This document presents an enhanced algorithm for obstacle detection and avoidance using a hybrid of plane-to-plane homography, image segmentation, corner detection, and edge detection techniques. The algorithm aims to improve upon previous methods by eliminating false positives, reducing unreliable corners and broken edges, providing depth perception without planar assumptions, and requiring less processing power. The key components of the algorithm include plane-to-plane homography, image segmentation, Canny edge detection, Harris corner detection, and the RANSAC sampling method for system analysis.

Matching algorithm performance analysis for autocalibration method of stereo ...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Stereo vision is one of the interesting research topics in the computer vision field. Two cameras are used to generate a disparity map, resulting in the depth estimation. Camera calibration is the most important step in stereo vision. The calibration step is used to generate an intrinsic parameter of each camera to get a better disparity map. In general, the calibration process is done manually by using a chessboard pattern, but this process is an exhausting task. Self-calibration is an important ability required to overcome this problem. Self-calibration required a robust and good matching algorithm to find the key feature between images as reference. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performance of three matching algorithms for the autocalibration process. The matching algorithms used in this research are SIFT, SURF, and ORB. The result shows that SIFT performs better than other methods.
This document summarizes various methods used to remove metal artifacts from dental CT images. It discusses projection completion methods, filtered back projection, maximum likelihood transmission, iterative reconstruction, and linear interpolation methods. The majority of metal artifact reduction methods involve reconstructing images while accounting for metal objects. Key steps include identifying metal regions, interpolating or weighting missing projection data, and iteratively reconstructing images until artifacts are reduced. Compressed sensing methods can also exploit sparsity to reduce artifacts with fewer angular projections.

New Approach for Detecting and Tracking a Moving Object IJECEIAES
This article presents the implementation of a tracking system for a moving target using a fixed camera. The objective of this work is the ability to detect a moving object and locate their positions. In picture processing, tracking moving objects in a known or unknown environment is commonly studied. It is based on invariance properties of objects of interest. The invariance can affect the geometry of the scene or the objects. The proposed approach is composed of several steps; the first is the extraction of points of interest in the current image. Then, these points will be tracked in the following image by using techniques for calculating the optical flow. After this step, the static points will be removed to focus on moving objects, That is to say, there is only the characteristic points belonging to moving objects. Now, to detect moving targets using images of the video, the background is first extracted from the successive images. In our approach, a method of the average values of every pixel has been developed for modeling background. The last step which stays before switching to tracking moving object is the segmentation which allows identifying every moving object. And by using the characteristic points in the previous steps.
Geometric wavelet transform for optical flow estimation algorithmijcga
This paper described an algorithm for computing the optical flow (OF) vector of a moving objet in a video sequence based on geometric wavelet transform (GWT). This method tries to calculate the motion between two successive frames by using a GWT. It consists to project the OF vectors on a basis of geometric wavelet. Using GWT for OF estimation has been attracting much attention. This approach takes advantage of the geometric wavelet filter property and requires only two frames. This algorithm is fast and able to estimate the OF with a low-complexity. The technique is suitable for video compression, and can be used for stereo vision and image registration.
Pedestrian Counting in Video Sequences based on Optical Flow ClusteringCSCJournals
The demand for automatic counting of pedestrians at event sites, buildings, or streets has been increased. Existing systems for counting pedestrians in video sequences have a problem that counting accuracy degrades when many pedestrians coexist and occlusion occurs frequently. In this paper, we introduce a method of clustering optical flows extracted from pedestrians in video frames to improve the counting accuracy. The proposed method counts the number of pedestrians by using pre-learned statistics, based on the strong correlation between the number of optical flow clusters and the actual number of pedestrians. We evaluate the accuracy of the proposed method using several video sequences, focusing in particular on the effect of parameters for optical flow clustering. We find that the proposed method improves the counting accuracy by up to 25% as compared with a non-clustering method. We also report that using a clustering threshold of angles less than 1 degree is effective for enhancing counting accuracy. Furthermore, we compare the performance of two algorithms that use feature points and lattice points when optical flows are detected. We confirm that the counting accuracy using feature points is higher than that using lattice points especially when the number of occluded pedestrians increases.

Abstract Object tracking is an interesting and needed procedure for many real time applications. But it is a challenging one, because of the presence of challenging sequences with abrupt motion, drastic illumination change, large pose variation, occlusion, cluttered background and also the camera shake. This paper presents a novel method of object tracking by using the algorithms spatio-temporal Markov random field (STMRF) and online discriminative feature selection (ODFS), which overcome the above mentioned problems and provide a better tracking process. This method is also capable of tracking multiple objects in video sequence even in the presence of an object interactions and occlusions that achieves better results with real time performance. Keywords: Video object tracking, spatio-temporal Markov random field (ST-MRF), online discriminative feature selection (ODFS).

Proposition of local automatic algorithm for landmark detection in 3D cephalo...journalBEEI
This study proposes a new contribution to solve the problem of automatic landmarks detection in three-dimensional cephalometry. 3D images obtained from CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) equipment were used for automatic identification of twelve landmarks. The proposed method is based on a local geometry and intensity criteria of skull structures. After the step of preprocessing and binarization, the algorithm segments the skull into three structures using the geometry information of nasal cavity and intensity information of the teeth. Each targeted landmark was detected using local geometrical information of the volume of interest containing this landmark. The ICC and confidence interval (95% CI) for each direction were 0, 91 (0.75 to 0.96) for x- direction; 0.92 (0.83 to 0.97) for y-direction; 0.92 (0.79 to 0.97) for z-direction. The mean error of detection was calculated using the Euclidian distance between the 3D coordinates of manually and automatically detected landmarks. The overall mean error of the algorithm was 2.76 mm with a standard deviation of 1.43 mm. Our proposed approach for automatic landmark identification in 3D cephalometric was capable of detecting 12 landmarks on 3D CBCT images which can be facilitate the use of 3D cephalometry to orthodontists.
This document provides an overview of image processing techniques for traffic applications. It discusses automatic lane finding using color-based and texture-based segmentation as well as feature-driven approaches.

Reeb Graph for Automatic 3D CephalometryCSCJournals
The purpose of this study is to present a method of three-dimensional computed tomographic (3D-CT) cephalometrics and its use to study cranio/maxilla-facial malformations. We propose a system for automatic localization of cephalometric landmarks using reeb graphs. Volumetric images of a patient were reconstructed into 3D mesh. The proposed method is carried out in three steps: we begin by applying 3d mesh skull simplification, this mesh was reconstructed from a head volumetric medical image, and then we extract a reeb graph. Reeb graph mesh extraction represents a skeleton composed in a number of nodes and arcs. We are interested in the node position; we noted that some reeb nodes could be considered as cephalometric landmarks under specific conditions. The third step is to identify these nodes automatically by using elastic mesh registration using “thin plate” transformation and clustering. Preliminary results show a landmarks recognition rate of more than 90%, very close to the manually provided landmarks positions made by a medical stuff.

This document summarizes a study on context-based image segmentation of radiography images to detect defects in welds. The researchers developed a simple image processing technique that uses contextual knowledge about radiography images rather than standard techniques. They first identify regions of interest using edge detection. They then segment potential flaws from the image using a statistical threshold based on the mean and standard deviation of pixel values in neighboring regions, rather than global thresholding. They show their technique successfully segments flaws like porosity and fine cracks from test images. Future work will involve extracting features of segmented flaws and using machine learning for classification.
An Efficient Algorithm for Edge Detection of Corroded SurfaceIJERA Editor
Inspection process in industrial applications plays a vital role as it directly hinders the outages of industry. Thereby the inspection especially in case of corroded surfaces is to be fast, precised and accurate. Visual inspection has been very liable to mistakes because of numerous facts. The automatic inspection systems remove subjective aspects and can provide fast and accurate inspection. Inspection of corroded surfaces is very important concern, thus it is required to detect corroded surfaces. A new algorithm is developed by certain changes in mask and thresholding selection to detect corroded surfaces. The paper is about how we can amend the weak edges of input images and discarding false edges to overcome the problem of traditional techniques in this field. Proposed operator also compared with two commonly used edge detection algorithms which are Canny and Sobel.
Visual tracking using particle swarm optimizationcsandit
The problem of robust extraction of visual odometry from a sequence of images obtained by an
eye in hand camera configuration is addressed. A novel approach toward solving planar
template based tracking is proposed which performs a non-linear image alignment for
successful retrieval of camera transformations. In order to obtain global optimum a biometaheuristic
is used for optimization of similarity among the planar regions. The proposed
method is validated on image sequences with real as well as synthetic transformations and
found to be resilient to intensity variations. A comparative analysis of the various similarity
measures as well as various state-of-art methods reveal that the algorithm succeeds in tracking
the planar regions robustly and has good potential to be used in real applications.

An algorithm to quantify the swelling by reconstructing 3D model of the face with stereo images is presented. We
analyzed the primary problems in computational stereo, which include correspondence and depth calculation. Work has been carried out to determine suitable methods for depth estimation and standardizing volume estimations. Finally we designed software for reconstructing 3D images from 2D stereo images, which was built on Matlab and Visual C++. Utilizing
techniques from multi-view geometry, a 3D model of the face was constructed and refined. An explicit analysis of the stereo
disparity calculation methods and filter elimination disparity estimation for increasing reliability of the disparity map was
used. Minimizing variability in position by using more precise positioning techniques and resources will increase the accuracy of this technique and is a focus for future work
The Technology Research of Camera Calibration Based On LabVIEWIJRES Journal
The technology of camera calibration is most important part for machine vision detection and
location, the accuracy of calibration directly determines the processing accuracy of machine vision systems. In
this paper, we use LabVIEW and MATLAB to calibrate the internal and external parameters of the camera, at
the same time, we use dot calibration board, the circle edge is detected by Canny operator, then with the method
of circle fitting based on subpixel edge extraction, the information of dots image coordinate is extracted. The
present method reduces the difficulty of camera calibration and shortens the software development cycle, the
most important is that it has a high calibration accuracy, which can meet the actual industrial detection accuracy,
the results of experimental show that the method is feasible.
Phase Measuring Deflectometry (PMD) is a full-field 3D shape measurement technique that uses fringe pattern projection and analysis. It works by projecting fringe patterns onto a surface and capturing the reflected patterns with a camera. Fringe analysis is used to extract phase maps from the images, which provide slope information about the surface. Numerical integration of the slopes then allows reconstruction of the full 3D shape. PMD can measure both micro- and macro-scale shapes of specular surfaces. Various system configurations have been developed using different patterns, cameras, and additional sensors to address height-slope ambiguity issues and improve measurement accuracy and resolution. PMD is a low-cost, non-contact method suitable for industrial inspection and
Solving the Pose Ambiguity via a Simple Concentric Circle ConstraintDr. Amarjeet Singh
Estimating the pose of objects with circle feature from images is a basic and important question in computer vision
community. This paper is focused on the ambiguity problem in pose estimation of circle feature, and a new method is proposed based
on the concentric circle constraint. The pose of a single circle feature, in general, can be determined from its projection in the image
plane with a pre-calibrated camera. However, there are generally two possible sets of pose parameters. By introducing the concentric
circle constraint, interference from the false solution can be excluded. On the basis of element at infinity in projective geometry and
the Euclidean distance invariant, cases that concentric circles are coplanar and non-coplanar are discussed respectively. Experiments
on these two cases are performed to validate the proposed method.

Test results show the calibration reading method can accurately recognize readings on high-precision meters.
Leader Follower Formation Control of Ground Vehicles Using Dynamic Pixel Coun...ijma
This paper deals with leader-follower formations of non-holonomic mobile robots, introducing a formation
control strategy based on pixel counts using a commercial grade electro optics camera. Localization of the
leader for motions along line of sight as well as the obliquely inclined directions are considered based on
pixel variation of the images by referencing to two arbitrarily designated positions in the image frames.
Based on an established relationship between the displacement of the camera movement along the viewing
direction and the difference in pixel counts between reference points in the images, the range and the angle
estimate between the follower camera and the leader is calculated. The Inverse Perspective Transform is
used to account for non linear relationship between the height of vehicle in a forward facing image and its
distance from the camera. The formulation is validated with experiments.

The problem of robust extraction of visual odometry from a sequence of images obtained by an
eye in hand camera configuration is addressed. A novel approach toward solving planar
template based tracking is proposed which performs a non-linear image alignment for
successful retrieval of camera transformations. In order to obtain global optimum a biometaheuristic
is used for optimization of similarity among the planar regions. The proposed
method is validated on image sequences with real as well as synthetic transformations and
found to be resilient to intensity variations. A comparative analysis of the various similarity
measures as well as various state-of-art methods reveal that the algorithm succeeds in tracking
the planar regions robustly and has good potential to be used in real applications.

An algorithm to quantify the swelling by reconstructing 3D model of the face with stereo images is presented. We
analyzed the primary problems in computational stereo, which include correspondence and depth calculation. Work has been carried out to determine suitable methods for depth estimation and standardizing volume estimations. Finally we designed software for reconstructing 3D images from 2D stereo images, which was built on Matlab and Visual C++. Utilizing
techniques from multi-view geometry, a 3D model of the face was constructed and refined. An explicit analysis of the stereo
disparity calculation methods and filter elimination disparity estimation for increasing reliability of the disparity map was
used. Minimizing variability in position by using more precise positioning techniques and resources will increase the accuracy of this technique and is a focus for future work

The technology of camera calibration is most important part for machine vision detection and
location, the accuracy of calibration directly determines the processing accuracy of machine vision systems. In
this paper, we use LabVIEW and MATLAB to calibrate the internal and external parameters of the camera, at
the same time, we use dot calibration board, the circle edge is detected by Canny operator, then with the method
of circle fitting based on subpixel edge extraction, the information of dots image coordinate is extracted. The
present method reduces the difficulty of camera calibration and shortens the software development cycle, the
most important is that it has a high calibration accuracy, which can meet the actual industrial detection accuracy,

Phase Measuring Deflectometry (PMD) is a full-field 3D shape measurement technique that uses fringe pattern projection and analysis. It works by projecting fringe patterns onto a surface and capturing the reflected patterns with a camera. Fringe analysis is used to extract phase maps from the images, which provide slope information about the surface. Numerical integration of the slopes then allows reconstruction of the full 3D shape. PMD can measure both micro- and macro-scale shapes of specular surfaces. Various system configurations have been developed using different patterns, cameras, and additional sensors to address height-slope ambiguity issues and improve measurement accuracy and resolution. PMD is a low-cost, non-contact method suitable for industrial inspection and
Solving the Pose Ambiguity via a Simple Concentric Circle ConstraintDr. Amarjeet Singh
Estimating the pose of objects with circle feature from images is a basic and important question in computer vision
community. This paper is focused on the ambiguity problem in pose estimation of circle feature, and a new method is proposed based
on the concentric circle constraint. The pose of a single circle feature, in general, can be determined from its projection in the image
plane with a pre-calibrated camera. However, there are generally two possible sets of pose parameters. By introducing the concentric
circle constraint, interference from the false solution can be excluded. On the basis of element at infinity in projective geometry and
the Euclidean distance invariant, cases that concentric circles are coplanar and non-coplanar are discussed respectively. Experiments
on these two cases are performed to validate the proposed method.

Leader Follower Formation Control of Ground Vehicles Using Dynamic Pixel Coun...ijma
This paper deals with leader-follower formations of non-holonomic mobile robots, introducing a formation
control strategy based on pixel counts using a commercial grade electro optics camera. Localization of the
leader for motions along line of sight as well as the obliquely inclined directions are considered based on
pixel variation of the images by referencing to two arbitrarily designated positions in the image frames.
Based on an established relationship between the displacement of the camera movement along the viewing
direction and the difference in pixel counts between reference points in the images, the range and the angle
estimate between the follower camera and the leader is calculated. The Inverse Perspective Transform is
used to account for non linear relationship between the height of vehicle in a forward facing image and its
distance from the camera. The formulation is validated with experiments.

Rainfall intensity duration frequency curve statistical analysis and modeling...bijceesjournal
Using data from 41 years in Patna’ India’ the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981−2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall’ the historical rainfall data set for Patna’ India’ during a 41 year period (1981−2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 h and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval.
Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall.
Originality and value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.
