Download or read book Variable Illumination and Invariant Features for Detecting and Classifying Varnish Defects written by Ana Pérez Grassi and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents a method to detect and classify varnish defects on wood surfaces. Since these defects are only partially visible under certain illumination directions, one image doesn't provide enough information for a recognition task. A classification requires inspecting the surface under different illumination directions, which results in image series. The information is distributed along this series and can be extracted by merging the knowledge about the defect shape and light direction.

Download or read book Probabilistic Models and Inference for Multi View People Detection in Overlapping Depth Images written by Wetzel, Johannes and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, the task of wide-area indoor people detection in a network of depth sensors is examined. In particular, we investigate how the redundant and complementary multi-view information, including the temporal context, can be jointly leveraged to improve the detection performance. We recast the problem of multi-view people detection in overlapping depth images as an inverse problem and present a generative probabilistic framework to jointly exploit the temporal multi-view image evidence.

Book excerpt: In order to develop a driver assistance system for pedestrian protection, pedestrians in the environment of a truck are detected by radars and a camera and are tracked across distributed fields of view using a Joint Integrated Probabilistic Data Association filter. A robust approach for prediction of the system vehicles trajectory is presented. It serves the computation of a probabilistic collision risk based on reachable sets where different sources of uncertainty are taken into account.

This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for smart grid and smart home applications has raised the recent interest in power line communication (PLC) technologies, and has driven a broad set of deep surveys in low-voltage (LV) power line channels. This book proposes a set of novel approaches, to characterize and to emulate LV power line channels in the frequency range from0.15to 10 MHz, which closes gaps between the traditional narrowband (up to 500 kHz) and broadband (above1.8 MHz) ranges.
Download or read book Hyperspectral Image Unmixing Incorporating Adjacency Information written by Bauer, Sebastian and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the spectral information contained in hyperspectral images is rich, the spatial resolution of such images is in many cases very low. Many pixel spectra are mixtures of pure materials' spectra and therefore need to be decomposed into their constituents. This work investigates new decomposition methods taking into account spectral, spatial and global 3D adjacency information. This allows for faster and more accurate decomposition results.
