Historical City Maps Semantic Segmentation Dataset

This dataset includes a total of 635 annotated image patches from historical city maps. It is designed for the semantic segmentation of the maps into 5 semantic classes (building blocks, non-built, water, road network, background frame). 330 patches are ta ...

Generic Semantic Segmentation of Historical Maps

Frédéric Kaplan, Isabella Di Lenardo, Rémi Guillaume Petitpierre

Research in automatic map processing is largely focused on homogeneous corpora or even individual maps, leading to inflexible models. Based on two new corpora, the first one centered on maps of Paris and the second one gathering maps of cities from all ove ...

Neural networks for semantic segmentation of historical city maps: Cross-cultural performance and the impact of figurative diversity

Rémi Guillaume Petitpierre

In this work, we present a new semantic segmentation model for historical city maps that surpasses the state of the art in terms of flexibility and performance. Research in automatic map processing is largely focused on homogeneous corpora or even individu ...

Not all anxious individuals get lost: trait anxiety and mental rotation ability interact to explain performance in map-based route learning in men

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, John Christian Thoresen, Rebecca Francelet

Navigation through an environment is a fundamental human activity. Although group differences in navigational ability are documented (e.g., gender), little is known about traits that predict these abilities. Apart from a well-established link between menta ...

Traveling Salesman in Reverse: Conditional Markov Entropy for Trajectory Segmentation

Patrick Thiran, Matthias Grossglauser, Mohamed Kafsi

We are interested in inferring the set of waypoints (or intermediate destinations) of a mobility trajectory in the absence of timing information. We find that, by mining a dataset of real mobility traces, computing the entropy of conditional Markov traject ...

View-Based Maps

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Michael Calonder

Robotic systems that can create and use visual maps in realtime have obvious advantages in many applications, from automatic driving to mobile manipulation in the home. In this paper we describe a mapping system based on retaining views of the environment ...

Rotation correlation maps

Touradj Ebrahimi

A correlation map shows the correlation between an image region and another image computed at the neighbourhood of each point of the second image. Most cross-correlation techniques fail when the viewpoint rotation grows over a certain value, usually around ...

Chromatic adaptation performance of different RGB sensors

Sabine Süsstrunk

Chromatic adaptation transforms are used in imaging system to map image appearance to colorimetry under different illumination sources. In this paper, the performance of different chromatic adaptation transforms (CAT) is compared with the performance of tr ...
