Computer Vision and Color Measurement Techniques for Inline Monitoring of Cheese Curd Syneresis

Inline bandwidth measurement techniques for gigabit networks

We introduce an inline measurement method that can overcome difficulties in measurement task in high-speed network environment, such as short packet transmission intervals and Interrupt Coalescence function deployed in the high-speed Network Interface Cards. The method adjusts the number of packets involved in a packet burst of an active TCP connection, and utilises the inter-intervals of the b...

Computer Vision Techniques for Background Modelling in Urban Traffic Monitoring

Traffic data collection is an essential issue for road-traffic control departments, which need real-time information for traffic-parameter estimation: road-traffic intensity, lane occupancy, congestion level, estimation of journey times, etc., as well as for early incident detection. This information can be used to improve road safety as well as to make an optimal use of the existing infrastruc...

Robust Techniques for Computer Vision

Applying Computer Vision Techniques to Traffic Monitoring Tasks

Abs t rac t . This paper presents a method I for tracking and segmenting vehicles in a traffic scene. The approach is based on a frame to frame segmentation followed by a tracking process. As opposed to usual segmentation methods, our method feedbacks segmentation with tracking information for improving results. Several facilities are provided for traffic monitoring such as vehicles trajectorie...

Cheese Curd Permittivity and Moisture Measurement Using a 6-port Reflectometer

During cheese manufacture the moisture content of the curd must be carefully controlled. Curd moisture is usually measured by weighing and drying, which is a time consuming process. This paper describes progress in the development of microwave moisture sensing equipment suitable for the cheese industry. Results from a permittivity survey are described. A six-port network is evaluated for use as...
