Periodic inspections of the railroad tracks and their components are necessary to ensure safe transportation. Manual inspections involve the railroad personnel to either inspect the tracks by walk or ride a hi-rail vehicle at comparable speeds. However, manual operations cannot be carried out regularly in remote areas or terrorist affected areas. T...

The Kannada Numeral system is unique to Kannada language. In our knowledge very little work has been previously attempted towards the recognition of Kannada handwritten numerals. Therefore, this chapter proposes a framework to correctly recognise Kannada handwritten numerals. The proposed KannadaRes-NeXt framework is based on deep residual network...

In this article a framework regarding correct and efficient identification of Kannada handwritten numerals has been proposed. The EffKannadaRes-NeXt model is based on deep residual network ResNeXt and takes binary as well as gray-scale representations of numeral images into consideration. The study deals with handling numeral images from MNIST-size...

Railroad track health monitoring is a challenging yet important task as it affects the safety of railroad systems. Railroad track extraction presents an immediate advantage during railroad inspections in an efficient and cost-effective manner. At present, human inspectors, inspection trains, and rail-mounted vehicles equipped with cameras are preva...

Maintenance of railroad track safety is of utmost importance as derailment accidents cause significant loss to life and property. Inspection of railroad tracks and their components is necessary in order to ensure security and well-being of goods as well as humans. Fishplate is an essential component in the railroad track environment hence, periodic...

Plant height is beneficial in defence-related applications during the movement of troops as terrain information is required in advance. This terrain information is of utmost importance to obtain knowledge about possible paths especially in unexplored areas. This information facilitates safe movement of troops. While exploring an unexplored area, ve...

Railway is one of the most used means of transportation. For the railway system to operate flawlessly constant monitoring and inspection of railway tracks is required. Currently railway track inspection and monitoring is done manually which is both time consuming and inaccurate. The objective is to device a fast ,efficient and economic way to inspe...

Monument recognition is a challenging problem in the domain of image classification due to huge variations in the architecture of different monuments. Different orientations of the structure play an important role in the recognition of the monuments in their images. The paper proposes an approach for classification of various monuments based o...

Communication is an important part of our day to day lives. It is an essential means of conveying our emotions through gestures as well as verbally. However, communication and recognition of gestures becomes a problem for humans with speaking and hearing impairment. For this very purpose sign language is used. Indian Sign Language (ISL) is resource...

This thesis describes the technique of evolutionary design which is aimed at designing an interconnection network. An Interconnection network is the communication path used in any digital subsystem and it is through them that the data is transferred between any two nodes. There is always willingness for obtaining shortest path between any source-de...
