Recognition and Classification of Clothing Pattern and Color
Abstract: Choosing clothes with complex patterns and colors is a challenging task for visually impaired and blind people. The automatic clothing pattern and color recognition is also a challenging problem due to the large intra-class variation, rotation, scaling and illumination. Here, we recognize clothing patterns in four categories (plaid, striped, pattern-less, and irregular), and identify 11 clothing colors (red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, pink, black, grey, and white). The …

A Survey on Various Image De-noising Methods
Abstract: Image de-noising is a classical yet fundamental problem in low level vision, as well as an ideal test bed to evaluate various statistical image modeling methods. The restoration of a blurry or noisy image is commonly performed with a maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) estimator, which maximizes a posterior probability to reconstruct a clean image from a degraded image. A MAP estimator, when used with a sparse gradient image prior, …
