Full textIncludes supplemental materials
Weaknesses in the Fast Hessian detector utilized by the speeded-up robust features (SURF) algorithm are examined in this research. We evaluate the SURF algorithm to identify possible areas for improvement in the performance. A proposed alternative to the SURF detector is proposed called rotated SURF (R-SURF). This method utilizes filters that are rotated 45 degrees counter-clockwise, and this modification is tested with standard detector testing methods against the regular SURF detector. Performance testing shows that the R-SURF outperforms the regular SURF detector when subject to image blurring, illumination changes and compression. Based on the testing results, the R-SURF detector outperforms regular SURF slightly when subjected to affine (viewpoint) changes. For image scale and rotation transformations, R-SURF outperforms for very small transformation values, but the regular SURF algorithm performs better for larger variations. The application of this research in the larger recognition process is also discussed.

O foveamento ? uma t?cnica de vis?o computacional capaz de promover a redu??o da informa??o visual atrav?s de uma transforma??o da imagem, em dom?nio espacial, para o dom?nio de multirresolu??o. Entretanto, esta t?cnica se limita a uma ?nica f?vea com mobilidade dependente do contexto. Neste trabalho s?o propostas a defini??o e a constru??o de um modelo multifoveado denominado MMMF (multifoveamento em multirresolu??o com f?veas m?veis) baseado em um modelo anterior denominado MMF (multirresolu??o com f?vea m?vel). Em um contexto de m?ltiplas f?veas, a aplica??o de v?rias estruturas MMF, uma para cada f?vea, resulta em um consider?vel aumento de processamento, uma vez que h? interse??es entre regi?es de estruturas distintas, as quais s?o processadas m?ltiplas vezes. Dadas as estruturas de f?veas MMF, propomos um algoritmo para obter regi?es disjuntas que devem ser processadas, evitando regi?es redundantes e, portanto, reduzindo o tempo de processamento. Experimentos s?o propostos para validar o modelo e verificar a sua aplicabilidade no contexto de vis?o computacional. Resultados demonstram o ganho em termos de tempo de processamento do modelo proposto em rela??o ao uso de m?ltiplas f?veas do modelo MMF.
Foveation is a computer vision technique for visual information reduction obtained by applying an image transformation in the spatial domain to the multiresolution domain. However, this technique is limited to a single fovea context-dependent mobility. This work proposes the definition and the construction of a multifoveated model called MMMF (Multiresolution Multifoveation using Mobile Foveae) based on an earlier model called MMF (Multiresolution with Moving Fovea). In the context of multiple foveae, the application of various MMF structures, one for each fovea, results in an increase in processing time, since there are intersections between regions of different structures, which are processed multiple times. Given MMF structures, an algorithm in order to get disjoint regions which are to be processed is proposed, avoiding redundant regions and thereby reducing the processing time. Experiments are proposed to validate the model and to verify its applicability in the computer vision context. Results show the gain in processing time of the proposed model compared to the use of multiple MMF structures.

Resumo: Descritores locais robustos normalmente compõem-se de vetores de características de alta dimensionalidade para descrever atributos discriminativos em imagens. A alta dimensionalidade de um vetor de características implica custos consideráveis em termos de tempo computacional e requisitos de armazenamento afetando o desempenho de várias tarefas que utilizam descritores de características, tais como correspondência, recuperação e classificação de imagens. Para resolver esses problemas, pode-se aplicar algumas técnicas de redução de dimensionalidade, escencialmente, construindo uma matrix de projeção que explique adequadamente a importancia dos dados em outras bases. Esta dissertação visa aplicar técnicas de redução linear de dimensionalidade aos descritores SIFT e SURF. Seu principal objetivo é demonstrar que, mesmo com o risco de diminuir a precisão dos vetores de caraterísticas, a redução de dimensionalidade pode resultar em um equilíbrio adequado entre tempo computacional e recursos de armazenamento. A redução linear de dimensionalidade é realizada por meio de técnicas como projeções aleatórias (RP), análise de componentes principais (PCA), análise linear discriminante (LDA) e mínimos quadrados parciais (PLS), a fim de criar vetores de características de menor dimensão. Este trabalho avalia os vetores de características reduzidos em aplicações de correspondência e de recuperação de imagens. O tempo computacional e o uso de memória são medidos por comparações entre os vetores de características originais e reduzidos
Abstract: Robust local descriptors usually consist of high dimensional feature vectors to describe distinctive characteristics of images. The high dimensionality of a feature vector incurs into considerable costs in terms of computational time and storage requirements, which affects the performance of several tasks that employ feature vectors, such as matching, image retrieval and classification. To address these problems, it is possible to apply some dimensionality reduction techniques, by building a projection matrix which explains adequately the importance of the data in other basis. This dissertation aims at applying linear dimensionality reduction to SIFT and SURF descriptors. Its main objective is to demonstrate that, even risking to decrease the accuracy of the feature vectors, the dimensionality reduction can result in a satisfactory trade-off between computational time and storage. We perform the linear dimensionality reduction through Random Projections (RP), Independent Component Analysis (ICA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Partial Least Squares (PLS) in order to create lower dimensional feature vectors. This work evaluates such reduced feature vectors in a matching application, as well as their distinctiveness in an image retrieval application. The computational time and memory usage are then measured by comparing the original and the reduced feature vectors.

Full textCentered around feature extraction, the core task of any Face recognition system, our objective is devising a robust facial representation against major challenges, such as variations of illumination, pose and time-lapse and low resolution probe images, to name a few. Besides, fast processing speed is another crucial criterion. Towards these ends, several methods have been proposed through out this thesis. Firstly, based on the orientation characteristics of the facial information and important features, like the eyes and mouth, a novel variant of LBP, referred as ELBP, is designed for encoding micro patterns with the usage of an horizontal ellipse sample. Secondly, ELBP is exploited to extract local features from oriented edge magnitudes images. By this, the Elliptical Patterns of Oriented Edge Magnitudes (EPOEM) description is built. Thirdly, we propose a novel feature extraction method so called Patch based Local Phase Quantization of Monogenic components (PLPQMC). Lastly, a robust facial representation namely Local Patterns of Gradients (LPOG) is developed to capture meaningful features directly from gradient images. Chiefs among these methods are PLPQMC and LPOG as they are per se illumination invariant and blur tolerant. Impressively, our methods, while offering comparable or almost higher results than that of existing systems, have low computational cost and are thus feasible to deploy in real life applications

Full textChikungunya virus infection is an emergent arthropod-borne alpha-virus transmitted by mosquito bites, and causes fever with debilitating arthritic illness. Chikungunya virus infection is still considered as an emerging public health problem in both tropical and temperate regions. The presence of favourable conditions in temperate regions has enabled propagation of the vector, leading to the emergence of the first autochthonous cases of CHIKV in Europe and the USA. Older people may be particularly concerned about infection during an outbreak. CVhikungunya virus infection prevalence rates are not fully known, and vary from 18% to 48% The use of predictive scores would thus be very helpful in this situation. We have showed that predictive scores developed in young population have poor diagnostic performances in elderly population. In fact, the populations described in observational studies of chikungunya virus infection were predominantly young subjects. Clinical and epidemiological data in older subjects (aged 65 and over) are sparse. The mortality and morbidity related to infection in elderly people is poorly documented. We showed that the usual clinical expression of CHIKV infection is different in elderly subjects (absence of fever, arthralgia or both). We have developed and validated a new Chikungunya virus infection screening score specifically for use in the aged population.Some questions remain, in particular concerning mid- or long-term consequences of infection in elderly people. In a preliminary study, we have showed that the mid-term mortality rate of aged people infected by Chikungunya was lower than that of uninfected aged people.We need to continue our work on this thematic to explore more precisely the consequences of chikungunya virus infection in elderly people (mid- and long-term mortality, loss of autonomy, chronic form…)

Full text3D geometry modelling tools and 3D scanners become more enhanced and to a greater degree affordable today. Thus, development of the new algorithms in geometry processing, shape analysis and shape correspondence gather momentum in computer graphics. Those algorithms steadily extend and increasingly replace prevailing methods based on images and videos. Non-rigid shape correspondence or deformable shape matching has been a long-studied subject in computer graphics and related research fields. Not to forget, shape correspondence is of wide use in many applications such as statistical shape analysis, motion cloning, texture transfer, medical applications and many more. However, robust and efficient non-rigid shape correspondence still remains a challenging task due to fundamental variations between individual subjects, acquisition noise and the number of degrees of freedom involved in correspondence search. Although dynamic 2D/3D intra-subject shape correspondence problem has been addressed in the rich set of previous methods, dynamic inter-subject shape correspondence received much less attention. The primary purpose of our research is to develop a novel, efficient, robust deforming shape analysis and correspondence framework for animated meshes based on their dynamic and motion properties. We elaborate our method by exploiting a profitable set of motion data exhibited by deforming meshes with time-varying embedding. Our approach is based on an observation that a dynamic, deforming shape of a given subject contains much more information rather than a single static posture of it. That is different from the existing methods that rely on static shape information for shape correspondence and analysis.Our framework of deforming shape analysis and correspondence of animated meshes is comprised of several major contributions: a new dynamic feature detection technique based on multi-scale animated mesh’s deformation characteristics, novel dynamic feature descriptor, and an adaptation of a robust graph-based feature correspondence approach followed by the fine matching of the animated meshes.

Full textThis thesis in ergonomics is part of an industrial design project of an innovative e-health system (HADAGIO), developed by the company SESIN and allowing home support frail elderly. Its goal was applied to produce ergonomic recommendations for improving the interfaces of the system proposed in the form of a web portal software to make them easier to use and thus promote the final acceptance HADAGIO the device.This work has focused on the task of locating information on a screen and, in particular, the role of perceptual features (color and detail) lexical icons and labels on achieving performance of this task by elders. This task is indeed particularly difficult for this people who get lower localization performances than young people (reaction times and a larger number of errors). The models proposed for the target location task assumes that the knowledge possessed by individuals on the appearance of the target to locate allow improved performance. Given that advancing age does not affect the process involving knowledge stored in memory (Top Down type) implemented in this task it was to determine what could be the color of the role and Details of the target level in the implementation of these processes at a location task information.Graphics recommendations for HADAGIO portal interface design have emerged from this work, and provide information to facilitate the localization task for the elderly

Full textHigh throughput technologies allow us to measure very high amounts of variables in patients: DNA sequence, gene expression, lipid profile… Knowledge discovery can be performed on such data using, for instance, classification methods. However, those data contain a very high number of variables, which are measured, in the best cases, on a few hundreds of patients. This makes feature selection a necessary first step so as to reduce the risk of overfitting, reduce computation time, and improve model interpretability. When the amount of observations is low, feature selection tends to be unstable. It is common to observe that two selections obtained from two different datasets dealing with the same problem barely overlap. Yet, it seems important to obtain a stable selection if we want to be confident that the selected variables are really relevant, in an objective of knowledge discovery. In this work, we first tried to determine which factors have the most influence on feature selection stability. We then proposed a feature selection method, specific to microarray data, using functional annotations from Gene Ontology in order to assist usual feature selection methods, with the addition of a priori knowledge to the data. We then worked on two aspects of ensemble methods: the choice of the aggregation method, and hybrid ensemble methods. In the final chapter, we applied the methods studied in the thesis to a dataset from our lab, dealing with the prediction of weight regain after a diet, from microarray data, in obese patients

Full textAbstract : Introduction: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects more than 1% of children. Common characteristics associated with ASD are difficulties in communication and social interaction, as well as repetitive interests and behaviors. Some restricted or repetitive interests and behaviors may be linked to difficulties in sensory processing. Indeed, between 45% and 95% of children with ASD have sensory featuresaffecting their functioning in everyday life. However, the data available in the scientific literature give us little knowledge about the evolution of sensory abilities in children with ASD. Objective:The main objective of this project was to evaluatethe evolution of sensory features in children with ASD between the age of 3-4 years (T1) and two years after (T2), when they entered school. Methods:This project is a secondary analysisof untreated data from a previous prospective study (from 2008 to 2010).In the presentproject, a retrospective correlation design was usedto study 34 children with ASD. The data from standardized assessment tools were used to evaluate children's sensory features over time, the Sensory Profile (SP) and the Short Sensory Profile (SSP), were analyzed. Results:Our analyses demonstratea stability of sensory features in children with ASD from the age of three to six years old. The stability of sensory scores is independent of correction by covariates such as mental age and autism severity. Conclusions: The persistence of sensory features in children with ASD highlights the need to adequately assess this aspect and to consider it when planning and monitoring interventions. Indeed, in order to improve their functioning in everyday life and increase their social integration, it is important to take into account their persistent sensory features.
Leveau, Valentin. "Représentations d'images basées sur un principe de voisins partagés pour la classification fine." Thesis, Montpellier, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016MONTT257/document.
Full textThis thesis focuses on the issue of fine-grained classification which is a particular classification task where classes may be visually distinguishable only from subtle localized details and where background often acts as a source of noise. This work is mainly motivated by the need to devise finer image representations to address such fine-grained classification tasks by encoding enough localized discriminant information such as spatial arrangement of local features.To this aim, the main research line we investigate in this work relies on spatially localized similarities between images computed thanks to efficient approximate nearest neighbor search techniques and localized parametric geometry. The main originality of our approach is to embed such spatially consistent localized similarities into a high-dimensional global image representation that preserves the spatial arrangement of the fine-grained visual patterns (contrary to traditional encoding methods such as BoW, Fisher or VLAD Vectors). In a nutshell, this is done by considering all raw patches of the training set as a large visual vocabulary and by explicitly encoding their similarity to the query image. In more details:The first contribution proposed in this work is a classification scheme based on a spatially consistent k-nn classifier that relies on pooling similarity scores between local features of the query and those of the similar retrieved images in the vocabulary set. As this set can be composed of a lot of local descriptors, we propose to scale up our approach by using approximate k-nearest neighbors search methods. Then, the main contribution of this work is a new aggregation-based explicit embedding derived from a newly introduced match kernel based on shared nearest neighbors of localized feature vectors combined with local geometric constraints. The originality of this new similarity-based representation space is that it directly integrates spatially localized geometric information in the aggregation process.Finally, as a third contribution, we proposed a strategy to drastically reduce, by up to two orders of magnitude, the high-dimensionality of the previously introduced over-complete image representation while still providing competitive image classification performance.We validated our approaches by conducting a series of experiments on several classification tasks involving rigid objects such as FlickrsLogos32 or Vehicles29 but also on tasks involving finer visual knowledge such as FGVC-Aircrafts, Oxford-Flower102 or CUB-Birds200. We also demonstrated significant results on fine-grained audio classification tasks such as the LifeCLEF 2015 bird species identification challenge by proposing a temporal extension of our image representation. Finally, we notably showed that our dimensionality reduction technique used on top of our representation resulted in highly interpretable visual vocabulary composed of the most representative image regions for different visual concepts of the training base

Full textTrisomy 21 (t21) or Down syndrome is the most frequent genetic disorder associated with intellectual disability. Although research on the social stereotype toward t21 is very limited, it seems that persons with t21 are typically viewed as “affectionate” and “happy”; with positive personality traits prevailing over the negative ones (e.g., “mentally retarded”). However, this positive stereotype coexists with ambivalent attitudes. The main objective of this study was to investigate the stereotype at the implicit level and the impact of t21 facial features on the stereotype of t21 at the both explicit and implicit levels. Our results confirm, on one hand, a positive social stereotype explicit in samples of young adult students, non-student adults and professional caregivers working with intellectually disabled persons. The positive bias typically found in explicit judgments of children with t21 is smaller for those whose facial features are highly characteristic of this disorder, compared to their counterparts with less distinctive features and to typically developing children. On the other hand, we also show that this bias can coexist with negative evaluations at the implicit level, even among professional caregivers but to a lesser extent. We study the influence of individual variables sex, familiarity with the t21 and implicit theories of intelligence on explicit and implicit stereotypes. Finally, we show a negative relationship between t21 typicality of faces and the judgment of the intelligence as we do not observe a significant relationship between typicality and the cognitive level. We discuss the implications of these results

Full textThe thesis tackles the question of the semantic identity of the Russian prepositions « в » and « нa » establishing for each of them a relational basic scheme, by building their ideographic configuration, by grouping together their semantic relations in order to explain the polysemous use of them. It is argued that the meaning of the preposition is a complex system, where the abstract meaning of the preposition is specified by a number of semantic elements (ideographic and relational features) which are part of the context in which settle the various fields of application of the preposition. The Russian and French prepositional systems diverge because the semantico-relational fields of the prepositions are different in both languages : the character of the relation (activation of the ideographic features) and the number of entities in contact, governed by such or such preposition, differ from one language to another

Full textOne of the challenges of planetary science is the age determination of the surfaces of the different celestial bodies in the solar system, to understand their formation and evolution processes. An approach relies on the analysis of the crater impact density and size. Due to the huge quantity of data to process, automatic approaches have been proposed for automatically detecting impact craters in order to facilitate this dating process. They generally use the color values from images or the elevation values from Digital Elevation Model (DEM). In this PhD thesis, we propose a new approach for detecting craters rims. The main idea is to combine curvature analysis with Neural Network based classification. This approach contains two main steps: first, each vertex of the mesh is labeled with the value of the minimal curvature; second, this curvature map is injected into a neural network to automatically detect the shapes of interest. The results show that detecting forms are more efficient using a two-dimensional map based on the computation of discrete differential estimators, than by the value of the elevation at each vertex. This approach significantly reduces the number of false negatives compared to previous approaches based on topographic information only. The validation of the method is performed on DEMs of Mars, acquired by a laser altimeter aboard NASA’s Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft and combined with a database of manually identified craters

Full textThe spatio-temporal variability of runoff and erosion is not new fact. Their characteristics are generally estimated with a reasonable margin on plots of a few tens of square meters. With the increase of the surface, the heterogeneity of environment increases which induces a scale effect. The passage of the plot to the catchment is not totally controlled because of the complexity and variability of factors come into play. The objective of this thesis is to understand the processes of runoff and erosion in different environments and at different spatial scales, to identify the sources of variation, and to develop a methodology for implementation of the results of field scale to the basin outlet. To this end, a network of eighteen plots of different sizes, two hydrological units were used to quantify runoff and soil loss on the main surface features Watershed Tougou.The results obtained on micro-plots of 1 m², plots of 50 and 150 m², hydrologic units of 6 and 34 ha and the catchment area of 37 km², show that, both in cultivated soils and on bare soils, the runoff excess decreases as the area increases, for the same rain and prior comparable humidity conditions of the soil. This phenomenon of the scale effect of the area on runoff is known to hydrologists who still face the challenge of extrapolating results obtained on small areas to larger areas. Our results show that the scale effect observed on the runoff is mainly due to the spatial heterogeneity of soils (hydraulic properties, microrelief) and its variability (state of the variables) and that temporal dynamics of the intensity of rain just amplifies it. The results obtained in tests of transposition can maintain with reason that a better extrapolation of data from the field scale across the pond comes from the consideration of the issues of hydrologic connectivity.Ultimately, this study highlights the value of measurements of runoff on homogeneous units in terms of land use that may represent a heterogeneous mosaic of homogeneous areas. The location on the watershed and the rate of connectivity of the hydrologic units within which the dominant processes of runoff occur can allow approach the solution of the problem of scale transfer

Full textChronic myeloid leukemia is a clonal hematopoietic malignancy, characterized by the acquisition of the t (9;22) translocation leading to Ph1 chromosome and its counterpart BCR-ABL oncogene, in a very primitive hematopoietic stem cell. CML is a model of targeted therapies as the proof of concept of the feasibility of targeting the tyrosine kinase (TK) activity BCR-ABL using TK inhibitors (TKI) has been shown to lead to major responses and remissions. However, the current problems encountered in these therapies are primitive leukemic stem cells resistance and their persistence which is thought to be related to the heterogeneity of the stem cells at diagnosis leading to clonal selection of cells resisting to TKI therapies. I have applied the technology of single cell transcriptome analysis to CML cells using a panel of genes involved in different pathways combined with trajectory inference analysis to the gene expression pattern. The results showed a transitional stem cell states including embryonic genes identified in CML cells at diagnosis which could contribute to LSC resistance and persistence. Furthermore, the oncoprotein Bcr-Abl is the constitutively active tyrosine kinase produced by the chimeric BCR-ABL gene in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The transcriptional targets of Bcr-Abl in leukemic cells have not been extensively studied. A transcriptome experiment using the hematopoietic UT7 cell line expressing BCR-ABL, has identified the overexpression of eukaryotic elongation factor kinase 2 (eEF2K) which plays a major role in the survival of cells upon nutrient deprivation. Overall, the data suggest that overexpression of eEF2K in CML is associated with an increased sensitivity to nutrient-deprivation

Full textHyperspectral imagery allows to acquire a rich spectral information of a scene in several hundred or even thousands of narrow and contiguous spectral bands. However, with the high number of spectral bands, the strong inter-bands spectral correlation and the redundancy of spectro-spatial information, the interpretation of these massive hyperspectral data is one of the major challenges for the remote sensing scientific community. In this context, the major challenge is to reduce the number of unnecessary spectral bands, that is, to reduce the redundancy and high correlation of spectral bands while preserving the relevant information. Therefore, projection approaches aim to transform the hyperspectral data into a reduced subspace by combining all original spectral bands. In addition, band selection approaches attempt to find a subset of relevant spectral bands. In this thesis, firstly we focus on hyperspectral images classification attempting to integrate the spectro-spatial information into dimension reduction in order to improve the classification performance and to overcome the loss of spatial information in projection approaches.Therefore, we propose a hybrid model to preserve the spectro-spatial information exploiting the tensor model in the locality preserving projection approach (TLPP) and to use the constraint band selection (CBS) as unsupervised approach to select the discriminant spectral bands. To model the uncertainty and imperfection of these reduction approaches and classifiers, we propose an evidential approach based on the Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST). In the second step, we try to extend the hybrid model by exploiting the semantic knowledge extracted through the features obtained by the previously proposed approach TLPP to enrich the CBS technique. Indeed, the proposed approach makes it possible to select a relevant spectral bands which are at the same time informative, discriminant, distinctive and not very redundant. In fact, this approach selects the discriminant and distinctive spectral bands using the CBS technique injecting the extracted rules obtained with knowledge extraction techniques to automatically and adaptively select the optimal subset of relevant spectral bands. The performance of our approach is evaluated using several real hyperspectral data

Full textRecently, search engines have become the main source of information for many users and have been widely used in different fields. However, Information Retrieval Systems (IRS) face new challenges due to the growth and diversity of available data. An IRS analyses the query submitted by the user and explores collections of data with unstructured or semi-structured nature (e.g. text, image, video, Web page etc.) in order to deliver items that best match his/her intent and interests. In order to achieve this goal, we have moved from considering the query-document matching to consider the user context. In fact, the user profile has been considered, in the literature, as the most important contextual element which can improve the accuracy of the search. It is integrated in the process of information retrieval in order to improve the user experience while searching for specific information. As time factor has gained increasing importance in recent years, the temporal dynamics are introduced to study the user profile evolution that consists mainly in capturing the changes of the user behavior, interests and preferences, and updating the profile accordingly. Prior work used to discern short-term and long-term profiles. The first profile type is limited to interests related to the user's current activities while the second one represents user's persisting interests extracted from his prior activities excluding the current ones. However, for users who are not very active, the short-term profile can eliminate relevant results which are more related to their personal interests. This is because their activities are few and separated over time. For users who are very active, the aggregation of recent activities without ignoring the old interests would be very interesting because this kind of profile is usually changing over time. Unlike those approaches, we propose, in this thesis, a generic time-sensitive user profile that is implicitly constructed as a vector of weighted terms in order to find a trade-off by unifying both current and recurrent interests. User profile information can be extracted from multiple sources. Among the most promising ones, we propose to use, on the one hand, searching history. Data from searching history can be extracted implicitly without any effort from the user and includes issued queries, their corresponding results, reformulated queries and click-through data that has relevance feedback potential. On the other hand, the popularity of Social Media makes it as an invaluable source of data used by users to express, share and mark as favorite the content that interests them

Full textLarge improvements have been obtained in major pig populations for traits included in the breeding goal, i.e. growth, feed efficiency, carcass composition and, in maternal lines, sow prolificacy. Animals selected for high production efficiency may in particular be more sensitive to behavioral, physiological, or immunological problems, I.e., be less robust. These adverse effects of selection are often difficult to reveal, as corresponding traits are not routinely recorded in breeding programs. The use of stored frozen semen has been shown to be an elegant method to estimate genetic trends for a large number of (usually not recorded) traits. Two experimental groups (L77 and L98) were produced by inseminating French Large White (LW) sows born in 1997-1998 with either stored frozen semen from the above-mentioned 1977 LW boars or with fresh semen from LW boars born in 1998. This study has shown that 2 decades of selection have resulted in large gains for major traits of interest, but have also adversely affected traits such as longevity, risk of mortality, trait variability, which tend to indicate an unfavorable effect of selection on pig robustness. Our results stress the necessity to integrate robustness related traits in the breeding goal of pig populations. Thus, further research is needed to better characterize the different components of robustness and their impact on pig efficiency, welfare and health to be able to define the most relevant breeding objectives for the future

Full textImage segmentation has become an indispensable task that is widely employed in several image processing applications including object detection, object tracking, automatic driver assistance, and traffic control systems, etc. The literature abounds with algorithms for achieving image segmentation tasks. These methods can be divided into some main groups according to the underlying approaches, such as Region-based image segmentation, Feature-based clustering, Graph-based approaches and Artificial Neural Network-based image segmentation. Recently, complex networks have mushroomed both theories and applications as a trend of developments. Hence, image segmentation techniques based on community detection algorithms have been proposed and have become an interesting discipline in the literature. In this thesis, we propose a novel framework for community detection based image segmentation. The idea that brings social networks analysis domain into image segmentation quite satisfies with most authors and harmony in those researches. However, how community detection algorithms can be applied in image segmentation efficiently is a topic that has challenged researchers for decades. The contribution of this thesis is an effort to construct best complex networks for applying community detection and proposal novel agglomerate methods in order to aggregate homogeneous regions producing good image segmentation results. Besides, we also propose a content based image retrieval system using the same features than the ones obtained by the image segmentation processes. The proposed image search engine for real images can implement to search the closest similarity images with query image. This content based image retrieval relies on the incorporation of our extracted features into Bag-of-Visual-Words model. This is one of representative applications denoted that image segmentation benefits several image processing and computer visions applications. Our methods have been tested on several data sets and evaluated by many well-known segmentation evaluation metrics. The proposed methods produce efficient image segmentation results compared to the state of the art

Full textA striking aspect of flowering plants is that, although they seem to display a great diversity of size and shape, they are made of the same basics constituents, that is the cells. The major challenge is then to understand how multicellular tissues, originally undifferentiated, can give rise to such complex shapes. We first investigated the uncharacterised signalling network of auxin since it is a major phytohormone involved in flower organogenesis.We started by determining the potential binary network, then applied model-based graph clustering methods relying on connectivity profiles. We demonstrated that it could be summarise in three groups, closely related to putative biological groups. The characterisation of the network function was made using ordinary differential equation modelling, which was later confirmed by experimental observations.In a second time, we modelled the influence of the protein dimerisation sequences on the auxin interactome structure using mixture of linear models for random graphs. This model lead us to conclude that these groups behave differently, depending on their dimerisation sequence similarities, and that each dimerisation domains might play different roles.Finally, we changed scale to represent the observed early stages of A. thaliana flower development as a spatio-temporal property graph. Using recent improvements in imaging techniques, we could extract 3D+t cellular features, and demonstrated the possibility of identifying and characterising cellular identity on this basis. In that respect, hierarchical clustering methods and hidden Markov tree have proven successful in grouping cell depending on their feature similarities
Nguyen, Van Toi. "Visual interpretation of hand postures for human-machine interaction." Thesis, La Rochelle, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015LAROS035/document.
Full textNowadays, people want to interact with machines more naturally. One of the powerful communication channels is hand gesture. Vision-based approach has involved many researchers because this approach does not require any extra device. One of the key problems we need to resolve is hand posture recognition on RGB images because it can be used directly or integrated into a multi-cues hand gesture recognition. The main challenges of this problem are illumination differences, cluttered background, background changes, high intra-class variation, and high inter-class similarity. This thesis proposes a hand posture recognition system consists two phases that are hand detection and hand posture recognition. In hand detection step, we employed Viola-Jones detector with proposed concept Internal Haar-like feature. The proposed hand detection works in real-time within frames captured from real complex environments and avoids unexpected effects of background. The proposed detector outperforms original Viola-Jones detector using traditional Haar-like feature. In hand posture recognition step, we proposed a new hand representation based on a good generic descriptor that is kernel descriptor (KDES). When applying KDES into hand posture recognition, we proposed three improvements to make it more robust that are adaptive patch, normalization of gradient orientation in patches, and hand pyramid structure. The improvements make KDES invariant to scale change, patch-level feature invariant to rotation, and final hand representation suitable to hand structure. Based on these improvements, the proposed method obtains better results than original KDES and a state of the art method

This paper proposes a novel approach that uses Kinect upon the wheeled mobile robot to capture grey and depth image as the information for route following system of indoor environment. The system only needs Kinect and two sonar sensors to get the information around the mobile robot. In the first learning process, the robot was guided by user and took a photograph at the desired position along the route. The next process, we apply the speeded-up robust features (SURF) algorithm to the desired images in order to extract the features and its corresponding depth data. Then the final navigation process could match the former data with the features also extracted by SURF of the current image which also photographed from Kinect. According to the matching result, we apply ART-2 algorithm to keep the right matched features. Then we use the depth data, which belong to their right matched features, into the coordinate transformation to obtain the distance and the orientation error between the pose of navigation and learning process. Experiment is presented by three kinds of route to proof our approach in indoor environments.

After 21s century, life become blend of intelligent technology gradually, but humans just not use intelligent technology to get information in a network, they also want use intelligent technology to create more convenient and comfortable life. If the technology is closely related to the life, then the technology safe is particularly important. Biometrics recognition is very popular in recent years, that use humans face、iris、voice、fingerprint to recognize, and the biometrics recognition mainstream become vein recognition. The vein recognition using Near-Infrared to illuminate the back of a hand、wrist、palm or finger to get the vein images form camera, and then use vein images to take features to recognize. Vein recognition is vital identification so it’s very difficult to forge and fake. Our proposed is use few features in the finger to identification. First to do normalization aimed at finger vein image on camera, second we use improve POSHE and Sobel to enhance the vein in finger vein image, then final we use SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features) to extraction and matching of finger-vein patterns. The experiment has proved that our proposed have high estimate、convenience and low cost.

With the development of information technology, the way of information accessing for people has been very different from those before. Most people will use mobile devices with camera to obtain information through the Internet rather than just rely on personal and notebook computers. In this study, we focus on the design of mobile visual search system and hope to effectively enhance the performance of existed mobile visual search systems. Different to the traditional architecture of visual search systems, the proposed system computes the SURF features of the captured image of shooting with camera on the mobile devices and then send these features to the server site via networks. On the server site, a feature matching operation will be performed between the query image and the database images and then return the most similarity image back to the client site. This kind of approach uses the image feature transmission to replace the image transmission will reduce the data capacity on the network and enhance the system performance. In addition, in order to evaluate the performance of the Client-Server architecture, we have implemented two practical applications - wine labels and building image retrieval system. On the wine retrieval application, K-means algorithm is applied to cluster the wine label images into K classes and the corresponding K-D Tree data structures are constructed to carry out an efficient matching. On the other application of the building image retrieval, GPS information is applied to find the nearby buildings. Only these nearby buildings required to perform the matching operation so it will save much time for image feature matching. Experimental results reveal that the proposed wine label retrieval system can achieve 99.5% accuracy rate for 202 test images and 0.41 second matching time per image query. In addition, the proposed building retrieval system can achieve 100% accuracy in recognizing 10 buildings in our campus not only in the client-server architecture but for the real-time query. These results show the good performances of the proposed mobile visual searching systems.

Due to the rapid development of information technology and upgrade retrieval technology, Content-Based Image Retrieval has become a popular technique in image search application. The generally used features for image indexing include shape, texture and color. However, these low-level features would not work very well when they are applied in practical applications. In this study, we focus on the seashell image recognition topic. The existed seashell indexing websites can only provide some traditional search modes such as keyword indexing which lack of humanization. This will make the users feel bad in usage if they lack the professional background of seashell. We develop a two-pass recognition system using CCD shape feature and SURF features to recognize seashell images. In order to increase the efficiency of feature calculation in the system, user can input a front and back seashell image through a webcam then the system will output the corresponding information of the query seashell. The used image processing techniques include image noise removal and normalization. We extract the input shape features of seashell images using CCD with 72 distance values. These features are used to compare the pre-defined image features in database image to find a candidate seashell image. If the candidate is located in the uncertain cluster, then a second stage of SURF feature matching is performed to find a proper solution. Experimental results show that the proposed method has high accuracy and efficiency, the accuracy rate for the front seashell images using the proposed method is 96% and the average execution time is 0.59 seconds; the accuracy rate for the back seashell images is 100% and the average execution time is 0.66 seconds.

In this thesis, we consider the application of a visual based localization and mapping algorithm for a 4-Mecanum omni-directional mobile robot. Digital images are took by a camera in different time and pose. Using basic image processing technology and Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF) detector, the coordinates of some feature points in an image are extracted, and the feature points detected in successive different images, projected from the same scene points are then matched. Based on the matched feature points between two successive images and using the Structure-from-Motion (SfM) algorithm, the translation vector and rotation matrix between the poses of camera in different time are calculated. The depths of feature points can then be retrieved in absolute scale with some constraints by using the obtained translation vector and rotation matrix. Finally, the camera attached to mobile robot and object coordinates in the world coordinate frame are found via the translation vector, rotation matrix, and the depths of the feature points. Experimental results are then presented for illustrating the performance of the suggested visual-based localization method.

Audio fingerprinting which is like human fingerprint. It can identify the unique fingerprint of the audio. We can match audio by comparing the similarity of its fingerprint, this is called audio fingerprinting method. The system is widely used in audio matching applications. For example, we can compare the similarity between the query audio and music database, therefore we can get the details of the query audio to achieve audio identification. In this study, we propose an audio fingerprinting method based on computer vision. We use image processing technology to solve the problem of audio matching. We transform one-dimensional audio to two-dimensional spectrogram, and get a robust SURF features. We use SURF features to compare the similarity between different audio fingerprints. For distortions, like pitch shifting and time stretching, which are difficult to match for some existing systems. Our method has a promising success rate. In experimental results, we compare our results with other audio fingerprinting methods. Experimental results demonstrate that our system is highly robust to various audio distortions. In audio alignment, our method can achieve higher accuracy and the average error is less than one second.

This paper presents a method for depth measurement based on Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF) and pixel number variation of CCD Images. A single camera is used to capture two images in different photographing distances, where speeded up robust features in the images are extracted and matched. To remove mismatches from given putative point correspondences, an Identifying point correspondences by Correspondence Function (ICF) method is adopted in order to automatically select better reference points required by the pixel number variation method. Based on the displacement of the camera at two photographing distances, feature points of the objects in the images are used to determine the distance measurement of the target objects. After that, we use the obtained distance information of the feature points of the target objects to construct the depth map by using smooth interpolation.

In 2012, behind the home base in Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium, once again there will be the billboard of Taiwan’s Tourism Bureau. The Tourism Bureau has indicated that this year they have prepared a budget of 10 million NT dollar and signed a one year contract with the Dodger Stadium to utilize their billboards to promote Taiwan Tourism. As these advertising billboards are visible to a worldwide audience via television broadcast, regardless of the item being promoted, increased awareness will be achieved by taking advantage of high rating broadcasted locations. The main focus of this paper is of color and SURF. The representative features are identified through filtering by color and recognition of SURF characteristics as well as the distribution of space and information. This helps creating a new index structure with the main features specified, and allowing efficient multiple high-dimensional feature search whilst targeting the basis of visual imagery advertising through sports game broadcasting’s billboard recognition system. The processed features allow each advertising image to maintain its uniqueness and mutually exclusive characteristics. In collaboration of detecting the frame differences, calculating frequency can be markedly decreased. Identification is made by comparison of the similarity of the feature points using sign of the laplacian, distance of the characteristic vectors and the main direction of the synthetic vector. According to the test results, search is accelerated by using the identified main features as it also decreased the number of comparisons required, which in effect achieves more accurate results.

Calcaneus, also called as heel bone, is the largest tarsal bone that forms the rear part of the foot. Cuboid bone articulates with its anterior and superior sides together with talus bone. Calcaneus is known to be the most fracture prone tarsal bone. Calcaneal fractures represent only about 2% of all fractures but 60% of tarsal bones fractures[1]. Based on subtalar joint involvement, calcaneal fractures can be categorized into two types: intraarticular fracture and extraarticular fracture. Intraarticular fractures are more common where posterior talar articular facet involves calcaneus. Patient data can be stored in several kinds of imaging format, e.g. Computer Tomography (CT) data. The CT images is the evolution of the medical images that recently used for determine the disease from the patient. It is a sequence of 2-D images that construct 3-D images. CT images contain a significant amount of information, such as fracture information in each slice of 2-D images that may not be thoroughly and accurately analyzed via visual inspection. This study proposed a new method to classify and detect the fracture in calcaneus bone CT images. In this experiment, we do the experiment in two dataset. The first one in just one Dicom case and the second one in the all dataset (two Dicom case). Both morphological operation and edge detection methods were combined in order to achieve better input in classification and detection processes. In the pre-processing step, the images were resized into the same size (224 x 224) to fit in the CNN method. After that the input images were converted in the grayscale images. After that, the images were subtracted with the images mean. Convolutional Neural Network was also applied in the classification process in order to classify the bone into several classes. Two classes were classified (fracture and non-fracture) from three views that are coronal, transversal, and sagittal view. After classification, the detection were done from the fracture class and determine in which part of calcaneus bone was broken. The detection is from three views also that is transversal, sagittal, and coronal views.

Full textA video conference is an interactive meeting between two or more locations, facilitated by simultaneous two-way video and audio transmissions. People in a video conference, also known as participants, join these video conferences for business and recreational purposes. In a typical video conference, we should properly identify and authenticate every participant in the video conference, if information discussed during the video conference is confidential. This prevents unauthorized and unwanted people from being part of the conference and exposing any confidential information during the video conference. Present existing video conferencing systems however, have problems in this area, resulting in some risks. These risks relate precisely to the lack of facilities to properly identify and authenticate participants, making it possible for unwanted/unauthorised participants to join the conference or masquerade as another participant. It is especially a problem, when facilitators or organisers are the only participants that know the authorised participants, or participants allowed in a video conference. In this dissertation, we review the risks that are present in video conferencing, and create a security system, (called BioVid) that mitigates the identification and authentication risks in video conferences. BioVid uses a Speeded-Up Robust Features or SURF-based face recognition approach, to identify and authenticate any participant in a video conference. BioVid continuously monitors the participants to check if masquerading has occurred and when it does detect an unauthorised participant, it informs the Service Provider. The Service Provider can then deal with the problem by either kicking the participant or asking the other participants to vote the unauthorised participant out of the video conference.

High dynamic range, HDR, means the range of the maximum and the minimum radiance value in scene. The sensitivity of human eyes is usually 100,000,000:1, but camera limited by hardware storage memory is usually 1000:1. In order to make images in scene close to observation with human eyes, HDR will store the information of images which are based on their exposure time. Finally, with tone mapping, the value of pixel of image will be rebuilt. However, process to synchronize the multiple images generates the human and natural factors caused by different filming time. Therefore, before multiple images are synchronized, they will align first. In this paper, we discuss alignment about different dynamic range images. With Speeded Up Robust Features, SURF, we extract the feature points from images and match these points. Next, we build affine transform to align these images with feature points. Finally, the result of high dynamic range will be synchronized.
