We present an interactive reconstruction system based on space carving. The user controls the camera and object positions and their impact on the reconstruction is immediately displayed. The flow of images is used first for silhouette carving, and then representative images are stored in a hemispherical structure for balanced color carving. Projected color points on the measured background or o...

Welding is a very complex process in which the final weld quality can be affected by many process parameters. In order to inspect the weld quality and detect the presence of various weld defects, different methods and systems are studied and developed. In this paper, a laser-based vision system is developed for non-destructive weld quality inspection. The vision sensor is designed based on the ...

For the first time, three-dimensional images of the newborn infant brain have been generated using measurements of transmitted light. A 32-channel time-resolved imaging system was employed, and data were acquired using custom-made helmets which couple source fibres and detector bundles to the infant head. Images have been reconstructed using measurements of mean flight time relative to those ac...

Crowding is a fundamental bottleneck in object recognition. In crowding, an object in the periphery becomes unrecognizable when surrounded by clutter or distractor objects. Crowding depends on the positions of target and distractors, both their eccentricity and their relative spacing. In all previous studies, position has been expressed in terms of retinal position. However, in a number of situ...

Chess was one of the first problems studied by the AI community. While currently, chessplaying programs perform very well using primarily search-based algorithms to decide the best move to make, in this project I apply machine-learning algorithms to this problem. Specifically, instead of choosing which move is the best to make, I want to produce an function that attempts to determine the probab...
