Dust concentration vision measurement based on moment of inertia in gray level-rank co-occurrence matrixZhiwen Luo, Guohui Li, Junfeng Du et al.
To improve the accuracy of existing dust concentration measurements, a dust concentration measurement based on Moment of inertia in Gray level-Rank Co-occurrence Matrix (GRCM), which is from the dust image sample measured by a machine vision system is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a Polynomial computational model between dust Concentration and Moment of inertia (PCM) is established by experimental methods and fitting methods. Then computing methods for GRCM and its Moment of inertia are constructed by theoretical and mathematical analysis methods. And then developing an on-line dust concentration vision measurement experimental system, the cement dust concentration measurement in a cement production workshop is taken as a practice example with the system and the PCM measurement. The results show that measurement error is within 9%, and the measurement range is 0.5-1000 mg/m3. Finally, comparing with the filter membrane weighing measurement, light scattering measurement and laser measurement, the proposed PCM measurement has advantages on error and cost, which can be provided a valuable reference for the dust concentration vision measurements.

Memory Matters: Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network for Scene Text RecognitionGuo Qiang, Tu Dan, Li Guohui et al.
Text recognition in natural scene is a challenging problem due to the many factors affecting text appearance. In this paper, we presents a method that directly transcribes scene text images to text without needing of sophisticated character segmentation. We leverage recent advances of deep neural networks to model the appearance of scene text images with temporal dynamics. Specifically, we integrates convolutional neural network (CNN) and recurrent neural network (RNN) which is motivated by observing the complementary modeling capabilities of the two models. The main contribution of this work is investigating how temporal memory helps in an segmentation free fashion for this specific problem. By using long short-term memory (LSTM) blocks as hidden units, our model can retain long-term memory compared with HMMs which only maintain short-term state dependences. We conduct experiments on Street View House Number dataset containing highly variable number images. The results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over traditional HMM based methods.
