Abstract

The most common technology used in targeted advertising is facial recognition and vehicle recognition. Even though there are existing systems serving for the targeting purposes, most propose limited functionalities and the system performance is normally unknown. This paper presents an intelligent targeted advertising system with multiple functionalities, namely facial recognition for gender and age, vehicle recognition, and multiple object detection. The main purpose is to improve the effectiveness of outdoor advertising through biometrics approaches and machine learning technology. Machine learning algorithms are implemented for higher recognition accuracy and hence achieved better targeted advertising effect.

Abstract

With the rapidly increasing crime rate in recent years, community safety issues aroused a wide concern among public community. Various security technologies had been invented and carried out, for example password door lock, alarm system, and closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs). Although the installation of CCTVs is common in most premises, they require extensive man power to manually monitor the videos. Moreover, the reliability of human operator greatly deteriorates when they are in fatigue condition. In view of this, our project aims to develop an automated computer vision based surveillance system. Unlike ordinary CCTV system that requires human operator to manually observe and detect intruder, a computer vision based surveillance system automatically monitor the security of premises and trigger actions once an intrusion is detected. Basically, it is a simple surveillance camera system that will be setup at the entrance of the house. The reliability is being enhanced by applying the motion detection and face recognition algorithm, using histogram of oriented gradients that could detect the existence of people at the main entrance and try to validate the user. Apart from recognizing the user, the propose system also support mobile interaction whereby user can monitor the camera, activate alarm, and even received notification when a stranger was being detected at the entrance of the house. By including such functionalities, proposed system had highly surpassed the existing surveillance system by not only support monitoring, but also try to recognize the people and inform the user at the exact moment when stranger detected, so that user could take immediate action about it, for example activating the alarm or report to police. The project was executed with expected outcome and objectives had been accomplished.

Abstract

Halal is the term used for permissible food according to Islamic dietary law. Indicators such as Halal logo have been used to facilitate Muslims in identifying Halal food. In Malaysia, the Department of Islamic Development (JAKIM) has introduced a standard Halal logo for locally manufactured products and currently recognizes 67 Islamic bodies in 41 countries around the world as certification bodies for products imported into Malaysia. Therefore, a more practical way is required to assist Muslims in recognizing various forms of Halal logos on food packaging. A neural network (NN) approach is proposed to recognize authentic and recognized Halal logo on imported products. A dataset of available and recognized Halal logo images worldwide will be created for this purpose. The dataset will be used to train and test the performance of the learning algorithm to recognize logo of recognized foreign bodies by JAKIM. The approach is expected to complement current facilities for verification using Short Messaging Services (SMS) and web portal. The approach is assumed to be more efficient and accurate for Halal logo verification which eventually could win the trust of Halal product consumers and support the Halal industry in Malaysia.

Abstract

The spectacular growth of wearable sensors has provided a key contribution to the field of human activity recognition. Due to its effective and versatile usage and application in various fields such as smart homes and medical areas, human activity recognition has always been an appealing research topic in artificial intelligence. From this perspective, there are a lot of existing works that make use of accelerometer and gyroscope sensor data for recognizing human activities. This paper presents a comparative study of ensemble learning methods for human activity recognition. The methods include random forest, adaptive boosting, gradient boosting, extreme gradient boosting, and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM). Among the ensemble learning methods in comparison, light gradient boosting machine and random forest demonstrate the best performance. The experimental results revealed that light gradient boosting machine yields the highest accuracy of 94.50% on UCI-HAR dataset and 100% on single accelerometer dataset while random forest records the highest accuracy of 93.41% on motion sense dataset.

Abstract

Speech emotion recognition aims to identify the emotion expressed in the speech by analyzing the audio signals. In this work, data augmentation is first performed on the audio samples to increase the number of samples for better model learning. The audio samples are comprehensively encoded as the frequency and temporal domain features. In the classification, a light gradient boosting machine is leveraged. The hyperparameter tuning of the light gradient boosting machine is performed to determine the optimal hyperparameter settings. As the speech emotion recognition datasets are imbalanced, the class weights are regulated to be inversely proportional to the sample distribution where minority classes are assigned higher class weights. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outshines the state-of-the-art methods with 84.91% accuracy on the emo-DB dataset, 67.72% on the Ryerson audio-visual database of emotional speech and song (RAVDESS) dataset, and 62.94% on the interactive emotional dyadic motion capture (IEMOCAP) dataset.

Abstract

Mesh-based 3-dimensional (3D) shape generation from a 2-dimensional (2D) image using a convolution neural network (CNN) framework is an open problem in the computer graphics and vision domains. Most existing CNN-based frameworks lack robust algorithms that can scale well without combining different shape parts. Also, most CNN-based algorithms lack suitable 3D data representations that can fit into CNN without modification(s) to produce high-quality 3D shapes. This paper presents an approach that integrates a variational autoencoder (VAE) and a generative adversarial network (GAN) called 3 dimensional variational autoencoder signed distance function generative adversarial network (3D-VAE-SDFGAN) to create a 3D shape from a 2D image that considerably improves scalability and visual quality. The proposed method only feeds a single 2D image into the network to produce a mesh-based 3D shape. The network encodes a 2D image of the 3D object into the latent representations, and implicit surface representations of 3D objects corresponding to those 2D images are subsequently generated. Hence, a signed distance function (SDF) is proposed to maintain object inside-outside information in the implicit surface representation. Polygon mesh surfaces are then produced using the marching cubes algorithm. The ShapeNet dataset was used in the experiments to evaluate the proposed 3D-VAE-SDFGAN. The experimental results show that 3D-VAE-SDFGAN outperforms other state-of-the-art models.
