When satellite are available, the localisation of a pedestrian is fairly straightforward. However in cities or indoors, dead reckoning systems are necessary to determine the user's position. Our current research focuses on the development of algorithms and ...
We have developed an algorithm for the rigid-body registration of a 3D CT to a set of C-arm images by matching them to computed cone-beam projections of the CT (DRRs). We precomputed rescaled versions (pyramid) of the CT volume and of the C-arm images. We ...
This thesis focuses on the rigid-body registration of a three-dimensional model of an object to a set of its two-dimensional projections. The main contribution is the development of two registration algorithms that use a continuous model of the volume base ...
Navigation systems are becoing standard in-vehicle equipment. In the future these technologies will take place in new systems called Intelligent Integrated Road Safety Systems. Reaching this high level of integration and these requirements needs more preci ...
This paper presents a method based on a geographical information system (GIS) to model ecological networks in a fragmented landscape. The ecological networks are generated with the help of a landscape model (which integrate human activities) and with a wil ...
This article discusses the problem of GPS integration with dead-reckoning sensors for land vehicle navigation applications. The discussion follows the results of the development and implementation of navigation systems for management of fleets, one of them ...
When satellite signals are available, the localisation of a pedestrian is fairly straightforward. However, in cities or indoors, dead reckoning systems are necessary. Our current research focuses on the development of algorithms for pedestrian navigation i ...
The challenge of knowing one's position in a precise and reliable way, at any time, with and without reception of satellite signals, represents an area fairly explored for the navigation of vehicles. To widen this service to the pedestrians requires a diff ...
Over the last few years, research had been conducted on how to develop basic mobility aid for visually impaired and blind people using vision and image processing techniques. However, our research at Geodetic Engineering Laboratory has taken a different vi ...
In alpine areas, the snow cover plays an important role as a water reservoir. Water is stored as snow over the winter and released in spring, recharging mountain aquifers through infiltration. These aquifers are essential, especially for supplying water fo ...
