Anomaly detection in high-dimensional network data streams: A case study
In this paper, we study the problem of anomaly detection in high-dimensional network streams. We have developed a new technique, called Stream Projected Outlier deTector (SPOT), to deal with the problem of anomaly detection from high-dimensional data streams. We conduct a case study of SPOT in this paper by deploying it on 1999 KDD Intrusion Detection application. Innovative approaches for training data generation, anomaly classification and false positive reduction are proposed in this paper as well. Experimental results demonstrate that SPOT is effective in detecting anomalies from network data streams and outperforms existing anomaly detection methods.

HOS-Miner: A System for Detecting Outlying Subspaces of High-dimensional Data
We identify a new and interesting high-dimensional outlier detection problem in this paper, that is, detecting the subspaces in which given data points are outliers. We call the subspaces in which a data point is an outlier as its Outlying Subspaces. In this paper, we will propose the prototype of a dynamic subspace search system, called HOS-Miner (HOS stands for High-dimensional Outlying Subspaces), that utilizes a sample-based learning process to effectively identify the outlying subspaces of a given point.

A Color Indexing Scheme Using Two-level Clustering Processing for Effective and Efficient Image Retrieval
[Abstract]: In this paper, we present a clustering-based color indexing scheme for effective amd efficient image retrieval, which is essentially an exploration on the application of clustering technique to image retrieval. In our approach, the color features are clustered automatically using a color clustering algorithm twice (called two-level clustering processing) and two color feature summarizations are obtained, e.g. Local Color Centriods (LCCs) and Global Color Centroids (GCCs). Based upon LCCs and GCCs, a three-level R-tree is bulit for indexing database images and performing effecitve and efficient image retrieval. The experiments show that this indexing scheme is effective and efficient in performing image retrieval.

Detecting Projected Outliers in High-Dimensional Data Streams
In this paper, we study the problem of projected outlier detection in high dimensional data streams and propose a new technique, called Stream Projected Ouliter deTector (SPOT), to identify outliers embedded in subspaces. Sparse Subspace Template (SST), a set of subspaces obtained by unsupervised and/or supervised learning processes, is constructed in SPOT to detect projected outliers effectively. Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) is employed as an effective search method for finding outlying subspaces from training data to construct SST. SST is able to carry out online self-evolution in the detection stage to cope with dynamics of data streams. The experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of SPOT in detecting outliers in high-dimensional data streams.

A Novel Approach Using PCA and SVM for Face Detection
Nowadays, face detection and recognition have gained importance in security and information access. In this paper, an efficient method of face detection based on principal components analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM) is proposed. It firsly filter the face potential area using statistical feature which is generated by analyzing local histogram distribution. And then, SVM classifier is used to detect face feature in the test image, SVM has great performance in classification task. PCA is used to reduce dimension of sample data. After PCA transform, the feature vectors, which are used for training SVM classifier, are generated. Our tests in this paper are based on CMU face database. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is encouraging with a successful detection rate.

A new edge-based text verification approach for video
In this paper, we propose a new edge-based text verification approach for video. Based on the investigation of the relation between candidate blocks and their neighbor areas, the proposed approach first detects background edges in candidate blocks, then erases them by an edge tracking technique, and finally the candidate blocks containing too few remaining edges are eliminated as false alarms. Three measures for text detection evaluation in video were used to assess the performance of the proposed text verification approach. Experimental results on 50 broadcast news video clips demonstrate the validity of our approach.

A Hand-Eye Robotic Model for Total Knee Replacement Surgery
This paper presents a hand-eye robotic model for total knee replacement (TKR) surgery. Unlike existent robot assisted TKR surgery, the proposed model is a surgical robot that combines with a movable hand-eye navigation system, which would use the full potential of both computer-assisted systems. Without using CT images and landmark pins in the patient's bones, it can directly measure the mechanical axis with high precision. This system provides a new approach of the minimally invasive surgery. Experiment results show that the proposed model is promising in the future application.

Multimodal Registration using the Discrete Wavelet Frame Transform
Image registration is a critical step in medical image analysis. In this paper, a novel image registration method based on the discrete wavelet frame transform (DWFT) and the sum of absolute distance (SAD) method is proposed. First, the multimodal images are decomposed by DWFT, which is shift-invariant compared to traditional dyadic wavelet transforms. Then the energy maps are computed from the details sub-band images. Finally, genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted to obtain the minimum SAD between the two energy maps. The proposed method is tested on 50 pairs of two-dimensional T1-weighted and T2-weighted modal images. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method can achieve high accuracy in the rigid transformation case

A new calibration model of camera lens distortion
Lens distortion is one of the main factors affecting camera calibration. In this paper, a new model of camera lens distortion is presented, according to which lens distortion is governed by the coefficients of radial distortion and a transform from ideal image plane to real sensor array plane. The transform is determined by two angular parameters describing the pose of the real sensor array plane with respect to the ideal image plane and two linear parameters locating the real sensor array with respect to the optical axis. Experiments show that the new model has about the same correcting effect upon lens distortion as the conventional model including all the radial distortion, decentering distortion and prism distortion. Compared with the conventional model, the new model has fewer parameters to be calibrated and more explicit physical meaning.
