Iterative Gradient-Based Shift Estimation: To Multiscale or Not to Multiscale?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fast global shift estimation is a critical preprocessing step on many high level tasks such as remote sensing or medical imaging. In this work we deal with a simple question: should we use an iterative technique to perform shift estimation or should we use a multiscale approach. Based on the obtained results, both methodologies proved to lose accuracy as the noise increases, however this accuracy loss increases with the shift magnitude. The conclusion is that a multiscale strategy should be used when the shift magnitude is higher than approximately a fifth of a pixel.

Bias-minimizing Filters for Motion Estimation
Among the myriad of techniques used in estimating motion vector fields, perhaps the most popular and accurate methods are the so called gradient-based methods. A critical step in the gradient-based estimation process is the estimation of image gradients using derivative filters. It is well known that the gradientbased estimators contain significant deterministic bias relating the gradient calcu...
متن کاملA FEM Multiscale Homogenization Procedure using Nanoindentation for High Performance Concrete
This paper aims to develop a numerical multiscale homogenization method for prediction of elasto-viscoplastic properties of a high performance concrete (HPC). The homogenization procedure is separated into two-levels according to the microstructure of the HPC: the mortar or matrix level and the concrete level. The elasto-viscoplastic behavior of individual microstructural phases of the matrix a...

A finite element model based on the layerwise theory is developed for the analysis of transverse cracking in cross-ply laminated beams. The numerical model is developed using the layerwise theory of Reddy, and the von Kármán type nonlinear strain field is adopted to accommodate the moderately large rotations of the beam. The finite element beam model is verified by comparing the present numeric...

In this article, the influence of various vacancy defects on the Young’s modulus of carbon nanotube (CNT) - reinforcement polymer composite in the axial direction is investigated via a structural model in ANSYS software. Their high strength can be affected by the presence of defects in the nanotubes used as reinforcements in practical nanocomposites. Molecular structural mechanics (MSM)/finite ...
متن کاملApplication of M3GM in a Petroleum Reservoir Simulation
Reservoir formations exhibit a wide range of heterogeneity from micro to macro scales. A simulation that involves all of these data is highly time consuming or almost impossible; hence, a new method is needed to meet the computational cost. Moreover, the deformations of the reservoir are important not only to protect the uppermost equipment but also to simulate fluid pattern and petroleum produ...
