- Automatic histogram threshold using fuzzy measuresPublication . Lopes, Nuno Vieira; Couto, Pedro M.; Bustince, Humberto; Melo-Pinto, PedroIn this paper, an automatic histogram threshold approach based on a fuzziness measure is presented. This work is an improvement of an existing method. Using fuzzy logic concepts, the problems involved in finding the minimum of a criterion function are avoided. Similarity between gray levels is the key to find an optimal threshold. Two initial regions of gray levels, located at the boundaries of the histogram, are defined. Then, using an index of fuzziness, a similarity process is started to find the threshold point. A significant contrast between objects and background is assumed. Previous histogram equalization is used in small contrast images. No prior knowledge of the image is required.

- Fuzzy Dynamic Matching Approach for Multi-Feature TrackingPublication . Lopes, Nuno Vieira; Couto, Pedro A.; Bustince, Humberto; Melo-Pinto, PedroFeature tracking is one of the most challenging and important tasks in computer vision playing an important role in several areas. In this paper, a new approach for multi feature tracking is presented. Information from the image gray levels and the features movement model is aggregated through the use of fuzzy sets with a fuzzy inference engine to give the final output. Experimental results are presented showing that the approach successfully copes with usual difficulties within this problem.
