Automatic Foreground Initialization For Binary Image Segmentation, Wei Li
Automatic Foreground Initialization For Binary Image Segmentation, Wei Li
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Foreground segmentation is a fundamental problem in computer vision. A popular approach for foreground extraction is through graph cuts in energy minimization framework. Most existing graph cuts based image segmentation algorithms rely on user’s initialization. In this work, we aim to find an automatic initialization for graph cuts. Unlike many previous methods, no additional training dataset is needed. Collecting a training set is not only expensive and time consuming, but it also may bias the algorithm to the particular data distribution of the collected dataset. We assume that the foreground differs significantly from the background in some unknown feature space …

Interactive Augmented Reality As A Support Tool For Parkinson’S Disease Rehabilitation Programs, Andrés Ayala García
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
In this thesis, an augmented reality system is proposed as an alternative to create multiple interactive virtual environments that might later be used in Parkinson’s Disease rehabilitation programs. The main objective of this thesis is to develop a Wearable Tangible Augmented Reality Environment focused on providing the sense of presence required to effectively immerse patients so that they are able to perform different tasks in context–specific scenarios. By using our system, patients are able to freely navigate different virtual environments. Moreover, by segmenting and then overlaying users’ hands and objects of interest above the 3D environment, patients have the ability …
3d Velocity Retrieval And Storm Tracking Using Multiple Radars, Yong Zhang
3d Velocity Retrieval And Storm Tracking Using Multiple Radars, Yong Zhang
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Severe weather forecasting is one of the most important and urgent tasks in the meteorology field. This thesis builds on previous work by Barron and Mercer and their graduate students, concerning the use of 3D optical flow to retrieve 3D wind velocity from 3D Doppler radial velocity datasets and tracking 3D severe weather storms using fuzzy points realized as ellipsoids to represent storms and a fuzzy algebra machinery in a relaxation labeling framework to track storms in Doppler precipitation datasets.
We first extend the original 3D optical flow (both least squares and regularization methods) for recovering 3D wind velocity from …
