    Abstract: Disclosed is a vehicle identification method and system. The method includes: acquiring appearance information of an inspected vehicle; obtaining external features of the vehicle based on the appearance information; acquiring a transmission image of the vehicle and obtaining internal features of the vehicle from the transmission image; forming descriptions on the vehicle at least based on the external features and the internal features; and determining a vehicle model of the vehicle from a vehicle model databased by utilizing the descriptions. This method merges various types of modality information, especially introducing the transmission image, and combines the internal structure information with the appearance information, so that the present disclosure can identify a vehicle model more practically.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for estimating an image fuzziness are provided. The method may comprise: acquiring an image; obtaining a multi-scale representation of the image by performing a multi-scale transform on the image; calculating gradients of the image and a normalized histogram of the gradients at each scale based on the multi-scale representation; calculating error vectors between the normalized histogram of gradients at each scale and a normalized original histogram of gradients of the image; performing a weighted summing on the error vectors by using respective weights to obtain a summed result, wherein the weights are determined based on a reciprocal of the sums of squares of the gradients of the image at each scale; estimating the ambiguity of the image based on the summed result.

    Abstract: A method of evaluating an image quality for an imaging system and the imaging system are provided. The method in some examples includes: acquiring an image to be evaluated which is generated by the imaging system; extracting a number of sub-images from the image; obtaining a coefficient vector indicating a degree of sparsity by applying a sparse decomposition on the sub-images based on a pre-set redundant sparse representation dictionary; and performing a linear transformation on the coefficient vector so as to obtain an evaluation value for the image quality. The sparse dictionary is learned by only using a few high quality perspective images, and then the image quality is evaluated based on the sparse degree of the image obtained by using the sparse dictionary. A convenient and rapid no-reference image quality evaluation is achieved.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and a system for inspecting goods. The method comprises steps of: obtaining a transmission image of inspected goods; processing the transmission image to obtain a suspicious region; extracting local texture features of the suspicious region and classifying the local texture features of the suspicious region based on a pre-created model to obtain a classification result; extracting a contour line shape feature of the suspicious region and comparing the contour line shape feature with a pre-created standard template to obtain a comparison result; and determining that the suspicious region contains a high atomic number matter based on the classification result and the comparison result.
