Fusing disparity maps from different algorithms to exploit their complementary advantages is still challenging. Uncertainty estimation and complex disparity relationships between neighboring pixels limit the accuracy and robustness of the existing methods and there is no common method for depth fusion of different kind of data. In this paper, we introduce a method to incorporate supplementary i...

an experiment was carried out to develop and evaluate a semi-purified diet suitable for fiber related studies without negative impacts on performance, serum biochemistry and intestinal morphology of growing japanese quails. total of 144 japanese quail chicks were used in a factorial arrangement using completely randomized design with 6 treatments, 4 replicates of 6 quails in each replicate. the...

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...

the gravity method is one of the first geophysical techniques used in oil and gas exploration. an algorithm is developed for a fast quantitative interpretation of gravity data generated by geometrically simple but also the estimated depths and other model parameters of a buried structure. following abdelrahman et al (1989). the general gravity anomaly expression produced by a sphere, an infinit...

the qom formation in naragh area, with 185 meter thickness, is exposed about 25 km northeast of delijan. this formation in the studied area, lithologically, consists of shale, gravely limestone, and sandy limestone, with thin, medium to thick bedded and massive limestons. it disconformably covers the lower red formation and is covered by recent alluvium. in this research, the role of large fora...

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,...

• We identify a novel strategy to parallelize composite and filter across individual depth fragments, and describe an implementation on a modern GPU. We demonstrate that this technique is applicable to several areas with four examples: a particle system, a volume renderer, a polygon rasterizer and an interactive Reyes pipeline. • We compare the performance of the proposed fragment-parallel stra...
