A nonlinear oscillators network devoted to image processing
2004
A contrast enhancement and image inverting tool using a lattice of uncoupled nonlinear oscillators is proposed. We show theoretically and numerically that the gray scale picture contrast is strongly enhanced even if this one is initially very small. An image inversion can be also obtained in real time with the same Cellular Nonlinear Network (CNN) without reconfiguration of the network. A possible electronic implementation of this CNN is finally discussed.
A 1.3 megapixel FPGA-based smart camera for high dynamic range real time video
2013
International audience; A camera is able to capture only a part of a high dynamic range scene information. The same scene can be fully perceived by the human visual system. This is true especially for real scenes where the difference in light intensity between the dark areas and bright areas is high. The imaging technique which can overcome this problem is called HDR (High Dynamic Range). It produces images from a set of multiple LDR images (Low Dynamic Range), captured with different exposure times. This technique appears as one of the most appropriate and a cheap solution to enhance the dynamic range of captured environments. We developed an FPGA-based smart camera that produces a HDR liv…
Smart camera design for realtime High Dynamic Range imaging
2011
International audience; Many camera sensors suffer from limited dynamic range. The result is that there is a lack of clear details in displayed images and videos. This paper describes our approach to generate high dynamic range (HDR) from an image sequence while modifying exposure times for each new frame. For this purpose, we propose an FPGA-based architecture that can produce a real-time high dynamic range video from successive image acquisition. Our hardware platform is build around a standard low dynamic range CMOS sensor and a Virtex 5 FPGA board. The CMOS sensor is a EV76C560 provided by e2v. This 1.3 Megapixel device offers novel pixel integration/readout modes and embedded image pre…
HDR-ARtiSt: High Dynamic Range Advanced Real-Time Imaging System
2012
International audience; This paper describes the HDR-ARtiSt hardware platform, a FPGA-based architecture that can produce a real- time high dynamic range video from successive image acquisition. The hardware platform is built around a standard low dynamic range (LDR) CMOS sensor and a Virtex 5 FPGA board. The CMOS sensor is a EV76C560 provided by e2v. This 1.3 Megapixel device offers novel pixel integration/readout modes and em- bedded image pre-processing capabilities including multiframe acquisition with various exposure times. Our approach consists of a hardware architecture with different algorithms: double exposure control during image capture, building of an HDR image by combining the…
COLORED NOISE EFFECTS ON GHOST STOCHASTIC RESONANCE
2014
International audience; We analyze the Ghost Stochastic Resonance (GSR) effect in an electronic circuit exactly ruled by the FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) equations, both numerically and experimentally. When the circuit is excited with a bichromatic driving with two close frequencies, we show that for an appropriate noise intensity the circuit response exhibits a ghost frequency which is not present in the biharmonic input signal. In this paper, we highlight the e ects of colored noise on GSR.
Analyse de la dynamique de la durée du potentiel d'action cardiaque à travers un modèle itératif
2013
International audience; Le présent travail a pour but de caractériser, par une étude mathématique rigoureuse la dynamique du modèle itératif de la durée du potentiel d'action. L'étude de ce modèle, qui découle de celui de Beeler Reuter (BR), se caractérise par une dynamique matérialisée par une courbe de restitution et qui peut servir d'outil pertinent dans l'analyse et le diagnostic d'arythmie. Par ailleurs l'analyse de la stabilité du modèle permet de définir les zones d'existence de différents rythmes cardiaques.
Étude de la Dynamique des Ondes Spirales à l'Échelle Cellulaire par Modèles Expérimental et Numérique
2012
Among the death due to the cardiac problems, the arrhythmias play a major role, particularly the atrial disorders. This alarming situation attracts an intense research, but it is still limited by the availability of experimental models to reproduce the triggering mechanisms of arrhythmias at the cellular level and extensions of these anomalies. Whether they occur on a healthy or pathological heart, or they are benign or potentially dangerous (risk of sudden death), the arrhythmias constitute an important chapter of the cardiology. This thesis is interested in the studying and modeling of the arrhythmias at a cellular scale. Thus the problems of this thesis can be summarized briefly by the f…

A smart camera for High Dynamic Range imaging
2013
International audience; A camera or a video camera is able to capture only a part of a high dynamic range scene information. The same scene can be almost totally perceived by the human visual system. This is true especially for real scenes where the difference in light intensity between the dark areas and bright areas is high. The imaging technique which can overcome this problem is called HDR (High Dynamic Range). It produces images from a set of multiple LDR images (Low Dynamic Range), captured with different exposure times. This technique appears as one of the most appropriate and a cheap solution to enhance the dynamic range of captured environments. We developed an FPGA-based smart cam…
A comparative study of noise effects in a FitzHugh-Nagumo circuit
2014
International audience; This paper focuses on the behaviour of a nonlinear FitzHugh-Nagumo circuit in the stochastic case that is in presence of noise and without deterministic driving. When the circuit is tuned below the Andronov-Hopf bifurcation, classical coherence res- onance signature is revealed. We compare the stochastic response of the system when the noise acts on two different parameters of the system. It is experimentally shown that an enhancement of the systems response can be achieved when the noise is directly added into the nonlinearity.
