Accurate sensing of scene geo-context via mobile visual localization

Image geo-tagging has drawn a great deal of attention in recent years. The geographic information associated with images can be used to promote potential applications such as location recognition or virtual navigation. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for accurate mobile image geo-tagging in urban areas. The approach is able to provide a comprehensive set of geo-context information based on the current image, including the real location of the camera and the viewing angle, as well as the location of the captured scene. Moreover, the parsed building facades and their geometric structures can also be estimated. First, for the image to be geo-tagged, we perform partial duplicate image retrieval to filter crowd-sourced images capturing the same scene. We then employ the structure-from-motion technique to reconstruct a sparse 3D point cloud of the scene. Meanwhile, the geometric structure of the query image is analyzed to extract building facades. Finally, by combining the reconstructed 3D scene model and the extracted structure information, we can register the camera location and viewing direction to a real-world map. The captured building location and facade orientation are also aligned. The effectiveness of the proposed system is demonstrated by experiment results.     

Nonlocal variational image segmentation models on graphs using the Split Bregman

Variational functionals such as Mumford-Shah and Chan-Vese methods have a major impact on various areas of image processing. After over 10 years of investigation, they are still in widespread use today. These formulations optimize contours by evolution through gradient descent, which is known for its overdependence on initialization and the tendency to produce undesirable local minima. In this paper, we propose an image segmentation model in a variational nonlocal means framework based on a weighted graph. The advantages of this model are twofold. First, the convexity global minimum (optimum) information is taken into account to achieve better segmentation results. Second, the proposed global convex energy functionals combine nonlocal regularization and local intensity fitting terms. The nonlocal total variational regularization term based on the graph is able to preserve the detailed structure of target objects. At the same time, the modified local binary fitting term introduced in the model as the local fitting term can efficiently deal with intensity inhomogeneity in images. Finally, we apply the Split Bregman method to minimize the proposed energy functional efficiently. The proposed model has been applied to segmentation of real medical and remote sensing images. Compared with other methods, the proposed model is superior in terms of both accuracy and efficient.     

基于Simics的系统级故障注入平台

故障注入技术是评价系统可靠性的有效方法。现有基于仿真的故障注入平台大多基于现场可编程门阵列或超高速集成电路硬件描述语言实现,对故障模型的支持非常有限。为此,基于Simics结构级模拟器,设计并实现系统级硬件故障注入平台。该平台上层支持不同固件、操作系统以及应用程序,底层支持对处理器典型流水部件的故障注入,同时实现瞬时故障、永久故障和间歇故障模型以及其他较全面的故障类型,并将一组系统级故障检测机制集成入平台中。实验通过监测硬件故障在系统级的传播,对比分析了故障对不同部件造成的系统级影响,结果表明,瞬时故障对系统影响较小,永久故障容易引起系统失效,间歇故障对各部件有不同程度的干扰作用。
