A Novel Segmentation and Feedback Model for Resolving Contention in Optical Burst Switching

A novel segmentation and feedback model (SFM) applied to resolve contention is proposed. Simulation and performance analyses show that the SFM effectively avoids contentions in optical burst switching (OBS). The long delay time of deflection routing and the immature technology of wavelength converters and optical buffers are not deployed in the SFM. The SFM does not only realize fast switching but also allows preemption by higher priority bursts.     

基于曲率的透视不变性分割

曲线的透视不变性分割在基于二次曲线的三维重建中非常重要。首先给出了连续曲线零曲率点和角点的提取法，在数字图像中曲经是不连续的，曲率的变化受噪声的干扰很大。在这种情况下为了检测出零曲率点和角点，对曲线采用了高斯滤波然后再提到零曲率点和角点。实验证明这种方法效果优于直接求曲率法。     

A snake for model-based segmentation of biomedical images

In this work we present a snake based approach for the segmentation of images of computerized tomography (CT) scans. We introduce a new term for the internal energy and another one for external energy which solve common problems associated with classical snakes in this type of images. A simplified minimizing method is also presented.     

Learning-based dynamic coupling of discrete and continuous trackers

We present a data-driven dynamic coupling between discrete and continuous methods for tracking objects of high dofs, which overcomes the limitations of previous techniques. In our approach, two trackers work in parallel, and the coupling between them is based on the tracking error. We use a model-based continuous method to achieve accurate results and, in cases of failure, we re-initialize the model using our discrete tracker. This method maintains the accuracy of a more tightly coupled system, while increasing its efficiency. At any given frame, our discrete tracker uses the current and several previous frames to search into a database for the best matching solution. For improved robustness, object configuration sequences, rather than single configurations, are stored in the database. We apply our framework to the problem of 3D hand tracking from image sequences and the discrimination between fingerspelling and continuous signs in American Sign Language.

基于模糊度测度和改进遗传算法的图像分割

为了利用模糊集理论进行图像分割,本文提出了一种模糊度测度函数,它衡量了背景模糊集和某一个二值图像的相似性:模糊度越小,这种相似程度越大;并且对模糊度的计算只需要进行简单的比较运算和加法运算,便于硬件实现。本文利用遗传算法求取最佳阈值,针对遗传算法的某些不足之处.我们利用精英策略和模拟退火的思想,对其做了一些修正。实验结果表明:相对于Shannon熵方法和模糊熵方法,本文方法取得了较好的分割结果,并且具有较强的抗噪声能力。

Pedestrian detection and tracking in infrared imagery using shape and appearance

In this paper, we present an approach toward pedestrian detection and tracking from infrared imagery using joint shape and appearance cues. A layered representation is first introduced and a generalized expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is developed to separate infrared images into background (still) and foreground (moving) layers regardless of camera panning. In the two-pass scheme of detecting pedestrians from the foreground layer: shape cue is first used to eliminate non-pedestrian moving objects and then appearance cue helps to locate the exact position of pedestrians. Templates with varying sizes are sequentially applied to detect pedestrians at multiple scales to accommodate different camera distances. To facilitate the task of pedestrian tracking, we formulate the problem of shot segmentation and present a graph matching-based tracking algorithm that jointly exploits the shape, appearance and distance information. Experimental results with both OSU Infrared Image Database and WVU Infrared Video Database are reported to demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of our algorithm.
