The second method was reliance on the seven invariant moment that extracted from Arabic characters the adopted by back propagation neural network for Arabic character recognition. In the first method, the Kohonen neural network has been trained on vertical histogram values for a set of letters(ث، ح ، د، ر، س، ض، ط، غ، ق، ن), and also it has been tested on a set of noisy letters images, and the results were achieved true, and compatible with the previous one. Also, kohonen network has been trained using horizontal histogram for the same group of characters, and the results had lower closeness from the results that obtained with vertical histogram. The results were achieved true 66%. Again, several type of the backpropagation neural network has been trained in seven invariant moment of the Arabic characters(ا، ب ، ح ، ع ، س ، ظ ، ر ، ذ ، ف، ك) and it has been used several types of the training functions that common used with backpropagation neural network. The results were achieved true 75% . So, it is discern previously that depending on vertical histogram values with kohonen neural network gives higher closeness from horizontal histogram vales with kohonen neural network and seven invariant moment with back propagation neural network. In addition, when depending on the two histograms together, it was gives bad results with other neural network as well as kohonen neural network.

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have shown outstanding performance in multi-object detection, especially the Faster R-CNN network. In this study, a new method is proposed for multi-object tracking based on descriptors generated by a neural network that is embedded in the Faster R-CNN. This embedding allows the proposed method to directly output a descriptor for each object detected by the Faster R-CNN, based on the features detected by the Faster R-CNN to detect the object. The use of these features allows the proposed method to output accurate values rapidly, as these features are already computed for the detection and have been able to provide outstanding performance in the detection stage. The descriptors that are collected from the proposed method are then clustered into a number of clusters equal to the number of objects detected in the first frame of the video. Then, for further frames, the number of clusters is increased until the distance between the centroid of the newly created cluster and the nearest centroid is less than the average distance among the centroids. Newly added clusters are considered for new objects, whereas older ones are kept in case the object reappears in the video. The proposed method is evaluated using the UA-DETRAC (University at Albany Detection and Tracking) dataset and has been able to achieve 64.8% MOTA and 83.6% MOTP, with a processing speed of 127.3 frames per second.

In this research, image transformation was used to encode gray or color images by adopting parameters elected from contourlet transformations for image. The color images are acquired into the algorithm, to be converted into three slices (the main colors of the image), to be disassembled into their coefficients through contourlet transformations and then some high frequencies in addition to the low frequency are elected in order to reconstruct the image again. The election of low frequencies with a small portion of the high frequencies has led to bury some unnecessary information from the image components. The performance efficiency of the proposed method was measured by MSE and PSNR criteria to see the extent of the discrepancy between the original image and the recovered image when adopting different degrees of disassembly level, in addition, the extent to which the image type affects the performance efficiency of the approved method has been studied. When the practical application of the method show that the level of disassembly is directly proportional to the amount of the error square MSE and also has a great effect on the extent of correlation where the recovered image away from the original image in direct proportional with the increased degree of disassembly of the image. It also shows the extent to which it is affected by the image of different types and varieties, where was the highest value of the PSNR (58.0393) in the natural images and the less valuable in x-ray images (56.9295) as shown in table 4.

In This Research a new idea based on Fan filter will be achieved to detect the skew angle of a text image. A fan filter will be designed in different level and size to be suitable to decompose the image to its component with the same number of filter level, then looking for which coefficients hold the highest energy. The skew angle of the text image will be extracted from The fan filter component rank which match the highest energy component in the image slices. The proposed algorithm applied on different type of skew with different images. The difference between the measured angle and the actual angle in the range of ± 1.5o. the proposed algorithm was simulated using Matlab software Version (R2011a).

Studying the effect of decompose level in addition to selecting different high frequency coefficient to be dropped, then reconstruct the image from the remaining coefficients has been investigated. The effect of dropped frequencies on the retrieved image has been evaluated. Performance study has investigated in terms of MSE, PSNR and structural similarity of image. Numerical results have shown less MSE, high PSNR, and high structural similarity for images with large size for the same decomposition levels where structural measure closed to (0.87), (0.99) with less MSE approximately (69), (20) for decomposition levels equal [2]–[4] and [2], [3] respectively. While structural similarity of the image does not highly effected with a change of decomposition levels. The resultant MSE and PSNR show promising results for image high quality in many applications of image processing.

The election of low frequencies with a small portion of the high frequencies has led to bury some unnecessary information from the image components. The performance efficiency of the proposed method was measured by MSE and PSNR criteria to see the extent of the discrepancy between the original image and the recovered image when adopting different degrees of disassembly level, in addition, the extent to which the image type affects the performance efficiency of the approved method has been studied. When the practical application of the method show that the level of disassembly is directly proportional to the amount of the error square MSE and also has a great effect on the extent of correlation where the recovered image away from the original image in direct proportional with the increased degree of disassembly of the image. It also shows the extent to which it is affected by the image of different types and varieties, where was the highest value of the PSNR (58.0393) in the natural images and the less valuable in x-ray images (56.9295) as shown in table 4.

In This Research a new idea based on Fan filter will be achieved to detect the skew angle of a text image. A fan filter will be designed in different level and size to be suitable to decompose the image to its component with the same number of filter level, then looking for which coefficients hold the highest energy. The skew angle of the text image will be extracted from The fan filter component rank which match the highest energy component in the image slices. The proposed algorithm applied on different type of skew with different images. The difference between the measured angle and the actual angle in the range of ± 1.5o. the proposed algorithm was simulated using Matlab software Version (R2011a).

Studying the effect of decompose level in addition to selecting different high frequency coefficient to be dropped, then reconstruct the image from the remaining coefficients has been investigated. The effect of dropped frequencies on the retrieved image has been evaluated. Performance study has investigated in terms of MSE, PSNR and structural similarity of image. Numerical results have shown less MSE, high PSNR, and high structural similarity for images with large size for the same decomposition levels where structural measure closed to (0.87), (0.99) with less MSE approximately (69), (20) for decomposition levels equal [2]–[4] and [2], [3] respectively. While structural similarity of the image does not highly effected with a change of decomposition levels. The resultant MSE and PSNR show promising results for image high quality in many applications of image processing.
