Placing Visual Sensors Using Heuristic Algorithms for Bridge Surveillance

چکیده
This study addresses the camera placement problem for bridge surveillance and proposes solutions that minimize the cost while satisfying the minimum coverage level. We discuss the field of view of cameras in the three-dimensional space. We also consider occlusions, the characteristics of surveillance targets, and different pan-tilt-zoom cameras in the visibility test. To solve the camera placement problem while minimizing the total cost, we propose a genetic algorithm (GA) and a uniqueness score with a local search algorithm (ULA). Problem sets for a large-scale dimension scenario are generated based on the data of actual bridges in the Republic of Korea. For three simulation sets and a case study of Samoonjin Bridge, the proposed ULA yields better results than GA.

Identification of Structural Defects Using Computer Algorithms
One of the numerous methods recently employed to study the health of structures is the identification of anomaly in data obtained for the condition of the structure, e.g. the frequencies for the structural modes, stress, strain, displacement, speed, and acceleration) which are obtained and stored by various sensors. The methods of identification applied for anomalies attempt to discover and re...

A camera sensor network is a sensor network of a group of camera sensors and is being deployed for various surveillance and monitoring applications. In this paper, we propose a new surveillance model for camera sensor network, namely half-view model, which requires a camera sensor network to capture the face image of any object if it moves forward to pass over an area of interest. Based on this...

In recent decades, video surveillance systems have an increasing development that are used to prevent crime and manage facilities with rapid diffusion of (CCTV)cameras to prevent crime and manage facilities. The video stored in the video surveillance system should be managed comfortably, but sometimes the movies are leaking out to unauthorized people or by unauthorized people, thus violating i...
متن کاملMultiple Target Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks Based on Sensor Grouping and Hybrid Iterative-Heuristic Optimization
A novel hybrid method for tracking multiple indistinguishable maneuvering targets using a wireless sensor network is introduced in this paper. The problem of tracking the location of targets is formulated as a Maximum Likelihood Estimation. We propose a hybrid optimization method, which consists of an iterative and a heuristic search method, for finding the location of targets simultaneously. T...
متن کاملA Novel Adapted Multi-objective Meta-heuristic Algorithm for a Flexible Bi-objective Scheduling Problem Based on Physics Theory
We relax some assumptions of the traditional scheduling problem and suggest an adapted meta-heuristic algorithm to optimize efficient utilization of resources and quick response to demands simultaneously. We intend to bridge the existing gap between theory and real industrial scheduling assumptions (e.g., hot metal rolling industry, chemical and pharmaceutical industries). We adapt and evalua...
