Nowadays, sensors are massively used for different types of applications, ranging from the control of production processes to the continuous monitoring of systems of various kinds. Often, due to the large amount of data collected, it can be difficult to fully understand them or extract their inherent value. For this reason, the main research object...
Les travaux présentés dans cette habilitation à diriger des recherches visent à mettre à contribution les structures topologiques et hiérarchiques pour améliorer les opérations de reconstruction 3D et optimiser les algorithmes de simulation d’éclairage par lancé de rayons.Les structures de données utilisées en modélisation géométrique à base topolo...
Das Fraunhofer IGD hat seine Forschungsaktivitäten vor Kurzem in vier Leitthemen gebündelt, welche die Basis seiner Arbeit bilden und verschiedene Themen abteilungsübergreifend miteinander verknüpfen. Eines dieser Leitthemen ist "Visual Computing as a Service - Die Plattform für angewandtes Visual Computing". Die Basis dieser universellen Plattform...
Hand gesture recognition is recently becoming one of the most attractive field of research in pattern recognition. The objective of this track is to evaluate the performance of recent recognition approaches using a challenging hand gesture dataset containing 14 gestures, performed by 28 participants executing the same gesture with two different num...
Acquisition of 3D geometry, texture and optical material properties of real objects still consumes a considerable amount of time, and forces humans to dedicate their full attention to this process. We propose CultLab3D, an automatic modular 3D digitization pipeline, aiming for efficient mass digitization of 3D geometry, texture, and optical materia...
Dans tout projet de paysage, le dessin est un outil de conception et de communication. À travers une série d'entretiens, il s'agit de s'interroger sur les rapports entre les mutations technologiques, en particulier l'essor de l'infographie, l'évolution professionnelle de la maîtrise d'œuvre et les attentes de la maîtrise d'ouvrage. Quels enjeux son...
Face plastic surgery (PS) plays a major role in today medicine. Both for reconstructive and cosmetic surgery, achieving harmony of facial features is an important, if not the major goal. Several systems have been proposed for presenting to patient and surgeon possible outcomes of the surgical procedure. In this work, we present a new 3D system able...
This tutorial presents probability theory techniques for boosting linear algorithms. The approach is based on statistics and uses educated guesses instead of comprehensive calculations. Because estimates can be calculated in sublinear time, many algorithms can benefit from statistical estimation. Several examples show how to significantly boost lin...
This thesis covers research on new and alternative ways of interaction with computers. Virtual Reality and multi touch setups are discussed with a focus on three dimensional rendering and photographic applications in the field of Computer Graphics. Virtual Reality (VR) and Virtual Environments (VE) were once thought to be the future interface to co...
L'émergence des périphériques de capture numériques ont permis le dé- veloppement de l'acquisition 3D pour numériser les propriétés d'un objet réel : sa forme et son apparence. Ce processus fournit une représentation dense et précise d'objets réels et permet de s'abstraire d'un processus de simulation physique coûteux pour modéliser un objet. Ainsi...
