The Universitat Jaume I in Castelló, carries out a research
on pattern recognition, a technique that gets information
through images to classify or extract patterns and to apply them
on processes of quality control, biometrics and medical diagnostics.
-In the Institute of New Imaging Technologies
we have worked on projects on pattern recognition.
The most important one has been on oranges,
where we look for defects on the surface of a orange
for its subsequent classification.
We roll the orange and make eight pictures.
With a segmentation we appreciate
the number of defects of the orange.
Our program is integrated into a computer, which is connected
to a machine which does not has screen and it classifies the oranges.
It sends it to a central computer that classifies tham
and then it calculates statistics.
This is the line simulation of the orange way
by using balls that move across the screen
and represent the fruits.
In the field of biometrics we do works that analyse
the way of walking that can then be applied
on video surveillance and clinical and psychological analysis.
-I work in a video surveillance system
where we do a follow-up of people who pass
to try to identify them.
We submit them to two phases: one of training,
where the system learns to recognize people
and another test, where the system identifies if the person
has already passed through the scene.
Regions are characterized by a significant name and colour.
In this case, the scene is divided into three regions:
grass, sidewalk and "others" and each one is painted
to control the perimetre.
When the subject appears on the scene,
he or she is followed until comes out and it is identified
by the colour of the box in both views.
At the end, when we identify that the subject does not break
any rule, it notifies the program and future situations
may be ignored.
Thus, a new rule will be created
identified interactively.
The main advantage of this process is that distance is not a barrier
to identify the subject, since recognition
can be made from ten metres.
The Institute of New Imaging Technologies
gets funding from the UJI,
as well as from Bancaja projects and national projects.
