A computer vision method for measuring multiple pointer meters is proposed based on the inverse perspective mapping. First, the measured meter scales are used as the calibration objects to obtain the extrinsic parameters of the meter plane. Second, normal vector of the meter plane can be acquired by the extrinsic parameters, obtaining the rotation transformation matrix of the meter image. Then, the acquired meter image is transformed to a position both parallel to the meter plane and near the main point by the rotation transformation matrix and the extrinsic parameters, eliminating the perspective effect of the acquired image. Finally, the transformed image is tested by the visual detection method to obtain the readings of the pointer meter, improving measurement precision. The results of the measurement verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the method.

Pedestrian detection with large intraclass variations is still a challenging task in computer vision. In this paper, we propose a novel pedestrian detection method based on Random Forest. Firstly, we generate a few local templates with different sizes and different locations in positive exemplars. Then, the Random Forest is built whose splitting functions are optimized by maximizing class purity of matching the local templates to the training samples, respectively. To improve the classification accuracy, we adopt a boosting-like algorithm to update the weights of the training samples in a layer-wise fashion. During detection, the trained Random Forest will vote the category when a sliding window is input. Our contributions are the splitting functions based on local template matching with adaptive size and location and iteratively weight updating method. We evaluate the proposed method on 2 well-known challenging datasets: TUD pedestrians and INRIA pedestrians. The experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art or competitive performance.

Nowadays, due to the advantages of non-contact and high-speed, vision-based pose measurements have been widely used for aircraft performance testing in a wind tunnel. However, usually glass ports are used to protect cameras against the high-speed airflow influence, which will lead to a big measurement error. In this paper, to further improve the vision-based pose measurement accuracy, an imaging model which considers the refraction light of the observation window was proposed. In this method, a nonlinear camera calibration model considering the refraction brought by the wind tunnel observation window, was established first. What’s more, a new method for the linear calibration of the normal vector of the glass observation window was presented. Then, combining with the proposed matching method based on coplanarity constraint, the six pose parameters of the falling target could be calculated. Finally, the experimental setup was established to conduct the pose measurement study in the laboratory, and the results satisfied the application requirements. Besides, experiments for verifying the vision measurement accuracy were also performed, and the results indicated that the displacement and angle measurement accuracy approximately increased by 57% and 33.6%, respectively, which showed the high accuracy of the proposed method.

Abstrak. Metode Baru Deteksi Tepi untuk Batik Indonesia. Didalam paper ini, diusulkan sebuah metode pendeteksi baru untuk motif batik. Deteksi tepi sudah sangat sering digunakan didalam pemrosesan gambar. Batik motif adalah salah satu contoh gambar yang memiliki bentuk yang unik dan menarik untuk dianalisis. Metode yang digunakan pada paper ini adalam metode canny dan prewit dan akan menghasilkan metode baru yaitu metode Thomas. Perbedaan antara metode dan hasil akan dilihat dari sisi ketepatan, qualitas hasil dan kejelasan. Contoh batik yang akan digunakan adalah motif parang, motife lereng dan udan liris. Ketiga batik tersebut memiliki pola  yang unik. Kata kunci : Canny, Prewitt, Thomas, Batik, Parang, Lereng, Udan liris. Abstract. New Edge Detection Method for Indonesian Batik. In this paper, we propose a new edge detection analysis method on batiks motif. Edge detection has been oftenly  used in computer vision and image processing. Indonesian  Batiks motif are some example of graphic picture that has unique pattern that interesting to analyse. The method that used for example on this paper are canny and prewit and produce a new method, thomas method. the different  amongs the method, the result of comparison appears on quality, accuracy and clarity. The example that we use are parang batiks motive, lereng batiks motive, and udan liris batiks motive. Three of batiks motive above are have unique pattern. Keywords: Canny, Prewitt, Thomas, Batik, Parang, Lereng, Udan liris.
