This document summarizes different techniques for fusing images from multiple sensors. It discusses how image fusion aims to reduce data volume while retaining important information. Single-sensor fusion involves fusing sequential images, while multi-sensor fusion overcomes single-sensor limitations. Key steps in image fusion systems include registration, preprocessing, and postprocessing. Common fusion methods discussed are in the spatial domain (e.g. weighted averaging, Brovey transform) and transform domain (e.g. discrete wavelet transform). The document evaluates different fusion methods for applications like remote sensing and medical imaging, finding the multiresolution analysis-based intensity modulation method most accurately reproduces high-resolution images.

This document describes a method for watermarking video sequences. It involves applying a discrete wavelet transform to individual frames, generating a pseudorandom key to scramble a watermark image, and adding the watermark to transformed frames before applying an inverse discrete wavelet transform.
The document describes entropy scaling image compression. It reads in an 8-bit image file and creates 7 compressed versions by rounding pixel values to different bit depths from 8 to 2 bits.

The document discusses image compression techniques. It introduces compression goals of minimizing file size while maintaining quality. It then covers compressing grayscale images using global thresholding and Huffman encoding. The document demonstrates this method on a "mask" image, outputting the compression ratio and bits per pixel. It also covers compressing color images using wavelet-based methods like SPIHT. The quality of the compressed "wpeppers" image is assessed using MSE and PSNR metrics.
This document discusses taking the Fourier transform of an image containing lines, shifting the transform so that low frequencies are at the center, and removing some of the Fourier coefficients around the edges to reconstruct the image while filtering out some high frequency information. It loads an image, takes its Fourier transform, shifts it, and removes coefficients outside a central region before taking the inverse Fourier transform and displaying the reconstructed image.
This document summarizes work done to properly apply the discrete cosine transform (DCT) to an image. It was found that shifting pixel values by 128 before applying the DCT was necessary to avoid negative DC coefficient values after reconstruction. Using integer 16 data type for the image instead of uint8 helped preserve pixel values below 128 after reconstruction. Not shifting the data led to incorrect pixel values being lost during reconstruction.
The document describes the Snoop+α protocol, which improves on the Snoop protocol. The Snoop+α agent monitors ACKs passing through the access point and categorizes them as duplicate, spurious, or new. This allows it to detect packet loss without duplicate ACKs and retransmit lost data locally instead of waiting for the fixed host. The protocol provides end-to-end TCP connections while improving performance and reducing delay compared to plain wireless networks.
Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey ...SirmaDuztepeliler
"Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey Toward Sustainability"
The booklet of my master’s thesis at the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. (Gothenburg, Sweden)
This thesis explores the transformation of the vacated (2023) IKEA store in Kållered, Sweden, into a "Reuse Hub" addressing various user types. The project aims to create a model for circular and sustainable economic practices that promote resource efficiency, waste reduction, and a shift in societal overconsumption patterns.
Reuse, though crucial in the circular economy, is one of the least studied areas. Most materials with reuse potential, especially in the construction sector, are recycled (downcycled), causing a greater loss of resources and energy. My project addresses barriers to reuse, such as difficult access to materials, storage, and logistics issues.
Aims:
• Enhancing Access to Reclaimed Materials: Creating a hub for reclaimed construction materials for both institutional and individual needs.
• Promoting Circular Economy: Showcasing the potential and variety of reusable materials and how they can drive a circular economy.
• Fostering Community Engagement: Developing spaces for social interaction around reuse-focused stores and workshops.
• Raising Awareness: Transforming a former consumerist symbol into a center for circular practices.
Highlights:
• The project emphasizes cross-sector collaboration with producers and wholesalers to repurpose surplus materials before they enter the recycling phase.
• This project can serve as a prototype for reusing many idle commercial buildings in different scales and sizes.
• The findings indicate that transforming large vacant properties can support sustainable practices and present an economically attractive business model with high social returns at the same time.
• It highlights the potential of how sustainable practices in the construction sector can drive societal change.
