Usually, in particle filters applied to video tracking, a simple geometrical shape, typically an ellipse, is used in order to bound the object being tracked. Although it is a good tracker, it tends to a bad object ...

This paper presents a video coding scheme for very low bit rate applications. The coding approach relies on active meshes and can be viewed as a particular case of region-based coding. The active mesh is used to efficiently ...

Se presenta una adaptación de algoritmos de reconstrucción 3D en escenarios multi-cámara a un entorno multiprocesador que permita aprovechar la capacidad de cálculo de los nuevos procesadores gráficos (GPUs), con el objetivo ...

The brain and the spinal cord that extends from it makes up the central nervous system whose main function is to transmit signals between the brain and the rest of the body. In this way, the nervous system's activity ...

This project is a dive into the methods and technologies behind the state-of-the-art motion picture cameras, followed by an analysis of the attributes that contribute to the desired photographic “look”. The first part ...

MVD (Multiview Video plus Depth) data consists of two components: color video and depth maps sequences. Depth maps represent the spatial arrangement (or three dimensional geometry) of the scene. The MVD representation is ...

The way an instrument is learned to be played has changed a lot since the rise of the internet, specially the show up of YouTube. High amounts of people learn to play instruments such as the guitar from watching videos and ...

It is about designing a system that allows you to measure balls from a reference, without having to bend over. To do this, a smartphone is used, which will be the device by which an intuitive image can be obtained for the ...

Small-scale tests are an example of the versatile, easiness and repeatability of laboratory tests. In recent years, the use of centrifuge to perform such tests has been increasing, achieving tension ranges similar to the ...
