This paper describes a new classification method (DER) based on evidential reasoning to which a series of modifications are added [1]. DER allows including new evidence for the classification process and defines a different decision rule. The evidential reasoning algorithm…

In several applications, the trajectory of an entity, a feature or an object has to be tracked over a sequence of image frames. When the processing is to be performed in real time, there are important constraints leading to the…

This paper presents the Adesso, a computational environment for the development of scientific software. The Adesso environment leverages the reusable software component programming model to support the development and integration of components to several scientific programming platforms. The Adesso system…

Boundary extraction is an important procedure associated with recognition and interpretation tasks in digital image processing and computer vision. Most of the segmentation techniques are based on the detection of the local gradient, and then their application in noisy images…

The identification and classification of seeds are of major
technical and economical importance in the agricultural
industry. To automate these activities, like in ocular
inspection one should consider seed size, shape, color and
texture, which can be obtained from seed…
