An Automatic Wheel Contour Extraction Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
Wheel contour extraction from image is an important unit of any vision-based traffic accident analysis system, and automatically doing it is still a difficult task due to various distracting factors such as low contrast between the wheel and the ground, different wheel types and various weather conditions etc. In this work, a new automatic wheel extraction method is proposed, in which rather than directly extracting wheel contours from images, the wheel rim and the contacting image point of wheel to the ground are at first extracted, then the wheel contour is in turn located via the invariance of cross ratio. Extensive experiments under various weather conditions show that our proposed method is capable of detecting wheel contours fully automatically and robustly. Copyright © 2014 IFSA Publishing, S. L.

Automatic implementation of a new recovery coefficient for Reliable contour milling
In contour milling, to render the machining process more automated with significant productivity without remaining material after machining, a new recovery coefficient was developed. The coefficient was inserted in the computation of contour parallel tool paths to fix the radial depth of cut in the way to ensure an optimized overlap area between the passes in the corners, without residuals. Thu...

متن کاملTrain Wheel Abrasion, Measurement Method Using Contour Information
We present a method to recognize a complicated curved object from an image contour. We are developing a system that automatically measures train wheel abrasion from its contour image. Because a train wheel consists of a curved surface, the transformation of the image contour due to position variation affects the measurement accuracy. The 3D shape model of the train wheel is analyzed to compute ...
