Determining heart parameters through left ventricular automatic segmentation for heart disease diagnosis
(2009)
Segmentation of the left ventricle in echocardiographic images is a task with important diagnostic power. This paper describes a method for the calculation of the ventricle?s contours in long- and short-axis views. The ...
Knowledge-based road traffic monitoring
(2007)
This article presents a knowledge-based application to study and analyze traffic behavior on major roads, using as the main surveillance artefact a video camera mounted on a relatively high place with a significant image ...
Holonic multi-agent system model for fuzzy automatic speech / speaker recognition
(2008)
An automatic speech / speaker recognition (ASSR) system has to adapt to possible changes of speaker and environment conditions, and act as close as possible to the way a human recognizes speeches / speakers. This kind of ...
Algorithmic lateral inhibition method in dynamic and selective visual attention task: application to moving objects detection and labelling.
(2006)
In a recent article, knowledge modelling at the knowledge level for the task of moving objects detection in image sequences has been introduced. In this paper, the algorithmic lateral inhibition (ALI) method is now applied ...
Motion-based stereovision model with potential utility in robot navigation.
(2005)
Autonomous robot guidance in dynamic environments requires, on the one hand, the study of relative motion of the objects of the environment with respect to the robot, and on the other hand, the analysis of the depth towards ...
The underlying formal model of algorithmic lateral inhibition
(2007)
Many researchers have explored the relationship between recurrent neural networks and finite state machines. Finite state machines constitute the best characterized computational model, whereas artificial neural networks ...
Agent-based modeling of a mobile robot to detect and follow humans.
(2009)
This paper introduces a multi-agent system (MAS) approach using the detailed process provided by Prometheus methodology for the design of a moving robot application for the detection and following of humans. Our conjecture ...
Vision-based text segmentation system for generic display units
(2009)
The increasing use of display units in avionics motivate the need for vision-based text recognition systems to assist humans. The system for generic displays proposed in this paper includes some of the usual text recognition ...
Development of intelligent multi-sensor surveillance systems with agents
(2007)
Intelligent multisensor surveillance systems consist of several types of sensors, which are installed on fixed and mobile devices. These components provide a huge quantity of information that has to be contrasted, correlated ...
Dynamic visual attention model in image sequences
(2007)
A new computational architecture of dynamic visual attention is introduced in this paper. Our approach defines a model for the generation of an active attention focus on a dynamic scene captured from a still or moving ...
