In this paper, we propose a modular wireless sensor platform that consists of sensor modules. Each sensor module is a part of sensor system and in charge of one job in the system, such as computation, communication, output or sensing. Users can stack multiple modules together to build a unique sensor platform. Since users are able to easily replace one module with others, the proposed platform is...
Wound image segmentation of skin area is one of the key steps in automatic judgment, which can help clinicians in their diagnosis. This work is part of the telecare program dedicated to the design of a surgery site infection detection system We proposed a series of image processing steps composed of image processing algorithms and a novel segmentation method of complementary computation. As edge-based...
Grouping cues can affect the performance of segmentation greatly. In this paper, we show that superpixels (image segments) can provide powerful grouping cues to guide segmentation, where superpixels can be collected easily by (over)-segmenting the image using any reasonable existing segmentation algorithms. Generated by different algorithms with varying parameters, superpixels can capture diverse...
Based on image processing technique, this paper used face images of users as virtual images to automatically produce different facial expression images. The face images in neural state can be transformed into the facial expression images. First, for the face images in neutral state, skin color segmentation and morphological noise processing were conducted to separate the possible face zone from the...
This paper discusses the elements about product form design, function, Ergonomics, Aesthetics, and the relation between them, and analyzes their influence on each other through the research on the elements of Power Tools. Through exploring the best course of combination of the elements of products (form, color, material, Ergonomics), it will help to do form design based on Image Expression.
Exploratory data analysis (EDA: Tukey, 1977) has been introduced and extensively used for more than 30 years yet boxplot and scatterplot are still the major EDA tools for visualizing continuous data in the 21st century. On the other hand, multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) type of methods and mosaic plots are most popular in practice for visualizing multivariate binary and nominal data. But all...
Some problems existed in the design stages of new product development such as high cost, low efficiency, long developing period, ergonomic problem and so on. We can improve developing efficiency by using Computer Aided Industrial Design (CAID) technology and Computer Assistant Engineering (CAE) in product development. This research proposes bottom-up design method to support industrial design for...
This paper proposes a new method to remove ringing artifacts without blurring textures. The method uses LSF (line spread function), color similarity and perceptual similarity to detect coding artifacts in decoded images. Blocks are roughly classified into different types by using LSF values. Perceptual similarities among classified blocks are measured with rules that simulate human visual experience...
