Abstract

In this paper we are trying to identify the best feature extraction method for classifying war scene from natural scene using Artificial Neural Networks. Also, we are proposed a new hybrid method for the same. For this purpose two set of image categories are taken viz., opencountry & war tank. By using the proposed hybrid method and other feature extraction methods like haar wavelet, daubechies (db4) wavelet, Zernike moments, Invariant moments, co-occurrence features & statistical moments, features are extracted from the images/scenes. The extracted features are trained and tested with Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) using feed forward back propagation algorithm. The comparative results are proving efficiency of the proposed hybrid feature extraction method (i.e., the combination of GLCM & Statistical moments) in war scene classification problems. It can be concluded that the proposed work significantly and directly contributes to scene classification and its new applications. The complete work is experimented in Matlab 7.6.0 using real world dataset.
