Improved estimation of the left ventricular ejection fraction using a combination of independent automated segmentation results in cardiovascular mag…

2014

—This work aimed at combining different segmenta-tion approaches to produce a robust and accurate segmentation result. Three to five segmentation results of the left ventricle were combined using the STAPLE algorithm and the reliability of the resulting segmentation was evaluated in comparison with the result of each individual segmentation method. This comparison was performed using a supervised approach based on a reference method. Then, we used an unsupervised statistical evaluation, the extended Regression Without Truth (eRWT) that ranks different methods according to their accuracy in estimating a specific biomarker in a population. The segmentation accuracy was evaluated by focusing o…

Vers le développement d'un capteur photoplétysmographique sans contact

2019

Heart-rate estimation performed with remote photoplethysmography is a very active research field. Since pioneer works in 2010, which demonstrated the feasibility of the measure with low-grade consumers’ camera (webcam), the number of scientific publications have increased significantly in the domain. Hence, we observe a multiplication of the methods in order to retrieve the photoplethysmographic signal which has led to an increased precision and quality of the heart-rate estimation. Region of interest segmentation is a key step of the processing pipeline in order to maximize the quality of the measured signal. We propose a new method to perform remote photoplethysmographic measurement using…

Terahertz Biomedical Imaging: From Multivariate Analysis and Detection to Material Parameter Extraction

2017

Terahertz imaging is an interesting route for biomedical analysis. In particular, cancer imaging is a subject of study for different teams [1,2]. A work is done in Bordeaux in partnership with a hospital to do terahertz analysis of breast tissue. This work is done in reflection with time domain imaging setup with fresh samples. The aim is to accurately assess tumor margins and which could in the future allow a quick validation of the precision of the surgical procedure and know if new surgery should be performed. We have presented in a previous paper [3] the use of automatic methods of image generation with different parameters [4] in order to explore the different contrasts that exist in t…

In vitro simulation of spiral waves in cardiomyocyte networks using multi-electrode array technology

Développement opérationnel en grandes cultures semées en ligne d’une rampe de pulvérisation grande largeur localisée sur le rang

2019

National audience; Pour réduire l’utilisation des herbicides, une des solutions possibles est de ne traiter que le rang en post-levée et de biner l’inter-rang ensuite. Terres Inovia, en collaboration avec la Coopérative Agricole Lorraine, a mis en place des essais au champ sur colza et tournesol avec la rampe localisée Marechal, dans le but de mettre au point cette technique pour des rampes de grande largeur avec une bonne qualité de pulvérisation sur le rang et un type de guidage adapté à des terres à colza, plus irrégulières que les terres à betterave sur lesquelles la rampe avait été développée. L’objectif est également d’évaluer les efficacités de la technique (satisfaction du désherbag…

Robotics for weed control: I-Weed Robot for a specific spraying

2012

International audience; To preserve environment for a sustainable agriculture, we explore the development of a new autonomous robot, called I-Weed Robot (Intelligent Weed Robot), which aims at reducing herbicides in crop fields (maize, sunflower...). Using a high precision positioning signal (RTK) to locate the robot in the field, a Kaman filter and a proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID controller) allow adjusting the orientation of the robot depending on a predefined trajectory. As for the spraying system, a camera in front of the mobile platform detects weed plants thanks to an image processing based on a crop/weed discrimination algorithm (Hough Transform). At the back a spr…
