Classification of fatigue bills based on K-means by using creases feature

Abstract

The bills in circulation generate a large amount of fatigue bills every year, causing various types of problems, such as the paper jam in automatic tellers due to overwork and exhaustion. A highly advanced bill classification technique, which distinguishes whether a bill is a reusable bill specifying the level of fatigue, is greatly required in order to comb out these problematic bills. Therefore, a purpose of this paper is to suggest a classification method of fatigue bills based on K-means with bill image data. The effectiveness of this approach is verified by the bill discriminant experimentation. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
