Single Scale Retinex for Infant Pain Recognition

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper discussed the crucial demand regarding the scheme to translate the silence voice from the newborn. The infant can’t afford to express their feeling of pain by voice. Hence, we proudly present an infant pain recognition system to overcome this matter. We employed the Single Scale Retinex (SSR) to remove the illumination level. Secondly, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) was adopted as the feature extraction. We determine the condition of the infants (pain/no pain) with Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). Several diagnosis tests were performed to estimate the performance of the suggested method under various illumination levels.
