Applications of Contour Tracking Techniques
نویسنده
چکیده
This report describes the results of the application of contour tracking techniques based on Active Contours and image motion estimation on diierent kinds of biomedical images, and the developmente of new user-friendly interfaces for the interactive analysis of the images. A dedicated system similar to the one described in 1, 2] has been developed for the analysis of ultrasound images representing a carotid artery. Another contour-detection and tracking application has been dedicated to the segmentation of MR velocity maps representing the blood ow in the heart. A simple tool for the initialization of the program an the display of the results has been developed without the use of the Xview libraries as in the original case and can therefore be compiled and used on every X window machine. The remote control through a Java Applet communicating with a C program running on the server using the routines developed by David Greco and Marco Perscosolido at CRS4 is going to be experimented.

PID position domain control for contour tracking
Contour error reduction for modern machining processes is an important concern in multi-axis contour tracking applications in order to ensure the quality of final products. Many control methods were developed in time domain to deal with contour tracking problems, and a proportional–derivative (PD) position domain control (PDC) was also proposed by the authors. It is well known that proportional...
متن کاملActive Contour Tracking of Moving Objects Using Edge Flows and Ant Colony Optimization in Video Sequences
Object segmentation and tracking are important techniques in video applications. In this paper, we present a novel system for active contour tracking of moving objects in video sequences. Our method includes preprocessing to identify an initial object contour, and object contour segmentation to refine the contour of the moving object. The edge flows and ant colony optimization are incorporated ...
متن کاملLip Contour Detection Techniques Based on Front View of Face
Lip contour detection and tracking is the most important pre-requisite for computerized speech reading. Several approaches have been proposed for lip tracking after lip contour is accurately initialized on first frame. Detection and tracking of the lip contour is an issue in speech reading. A relatively large class of lip reading algorithms are available based on lip contour analysis. In these ...
متن کاملfor Nanotechnology Research and Surveillance System Design by Steven Cheng ( Under the direction of Suchendra
The field of computer vision comprises various disciplines including topics such as background modeling, object tracking, and object detection. The research contained in this manuscript investigates two important aspects of computer vision, namely contour tracking and static object detection. These areas are elements of the more generic process of object analysis. The material discussed within,...
متن کاملPlasticity Effect on Residual Stresses Measurement Using Contour Method
Residual stresses have become an important player in the field of the structural integrity for many years. Having an exact knowledge of residual stress distributions can be essential in designing the engineering components as unexpected failures are inevitable where such stresses are ignored. There are many residual stresses measurement techniques including destructive and non-destructive ones...
