In Vivo Nuclear Imaging of Hypoxia as Predictive Biomarkers and follow up the Response to Anti-VEGF Therapies in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
2022
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive and fatal disease of unknown origin. In France, it is one of the most common interstitial pathologies (IP) and affects 4,400 new people each year. IPF is characterized by dysregulated healing mechanisms that lead to the accumulation of large amounts of collagen in the lung tissue and cause disorganization of the alveolar architecture. It results in progressive deterioration of the respiratory function, leading in a few years to chronic respiratory failure and then to death. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has a lower survival rate than many cancers with a median survival of 2 to 5 years from diagnosis. This pathology whose main ris…
A multilight approach for documenting and modeling the appearance of large cultural heritage objects
2022
In recent years, Computer Vision has played a major role in the investigation of sur-face appearance, particularly with the introduction of image-based rendering algorithms. Reflectance transformation Imaging (RTI) is one of these approaches. The RTI is a multi-light imaging technique that involves taking a series of images of an item using a stationary camera, while the location of the incident light varies in each photograph. Thanks to the information gathered from this type of acquisition, which is also defined as a Multi-light Image Collection (MLIC), it is possible to model the angular reflectance of a surface. The RTI is frequently employed in the documentation and study of architectu…
Synthesis and study of new fluorescent probes for optical imaging, Cherenkov imaging and multimodal imaging
2015
The goal of this work was to prepare and study new fluorescent probes, which could give rise to novel optical or Cherenkov imaging agents. The first section of this work describes the synthesis of fluorescent subphthalocyanines and phthalocyanines probes, which possess relevant chemicals groups suitable for optical imaging applications. The optical and physico-chemical properties of the new probes were carefully examined to ensure they comply with the specification of the fluorophores for the desired application. The second part focused on the subsequent development of a few selected probes into real imaging agents. The biovectorisation of subphtalocyanines was achieved upon conjugation of …
Understand and optimize mental strategies during motor learning
2022
Motor imagery-based motor learning, also known as mental practice, can improve motor performance. However, questions remain concerning the mechanisms involved in mental practice, at the neurophysiological and behavioral levels. In a first study, we show an increase of short-interval intracortical inhibition during motor imagery, supporting the hypothesis that motor imagery induces the generation of an inhibited motor command. In a second study, we show modulations in functional connectivity between the cerebellum and the primary motor cortex following a mental practice session, corroborating at the neurophysiological level the hypothesis of the involvement and updating of internal models af…
Alternative methods for strength development : the case of motor imagery and neuromuscular electrical stimulation
2020
An intense practice of resistance training, i.e. with heavy loads and a low number of repetitions, can cause injuries. To avoid them or limit detraining after an injury, alternative training methods have been developed. These methods have a double target since they also allow populations with different pathologies to practice a physical activity. This thesis focused particularly on the neuromuscular system and the mechanisms involved in strength development on plantar flexors muscles following motor imagery (MI), i.e. mental simulation of a movement without its concomitant motor output, and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), i.e. evoking contractions through electrical current app…

Color and multispectral image processing for the detection of inflammatory lesions of the stomach
2019
The work presented in this manuscript is part of the ANR project EMMIE. This project aims to develop an innovative multimodal system for the detection of inflammatory lesions in the stomach. To this purpose, a prototype has been developed to be able to acquire NBI endoscopic images and multispectral images during human's antrum exploration. The prototype is made of a standard endoscope and multispectral images.The prototype can acquire two types of data: NBI images and spectra. These two modalities are processed independently. Common image processing features are used to recognize four kind of diseases: active gastritis, chronic gastritis, metaplasia and atrophy. In addition, visual based f…
Identification of markers that can be recognised using spectroscopic sensors and which reflect key stages in the cooking of meat and fish
2016
One of the purposes of the Opticook project is to install spectroscopic sensors in ovens, so equipping them with non intrusive tools allowing following cooking process of meat and fish. The hypothesis on which sensors were developed was: are muscular proteins proper probes to discriminate among several cooking degrees? Thus, at the beginning of the project several tools were used to characterise effect of several cooking degrees on macroscopic properties (texture and colour) of beef, chicken and cod fillet samples. Following, calorimetry and spectroscopic techniques were used to study transformations at molecular scale. In particular, visible spectroscopy followed denaturation of haemprotei…
Polarization stereoscopic imaging prototype
2011
The polarization of light was introduced last ten years ago in the field of imaging system is a physical phenomenon that can be controlled for the purposes of the vision system. As that found in the human eyes, in general the imaging sensors are not under construction which is sensitive to the polarization of light. These properties can be measured by adding optical components on a conventional camera. The purpose of this thesis is to develop an imaging system that is sensitive both to the stereoscopic and to the state of polarization. As well as the visual system on a various of insects in nature such as bees, that are have capability to move in space by extracted relevant information from…
Design, Development and Evaluation of a System for the Detection of Aerial Parts and Measurement of Growth Indices of Bell Pepper Plant Based on Ster…
2022
During the growth of plants, monitoring them brings much benefits to the producers. This monitoring includes the measurement of physical properties, counting plants leaves, detection of plants and separation of them from weeds. All these can be done different techniques, however, the techniques are favorable that are non-destructive because plant is a very sensitive creature that any manipulation can put disorder in its growth or lead to losing leaves or branches. Imaging techniques are of the best solutions for plants growth monitoring and geometric measurements. In this regard, in this project the use of stereo imaging and multispectral data was studied. Active and passive stereo imaging …
