WiseEye: A Platform to Manage and Experiment on Smart Camera Networks
2016
International audience; Embedded vision is probably at the edge of phenomenal expansion. The smart cameras are embedding some processing units which are more and more powerful. Last decade, high-speed image processing can be implemented on specifically designed architectures [1] nevertheless the designing time of such systems was quite high and time to market therefore as well. Since, powerful chips (i.e System On Chip) and quick prototyping methodologies are contently emerging [2],[3],[4] and enable more complex algorithms to be implemented faster. Moreover, smart cameras which are embedding flexible and powerful multi-core processors or Graphic Processors Unit (GPU) are now available and …
Multi-commutation in spectrometry
2009
We review recent developments in manifold components and the introduction of light-emitting-diode technology in spectroscopic detection in order to evaluate the tremendous possibilities offered by multi-commutation for in-field and in-situ measurements, based on the use of multi-pumping and low-voltage, portable batteries, which make possible a dramatic reduction in size, weight and power requirements of spectrometric devices.
Lie Detection: Remarks From Neuroethics
2016
El presente trabajo aborda los aspectos bioéticos derivados de los ya no tan recientes avances en Neurociencia cognitiva; especialmente las implicaciones que la introducción de las pruebas neurocientíficas en el proceso judicial penal, como la conocida técnica de detección de mentiras (prueba P.300) pueden acarrear. Como seguidamente veremos, el creciente desarrollo de la neuroimagen ha avivado la inquietud por la protección de la autonomía individual, la seguridad y la superación de interpretaciones reduccionistas contrarias a la dignidad de las personas. Cuestiones a las que están prestando atención los estudios de neuroética, los cuales, aunque empezaron su recorrido a finales de la déca…
On strongly tactical codes
1986
We study perfect error correcting codes in which the codewords are protected by Hamming spheres of distinct protective radii. These codes have been introduced by Cohen, Montaron and Frankl [3, 4, 10].
An automatic filtering algorithm for SURF-based registration of remote sensing images
2017
International audience; The registration of remote sensing images has been often a necessary step for further analyses of images taken at different times, different viewing geometry or with different sensors. For this task there exists many approaches. This paper focuses on the feature-based category of image registration methods. Particularly, we propose an improvement of the SURF algorithm on the point matching step. Indeed, in order to achieve a correct registration, a good matching of feature point is required. However The presence of outliers lead to a fail in the registration. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce an efficient method devoted to the detection and removal of such outli…
Multispectral, Fluorescent and Photoplethysmographic Imaging for Remote Skin Assessment
2017
Optical tissue imaging has several advantages over the routine clinical imaging methods, including non-invasiveness (does not change the structure of tissues), remote operation (avoids infection) and ability to quantify the tissue condition by means of specific image parameters. Dermatologists and other skin experts need compact (preferably pocket-size), self-sustained and easy-to-use imaging devices. The operational principles and designs of ten portable in-vivo skin imaging prototypes developed at the Biophotonics Laboratory of Institute of Atomic Physics and Spectroscopy, University of Latvia during the recent five years are presented in this paper. Four groups of imaging devices are con…
Positive family history of colorectal cancer in a general practice setting [FRIDA.Frankfurt]: study protocol of a of a cross-sectional study.
2015
Background Although the risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC) is 2-4 times higher in case of a positive family history, risk-adapted screening programs for family members related to CRC- patients do not exist in the German health care system. CRC screening recommendations for persons under 55 years of age that have a family predisposition have been published in several guidelines. The primary aim of this study is to determine the frequency of positive family history of CRC (1st degree relatives with CRC) among 40–54 year old persons in a general practitioner (GP) setting in Germany. Secondary aims are to detect the frequency of occurrence of colorectal neoplasms (CRC and advanced adeno…
Exudate Segmentation on Retinal Atlas Space
2013
International audience; Diabetic macular edema is characterized by hard exudates. Presence of such exudates cause vision loss in the affected areas. We present a novel approach of segmenting exudates for screening and follow-ups by building an ethnicity based statistical atlas. The chromatic distribution in such an atlas gives a good measure of probability of the pixels belonging to the healthy retinal pigments or to the abnormalities (like lesions, imaging artifacts etc.) in the retinal fundus image. Post-processing schemes are introduced in this paper for the enhancement of the edges of such exudates for final segmentation and to separate lesion from false positives. A sensitivity(recall)…

A vision-based fully automated approach to robust image cropping detection
2020
Abstract The definition of valid and robust methodologies for assessing the authenticity of digital information is nowadays critical to contrast social manipulation through the media. A key research topic in multimedia forensics is the development of methods for detecting tampered content in large image collections without any human intervention. This paper introduces AMARCORD (Automatic Manhattan-scene AsymmetRically CrOpped imageRy Detector), a fully automated detector for exposing evidences of asymmetrical image cropping on Manhattan-World scenes. The proposed solution estimates and exploits the camera principal point, i.e., a physical feature extracted directly from the image content th…
