Region-based segmentation on depth images from a 3D reference surface for tree species recognition.
2013
International audience; The aim of the work presented in this paper is to develop a method for the automatic identification of tree species using Terrestrial Light Detection and Ranging (T-LiDAR) data. The approach that we propose analyses depth images built from 3D point clouds corresponding to a 30 cm segment of the tree trunk in order to extract characteristic shape features used for classifying the different tree species using the Random Forest classifier. We will present the method used to transform the 3D point cloud to a depth image and the region based segmentation method used to segment the depth images before shape features are computed on the segmented images. Our approach has be…
An evaluation framework and a benchmark for multi/hyperspectral image compression
2011
International audience; This paper benchmarks three multi/hyperspectral image compression approaches: the classic Multi-2D compression approach and two different implementations of 3D approach (Full 3D and Hybrid). All approaches are combined with a spectral PCA decorrelation stage to optimize performance. These three compression approaches are compared within a larger comparison framework than the conventionally used PSNR, which includes eight metrics divided into three families. The comparison is carried out with regard to variations in bitrates, spatial, and spectral dimensions variations of images. The time and memory consumption difference between the three approaches is also discussed…
Saliency-Based Band Selection For Spectral Image Visu- alization
2011
International audience; In this paper, we introduce a new band selection ap- proach for the color visualization of spectral images. Un- like traditional methods, we propose to make a selection out of a comparison of the saliency maps of the individual spectral channels. This allows to assess how different they are in terms of prominent features. A comparison metric based on Shannon's information theory at the second and third order is presented and results are subjectively and ob- jectively compared to other dimensionality reduction tech- niques on three datasets, demonstrating the efficiency of the proposed approach.
Saliency in spectral images
2011
International audience; Even though the study of saliency for color images has been thoroughly investigated in the past, very little attention has been given to datasets that cannot be displayed on traditional computer screens such as spectral images. Nevertheless, more than a means to predict human gaze, the study of saliency primarily allows for measuring infor- mative content. Thus, we propose a novel approach for the computation of saliency maps for spectral images. Based on the Itti model, it in- volves the extraction of both spatial and spectral features, suitable for high dimensionality images. As an application, we present a comparison framework to evaluate how dimensionality reduct…
Reconstruction of hyperspectral cutaneous data from an artificial neural network-based multispectral imaging system.
2011
International audience; The development of an integrated MultiSpectral Imaging (MSI) system yielding hyperspectral cubes by means of artificial neural networks is described. The MSI system is based on a CCD camera, a rotating wheel bearing a set of seven interference filters, a light source and a computer. The resulting device has been elaborated for in vivo imaging of skin lesions. It provides multispectral images and is coupled with a software reconstructing hyperspectral cubes from multispectral images. Reconstruction is performed by a neural network-based algorithm using heteroassociative memories. The resulting hyperspectral cube provides skin optical reflectance spectral data combined…
Camera-based measurement of relative image contrast in projection displays
2013
International audience; This research investigated the measured contrast of projection displays based on pictures taken by un-calibrated digital cameras under typical viewing conditions. A high-end radiometer was employed as a reference to the physical response of projection luminance. Checkerboard, gray scale and color complex test images with a range of the projector's brightness and contrast settings were projected. Two local and two global contrast metrics were evaluated on the acquired pictures. We used contrast surface plots and Pearson correlation to investigate the measured contrast versus the projector's brightness and contrast settings. The results suggested, as expected, the proj…
Une mariophanie martiale à Dijon
2015
The ”delivrance de Dijon” in 1513 is an ambiguous event that mixes original procession, memorial procession, votive tapestry and historiographical interpretation. This paper studies, in this ”millefeuille”, the uses of martial miracle of the Virgin Mary in favor of Dijon inhabitants. What is the role of these invocation-purposed processions in the panic context of war and in the Marian piety of the Burgundian renaissance ? The Mariophany of the delivrance must not be interpreted in the light of negotiations between the city and the besiegers and a treaty that saves the city and its inhabitants, but sees Louis XII unhappy ? Finally, doesn’t divine intervention result from the power of the im…
Système de sécurité biométrique multimodal par imagerie, dédié au contrôle d’accès
2019
Research of this thesis consists in setting up efficient and light solutions to answer the problems of securing sensitive products. Motivated by a collaboration with various stakeholders within the Nuc-Track project, the development of a biometric security system, possibly multimodal, will lead to a study on various biometric features such as the face, fingerprints and the vascular network. This thesis will focus on an algorithm and architecture matching, with the aim of minimizing the storage size of the learning models while guaranteeing optimal performances. This will allow it to be stored on a personal support, thus respecting privacy standards.
Application of LSTM architectures for next frame forecasting in Sentinel-1 images time series
2020
L'analyse prédictive permet d'estimer les tendances des évènements futurs. De nos jours, les algorithmes Deep Learning permettent de faire de bonnes prédictions. Cependant, pour chaque type de problème donné, il est nécessaire de choisir l'architecture optimale. Dans cet article, les modèles Stack-LSTM, CNN-LSTM et ConvLSTM sont appliqués à une série temporelle d'images radar sentinel-1, le but étant de prédire la prochaine occurrence dans une séquence. Les résultats expérimentaux évalués à l'aide des indicateurs de performance tels que le RMSE et le MAE, le temps de traitement et l'index de similarité SSIM, montrent que chacune des trois architectures peut produire de bons résultats en fon…
An SVD-Based Approach for Ghost Detection and Removal in High Dynamic Range Images
2012
International audience; In this paper, we propose a simple method for the ghost detection problem in the context of merging multiple low dynamic range (LDR) images to form a high dynamic range (HDR) image. We show that the second biggest singular values extracted over local spatio-temporal neighbourhoods can be effectively used for ghost region detection. Furthermore, we combine the proposed method with an exposure fusion technique to generate final HDR image free of ghosting artefacts. We present experimental results to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method and quantitative comparison with other existing approaches show the good performance of our method in detecting and removin…
