Breast cancer is the most common cause of death for women worldwide. Thus, ability artificial intelligence systems to detect possible breast very important. In this paper, an ensemble classification mechanism proposed based on a majority voting mechanism. First, performance different state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms were evaluated Wisconsin Cancer Dataset (WBCD). The three best classifiers then selected their F3 score. score used emphasize importance false negatives (recall) in...

Human activity recognition has attracted the attention of researchers around world. This is an interesting problem that can be addressed in different ways. Many approaches have been presented during last years. These applications present solutions to recognize kinds activities such as if person walking, running, jumping, jogging, or falling, among others. Amongst all these activities, fall detection special importance because it a common dangerous event for people ages with more negative...

An automatic monitoring system is proposed in this paper for detecting overcrowding conditions the platforms of underground train services. Whenever detected, will notify station operators to take appropriate actions prevent accidents, such as people falling off or being pushed onto tracks. The designed use existing closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras acquiring images platforms. In order focus on passengers platform, background subtraction and update techniques are used. addition, due...

In this study, a new multi‐view human action recognition approach is proposed by exploiting low‐dimensional motion information of actions. Before feature extraction, pre‐processing steps are performed to remove noise from silhouettes, incurred due imperfect, but realistic segmentation. Two‐dimensional templates based on history image (MHI) computed for each view/action video. Histograms oriented gradients (HOGs) used as an efficient description the MHIs which classified using nearest...
