Model based tracking (MBT) of painted cars in the automotive mass production on conveyor belts with robots is a challenging task. Manydisturbing sources that have an impact on the MBTexist, like the influence of the localized work&#x...

We present an easy-to-use and lightweight surface and volume mesh sampling standalone application tailored for the needs ofparticle-based simulation. We describe the surface and volume sampling algorithms used in LEAVENin a beginner-friendlyfashion. Furthermore, we describe a novel method of gen...

This paper is concerned with making 3D scans of semitransparent ambers with and without inclusions. The paper presents results of using a variety of devices applied for this purpose. Equipment used in the experiments includes a 3D laser scanner, a structured light scanner, a s...

In this paper, the novel correspondence search method called point-to-block matching was proposed. Recently, in many proposed multimedia systems, depth estimation is performed on compressed input views. To address this problem and increase the quality of such depth maps, in the proposa...

We propose an extension of a recent work using convo-lutional neural networks and drones, such as Learning tofly by using DroNet [8] that can possibly safely drive adrone autonomously. The combination of (i) the DroNetarchitecture and weights to apply to CNNs to avoid thecrashes;&#...

Many parking lot facilities suffer from capacity over-loads and many times there are no monitoring tools toprovide feedback. As a consequence, the people, want-ing to park, become frustrated as there is considerablyloss of time. In this paper, we present a novel proto-type o...

Recently, customized manufacturing is gaining much momentum. Consumers do not want mass-produced products but are looking for unique and exclusive ones. It is especially evident in the furniture industry. As it is necessary to set an individual price for each individually manufactured p...

The graphics rendering pipeline is key to generating realistic images, and is a vital process of computational design,modeling, games, and animation. Perhaps the largest limiting factor of rendering is time; the processing requiredfor each pixel inevitably slows down rendering and produces&...

This paper reports on a graph-based approach to enable real-time update of 3D shared elements over the networkbetween multiple artists working simultaneously on the same 3D scene. It presents an experimental framework forexploring real-time collaboration in Digital Content Creation such as a...

In this study, we showcase a mobileaugmented reality application where a user places various 3D models in atabletop scene. The scene is captured and then rendered as Claude Monet’s impressionistic art style. One possibleuse case for this application is to demonstrate the behavior o...

Skin cancer is one of the most dangerous types of cancers that affect millions of people every year. The detection ofskin cancer in the early stages is an expensive and challenging process. In recent studies, machine learning-basedmethods help dermatologists in classifying medical image...

The goal of this research is to provide linguists with visualisations for analysing the results of their hate speechannotation. These visualisations consist of a set of interactive graphs for analysing the global distribution ofannotated messages, finding relationships between features, and ...

360◦photogrammetry captures the surrounding light from a central point. To process and transmit these types ofimages over the network to the end user, the most common approach is to project them onto a 2D image usingthe equirectangular projection to generate a 360◦image. However,&...

A two-step concept for 3D segmentation on 5 abdominal organs inside volumetric CT images is presented. Firsteach relevant organ’s volume of interest is extracted as bounding box. The extracted volume acts as input for asecond stage, wherein two compared U-Nets with different ...

In augmented reality applications, consistent illumination between virtual and real objects is important for creatingan immersive user experience. Consistent illumination can be achieved by appropriate parameterisation of thevirtual illumination model, that is consistent with real-world lighting conditio...

Based on depth perception of individual stereo cameras, spatial structures can be derived as point clouds. Thequality of such three-dimensional data is technically restricted by sensor limitations, latency of recording, andinsufficient object reconstructions caused by surfa...

For the purpose of analyzing a building according to its accessibility or structural resilience, printed 2D floorplans are not sufficient because of the missing link to semantic information. This paper tackles this issue and...

In this paper we propose a novel approach for reduction of JPEG artifacts using advanced techniques of stochasticcalculus. In order to solve this problem we use backward stochastic differential equations (in short BSDEs) andthe non local means method. In our algorithm we con...
