Monitored 3-Dimensional (3D) video experience can be utilized as “feedback information” to fine tune the service parameters for providing a better service to the demanding 3D service customers. The 3D video experience which includes both video quality and depth perception is influenced by several contextual and content related factors (e.g., ambient illumination condition, content characteristi...

In this paper, an efficient depth-aware image enhancement system is presented. The depth information and well-known depth-cue relative perception are used to enhance 2D still images or videos. Image enhancement has been developed for decades in a lot of fields. However, conventional approaches deal with images in the 2D(x-y) projective plane. The information of z-axis is not used. In this work,...

The recent increase of interest in the graph invariant called tree-depth and in its applications in algorithms and logic on graphs led to a natural question: is there an analogously useful “depth” notion also for dense graphs (say; one which is stable under graph complementation)? To this end we introduced, in a 2012 conference paper, the notion of shrub-depth of a graph class which is related ...

A single two dimensional (2D) image does not contain depth information. An infinite number of points in the three dimensional (3D) space are projected to the same point in the image plane. But a single 2D image has some monocular depth cues, by which we can make a hypothesis of depth variation in the image to generate a depth map. This paper proposes an interactive method of depth map generatio...

background: patient participation means involvement of the patient in decision making or expressing opinions about different treatment methods, which includes sharing information, feelings and signs and accepting health team instructions. objectives: given the importance of patient participation in healthcare decision making which empowers patients and improves services and health outcomes, thi...

Various visual cues provide information about depth and shape in a scene. When several of these cues are simultaneously available in a single location in the scene, the visual system attempts to combine them. In this paper, we discuss three key issues relevant to the experimental analysis of depth cue combination in human vision: cue promotion, dynamic weighting of cues, and robustness of cue c...
