The paper addresses the problem of camera tracking, which denotes the continuous image-based computation of a camera’s position and orientation with respect to a reference frame. The method aims at regular cameras, which means that 3D-3D registration methods applicable to RGB-D cameras are not an option. The tracked frame contains only 2D information, thus requiring a solution to the absolute p...

introduction: delivering maximum dose to tumor and minimum dose to normal tissues is the most important goal in radiotherapy. according to icru, the maximum acceptable uncertainty in the delivered dose compared to the prescribed dose should be lower than 5%, and this is because of the relationship between absorbed dose, tumor control and normal tissue damage. absorbed dose accuracy is investiga...

the objective of this research was to investigate the effects of deficit irrigation on physiological and agronomic terms of eggplant to maximize the water use efficiency (wue) without affecting the final yield and fruit quality parameters under arid environment. therefore, two field experiments were conducted at two different sites: ghor al-safi, jordan valley and sail al-karak, karak valley, ka...

studies of rainfall variation generally focus on large areas. for example, in india, the area average monsoon rainfall series of the whole country or meteorological subdivisions are used. this would be of no use for local agriculture, particularly in places where rainfall is very high or very low, especially for crops like small cardamom and vanilla which are very sensitive to soil moisture and...

Object removal by image inpainting aims at the visual uniformity of the inpainted blanks among their surroundings. Most inpainting algorithms pursue the structure continuity and texture similarity only in color. In this paper we take the view depth continuity into account and propose a depth-guided inpainting algorithm, in which a single color image and its associated disparity map are inpainte...
