Journal of System Simulation

Aiming at the requirement of autonomously tracking land moving targets of rotary-wing UAVs, an autonomous and stable UAV tracking and control system that can adapt to the common interference environments such as scale changes, occlusions, and attitude changes is constructed.The system extracts the imaging position of the target in airborne camera through the twin network based on deep learning, and obtains the relative pose of the target. The image processing algorithm is designed to process the icons in the tracking frame, and the yaw angle of UAV relative to the tracking target is obtained, Kalman filter is introduced to …

Data-Driven Deep Learning-Based Analysis On Thz Imaging, Haoyan Liu

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Breast cancer affects about 12.5% of women population in the United States. Surgical operations are often needed post diagnosis. Breast conserving surgery can help remove malignant tumors while maximizing the remaining healthy tissues. Due to lacking effective real-time tumor analysis tools and a unified operation standard, re-excision rate could be higher than 30% among breast conserving surgery patients. This results in significant physical, physiological, and financial burdens to those patients. This work designs deep learning-based segmentation algorithms that detect tissue type in excised tissues using pulsed THz technology. This work evaluates the algorithms for tissue type classification task among freshly …

Research On Visual Inspection Algorithm Of Crimping Appearance Defects For Wiring Harness Terminals, Bingan Yuan, Mingen Zhong, Jingxin Ni

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Aiming at the low efficiency and high missing rate of wiring harness terminals, an image detection method based on machine vision is proposed. The characteristic parameters of five typical defects in three main parts of wiring harness terminals are analyzed and defined. Tthe algorithms of extracting positioning datum, segmenting inspected-parts adaptively, extracting the defect features and calculating the characteristic parameters are designed respectively, and the defects criterions are given. The experimental results show that the algorithms are suitable for single defect and multi-class defects, both the miss detection rate and the false positiveness rate are low. The accuracy and …

Measurement Error Correction Model Of Tof Depth Camera, Le Wang, Luo Yu, Haikuan Wang, Minru Fei

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: 3D data intuitively reflects the full view of the target or scene. Time of Flight (ToF) camera is a range imaging sensor that can provide 3D geometric information of targets immediately, thus it is widely applied in the robot positioning and navigation, 3D reconstruction and other aspects etc. Due to the operational principle of the camera itself, there are variety measurement errors of the source data obtained by ToF, resulting in image distortion. The measurement errors in the imaging process of ToF camera were analyzed and summarized, and the cubic spline interpolation method combined with look-up table was proposed …

Vehicle Logo Recognition Based On Sparse Sampling And Gradient Distribution Features, Binbin Zhou, Shangbing Gao, Zhigeng Pan, Liangliang Wang, Hongyang Wang

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: The vehicle logo location and recognition are separated in the traditional method, the location errors will affect the subsequent recognition, at the same time the vehicle logo images are with low resolution and poor quality. Thus, a novel method was proposed which integrated the vehicle logo location and recognition organically. The sample images were sampled by sparse sampling, and then the point set was divided into adjacent point set and non adjacent point set, and the gradient feature and light and dark feature were extracted respectively, constructing the feature library. The logo coarse location area was multi-scale scanned. The …

Automated Image Interpretation For Science Autonomy In Robotic Planetary Exploration, Raymond Francis

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Advances in the capabilities of robotic planetary exploration missions have increased the wealth of scientific data they produce, presenting challenges for mission science and operations imposed by the limits of interplanetary radio communications. These data budget pressures can be relieved by increased robotic autonomy, both for onboard operations tasks and for decision- making in response to science data.

This thesis presents new techniques in automated image interpretation for natural scenes of relevance to planetary science and exploration, and elaborates autonomy scenarios under which they could be used to extend the reach and performance of exploration missions on planetary surfaces.
