Abstract The recent advancements in vision technology have had a significant impact on our ability to identify multiple objects and understand complex scenes. Various technologies, such as augmented reality-driven scene integration, robotic navigation, autonomous driving, and guided tour systems, heavily rely on this type of scene comprehension. This paper presents a novel segmentation approach based on the UNet network model, aimed at recognizing multiple objects within an image. The methodology begins with the acquisition and preprocessing of the image, followed by segmentation using the fine-tuned UNet architecture. Afterward, we use an annotation tool to accurately label… More >

Abstract Road traffic monitoring is an imperative topic widely discussed among researchers. Systems used to monitor traffic frequently rely on cameras mounted on bridges or roadsides. However, aerial images provide the flexibility to use mobile platforms to detect the location and motion of the vehicle over a larger area. To this end, different models have shown the ability to recognize and track vehicles. However, these methods are not mature enough to produce accurate results in complex road scenes. Therefore, this paper presents an algorithm that combines state-of-the-art techniques for identifying and tracking vehicles in conjunction with… More >

Abstract With the recent boom in the corpus size of sentiment analysis tasks, automatic annotation is poised to be a necessary alternative to manual annotation for generating ground truth dataset labels. This article aims to investigate and validate the performance of two widely used lexicon-based automatic annotation approaches, TextBlob and Valence Aware Dictionary and Sentiment Reasoner (VADER), by comparing them with manual annotation. The dataset of 5402 Arabic tweets was annotated manually, containing 3124 positive tweets, 1463 negative tweets, and 815 neutral tweets. The tweets were translated into English so that TextBlob and VADER could be More >

Abstract The last decade shows an explosion of using social media, which raises several challenges related to the security of personal files including images. These challenges include modifying, illegal copying, identity fraud, copyright protection and ownership of images. Traditional digital watermarking techniques embed digital information inside another digital information without affecting the visual quality for security purposes. In this paper, we propose a hybrid digital watermarking and image processing approach to improve the image security level. Specifically, variants of the widely used Least-Significant Bit (LSB) watermarking technique are merged with a blob detection algorithm to embed More >
