Removing Foreground Occlusions in Light Field using Micro-lens Dynamic Filter

Foreground occlusion removal task aims to automatically detect and remove foreground occlusions and recover background objects. Since for Light Fields (LFs), background objects occluded in some views may be seen in other views, the foreground occlusion removal task for LFs is easy to achieve. In this paper, we propose a learning-based method combining ‘seeking’ and ‘generating’ to recover occluded background. Specifically, the micro-lens dynamic filters are proposed to ‘seek’ occluded background points in shifted micro-lens images and remove occlusions using angular information. The shifted images are then combined to further ‘generate’ background regions to supplement more background details using spatial information. By fully exploring the angular and spatial information in LFs, the dense and complex occlusions can be easily removed. Quantitative and qualitative experimental results show that our method outperforms other state-of-the-arts methods by a large margin.

SYNTHESIS OF NANOSCALED MAGNETIC MATERIALS ON THE BASIS OF OXIDE SYSTEMS AND MANUFACTURING OF NON-RECIPROCAL COMPOSITE ELEMENTS BASED ON THEM

Nanoscaled particles of nickel-zinc ferrites solid solutions were synthesized by the method of precipitation from aqueous solutions, as initial reagents were used nitrates solutions, namely Fe(NO3)3, Ni(NO3)2 and Zn(NO3)3. Cylindrical composite resonant elements in a form of systems “high-Q non-magnetic dielectric – magnetic film” were manufactured using synthesized particles. As a non-magnetic dielectric was used barium tetratitanate BaTi4O9 with a doping of ZnO. For this the film-forming suspension consisted of synthesized ferrite particles and photopolymer was prepared. The suspension was applied on the end face of the dielectric resonator and polymerized by the UV radiation. Magnetic field of electromagnet was applied to the composite resonators during the magnetic film polymerization process (parallel or normal to the resonators axis). Absorption spectra of composite resonators in the waveguide measuring cell under influence of an external magnetic field were obtained. Spectra confirm the opportunity to control the resonance frequency of the composite structure and energy absorption in it using the external permanent magnetic field. The tuning of composite resonators parameters was more efficient for the resonators with the film polymerized in the parallel to the resonator axis field. For the frequency shift and electromagnetic isolation were obtained the values of 71 MHz and 53 dB respectively but with a high “straight” energy losses in the area of ferromagnetic resonance. So, the measuring cell with the composite resonator located in it was simulated using an Ansys HFSS software. Respective absorption spectra were obtained. It is shown that it is possible to manufacture composite resonators with a needed for the practical applications characteristics level (reverse losses were 34 dB, straight losses were 0.8 dB) and a tuning ability for the development of superheterodyne transmitters, dynamic filters for microwave technics, microwave valves, etc.

About Raising of the Gas Vortex Stabilization Efficiency in Plasma Torch for Metal Cutting

Influence of gas distribution uniformity in the channels of air-gas paths on efficiency and quality of metals cutting is noted for plasmatrons of various updating. It is shown, that application of gas-dynamic filters promotes efficiency and quality of plasmatrons with the one-line scheme of air-gas pathswork. The technique for estimation of gas distribution uniformity in the channels of metal-cutting plasmatron is presented.
