Incorporating depth information into few-shot semantic segmentation

2021

International audience; Few-shot segmentation presents a significant challengefor semantic scene understanding under limited supervision.Namely, this task targets at generalizing the segmentationability of the model to new categories given a few samples.In order to obtain complete scene information, we extend theRGB-centric methods to take advantage of complementary depthinformation. In this paper, we propose a two-stream deep neuralnetwork based on metric learning. Our method, known as RDNet,learns class-specific prototype representations within RGB anddepth embedding spaces, respectively. The learned prototypesprovide effective semantic guidance on the corresponding RGBand depth query ima…

ROBUST ROAD SIGNS SEGMENTATION IN COLOR IMAGES

2012

International audience; This paper presents an efficient method for road signs segmentation in color images. Color segmentation of road signs is a difficult task due to variations in the image acquisition conditions. Therefore, a color constancy algorithm is usually applied prior to segmentation, which increases the computation time. The proposed method is based on a log-chromaticity color space which shows good invariance properties to changing illumination. Thus, the method is simple and fast since it does not require color constancy algorithms. Experiments with a large dataset and comparison with other approaches, show the robustness and accuracy of the method in detecting road signs in …

Vertex Distinguishing Edge- and Total-Colorings of Cartesian and other Product Graphs

2012

International audience; This paper studies edge- and total-colorings of graphs in which (all or only adjacent) vertices are distinguished by their sets of colors. We provide bounds for the minimum number of colors needed for such colorings for the Cartesian product of graphs along with exact results for generalized hypercubes. We also present general bounds for the direct, strong and lexicographic products.

Effet anti-tumoral de l'acide docosahexaénoïque : implication des microARNs et du TNFalpha

2015

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumoral properties. The anti-tumor effect of DHA in colorectal cancer might be attributed to direct anti-proliferative action on cancer cells and to its ability to reduce inflammatory status involved in tumor growth. Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNFa) is an inflammatory cytokine with paradoxical effect in cancer biology. According to the cellular context, TNFa activates RIP1 kinase dependent signaling pathway leading to proliferation or cell death. Our aim was to evaluate the role of TNFa in anti-proliferative effect of DHA in colon cancer cells and to precise the molecular mechanisms regulat…

Isolated lung perfusion with chemotherapy in a pig model

2014

Introduction: The isolated lung perfusion (ILP) is an experimental technique which main objective is to deliver high dose of cytotoxic agent to the lung tissue without systemic exposure. The thesis took place in three stages: first stage, setting in vitro the chemotherapy the most efficient against colorectal cancer (CCR) cells in 30 min. Second stage, develop the ILP technique in a pig model. Third stage, lead a dose escalation study with chemotherapy by ILP.Methods: First stage, efficacy of various cytotoxic molecules against a panel of human CCR cell lines was tested in vitro after a 30-minute exposure. Second stage, pigs were treated with chemotherapy delivered by ILP during 30 minutes …

Characterization of Food Packaging Films with Blackcurrant Fruit Waste as a Source of Antioxidant and Color Sensing Intelligent Material

2021

Chitosan and pectin films were enriched with blackcurrant pomace powder (10 and 20% (w/w)), as bio-based material, to minimize food production losses and to increase the functional properties of produced films aimed at food coatings and wrappers. Water vapor permeability of active films increased up to 25%, moisture content for 27% in pectin-based ones, but water solubility was not significantly modified. Mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation at break and Young’s modulus) were mainly decreased due to the residual insoluble particles present in blackcurrant waste. FTIR analysis showed no significant changes between the film samples. The degradation temperatures, determined by D…

Colorimetric Characterization of a Positive Film Scanner Using an Extremely Reduced Training Data Set

2011

International audience; In this work, we address the problem of having an accurate colorimetric characterization of a scanner for traditional posi- tive film in order to guarantee the accuracy of the color informa- tion during the digitization of a movie. The scanning of a posi- tive film is not an usual task, however it can happen for cultural heritage purpose. Art-movies, are often created and stored as positive-film in museums. One of the problems one can face for a colorimetric characterization is to have a reasonable number of measurements from an item. In this work we succeeded in having a reasonable accuracy with just a few number of measurement (typically 4 to 7 ∆Ea∗b units with 2 t…

The b-chromatic number of power graphs

2003

The b-chromatic number of a graph G is defined as the maximum number k of colors that can be used to color the vertices of G, such that we obtain a proper coloring and each color i, with 1 ≤ i≤ k, has at least one representant x_i adjacent to a vertex of every color j, 1 ≤ j ≠ i ≤ k. In this paper, we discuss the b-chromatic number of some power graphs. We give the exact value of the b-chromatic number of power paths and power complete binary trees, and we bound the b-chromatic number of power cycles.
