detecting and tracking pH changes caused by food spoilage.

The objective of the research was to develop an image processing algorithm for analyzing the color change of leafy green salad using Green Oak as a sample. The research was divided into two parts. The initial step was to construct an image acquisition system. To provide uniform light intensity across the samples, two D65 lamps were mounted 30 cm above the samples at a 45° angle to the sample plane. The second step was to develop an image processing algorithm to analyze the color change of Green Oak salad. For analysis, the algorithm employs the H (hue angle) value. In the image of Green Oak salad, H can be indicated browning. The browning zone is indicated by a H value of 35° to 79°, and the regular color of Green Oak salad is indicated by a H value of 80° to 135°. An experiment with Green Oak salad vegetables stored at 5°, 10°, and 15° revealed that the amount of brown area in the salad vegetables was greater than 9% of the total area. Green Oak salad vegetables are irregular quality, exceeding acceptable limits.
