Quadratic Objective Functions for Dichromatic Model Parameters Estimation
2017
International audience; In this paper, we present a novel method to estimate dichromatic model parameters from a single color image. Estimation of reflectance, shading and specularity has many applications such as shape recovery, specularity removal and facilitates classical image processing and computer vision tasks such as segmentation or classification. Our method is based on two successive and independent constrained quadratic programming steps to recover the parameters of the model. Compared to recent methods, our approach has the advantage to transform a complex inverse problem into two parralelizable optimization steps that are much easier to solve. We have compared our method with r…
An optimized algorithm of image stitching in the case of a multi-modal probe for monitoring the evolution of scars
2013
International audience; We propose a new system that makes possible to monitor the evolution of scars after the excision of a tumorous dermatosis. The hardware part of this system is composed of a new optical innovative probe with which two types of images can be acquired simultaneously: an anatomic image acquired under a white light and a functional one based on autofluorescence from the protoporphyrin within the cancer cells. For technical reasons related to the maximum size of the area covered by the probe, acquired images are too small to cover the whole scar. That is why a sequence of overlapping images is taken in order to cover the required area. The main goal of this paper is to des…
A new minimum trees-based approach for shape matching with improved time computing : application to graphical symbols recognition
2010
Recently we have developed a model for shape description and matching. Based on minimum spanning trees construction and specifics stages like the mixture, it seems to have many desirable properties. Recognition invariance in front shift, rotated and noisy shape was checked through median scale tests related to GREC symbol reference database. Even if extracting the topology of a shape by mapping the shortest path connecting all the pixels seems to be powerful, the construction of graph induces an expensive algorithmic cost. In this article we discuss on the ways to reduce time computing. An alternative solution based on image compression concepts is provided and evaluated. The model no longe…

Interior Eigenvalue Density of Jordan Matrices with Random Perturbations
2017
International audience; We study the eigenvalue distribution of a large Jordan block subject to a small random Gaussian perturbation. A result by E. B. Davies and M. Hager shows that as the dimension of the matrix gets large, with probability close to 1, most of the eigenvalues are close to a circle.We study the expected eigenvalue density of the perturbed Jordan block in the interior of that circle and give a precise asymptotic description.; Nous étudions la distribution de valeurs propres d’un grand bloc de Jordan soumis à une petite perturbation gaussienne aléatoire. Un résultat de E. B. Davies et M. Hager montre que quand la dimension de la matrice devient grande, alors avec probabilité…

Integrability and Non Integrability of Some n Body Problems
2016
International audience; We prove the non integrability of the colinear 3 and 4 body problem, for any positive masses. To deal with resistant cases, we present strong integrability criterions for 3 dimensional homogeneous potentials of degree −1, and prove that such cases cannot appear in the 4 body problem. Following the same strategy, we present a simple proof of non integrability for the planar n body problem. Eventually, we present some integrable cases of the n body problem restricted to some invariant vector spaces.
Spectral approach to D-bar problems
2017
We present the first numerical approach to D-bar problems having spectral convergence for real analytic, rapidly decreasing potentials. The proposed method starts from a formulation of the problem in terms of an integral equation that is numerically solved with Fourier techniques. The singular integrand is regularized analytically. The resulting integral equation is approximated via a discrete system that is solved with Krylov methods. As an example, the D-bar problem for the Davey-Stewartson II equations is considered. The result is used to test direct numerical solutions of the PDE.© 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Annealed Invariance Principle for Random Walks on Random Graphs Generated by Point Processes in R-d
2016
International audience; We consider simple random walks on random graphs embedded in R-d and generated by point processes such as Delaunay triangulations, Gabriel graphs and the creek-crossing graphs. Under suitable assumptions on the point process, we show an annealed invariance principle for these random walks. These results hold for a large variety of point processes including Poisson point processes, Matern cluster and Matern hardcore processes which have respectively clustering and repulsiveness properties. The proof relies on the use the process of the environment seen from the particle. It allows to reconstruct the original process as an additive functional of a Markovian process und…
Optimal control of the atmospheric arc of a space shuttle and numerical simulations with multiple-shooting method
2005
This article, continuation of previous works, presents the applications of geometric optimal control theory to the analysis of the Earth re-entry problem for a space shuttle where the control is the angle of bank, the cost is the total amount of thermal flux, and the system is subject to state constraints on the thermal flux, the normal acceleration and the dynamic pressure. Our analysis is based on the evaluation of the reachable set using the maximum principle and direct computations with the boundary conditions according to the CNES research project\footnote{The project is partially supported by the Centre National d'Etude Spatiales.}. The optimal solution is approximated by a concatenat…
