چکیده

We present an automated system for detecting visual changes on tunnel linings. By registering new images to a three-dimensional tunnel surface model, recovered using Structure and Motion techniques, we are able to detect and localise changes accurately in order to assist visual inspection by a human expert. We formulate the problem of detecting changes probabilistically and exploit different feature maps and a novel geometric prior to achieve invariance to noise and nuisance sources such as parallax and lighting changes. System performance is assessed on a real data set labelled with ground-truth and collected with a prototype capture device. By localising, organising and classifying image data automatically, our system is a step towards higher frequency visual inspection at a reduced cost.

Speed Detection in Wind-Tunnels by processing Schlieren Images (RESEARCH NOTE)

Schlieren imaging in wind-tunnels is extensively utilized to study the effects of air on an airplane surface. One of the interesting subjects for research is to study the effects of speed change on the airplane surface. Speed change results in occurrence of shock waves, which are visualized as lines on Schlieren images. In this paper, we study the problem of detecting speed of a plane after occ...

Introduction Land use reflects the interactive characteristics of humans and the environment and describes how human exploitation works for one or more targets on the ground. Land use is usually defined on the basis of human use of the land, with an emphasis on the functional role of land in economic activities. Land use, which is associated with human activity, is undergoing change over time....
