Remote heart rate variability for emotional state monitoring
2018
International audience; Several researches have been conducted to recognize emotions using various modalities such as facial expressions , gestures, speech or physiological signals. Among all these modalities, physiological signals are especially interesting because they are mainly controlled by the autonomic nervous system. It has been shown for example that there is an undeniable relationship between emotional state and Heart Rate Variability (HRV). In this paper, we present a methodology to monitor emotional state from physiological signals acquired remotely. The method is based on a remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) algorithm that estimates remote Heart Rate Variability (rHRV) using a …
multimodal and multi-criteria analysis for the expertise and locating faults in modern electrical components
2017
The purpose of this manuscript is to exhibit the research work solving the issue of data processing stem from defect localization techniques. This step being decisive in the failure analysis process, scientists have to harness data coming from light emission and laser techniques. Nevertheless, this analysis process is sequential and only depends on the expert’s decision. This factor leads to a not quantified probability of localization. Consequently to solve these issues, a multimodaland multicriteria analysis has been developped, taking advantage of the heterogeneous and complementary nature of light emission and laser probing techniques. This kind of process is based on advanced level too…

No-Reference 3D Mesh Quality Assessment Based on Dihedral Angles Model and Support Vector Regression
2016
International audience; 3D meshes are subject to various visual distortions during their transmission and geometrical processing. Several works have tried to evaluate the visual quality using either full reference or reduced reference approaches. However, these approaches require the presence of the reference mesh which is not available in such practical situations. In this paper, the main contribution lies in the design of a computational method to automatically predict the perceived mesh quality without reference and without knowing beforehand the distortion type. Following the no-reference (NR) quality assessment principle, the proposed method focuses only on the distorted mesh. Specific…
Les squelettes : structures d'interaction directe et intuitive avec des formes 3D
2014
The interactions in shape creation graphic applications are far from natural. The user tends to avoid as much as possible such applications and prefer to sketch or model his/her shape.To bridge this widening gap between computer and the general public, we focus on skeletons. They are intuitive shape representation models that we propose to use as direct and intuitive interaction structures.All skeletons suffer from very low quality as shape representation models, concerning the geometry of the shape they capture, the quantity of skeletal noise they contain or the lack of useful organization of their elements. Moreover, some functionalities that must be granted to skeletons are only partiall…
Nonlocal discrete ∞-Poisson and Hamilton Jacobi equations
2015
In this paper we propose an adaptation of the ∞-Poisson equation on weighted graphs, and propose a finer expression of the ∞-Laplace operator with gradient terms on weighted graphs, by making the link with the biased version of the tug-of-war game. By using this formulation, we propose a hybrid ∞-Poisson Hamilton-Jacobi equation, and we show the link between this version of the ∞-Poisson equation and the adaptation of the eikonal equation on weighted graphs. Our motivation is to use this extension to compute distances on any discrete data that can be represented as a weighted graph. Through experiments and illustrations, we show that this formulation can be used in the resolution of many ap…
Deep Convolutional Neural Network Based Object Detection Inference Acceleration Using FPGA
2022
Object detection is one of the most challenging yet essential computer vision research areas. It means labeling and localizing all known objects of interest on an input image using tightly fit rectangular bounding boxes around the objects. Object detection, having passed through several evolutions and progressions, nowadays relies on the successes of image classification networks based on deep convolutional neural networks. However, as the depth and complication of convolutional neural networks increased, detection speed reduced, and accuracy increased. Unfortunately, most computer vision applications, such as real-time object tracking on an embedded system, requires lightweight, fast and a…
Comparison of region of interest segmentation methods for video-based heart rate measurements
2018
International audience; Conventional contact photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors are not suitable in situations of skin damage or when unconstrained movement is required. As a consequence, remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) has recently emerged because it provides remote physiological measurements without expensive hardware and improves comfort for long-term monitoring. RPPG estimation methods use the spatially averaged RGB values of pixels in a Region Of Interest (ROI) to generate a temporal RGB signal. The selection of ROI is a critical first step to obtain reliable pulse signals and must contain as many skin pixels as possible with a low percentage of non-skin pixels. In this paper, we ex…
ICDAR 2021 Competition on Historical Document Classification
2021
International audience; This competition investigated the performance of historical document classification. The analysis of historical documents is a difficult challenge commonly solved by trained humanists. We provided three different classification tasks, which can be solved individually or jointly: font group/script type, location, date. The document images are provided by several institutions and are taken from handwritten and printed books as well as from charters. In contrast to previous competitions, all participants relied upon Deep Learning based approaches. Nevertheless, we saw a great performance variety of the different submitted systems. The easiest task seemed to be font grou…
Adaptative Image Flow in Collaborative Medical Telediagnosis Environments
2011
International audience; Telemedicine, the application of telecommunication in the medicine field, has been developed to meet major problems encountered in connecting doctors with patients and other medical staff. Having a robust and efficient telemedical system has always been a challenge. The system needs to make the members in different locations capable of sharing medical data efficiently and without errors. In this work, we present a telemedical system that overcomes these challenges.We deploy a collaborative system and adapt data to store, visualize, modify and transfer fluorescence images efficiently and robustly at the same time. We also make the system adaptive to communicate across…
