Four koala heads were used with the aim of studying the anatomy and radiology of the skulls. This study may establish baseline data necessary to help in understanding, interpreting x-ray images and treating some of the respiratory diseases or surgical affections of the head. In addition, it may pave the way for future functional and comparative anatomical and radiological studies. The peculiari...

Photo or video mosaicing have drawn a lot of interests in the research field in the past years. Most of the existing work, however, focuses on how to match the images or video frames. This paper presents techniques to handle some practical issues when generating panorama photos. We have found from the experiments that a simple translational motion model gives more robust results than affine mod...

there have been different indices identified for desertification. among these is technogenic desertification index which seems much more efficient. in this study, some of technogenic desertification indices were studied and evaluated. first land use maps of the region were taken from irs-pan satellite image and aerial photos analysis. after evaluating the area of different uses, lands that had ...

Ship identification in satellite images poses significant challenges within the domain of remote sensing. Its importance extends to critical areas such as security, encompassing concerns military attacks, accidents, illegal transportation goods, fishing, territorial violations, and ship hijackings. Additionally, effective traffic management smuggling prevention heavily rely on accurate identifi...

People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show atypical attention to social stimuli [1] and gaze at faces [2] and complex images [3] in unusual ways. But all studies to date are limited by the experimenter's selected stimuli, which are generally photographs taken by people without autism. What might participants with ASD show us if they were the ones taking the photos? We gave participants a d...

Viewers find it difficult to match photos of unfamiliar faces for identity. Despite this, the use of photographic ID is widespread. In this study we ask whether it is possible to improve face matching performance by replacing single photographs on ID documents with multiple photos or an average image of the bearer. In 3 experiments we compare photo-to-photo matching with photo-to-average matchi...

This paper presents novel methods to handle potential occlusion problems and to render realistically the lighting of embedded virtual 3D objects in photo-based 3D worlds. These 3D worlds are called 3D Photo Collections. The first focus of this work handles potential occlusion problems between image parts of photos and the embedded virtual objects by dividing photos into 3D segments, which we ca...

Due to the recent wide spread of camera devices with GPS, the number of geotagged photos on the Web is increasing rapidly. Some image retrieval systems and travel recommendation systems which make use of geotagged images on the Web have been proposed so far. While most of them handle a large number of geotagged images as a set of location points, in this paper we handle them as sequences of loc...
