Multiple Structured Light-Based Depth Sensors for Human Motion Analysis: A Review
2012
Human motion analysis is an increasingly important active research domain with various applications in surveillance, human-machine interaction and human posture analysis. The recent developments in depth sensor technology, especially with the release of the Kinect device, have attracted significant attention to the question of how to take advantage of this technology in order to achieve accurate motion tracking and action detection in marker-less approaches. In this paper, we review the benefits and limitations deriving from the adoption of structured light-based depth sensors in human motion analysis applications. Surveying the relevant literature, we have identified in calibration, interf…
Evolutionary-based 3D reconstruction using an uncalibrated stereovision system: application of building a panoramic object view
2010
In this paper, we propose an original evolutionary-based method for 3D panoramic reconstruction from an uncalibrated stereovision system (USS). The USS is composed of five cameras located on an arc of a circle around the object to be analyzed. The main originality of this work concerns the process of the calculation of the 3D information. Actually, with our method, 3D coordinates are directly obtained without any prior estimation of the fundamental matrix. The method operates in two steps. Firstly, points of interest are detected in pairs of images acquired by two consecutive cameras of the USS are matched. And secondly, using evolutionary algorithms, we jointly compute the transformed matr…
Study and Comparison of Surface Roughness Measurements
2014
Journées du Groupe de Travail en Modélisation Géométrique (GTMG'14), Lyon; This survey paper focus on recent researches whose goal is to optimize treatments on 3D meshes, thanks to a study of their surface features, and more precisely their roughness and saliency. Applications like watermarking or lossy compression can benefit from a precise roughness detection, to better hide the watermarks or quantize coarsely these areas, without altering visually the shape. Despite investigations on scale dependence leading to multi-scale approaches, an accurate roughness or pattern characterization is still lacking, but challenging for those treatments. We think there is still room for investigations t…
Étude et optimisation d'un système d'annulation d'écho pour répéteur de radiocommunication
2012
International audience; Le phénomène d'écho en radio-fréquence (RF) se produit au sein d'un répéteur iso-fréquence (IF) lorsque l'isolation entre l'antenne d'émission et l'antenne de réception est insuffisante. L'objectif de ces travaux est de trouver un système d'identification et d'annulation d'écho, en se basant sur le traitement avancé du signal. Cette solution doit être implémenatable matériellement, sur un cir- cuit programmable type FPGA, l'objectif est de travailler en temps réel. La vitesse de convergence des algorithmes, leurs coûts en terme de ressources matérielles et leurs robustesses aux bruits font partie de l'optimisation recherchée. Cette solution doit être utilisable pour …
XA2C Framework for XML Alteration/Adaptation
2010
XML has crossed the borders of software engineering and has spread to other areas such as e-commerce, identification, information storage, instant messaging and others. It is used to communicate crucial data over these domains. Thus, allowing non-expert programmers to manipulate and control their XML data is essential. In the literature, this issue has been dealt with from 3 perspectives: (i) XML alteration/adaptation techniques requiring a certain level of expertise to be implemented and are not unified yet, (ii) mashups, which are not formally defined yet and are not specific to XML data, and (iii) XML-oriented visual languages based on structural transformations and data extraction mainl…
On Keyframe Positioning for Pose Graphs Applied to Visual SLAM
2013
International audience; In this work, a new method is introduced for localization and keyframe identification to solve a Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) problem. The proposed approach is based on a dense spherical acquisition system that synthesizes spherical intensity and depth images at arbitrary locations. The images are related by a graph of 6 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) poses which are estimated through spherical registration. A direct image-based method is provided to estimate pose by using both depth and color information simultaneously. A new keyframe identification method is proposed to build the map of the environment by using the covariance matrix between raletive 6 DOF…
Performance evaluation of Wireless Sensor Networks based on ZigBee technology in smart home
2013
International audience; Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has diverse application domains such as smart home, smart care, industrial, etc. In this paper, we present a WSN system based on the ZigBee technology (IEEE 802.15.4) in Smart Home. To have a good sensor networks communication implanted in a smart home, studies of operating performance on this network is important. In this work, we investigate the performance of our ZigBee sensor networks. The study of performance is based on measurements of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) in different parts of the Home. We will also discuss the impact of electromagnetic noise on the communication performance of a ZigBee Sensor Network in…
Stratified Autocalibration of Cameras with Euclidean Image Plane
2020
International audience; This paper tackles the problem of stratified autocalibration of a moving camera with Euclidean image plane (i.e. zero skew and unit aspect ratio) and constant intrinsic parameters. We show that with these assumptions, in addition to the polynomial derived from the so-called modulus constraint, each image pair provides a new quartic polynomial in the unknown plane at infinity. For three or more images, the plane at infinity estimation is stated as a constrained polynomial optimization problem that can efficiently be solved using Lasserre's hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations. The calibration parameters and thus a metric reconstruction are subsequently obtained by so…
