In 2009, the National Academy of Sciences published a report questioning the scientific validity of many forensic methods including firearm examination. Firearm examination is a forensic tool used to help the court determine whether two…
We consider the following problem : we have a high-resolution street network of a given city, and low-resolution measurements of traffic within this city. We want to associate to each measurement the set of streets corresponding to the…
Localization in aerial imagery-based maps offers many advantages, such as global consistency, geo-referenced maps, and the availability of publicly accessible data. However, the landmarks that can be observed from both aerial imagery and…
Comparative analysis of scalar fields is an important problem with various applications including feature-directed visualization and feature tracking in time-varying data. Comparing topological structures that are abstract and succinct…
Thousands of scanned historical topographic maps contain valuable information covering long periods of time, such as how the hydrography of a region has changed over time. Efficiently unlocking the information in these maps requires…
Over the past few decades, a significant rise of camera-based applications for traffic monitoring has occurred. Governments and local administrations are increasingly relying on the data collected from these cameras to enhance road safety…
Detecting multiple planes in images is a challenging problem, but one with many applications. Recent work such as J-Linkage and Ordered Residual Kernels have focussed on developing a domain independent approach to detect multiple…
We propose a method to match anatomical locations between pairs of medical images in longitudinal comparisons. The matching is made possible by computing a descriptor of the query point in a source image based on a hierarchical sparse…
In computer vision, finding correct point correspondence among images plays an important role in many applications, such as image stitching, image retrieval, visual localization, etc. Most of the research works focus on the matching of…
Mapping is an important part of many robotic applications. In order to measure the performance of the mapping process we have to measure the quality of its result: the map. The map is essential for robotic algorithms like localization and…
Merge trees, a type of topological descriptor, serve to identify and summarize the topological characteristics associated with scalar fields. They present a great potential for the analysis and visualization of time-varying data. First,…
Aerial image registration or matching is a geometric process of aligning two aerial images captured in different environments. Estimating the precise transformation parameters is hindered by various environments such as time, weather, and…
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) and tractography provide means to study the anatomical structures within the white matter of the brain. When studying tractography data across subjects, it is usually necessary to align, i.e. to…
Image matching approaches have been widely used in computer vision applications in which the image-level matching performance of matchers is critical. However, it has not been well investigated by previous works which place more emphases on…
A robust, resource-efficient, distributed, and minimally parameterized 3D map matching and merging algorithm is proposed. The suggested algorithm utilizes tomographic features from 2D projections of horizontal cross-sections of…
In record linkage (RL), or exact file matching, the goal is to identify the links between entities with information on two or more files. RL is an important activity in areas including counting the population, enhancing survey frames and…
In this investigation we focus on the problem of mapping the ground reflectivity with multiple laser scanners mounted on mobile robots/vehicles. The problem originates because regions of the ground become populated with a varying number of…
Fabricating experimental pictures in research work is a serious academic misconduct, which should better be detected in the reviewing process. However, due to large number of submissions, the detection whether a picture is fabricated or…
Feature matching is an important technique to identify a single object in different images. It helps machines to construct recognition of a specific object from multiple perspectives. For years, feature matching has been commonly used in…
A key aspect of the precision of a mobile robots localization is the quality and aptness of the map it is using. A variety of mapping approaches are available that can be employed to create such maps with varying degrees of effort, hardware…
