The knowledge and understanding of the technology of quantum computers and their superiority over classical computers are still insufficient or uncertain for many communities of researchers, manufacturers, investors and the general public. For this reason, we try in this article to present and explain some of the basic concepts of quantum computers. We explain how…

Waste is currently a serious problem often found in rural areas, rural areas, and even industrial areas. Waste is a side effect of activities carried out by humans to meet social or industrial needs. Increasing human productivity will also increase the amount of waste produced. To overcome this, a sorting management system is needed. Good…

In this work we propose an algorithm for Peruvian counterfeit banknotes detection. Our algorithm operates in banknotes with 50, 100 and 200 soles denominations that were manufactured from 2009 onwards. This algorithm offers an automatic diagnosis based on digital image processing and support vector machines (SVM). Current Peruvian counterfeit detection systems are specially designed to…

With the aim of preventing hydro-geological risks and overcoming the problems of current rain gauges, this paper proposes a low-complexity and cost-effective video rain gauge. In particular, in this paper the authors propose a new approach to rainfall classification based on image processing and video matching process employing convolutional neural networks (CNN). The system consists…

In Peru, approximately since 2013, a necessary change has begun in the importance given to research, science, technology, and technological innovation. Likewise, in 2014, a new University Law was approved that among other aspects also promotes research production in universities. Against this context, the universities begin to improve with more emphasis activities related to research.…

The Braille language system or also known as the language for the blind people was created so that these people can understand the vocabulary words depending on the country in which they are located, this system is based on points in which the points raised or also known as the largest points depending on their…

Over the years, alternative medicine has carried out numerous systematic studies related to the ophthalmological field, specifically the eye. Studies that propose as support of analysis to the Iridology, which studies the alterations of the iris in correspondence with the organs of the human body. Thus, it presents the opportunity to investigate neuronal diseases related…

This paper deals with the theoretical aspect of bat echolocation and bionics, and image processing-based target recognition and identification methods. The state estimation methods utilizing the linear rustic filters such as fixed gain and Kalman filters are studied and implemented for echolocation bionics for estimating the LOS distance. A complete mathematical modeling and simulation of…

Although there are many research domains with very good software support and workflow automation, there are even more which do not have it: software development is too expensive to create domain specific applications for every research topic. This leaves many domain experts to work for example with general purpose image processing and statistics tools. Many…

Owing to the recent development of AI technology, various studies on computer-aided diagnosis systems for CT image interpretation are being conducted. In particular, studies on the detection of lung cancer which is leading the death rate are being conducted in image processing and artificial intelligence fields. In this study, to improve the anatomical interpretation ability…

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) was widely used for treating tumors non-invasively. In this treatment, ultrasound is focused on the target volume inside the human body to ablate cancerous tissues and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is mainly used to grasp the target position and to measure the temperature distributions around the target. However, MRI is…

Recently, digital image forgery detection is an emergent and important area of image processing. Digital image plays a vital role in providing evidence for any unusual incident. However, the image forgery my hide evidence and prevents the detection of such criminal cases due to advancement in image processing and availability of sophisticated software tamper of…

Most buildings are equipped with various types of sensors to detect smoke in the event of a fire, though most are located internally. Practically, smoke has to reach the sensor in order for the sensor to react. The limitations of these sensors are their inability to respond in the early stages of a fire, and…

Dry Eye Disease (DED) is one of the commonly occurring chronic disease today, affecting the vision of eye. It causes severe discomfort in eye, visual disturbance and blurred vision impacting the quality of life of patients. Due to recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and rapid progress of analytics techniques, several image modality based computerized…

This paper proposes an algorithm aimed at quantifying the expression of KI-67 protein in digital images of breast biopsy tissue samples obtained through an optical microscope. The algorithm allows to obtain a report on the quantity of non-proliferating and proliferating cells through the detection and quantification of KI-67. The sample analysis via software aims to…

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an imaging device mounted on a moving platform. Its ability to identify a weak target from a nearby strong one depends upon the peak side lobe ratio (PSLR). This paper is intended to ameliorate such important ratio through the use of windowing of the transmitted pulse and studying the noise…

Image stitching is a process of creating a panoramic image by combining multiple images that have overlapping regions of the same scene. It is a challenging topic in image processing, multimedia, and medical applications. The proposed system can be applied in medical applications for scoliosis operations and other long limb operations. The problem of the…

Low contrast images degrade the performance of image processing system. To solve the issue, plenty of image enhancement methods have been proposed. But the methods work properly on the fixed environment or specific images. The methods dependent on fixed image conditions cannot perform image enhancement properly and perspective of smart device users, algorithms including iterative…

Currently, the quality and quantity of product must be inspected before transporting. Currently the popular unsealing box product inspecting is performed by weighing the box where the errors occur according to the tolerance of the weighting machine and tolerance weight of the product. On the other hand, the quantity of product can be inspected automatically…

Globally, road transportation has become one of the most reliable means of moving goods and services from one place to the other. It has contributed immensely to the standard of living and modern civilization. However, this means of transportation is characterised by some issues which are poised to be harmful to the human population if…

The Japanese writing system is unique due to the number of characters employed and the methods used to write words. It consists of three different ’alphabets’, which may result in the methods used to process Latin script not being sufficient to obtain satisfactory results when attempting to apply them to a recognition of the Japanese…
