We tackle the multi-view image rectification problem by exploiting inter- and intra-disparity constraints. The inter-disparity consistency constraint encourages uniform disparity values for all pairs of neighboring frames, e.g., a 3D point should give the same disparity value for all pairs of stereo images. In addition, the intra-disparity consistency constraint keeps the original shape of the image...
The paper, basing on analysis of the Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) method and specific features of its behavior for various cases of usage, proposes a new variant of the method, which was called as Monte-Carlo Tree Search with Tree Shape Control (MCTS-TSC) and which uses original Depth-Width Criteria (DWCs) for both tree shape estimation and control during search and for estimation and selection...
In this paper, we propose a real-time spatial shape estimation method for an elastic rod. Our proposed method does not use any image sensor nor shape sensor, but does use a six-axis force/torque sensor placed near one end of the elastic rod. In the proposed shape estimation method, the occlusion problem never occurs principally because the shape of a flexible object will be estimated based on an elastic...
A critical issue for Bowden-cable transmission is bending-dependent hysteresis that degrades control performance and limits the application. The relationship between input and output of the Bowden-cable varies with the changing bending angle of the cable. This paper proposes a novel method that can compensate the varying hysteresis of the Bowden-cable using an embedded auxiliary wire, called a sensing...
The lack of digital floor plans in most buildings has become a huge obstacle to pervasive indoor location based services (LBS). Recently there has been quite some research that leverages various sensing data such as inertial, WiFi and images from ubiquitous mobile devices (e.g., smartphones) to construct floor plans at large scale and low costs. Although great efforts are made to improve the accuracy...
We herein propose an evolutionary multi-agent system (EMAS for short) to build an ensemble of surrogates for prediction. In our EMAS, we employ six kinds of basic surrogates, including Gaussian process, Kriging model, polynomial response surface, radial basis function, radial basis function neural network, and support vector regression machine. We define each surrogate as one agent and co-evolve parameters...
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in commercial buildings can provide ancillary services (AS) to the power grid, but by providing AS their energy consumption may increase. This inefficiency is evaluated using round-trip efficiency (RTE), which is defined as the ratio between the decrease and the increase in the HVAC system's energy consumption compared to the baseline consumption...
Accurate volume estimation of left atrial aneurysm plays an essential role in the early diagnosis and therapy planning. However, it is a challenging task due to huge shape variabilities of aneurysms and great appearance variations of images, which tends to be intractable for segmentation methods. In this paper, we propose a novel estimation method for direct estimation of atrial aneurysm volumes without...
This paper proposes an adaptive cross-window stereo camera distance estimation technology which is a low complexity disparity algorithm and high efficient parallelized, which includes Adaptive Cross Window Distance Estimation (ACWDE) and disparity-based erosion. The proposed algorithm reduces the computation time by changing the aggregation window shape, which calculates color and texture of 13 pixels...
Lifetime distribution characteristics of FEOL/MOL/ BEOL time-dependent breakdown (TDDB) with defect clustering conditions were investigated by using a recently proposed two-step probability plot. This method was proposed to estimate parameters of the lifetime distribution function that is based on the defect clustering concept, and has two shape parameters. In the first step, the clustering parameter...
The detection of manipulated images is of utmost significance nowadays, mainly due to the various technological, moral, and judicial connotations associated with image editing. In this paper, a common form of image manipulation known as image composition or splicing is examined. The forgery detection method proposed here makes use of fine inconsistencies in the colour of the lighting of images. Our...
Regularized Tyler Estimator's (RTE) have raised attention over the past years due to their attractive performance over a wide range of noise distributions and their natural robustness to outliers. Developing adaptive methods for the selection of the regularisation parameter α is currently an active topic of research. Indeed, the bias-performance compromise of RTEs highly depends on the considered...
We present a variant of the regularized dual averaging (RDA) algorithm for stochastic sparse optimization. Our approach differs from the previous studies of RDA in two respects. First, a sparsity-promoting metric is employed, originated from the proportionate-type adaptive filtering algorithms. Second, the squared-distance function to a closed convex set is employed as a part of the objective functions...
The density ridge framework for estimating principal curves and surfaces has in a number of recent works been shown to capture manifold structure in data in an intuitive and effective manner. However, to date there exists no efficient way to traverse these manifolds as defined by density ridges. This is unfortunate, as manifold traversal is an important problem for example for shape estimation in...
In this paper we address the problem of learning shared sparse representation across several tasks. Assuming that the tasks share a common set of relevant features across all tasks is highly restrictive. This acts as a motivation to look for a generalized model which will be able to learn any correlation structure present between the tasks. We propose a generalized scale mixture distribution, the...
We propose a method for disparity estimation in stereo video. We address the problems associated with spatially-temporally-correlated disparity variations (STCDV). STCDV problems are caused by complex motions, e.g., yaw-rotation, pan-tilt-zoom camera movements, etc. The key novelty of this study is to introduce a spatio-temporal disparity hyperplane (STDH) model. The proposed STDH model represents...
We propose a new variational method for the completion of moving shapes through binary video inpainting that works by smoothly recovering the objects into an inpainting hole. We solve it by a simple dynamic shape analysis algorithm based on threshold dynamics. The model takes into account the optical flow and motion occlusions. The resulting inpainting algorithm diffuses the available information...
Region of interest (ROI) generation is an important step in stereo-based pedestrian detection systems. In this paper, we propose an ROI generation method by fusing the color and depth information obtained from a stereo camera mounted on a vehicle. In our proposed method, a feature-based method which uses contour properties of the image is used to find the ROIs. In our feature-based ROI extraction...
The main focus of this work is on analysis of the Differential Doppler method having a designed algorithm for computing and 2-D visualization of the iso doppler curves for three-positional and two-positional moving stations with a stationary target. This work also describes the effect of the target position and velocity vectors of the moving stations on the shape of the iso doppler curves. Using the...
Floating Content (FC) has recently been proposed as an attractive application for mobile networks, such as VANETs, to operate opportunistic and distributed content sharing over a given geographic area, namely Anchor Zone (AZ). FC performances are tightly dependent on the AZ size, which in literature is classically chosen by the node that generates the floating message. In the present work, we propose...
