Design and modelling a of bimodal camera system
2021
In computer vision, researchers face a challenging concern due to the limited field of view (FoV) when using standard cameras in capturing scenes. This problem of narrow FoV often encountered within applications that involve tasks which are related to the robot vision. Many authors have attempted, in different approaches, to solve this issue by fusing two cameras. However, they failed to improve the registration and fusing errors, where the obtained results still limited and not accurate enough. To deal with this limitation and decrease these errors, we propose a new method of camera calibration based on Interior-Point Optimisation (IPO) algorithm using transformation matrix estimation. Thi…
Integration, Bewertung und Nutzung heterogener Datenquellen mittels semantischer Werkzeuge
2017
In diesem Artikel stellen wir unsere Forschung in der Integration von Geodaten in einen Semantic Web Kontext in unserem Projekt Semantic GIS vor. Zunächst möchten wir den Zweck und die Vorteile einer Integration und Interpretation von Daten in das Semantic Web beleuchten und anschließend unseren Integrationprozess bestehend aus Datengewin-nung, automatischer Interpretation, Qualitätssicherung und Provenance sowie den Datenzugriff erklären. Um die Anwendung unserer Forschung zu demonstrieren gehen wir auf zwei Anwendungsfälle in unserem Projekt ein: Die Bewertung von OpenStreetMap Daten und die Verbesserung des Katastrophenschutzes mittels semantischem Reasoning. Wir schließen den Artikel mi…
Mathematical Modelling of Leukemia Treatment
2021
Leukemia is a cancer that can be treated in a variety of ways: chemotherapy, radiation therapy and stem cell transplant. Recovery rates for this disease are relatively high, the treatment itself has a painful effect on the body and is accompanied by numerous side effects that can persist years after the patient is cured. For this reason, efforts are underway worldwide to develop more selective therapies that will only affect leukemia cells and not healthy cells. Knowledge of developmental GRN is yet scarce, and it is early for a systematic comparative effort. We consider mathematical model of genetic regulatory networks. This model consists of a nonlinear system of ordinary differential equ…
Spreading dynamics of three-dimensional droplets by the lattice-Boltzmann method
2000
Abstract We have simulated spreading of small droplets on smooth and rough solid surfaces using the three-dimensional lattice-Boltzmann method. We present results for the influence of the initial distance and shape of the drop from the surface on scaling of droplet radius R as a function of time. For relatively flat initial drop shapes our observations are consistent with Tanner's law R ∼ t q , where q =1/10. For increasingly spherical initial shapes, the exponent q increases rapidly being above one half for spherical droplets initially just above the surface. As expected, surface roughness slows down spreading, decreases the final drop radius, and results in irregular droplet shape due to …
Surface-Impedance Formulation for Hollow-Core Waveguides Based on Subwavelength Gratings
2022
A rigorous Surface Impedance (SI) formulation for planar waveguides is presented. This modal technique splits the modal analysis of the waveguide in two steps. First, we obtain the modes characteristic equations as a function of the SI and, second, we need to obtain the surface impedance values using either analytical or numerical methods. We validate the technique by comparison with well-known analytical cases: the parallel-plate waveguide with losses and the dielectric slab waveguide. Then, we analyze an optical hollow-core waveguide de ned by two high-contrast subwavelength gratings validating our results by comparison with reported values. Finally, we show the potential of our formulati…
GRAPH-BASED RULES FOR XML DATA CONVERSION TO OWL ONTOLOGY
2010
International audience; The paper presents a flexible method to enrich and populate an existing OWL ontology from XML data based on graph-based rules. These rules are defined in order to populate automatically a new version of an OWL ontology. Today, most of data exchanged between information systems is done with the help of the XML document. Leading researches in the domain of database systems are moving to semantic model in order to store data and its semantics definition. This flexible method consists in populating an existing OWL ontology from XML data. In paper we present such a method based on the definition of a graph which represents rules that drive the populating process.
Ontology mapping specification in description logics for cooperative systems
2006
Le developpement rapide du Web semantique est lie a la specification de plus en plus d'ontologies. Celles-ci permettent de modeliser des connaissances agreees par des communautes de personnes concernant des domaines ou des tâches specifiques. Le meme domaine decrit par deux communautes distinctes sera modelise de facon differente. Les systemes cooperatifs visent a rendre les informations provenant de differentes sources disponibles au-dela de leurs divergences. Pour cela, ils doivent aligner, fusionner ou integrer ces ontologies. La decouverte de mappings est un point cle dans la resolution efficace des heterogeneites entre ontologies. Nous developpons une architecture qui connecte des syst…
A Survey on Ontology Evaluation Methods
2015
International audience; Ontologies nowadays have become widely used for knowledge representation, and are considered as foundation for Semantic Web. However with their wide spread usage, a question of their evaluation increased even more. This paper addresses the issue of finding an efficient ontology evaluation method by presenting the existing ontology evaluation techniques, while discussing their advantages and drawbacks. The presented ontology evaluation techniques can be grouped into four categories: gold standard-based, corpus-based, task-based and criteria based approaches.
Ontology Views for Ontology Change Management
2014
International audience; In the literature, ontology change management systems (OCMS) are direct implementation of the concept of “change management” stated by reference (Klein, 2004). Ontology change management combines ontol- ogy evolution and versioning features to manage ontol- ogy changes and their impacts. Since 2007, many works have combined ontology evolution and versioning into ontology change management systems (OCMS). The evolution subject has been massively studied in these works. They especially addressed the consistence issue for the application of changes on the ontology. These proposals constituted a consequent background for ontology change management but they did not take i…
Modeling Changes for SHOIN(D) Ontologies: An Exhaustive Structural Model
2013
Ontology development starts with a rigorous ontological analysis that provides a conceptualization of the domain to model agreed by the community. An ontology, specified in a formal language, approximates the intended models of this conceptualization. It needs then to be revised and refined until an ontological commitment is found. Also ulterior updates, responding to changes in the domain and/or the conceptualization, are expected to occur throughout the ontology life cycle. To handle a consistent application of changes, a couple of ontology evolution methodologies have been proposed. Maintaining the structural consistency is one of the ontology evolution criteria. It implies modeling chan…
