In image processing, information fusion techniques are able to significantly reduce uncertainty and inaccuracy in the information obtained from any single source alone. In this paper, a new method based on D-S evidence theory and ANOVA (Analysis Of Variance) method is proposed for image fusion. ANOVA method is employed for detecting potential edges in image. To deal with the uncertain weak edge and the difficulty in threshold selection, D-S evidence theory is then applied. Since D-S evidence theory has the advantage of conveniently representing uncertain information and dealing with information from multi-images, edges to be fused could be preserved as much as possible, which may be useful for further processing, such as image analysis and image understanding. The proposed image fusion method can be applied to fusing different types of images, such as visible and infrared images, remote sensing images and so on. Experiment results on the fusion of different types of images have demonstrated the robustness and efficiency of the proposed method. It has been shown that the fused edge image has more complete and reliable edge information than that from any of the original image.","PeriodicalId":136611,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Conference on Information Acquisition","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116026238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The field of airflow which is jetted from the nozzle of the gyroscope rotating in different angular velocities has been obtained by application of the program ANSYS-FLOTRAN CFD. The results show that: when in the state of gyroscope at rest, the air velocity is distributed symmetrically along the central axis of the cavity, the currents crossing and the airflow around hot wires are both equal, the output of the bridge circuit is zero; otherwise, the difference of air velocities at both hot wires brings about the transform of the difference of currents crossing hot wires, and varies with angular velocities, which leads to the asymmetrical velocity of jet flow and affects the bridge output voltage. The FEA provides a valid approach for optimization of the piezoelectric fluidic gyroscope.","PeriodicalId":136611,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Conference on Information Acquisition","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115397751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As affective computing remains unpredictable, creating a reasonable mental model becomes the primary task for building a hybrid system. A pragmatic mental model is also the fundament of some key topics such as recognition and synthesis of emotions. In this paper a mental state transition network is presented and a psychological experiment based on the model is carried out. In this work, we hypothesize that internal mental movements of a human depend on a mental state transition network that is made up of seven discrete emotional states. And we propose a new method to predict the emotional transitional probability distribution by using psychological questionnaires. The transition probability distribution of the model is calculated through a psychological experiment and the model provided a relatively high precision rate of 0.872 for the 50 random data examples used in an experimentation.","PeriodicalId":136611,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Conference on Information Acquisition","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123327198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed controller, which is capable of rate-based predictive control, consists of two sub-systems: a long-term policy critic and a short-term rate-adaptor. Each controller in a chained network jointly learns the control policy by real-time interactions without prior knowledge of a network model. Furthermore, a cooperative fuzzy reward evaluator provides cooperative reinforcement signals based on game theory to train controllers to adapt to dynamic network environment. The well-trained controllers can take correct actions adaptively to regulate source flow to simultaneously meet the requirements of high link utilization, low packet loss rate (PLR) and end-to-end delay. Simulation results show that the proposed approach is very effective in controlling congestion of the multimedia traffic in Internet networks.","PeriodicalId":136611,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Conference on Information Acquisition","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123664209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we present a new method that addresses several challenges in automatic detection of ROI of neurosurgical video for ROI coding which is used for neurophysiological intraoperative monitoring (IOM) system. This method is based on an object tracking technique with the multivariate density estimation theory, combined with the shape information of the object in the neurosurgical video. By defining the ROIs for neurosurgical video, this method produces a smooth and convex emphasis region within which surgical procedures are performed. A large bandwidth budget is assigned within the ROI to archive high-fidelity Internet transmission. Outside the ROI, a small bandwidth budget is allocated to efficiently utilize the bandwidth resource in Internet connection. And we believe this method also can be used to the image-guide surgery (IGS) system to track the positions of surgical instruments in the physical space occupied by the patient after some improvement.","PeriodicalId":136611,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Conference on Information Acquisition","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124663305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the help of a commercially available high-speed photography system, field tests have been performed. The experimental results show that the force sensing system is effective in getting the force information of the shot-put athletes. In this manner, the force sensing system serves as a powerful tool for coaches and sports scientists to make scientific researches on shot-put techniques.
