Abstract:

La fotografia digitale ha avuto uno sviluppo sempre crescente negli ultimi dieci anni. Prima la diminuzione dei prezzi delle apparecchiature di acquisizione e poi l’integrazione di queste nei dispositivi portatili di uso quotidiano (i.e. smartphone, tablet) ha permesso a chiunque di potere creare e conservare semplicemente un enorme numero di immagini. Inoltre l’immagine stessa é diventata uno strumento di comunicazione, portando alla nascita di social networks basati unicamente sulla condivisione di fotografie (flickr, instagram, etc...). La gestione di tali quantitá di dati é quindi diventa

Abstract:

Collection understanding shifts the traditional focus of retrieval in large collections from locating specific artifacts to gaining a comprehensive view of the collection. Visualization tools are critical to the process of efficient collection understanding. By presenting simple visual interfaces and intuitive methods of interacting with a collection, users come to understand the essence of the collection by focusing on the artifacts. This thesis discusses a practical approach for enhancing collection understanding in image collections.

Les données dites multimédia (images, vidéos) se distinguent des données classique par une densité variable d'information et l'impossibilité de normaliser ces données.

Il y a principalement deux problèmes a résoudre pour la recherche d'information dans les collections multimédia (ou les bases de données multimédia) : (1) la représentation des données et (2) le processus de recherche du point de vue de l'utilisateur.

Al giorno d’oggi ormai quasi chiunque possiede uno smartphone dotato di una telecamera ad alta risoluzione. Negli ultimi decenni, i contenuti multimediali (immagini e video) stanno sempre più spesso diventando il principale mezzo di comunicazione. Dato il continuo calo dei prezzi dei dispositivi di archiviazione, il numero totale di immagini salvate sta aumentando notevolmente, andando così a creare collezioni di immagini sempre più grandi, a tal punto da essere una problema per chi vuole le vuole esplorare.

Sample collection is a common task for mobile robots and there are a variety of manipulators available to perform this operation. This thesis presents a novel scoop sample collection system design which is able to both collect and contain a sample using the same hardware. To ease the operator burden during sampling the scoop system is paired with new semi-autonomous and fully autonomous collection techniques. These are derived from data provided by colored 3D point clouds produced via image-based 3D reconstructions. A custom robotic mobility platform, the Scoopbot, is introduced to perform com

Abstract:

Photo editing software allows digital images to be blurred, warped or re-colored at the touch of a button. However, it is not currently possible to change the material appearance of an object except by painstakingly painting over the appropriate pixels. Here we present a set of methods for automatically replacing one material with another, completely different material, starting with only a single high dynamic range image, and an alpha matte specifying the object. Our approach exploits the fact that human vision is surprisingly tolerant of certain (sometimes enormous) physical inaccuracies. Th

Abstract:

This dissertation deals with the image-based approach to synthesize a virtual scene using sparse images or a video sequence without the use of 3D models. In our scenario, a real dynamic or static scene is captured by a set of un-calibrated images from different viewpoints. After automatically recovering the geometric transformations between these images, a series of photo-realistic virtual views can be rendered and a virtual environment covered by these several static cameras can be synthesized. This image-based approach has applications in object recognition, object transfer, video synthesis

These typographic and image based designs explore multiple components of design including: legibility, manipulation, communication, and conventionalism with an emphasis on information graphics.

Moreover, the fixations occur in clusters, which are simulated using superpixels, where superpixels are clusters of pixels bound by the Gestalt principle for perceptual grouping.

Abstract:

An image mosaic is an artistic work that uses a number of smaller images creatively combined together to form another larger image. Each building block image, or tessera, has its own distinctive and meaningful content, but when viewed from a distance the tesserae come together to form an aesthetically pleasing montage. This work presents the design and implementation of MosaiX, a computer software system that generates these image mosaics automatically. To control the image mosaic creation process, several parameters are used within the system. Each parameter affects the overall mosaic quality

The underlying hypothesis is that image quality can be determined by a comparative process in which a sequence of images is compared to each other to determine the point of diminishing returns.

Abstract:

A large number of image registration techniques have been developed for various types of sensors and applications, with the aim to improve the accuracy, computational complexity, generality, and robustness. They can be broadly classified into two categories: intensity-based and feature-based methods. The primary drawback of the intensity-based approaches is that it may fail unless the two images are misaligned by a moderate difference in scale, rotation, and translation. In addition, intensity-based methods lack the robustness in the presence of non-spatial distortions due to different imaging

One of the main goals of computer graphics is the fast synthesis of photorealistic image of virtual 3D scenes. The work presented in this thesis addresses this goal of speed and realism.

We show that using an image-space approach can provide effective solutions to these problems. Unlike geometric space algorithms that operate on 3D primitives such as points, edges, and polygons, image-space algorithms operate on 2D snapshot images of the 3D geometric dat

Invading cells may perform proteolytic degradation of the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) and directed migration in order to disseminate through the tissue. Both of the mentioned processes are profoundly affected by several parameters originating fr

Abstract:

In content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems, there are two general types of search: target search and category search. Unlike queries in traditional database systems, users in most cases cannot specify an ideal query to retrieve the desired results for either target search or category search in multimedia database systems, and have to rely on iterative feedback to refine their query. Efficient evaluation of such iterative queries can be a challenge, especially when the multimedia database contains a large number of entries, and the search needs many iterations, and when the underlying dist

Abstract:

Content-Based Image Retrieval has been an active research area for decades. In a CBIR system, one or more images are used as query to search for similar images. The similarity is measured on the low level features, such as color, shape, edge, texture. First, each image is processed and visual features are extracted. Therefore each image becomes a point in the feature space. Then, if two images are close to each other in the feature space, they are considered similar. That is, the k nearest neighbors are considered the most similar images to the query image. In this K-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) mo

Abstract:

The research investigated the artistic and photographic processes corresponding with two studies motivated by the artist's personal history and focused on the role, affect, and history of various female idols represented in art, religion, and modern American popular media. The first part of the study documented female models as they were simultaneously asked by the artist to think of a range of personal but nonspecific moments from her life, the women were asked not to share their thoughts, only the moment spent thinking, with the artist. The second part of the study documented aspiring models

Abstract:

This dissertation focuses on the scattering phenomena by well-polished optical mirror surfaces. Specifically, predicting image degradation by surface scatter from rough mirror surfaces for a two-mirror telescope operating at extremely short wavelengths (9nm~30nm) is performed. To evaluate image quality, surface scatter is predicted from the surface metrology data and the point spread function in the presence of both surface scatter and aberrations is calculated. For predicting the scattering intensity distribution, both numerical and analytic methods are considered. Among the numerous analyti
