Human newborns match tongue protrusion of disembodied human and robotic mouths
2011
International audience; No evidence had been provided so far of newborns' capacity to give a matching response to 2D stimuli. We report evidence from 18 newborns who were presented with three types of stimuli on a 2D screen. The stimuli were video-recorded displays of tongue protrusion shown by: (a) a human face, (b) a human tongue from a disembodied mouth, and (c) an artificial tongue from a robotic mouth. Compared to a baseline condition, neonates increased significantly their tongue protrusion when seeing disembodied human and artificial tongue movements, but not when seeing a 2D full-face protruding tongue. This result was interpreted as revealing the exploration of top-heavy patterns o…
Context-aware intelligent video analysis for the management of smart buildings
2019
To date, computer vision systems are limited to extract digital data of what the cameras "see". However, the meaning of what they observe could be greatly enhanced by environment and human-skills knowledge.In this work, we propose a new approach to cross-fertilize computer vision with contextual information, based on semantic modelization defined by an expert.This approach extracts the knowledge from images and uses it to perform real-time reasoning according to the contextual information, events of interest and logic rules. The reasoning with image knowledge allows to overcome some problems of computer vision such as occlusion and missed detections and to offer services such as people guid…
Depth Attention for Scene Understanding
2022
Deep learning models can nowadays teach a machine to realize a number of tasks, even with better precision than human beings. Among all the modules of an intelligent machine, perception is the most essential part without which all other action modules have difficulties in safely and precisely realizing the target task under complex scenes. Conventional perception systems are based on RGB images which provide rich texture information about the 3D scene. However, the quality of RGB images highly depends on environmental factors, which further influence the performance of deep learning models. Therefore, in this thesis, we aim to improve the performance and robustness of RGB models with comple…
Apparence des matériaux, Vision artificielle, Inspection qualité, Reflectance Transformation Imaging
2022
Mastering the visual perception of the surfaces of manufactured products is a central issue for industry. However, in industry, the quality of surfaces is often assessed by human inspectors. Only a few specific cases use an instrumental or photometric approach. Among the photometric approaches, one of them is experiencing significant growth: Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI). However, this technique has limitations in terms of data acquisition and processing. The objective is therefore to correct some of these limitations in order to improve the RTI and, consequently, the visual quality control of surface conditions in industry.The current RTI systems are limited and cannot meet our …
Incommensurate phases of a bosonic two-leg ladder under a flux
2016
A boson two--leg ladder in the presence of a synthetic magnetic flux is investigated by means of bosonization techniques and Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG). We follow the quantum phase transition from the commensurate Meissner to the incommensurate vortex phase with increasing flux at different fillings. When the applied flux is $\rho \pi$ and close to it, where $\rho$ is the filling per rung, we find a second incommensuration in the vortex state that affects physical observables such as the momentum distribution, the rung-rung correlation function and the spin-spin and charge-charge static structure factors.
Finte Pietre. Architettura dell'apparire e conservazione dei valori culturali
2012
Il volume presenta gli esiti di una ricerca incentrata sulla conoscenza delle finiture architettoniche di pietra artificiale, con particolare attenzione agli intonaci brevettati nel 1901 dai fratelli Li Vigni. Le attività di studio sono condotte attraverso la ricognizione dei documenti conservati presso l’Archivio Centrale dello Stato a Roma, e compiono una rigorosa selezione e analisi dei brevetti con l’obiettivo di tracciare il percorso evolutivo dei metodi d’intonacatura ed evidenziare i legami che s’instaurano tra le ricerche in corso nei diversi paesi. Nel XIX secolo i ricercatori di molte nazionalità avviano una selezione critica delle ricette tramandate dal passato e perfezionano pro…
Le superfici di pietra artefatta. Conoscenza e diagnosi per la conservazione.
2009
La tesi di dottorato è incentrata sullo studio delle finiture architettoniche di pietra artificiale realizzate con metodi o ricette coperte da brevetto in Italia. La ricerca, dopo avere descritto le ricette e metodi per simulare le pietre naturali, propone una metodologia analitica diagnostica per la conservazione delle superfici architettoniche e mostra gli esiti delle sue applicazioni sperimentali. The PhD thesis is focused on the study of architectural finishes of artificial stone patented in Italy. The research, after presenting the recipes and methods to simulate natural stones, proposes an analytical diagnostic method for the conservation of architectural surfaces and shows the result…
Use the artificial Intelligent in order to Define Skills in Higher Education
2012
In order to increase the level of learning and the rate of success of students the educational policy tries to find a way to increase simultaneously the skills and the knowledge of students especially in higher education. Many approaches have aimed to find the solutions. To reach this goal normally the combination of the various sciences can be more effective than one branch. Then we interested to know how the other science can help us to be close to this goal. The artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of science that has a very wide domain of using. It can help us in various sciences like electronic, animation, medicine, banking, industries, exploitation, robotic, security and even spea…
How Artificial Intelligence Can link With Human Sciences
2013
International audience; Enhancing students' level of learning and ensuring academic success are the final goals of educational policy. To reach these goals, such policy seeks a way to simultaneously increase the skills and knowledge of students. We were interested to explore how the other sciences can help us draw closer to this goal. We therefore aim to demonstrate in this article an approach to help students at university find solutions to their learning problems. In an attempt to reach this goal, we suggest that other sciences can help us to the extent that the combination of the various sciences can be more effective than a single branch. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of scie…
Du comptage ponctuel à l'affectation par simulation multi-agents : application à la circulation routière de la ville de Dijon
2014
A travers une démarche expérimentale de simulation de la circulation routière pour estimer les pollutions atmosphériques en milieu urbain, cette proposition questionne les opportunités qu'offre la simulation multi-agents pour intégrer des données d'observations du trafic routier au sein d'un système d'information géographique. Pour cela, la construction du modèle d'affectation s'est faite en deux étapes : une première, d'acquisition et de structuration des données de comptages et une seconde visant à interfacer ces données au sein d'une plateforme de simulation multi-agents pour en reproduire la variabilité intra journalière et la fréquentation routière.
