Abstract:
Nowadays, some roads pass through underground tunnels due to technical inadequacy and high economic costs in constructing highways, railways, and pedestrians. Tunnels are opened to pass through obstacles on the route (mountain, hill, etc.) to force the driver, disturb him, reduce the ramps that could endanger safety depending on nature’s state, and shorten travel distances. In this way, number of tunnels along with the road increases, and illuminating these tunnels with different characteristics varies day and night. Tunnel illumination calculations and applications are essential as good tunnel illumination ensures the same flow of comfort, speed, and safety as on the approaching road. Moreover, with the advancement of tunnel technology, many types of equipment are used inside and outside the tunnel, and electricity needs vary according to these types of equipment. In this research, the importance of tunnel illumination was discussed and comparative illumination analysis in 8 August tunnel in Bitlis was conducted. Illumination for the Bitlis 8 August tunnel was done using luminaires with high-pressure sodium vapor lamps, and the grid was used to generate all the energy required. In this study, the energy used by the Bitlis 8 August tunnel for illumination was obtained from the accurate data and the results were compared with the initial situation when the same system was installed using light emitting diode (LED) illumination technology.

Abstract:
Poor imaging is frequently observed in many subsalt regions, making the subsalt stratigraphy interpretation and prospect evaluation challenging. We propose a critical reflection illumination analysis to evaluate subsalt illumination in areas where high-velocity contrasts create illumination and imaging shadows. Critical reflection often occurs at the base or flank of salt bodies. If critical reflection occurred, continued iterations of processing and imaging would generate little, if any, improvement in imaging results. Similarly, increasing the offset/azimuth of the acquisition would offer limited or no advantage. We introduce the critical reflection illumination map and illumination rose diagram to efficiently and effectively evaluate the probability of critical reflection for the target. This analysis can help avoid expensive processing, imaging, and acquisition efforts for areas that are in the critical/postcritical reflection regime. Critical reflection illumination analysis can also be applied to other high-velocity contrast scenarios.

Abstract:
We present a wave-equation-based method for seismic illumination analysis. A one-way wave-equation-based, generalized screen propagator is used to extrapolate the wavefields from sources and receivers to the subsurface target. A local plane-wave analysis is used at the target to calculate localized, directional energy fluxes for both source and receiver wavefields. We construct an illumination matrix using these energy fluxes to quantify the target illumination conditions. The target geometry information is used to manipulate the illumination matrix and generate different types of illumination measures. The wave-equation-based approach can properly handle forward multiple-scattering phenomena, including focusing/defocusing, diffraction, and interference effects. It can be directly applied to complex velocity models. Velocity-model smoothing and Fresnel-zone smoothing are not required. Different illumination measurements derived from this method can be applied to target-oriented or volumetric illumination analyses. This new method is flexible and practical for illumination analysis in complex 2D and 3D velocity models with nontrivial acquisition and target geometries.

Abstract:
In order to study the influence by non-uniformity of illumination on testing performance of optical measurement system, the causes of non-uniformity were analyzed. We constructed the relationship model between interval distance of LED light source and illumination. The distribution of illumination with different intervals of LED were simulated. Then relationship model between viewing-field angle at object plane of optical system and illumination was established. Influence of viewing-field angle at object plane on distribution of illumination was studied. The experimental results indicate that non-uniform light source and wide viewing-field angle are two main causes for non-uniformity in optical imaging system. Larger interval distance of LED or viewing-field angle will result in non-uniformity of illumination.

Abstract:
As the demand for electrical energy increases daily, it has become inevitable to use electrical energy more efficiently and economically. To reduce foreign dependency in energy in our country, various steps are taken to bring the areas where energy is used under the focus and to bring the existing systems to a better level with technology. 20 % of the energy consumed in our country is used in illumination. The share of road illumination is high illumination. Besides, since the control and observability of the road illumination inside the external illumination are easy, it is easier for countries to work in this field. New generation technologies are rapidly adopted, followed, and applied in our country. Light sources and luminaires used in road illumination have constantly changed with technology. High-pressure sodium vapor lamps are primarily used in road illumination in our country. In addition, LED luminaires, which are considered a new generation illumination technology, have startedto find wide use in this market. A comparative analysis of luminaires with high-pressure sodium vapor lamps and LED luminaires used in road illumination was made in this study. DIALux program was used to compare these analyses.

Abstract:
Introduction: During night flying operations, Night Vision Goggles (NVGs) help the aircrew to visualize by intensifying lights reflected from an object. Night sky illumination and image intensification mechanism are the two important factors that affect visual acuity (VA) through NVG. Hence, assessment of visual acuity through Gen 2++ and Gen 3 NVG under different illumination conditions and comparative analysis between the two NVGs was the desired objective of the study. Material and Methods: In a prospective repetitive measure design, a total of 60 volunteered subjects were examined for their VA through Gen 2++ and Gen 3 NVGs using USAF Tri-Bar Chart in the eye lane room of the NVG Lab. The VA was measured under four different illumination conditions; full moon (FM), half moon (HF)quarter moon (QM), and starlight (SL) conditions. The measured VA was converted to logMAR values and analyzed. Results: VA deteriorated significantly with decreasing illuminations through both Gen 2++ (χ2 = 149.9, P < 0.001) and Gen 3 NVGs (χ2 = 156.5, P < 0.001). For Gen 2++ NVG, the difference in VA was statistically significant in all conditions other than between FM and HM. Whereas, it was almost significant for all illumination conditions for Gen 3 NVG. The VA through Gen 2++ was better than Gen 3 in all conditions and the difference in VA widened with decreasing illuminations. Conclusion: VA declined with decreasing illuminations for Gen 2++ as well as Gen 3 NVG, even though, the difference was not significant between FM and HM for Gen 2++ NVG. VA was observed to be consistently better through Gen 2++ NVG compared to Gen 3 across all four illumination conditions. However, keeping in view the dynamic changes in night sky illuminations during flying operations, the findings of the study need to be validated in operational conditions.

Abstract The illuminations in two Italian manuscripts are still a mystery today. Both manuscripts were based fully or partly on the Florentine Squarcialupi Codex (Florence, Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Med. Pal. 87) dating from around 1410/15. With the help of a multi-analytical, non-destructive approach employing mobile instrumentation (XRF spectroscopy, visible reflectance spectroscopy and infrared reflectography), we examined the manuscripts Toronto, Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library, MSS 09700 and Düsseldorf, Kunstpalast, Inv. K 1925-67 for the first time with regard to their production processes. The identification of modern pigments allows them to be contextualized in illumination practices of the 19th century. Manuals of that time provide a wealth of information on specific illumination practices and the availability of writing and painting materials, which correlates with the actual artefacts.

Abstract:
Problems in automated video surveillance analysis caused by illumination changes are explored, and solutions are presented. Controlled experiments are first conducted to measure the responses of color targets to changes in lighting intensity and spectrum. Surfaces of dissimilar color are found to respond significantly differently. Illumination compensation model error is reduced by 70% to 80% by individually optimizing model parameters for each distinct color region, and applying a model tuned for one region to a chromatically different region increases error by a factor of 15. A background model--called BigBackground--is presented to extract large, stable, chromatically self-similar background features by identifying the dominant colors in a scene. The stability and chromatic diversity of these features make them useful reference points for quantifying illumination changes. The model is observed to cover as much as 90% of a scene, and pixels belonging to the model are 20% more stable on average than non-member pixels. Several illumination compensation techniques are developed to exploit BigBackground, and are compared with several compensation techniques from the literature. Techniques are compared in terms of foreground / background classification, and are applied to an object tracking pipeline with kinematic and appearance-based correspondence mechanisms. Compared with other techniques, BigBackground-based techniques improve foreground classification by 25% to 43%, improve tracking accuracy by an average of 20%, and better preserve object appearance for appearance-based trackers. All algorithms are implemented in C or C++ to support the consideration of runtime performance. In terms of execution speed, the BigBackground-based illumination compensation technique is measured to run on par with the simplest compensation technique used for comparison, and consistently achieves twice the frame rate of the two next-fastest techniques.

Abstract:
Les images de synthèse sont présentes à travers un grand nombre d'applications tel que les jeux vidéo, le cinéma, l'architecture, la publicité, l'art, la réalité virtuelle, la visualisation scientifique, l'ingénierie en éclairage, etc. En conséquence, la demande en photoréalisme et techniques de rendu rapide ne cesse d'augmenter. Le rendu réaliste d'une scène virtuelle nécessite l'estimation de son illumination globale grâce à une simulation du transport de lumière, un processus coûteux en temps de calcul dont la vitesse de convergence diminue généralement lorsque la complexité de la scène augmente. En particulier, une forte illumination indirecte combinée à de nombreuses occlusions constitue une caractéristique globale de la scène que les techniques existantes ont du mal à gérer. Cette thèse s'intéresse à ce problème à travers l'application de techniques d'analyse de formes pour le rendu 3D.Notre principal outil est un squelette curviligne du vide de la scène, représenté par un graphe contenant des informations sur la topologie et la géométrie de la scène. Ce squelette nous permet de proposer de nouvelles méthodes pour améliorer des techniques de rendu temps réel et non temps réel. Concernant le rendu temps réel, nous utilisons les informations géométriques du squelette afin d'approximer le rendu des ombres projetés par un grand nombre de points virtuels de lumière représentant l'illumination indirecte de la scène 3D.Pour ce qui est du rendu non temps réel, nos travaux se concentrent sur des algorithmes basés sur l'échantillonnage de chemins, constituant actuellement le principal paradigme en rendu physiquement plausible. Notre squelette mène au développement de nouvelles stratégies d'échantillonnage de chemins, guidés par des caractéristiques topologiques et géométriques. Nous adressons également ce problème à l'aide d'un second outil d'analyse de formes: la fonction d'ouverture du vide de la scène, décrivant l'épaisseur locale du vide en chacun de ses points. Nos contributions offrent une amélioration des méthodes existantes and indiquent clairement que l'analyse de formes offre de nombreuses opportunités pour le développement de nouvelles techniques de rendu 3D
Nowadays, computer generated images can be found everywhere, through a wide range of applications such as video games, cinema, architecture, publicity, artistic design, virtual reality, scientific visualization, lighting engineering, etc. Consequently, the need for visual realism and fast rendering is increasingly growing. Realistic rendering involves the estimation of global illumination through light transport simulation, a time consuming process for which the convergence rate generally decreases as the complexity of the input virtual 3D scene increases. In particular, occlusions and strong indirect illumination are global features of the scene that are difficult to handle efficiently with existing techniques. This thesis addresses this problem through the application of discrete shape analysis to rendering. Our main tool is a curvilinear skeleton of the empty space of the scene, a sparse graph containing important geometric and topological information about the structure of the scene. By taking advantage of this skeleton, we propose new methods to improve both real-time and off-line rendering methods. Concerning real-time rendering, we exploit geometric information carried by the skeleton for the approximation of shadows casted by a large set of virtual point lights representing the indirect illumination of the 3D scene. Regarding off-line rendering, our works focus on algorithms based on path sampling, that constitute the main paradigm of state-of-the-art methods addressing physically based rendering. Our skeleton leads to new efficient path sampling strategies guided by topological and geometric features. Addressing the same problem, we also propose a sampling strategy based on a second tool from discrete shape analysis: the opening function of the empty space of the scene, describing the local thickness of that space at each point. Our contributions demonstrate improvements over existing approaches and clearly indicate that discrete shape analysis offers many opportunities for the development of new rendering techniques

Abstract:
Abstract The colours of objects perceived by a colour camera are dependent on the illumination conditions. For example, when the prevailing illumination condition does not correspond to the one used in the white balancing of the camera, the object colours can change their appearance due to the lack of colour constancy capabilities. Many methods for colour constancy have been suggested but so far their performance has been inadequate. Faces are common and important objects encountered in many applications. Therefore, this thesis is dedicated to studying face colours and their robust use under real world illumination conditions. The main thesis statement is "knowledge about an object's colour, like skin colour changes under different illumination conditions, can be used to develop more robust techniques against illumination changes". Many face databases exist, and in some cases they contain colour images and even videos. However, from the point of view of this thesis these databases have several limitations: unavailability of spectral data related to image acquisition, undefined illumination conditions of the acquisition, and if illumination change is present it often means only change in illumination direction. To overcome these limitations, two databases, a Physics-Based Face Database and a Face Video Database were created. In addition to the images, the Physics-Based Face Database consists of spectral data part including skin reflectances, channel responsivities of the camera and spectral power distribution of the illumination. The images of faces are taken under four known light sources with different white balancing illumination conditions for over 100 persons. In addition to videos, the Face Video Database has spectral reflectances of skin for selected persons and images taken with the same measurement arrangement as in the Physics-Based Face Database. The images and videos are taken with several cameras. The databases were used to gather information about skin chromaticities and to provide test material. The skin RGB from images were converted to different colour spaces and the result showed that the normalized colour coordinate was among the most usable colour spaces for skin chromaticity modelling. None of the colour spaces could eliminate the colour shifts in chromaticity. The obtained chromaticity constraint can be implemented as an adaptive skin colour modelling part of face tracking algorithms, like histogram backprojection or mean shift. The performances of these adaptive algorithms were superior compared to those using a fixed skin colour model or model adaptation based on spatial pixel selection. Of course, there are cases when the colour cue is not enough alone and use of other cues like motion or edge data would improve the result. It was also demonstrated that the skin colour model can be used to segment faces and the segmentation results depend on the background due to the method used. Also an application for colour correction using principal component analysis and a simplified dichromatic reflection model was shown to improve colour quality of seriously clipped images. The results of tracking, segmentation and colour correction experiments using the collected data validate the thesis statement.

Abstract:

Any generic computer vision algorithm must be able to copewith the variations in appearance of objects due to differentillumination conditions. While these variations in the shadingof a surface may seem a nuisance, they in fact containinformation about the world. This thesis tries to provide anunderstanding what information can be extracted from theshading in a single image and how to achieve this. One of thechallenges lies in finding accurate models for the wide varietyof conditions that can occur.

Frequency space representations are powerful tools foranalyzing shading theoretically. Surfaces act as low-passfilters on the illumination making the reflected lightband-limited. Hence, it can be represented by a finite numberof components in the Fourier domain, despite having arbitraryillumination. This thesis derives a basis for shading byrepresenting the illumination in spherical harmonics and theBRDF in a basis for isotropic reflectance. By analyzing thecontributing variance of this basis it is shown how to createfinite dimensional representations for any surface withisotropic reflectance.

The finite representation is used to analytically derive aprincipal component analysis (PCA) basis of the set of imagesdue to the variations in the illumination and BRDF. The PCA isperformed model-based so that the variations in the images aredescribed by the variations in the illumination and the BRDF.This has a number of advantages. The PCA can be performed overa wide variety of conditions, more than would be practicallypossible if the images were captured or rendered. Also, thereis an explicit mapping between the principal components and theillumination and BRDF so that the PCA basis can be used as aphysical model.

By combining a database of captured illumination and adatabase of captured BRDFs a general basis for shading iscreated. This basis is used to investigate materialclassification from a single image with known geometry butarbitrary unknown illumination. An image is classified byestimating the coecients in this basis and comparing them to adatabase. Experiments on synthetic data show that materialclassification from reflectance properties is hard. There aremis-classifications and the materials seem to cluster intogroups. The materials are grouped using a greedy algorithm.Experiments on real images show promising results.

Abstract:
Cette thèse introduit un cadre théorique pour l'étude de différents schémas d'échantillonnage dans un domaine sphérique, et de leurs effets sur le calcul d'intégrales pour l'illumination globale. Le calcul de l'illumination (du transport lumineux) est un composant majeur de la synthèse d'images réalistes, qui se traduit par l'évaluation d'intégrales multidimensionnelles. Les schémas d'intégration numériques de type Monte-Carlo sont utilisés intensivement pour le calcul de telles intégrales. L'un des aspects majeurs de tout schéma d'intégration numérique est l'échantillonnage. En effet, la façon dont les échantillons sont distribués dans le domaine d'intégration peut fortement affecter le résultat final. Par exemple, pour la synthèse d'images, les effets liés aux différents schémas d'échantillonnage apparaissent sous la forme d'artéfacts structurés ou, au contrire, de bruit non structuré. Dans de nombreuses situations, des résultats complètement faux (biaisés) peuvent être obtenus à cause du schéma d'échantillonnage utilisé pour réaliser l'intégration. La distribution d'un échantillonnage peut être caractérisée à l'aide de son spectre de Fourier. Des schémas d'échantillonnage peuvent être générés à partir d'un spectre de puissance dans le domaine de Fourier. Cette technique peut être utilisée pour améliorer l'erreur d'intégration, car un tel contrôle spectral permet d'adapter le schéma d'échantillonnage au spectre de Fourier de l'intégrande. Il n'existe cependant pas de relation directe entre l'erreur dans l'intégration par méthode de Monte-Carlo et le spectre de puissance de la distribution des échantillons. Dans ces travaux, nous proposons une formulation de la variance qui établit un lien direct entre la variance d'une méthode de Monte-Carlo, les spectres de puissance du schéma d'échantillonnage ainsi que de l'intégrande. Pour obtenir notre formulation de la variance, nous utilisons la notion d'homogénéité de la distribution des échantillons qui permet d'exprimer l'erreur de l'intégration par une méthode de Monte-Carlo uniquement sous forme de variance. À partir de cette formulation de la variance, nous développons un outil d'analyse pouvant être utilisé pour déterminer le taux de convergence théorique de la variance de différents schémas d'échantillonnage proposés dans la littérature. Notre analyse fournit un éclairage sur les bonnes pratiques à mettre en œuvre dans la définition de nouveaux schémas d'échantillonnage basés sur l'intégrande
This dissertation introduces a theoretical framework to study different sampling patterns in the spherical domain and their effects in the evaluation of global illumination integrals. Evaluating illumination (light transport) is one of the most essential aspect in image synthesis to achieve realism which involves solving multi-dimensional space integrals. Monte Carlo based numerical integration schemes are heavily employed to solve these high dimensional integrals. One of the most important aspect of any numerical integration method is sampling. The way samples are distributed on an integration domain can greatly affect the final result. For example, in images, the effects of various sampling patterns appear in the form of either structural artifacts or completely unstructured noise. In many cases, we may get completely false (biased) results due to the sampling pattern used in integration. The distribution of sampling patterns can be characterized using their Fourier power spectra. It is also possible to use the Fourier power spectrum as input, to generate the corresponding sample distribution. This further allows spectral control over the sample distributions. Since this spectral control allows tailoring new sampling patterns directly from the input Fourier power spectrum, it can be used to improve error in integration. However, a direct relation between the error in Monte Carlo integration and the sampling power spectrum is missing. In this work, we propose a variance formulation, that establishes a direct link between the variance in Monte Carlo integration and the power spectra of both the sampling pattern and the integrand involved. To derive our closed-form variance formulation, we use the notion of homogeneous sample distributions that allows expression of error in Monte Carlo integration, only in the form of variance. Based on our variance formulation, we develop an analysis tool that can be used to derive theoretical variance convergence rates of various state-of-the-art sampling patterns. Our analysis gives insights to design principles that can be used to tailor new sampling patterns based on the integrand

Abstract:
The purpose of this research is to ascertain potential iris scan data variations from near infrared waves derived from fluorescent illumination. Prior studies of iris data variances from infrared wave interference of halogen, incandescent, and sunlight with iris cameras suggest that similar changes may exist under near infrared wavelengths from fluorescent light. The concern is that the fluorescent energy emission may interfere with the near infrared detection of an iris camera. An iris camera is used to measure human eye characteristics known as biometrics. If such infrared emission is statistically significant, then it can alter the validity of the iris scan data. The experiment utilized nine hundred forty-five (945) scans from sixty-three (63) subjects. Measured results showed increased heat from ambient fluorescent illumination does not statistically alter the biometric readings of human eyes. The test results fail to reject that data loss will not occur as heat is increased in the ambient fluorescent light source.

Abstract:
Diseases are often the consequence of proteins or protein complexes that are non-functional or that function improperly. An active area of research has focused on the identification of molecules that can interact with defective proteins and restore their function. While 22% percent of human proteins are estimated to be druggable, less than fifteen percent are targeted by FDA-approved drugs, and the vast majority of untargeted proteins are understudied or so-called "dark" proteins. Elucidation of the function of these dark proteins, particularly those in commonly drug-targeted protein families, may offer therapeutic opportunities for many diseases. Reactome is the most comprehensive, open-access pathway knowledgebase covering 2585 pathways and including 14246 reactions, 11088 proteins, 13984 complexes, and 1093 drugs. Placing dark proteins in the context of Reactome pathways provides a framework of reference for these proteins facilitating the generation of hypotheses for experimental biologists to develop targeted experiments, unravel the potential functions of these proteins, and then design drugs to manipulate them. To this end, we have trained a random forest with 106 protein/gene pairwise features collected from multiple resources to predict functional interactions between dark proteins and proteins annotated in Reactome and then developed three scores to measure the interactions between dark proteins and Reactome pathways based on enrichment analysis and fuzzy logic simulations. Literature evidence via manual checking and systematic NLP-based analysis support predicted interacting pathways for dark proteins. To visualize dark proteins in the context of Reactome pathways, we have also developed a new website, idg.reactome.org, by extending the Reactome web application with new features illustrating these proteins together with tissue-specific protein and gene expression levels and drug interactions.

Abstract:
Commercial agriculture has come under increasing pressure to reduce nitrogen fertilizer inputs in order to minimize potential nonpoint source pollution of ground and surface waters. This has resulted in increased interest in site specific fertilizer management. One way to solve pollution problems would be to determine crop nutrient needs in real time, using remote detection, and regulating fertilizer dispensed by an applicator. By detecting actual plant needs, only the additional nitrogen necessary to optimize production would be supplied. This research aimed to develop techniques for real time assessment of nitrogen status of corn using a mobile sensor with the potential to regulate nitrogen application based on data from that sensor. Specifically, the research first attempted to determine the system parameters necessary to optimize reflectance spectra of corn plants as a function of growth stage, chlorophyll and nitrogen status. In addition to that, an adaptable, multispectral sensor and the signal processing algorithm to provide real time, in-field assessment of corn nitrogen status was developed. Spectral characteristics of corn leaves reflectance were investigated in order to estimate the nitrogen status of the plants, using a commercial laboratory spectrometer. Statistical models relating leaf N and reflectance spectra were developed for both greenhouse and field plots. A basis was established for assessing nitrogen status using spectral reflectance from plant canopies. The combined effect of variety and N treatment was studied by measuring the reflectance of three varieties of different leaf characteristic color and five different N treatments. The variety effect on the reflectance at 552 nm was not significant (a = 0.01), while canonical discriminant analysis showed promising results for distinguishing different variety and N treatment, using spectral reflectance. Ambient illumination was found inappropriate for reliable, one-beam spectral reflectance measurement of the plants canopy due to the strong spectral lines of sunlight. Therefore, artificial light was consequently used. For in-field N status measurement, a dark chamber was constructed, to include the sensor, along with artificial illumination. Two different approaches were tested (i) use of spatially scattered artificial light, and (ii) use of collimated artificial light beam. It was found that the collimated beam along with a proper design of the sensor-beam geometry yielded the best results in terms of reducing the noise due to variable background, and maintaining the same distance from the sensor to the sample point of the canopy. A multispectral sensor assembly, based on a linear variable filter was designed, constructed and tested. The sensor assembly combined two sensors to cover the range of 400 to 1100 nm, a mounting frame, and a field data acquisition system. Using the mobile dark chamber and the developed sensor, as well as an off-the-shelf sensor, in- field nitrogen status of the plants canopy was measured. Statistical analysis of the acquired in-field data showed that the nitrogen status of the com leaves can be predicted with a SEP (Standard Error of Prediction) of 0.27%. The stage of maturity of the crop affected the relationship between the reflectance spectrum and the nitrogen status of the leaves. Specifically, the best prediction results were obtained when a separate model was used for each maturity stage. In-field assessment of the nitrogen status of corn leaves was successfully carried out by non contact measurement of the reflectance spectrum. This technology is now mature to be incorporated in field implements for on-line control of fertilizer application.
