Flower Categorization using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
arXiv:1708.03763
We have developed a deep learning network for classification of different flowers. For this, we have used Visual Geometry Group's 102 category flower dataset having 8189 images of 102 different flowers from University of Oxford. The method is basically divided into two parts; Image segmentation and classification. We have compared the performance of two different Convolutional Neural Network architectures GoogLeNet and AlexNet for classification purpose. By keeping the hyper parameters same for…
We have developed a deep learning network for classification of different flowers. For this, we have used Visual Geometry Group's 102 category flower dataset having 8189 images of 102 different flowers from University of Oxford. The method is basically divided into two parts; Image segmentation and classification. We have compared the performance of two different Convolutional Neural Network architectures GoogLeNet and AlexNet for classification purpose. By keeping the hyper parameters same for both architectures, we have found that the top 1 and top 5 accuracies of GoogLeNet are 47.15% and 69.17% respectively whereas the top 1 and top 5 accuracies of AlexNet are 43.39% and 68.68% respectively. These results are extremely good when compared to random classification accuracy of 0.98%. This method for classification of flowers can be implemented in real time applications and can be used to help botanists for their research as well as camping enthusiasts.

Human Detection and Tracking for Video Surveillance A Cognitive Science Approach
arXiv
With crimes on the rise all around the world, video surveillance is becoming more important day by day. Due to the lack of human resources to monitor this increasing number of cameras manually new computer vision algorithms to perform lower and higher level tasks are being developed. We have developed a new method incorporating the most acclaimed Histograms of Oriented Gradients the theory of Visual Saliency and the saliency prediction model Deep Multi Level Network to detect human beings in…
With crimes on the rise all around the world, video surveillance is becoming more important day by day. Due to the lack of human resources to monitor this increasing number of cameras manually new computer vision algorithms to perform lower and higher level tasks are being developed. We have developed a new method incorporating the most acclaimed Histograms of Oriented Gradients the theory of Visual Saliency and the saliency prediction model Deep Multi Level Network to detect human beings in video sequences. Furthermore we implemented the k Means algorithm to cluster the HOG feature vectors of the positively detected windows and determined the path followed by a person in the video. We achieved a detection precision of 83.11% and a recall of 41.27%. We obtained these results 76.866 times faster than classification on normal images.

Object Detection on Synthetic data using Convolutional Nueral Networks
- Present
Generally, the problem with machine learning is that it needs a lot of data. So we are making Synthetic data and then apply Convolutional Nueral Networks to it. Using transfer learning, we applied this to real data set.
