To assess the daylighting performances of a building, one of the most commonly used quantities is the Daylight factor, which is defined for a given surface element inside the analysed room as the ratio of the inside and outside illuminances under a CIE ove ...
Semantic segmentation is generally associated with second generation video coders, or object-based coders. Object-based coders encode different video objects separately in order to achieve lower bitrates and to enable object-based functionalities. In this ...
A detailed knowledge of the light distribution characteristics through advanced window systems is required to improve the visual comfort of the building's occupants while controlling the propagation of daylight in rooms and the solar gains. An innovative b ...
In this paper, we propose a fast algorithm for gesture recognition based on the saliency maps of visual attention. A tuned saliency-based model of visual attention is used to find potential hand regions in video frames. To obtain the overall movement of th ...

A method for marking a compressed digital video signal by embedding a digital signature in the compressed video signal, the signal representing a series of at least two video images, each image being divided into a plurality of regions, the signal includin ...
We present an interactive content-based video browser allowing fast, non linear and hierarchical navigation of video over the Internet through multiple levels of key-frames that provide a visual summary of video content. Our method is based on an XML frame ...
This paper presents a video OCR system that automatically extracts closed captions from video frames as keywords (or as we called "cues") for building annotations of sport videos. In this system, text regions that contain closed captions are first identifi ...

The invention concerns a wireless data communication method, wherein a transmitter device (2) having a first broadband antenna (27) transmits ultra wideband coded data signals to a receiver device (3) having a second broadband antenna (37) for receiving th ...
Video signals are sequences of natural images, where images are often modeled as piecewise-smooth signals. Hence, video can be seen as a 3D piecewise-smooth signal made of piecewise-smooth regions that move through time. Based on the piecewise-smooth model ...
