Dynamic Attentive System for Omnidirectional Video

Pierre-André Farine, Iva Bogdanova Vandergheynst

In this paper, we propose a dynamic attentive system for detecting the most salient regions of interest in omnidirectional video. The spot selection is based on computer modeling of dynamic visual attention. In order to operate on video sequences, the proc ...

Low bit-rate compression of omnidirectional images

Pascal Frossard, Ivana Tosic

Omnidirectional images represent a special type of images that are captured by vision sensors with a 360-degree field of view. This work targets the compression of such images by taking into account their particular geometry. We first map omnidirectional i ...

The spherical approach to omnidirectional visual attention

Heinz Hügli, Iva Bogdanova Vandergheynst, Alexandre Bur

Computational visual attention (VA) has been widely investigated during the last three decades but the conventional algorithms are not suitable for omnidirectional images which often contain a significant amount of radial distortion. Only recently a comput ...

Visual Attention on the Sphere

Heinz Hügli, Iva Bogdanova Vandergheynst, Alexandre Bur

Human visual system makes an extensive use of visual attention in order to select the most relevant information and speed-up the vision process. Inspired by visual attention, several computer models have been developped and many computer vision application ...

On the use of the equal area rule for the wire-grid representation of metallic surfaces

Marcos Rubinstein, Abraham Rubinstein

This paper presents a brief theoretical discussion on the issue of the wire-grid representation of surfaces using the Numerical Electromagnetics Code (NEC). Different approaches for the determination of the parameters (in particular, the segment radii) of ...

On the behavior of spherical and non-spherical grain assemblies, its modeling and numerical simulation

Lionel Pournin

This thesis deals with the numerical modeling and simulation of granular media with large populations of non-spherical particles. Granular media are highly pervasive in nature and play an important role in technology. They are present in fields as diverse ...
