For the reconstruction process was performed positioning and coupling orthogonal radiographs, subsequently performed independently for each component of the 3D model, the superficial construction process using different techniques of space projection and intersection with the assistance of parametric software, finally the solids for all the model components are obtained and they are coupled making the necessary Boolean operations in order to assemble them and avoid get any interferences between tem, achieving this way a model that represents adequately the volumetric structure of the leg and it's components, based on the frontal and lateral images of the interest zone.","PeriodicalId":383297,"journal":{"name":"2012 XVII Symposium of Image, Signal Processing, and Artificial Vision (STSIVA)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125378049","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}

Many techniques have been developed to solve this problem. Methods based on alignments of sequences like BLASTP are the most commonly used. However, these techniques have been criticized due to their on failures detecting homologous sequences under some identity thresholds between sequences. Although this is an argument frequently cited, there are no plublished studies truly showing the performance variances regarding the identity percentage between sequences. This study is fundamental to support studies that look for developing alternative methods. The present work contains an analysis of the influence of identity percentage between training sequences for BLASTP in the ontology annotation of proteins belonging to Embryophyta organisms (land plants).","PeriodicalId":383297,"journal":{"name":"2012 XVII Symposium of Image, Signal Processing, and Artificial Vision (STSIVA)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114441092","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}

To deal with these hearing losses, independent hearing aids have been typically used. However, psycho-acoustical studies using these prescriptions show that under hostile environments, e.g., babble noise at low SNR, people with a binaural hearing loss report an uncomfortable sound. In this sense, new generation hearing aids, called binaural hearing aids, have been proposed to include a wireless link to exchange information between both hearing devices. Although different noise-reduction methods have been proposed to be used in binaural hearing aids, they are impractical due to their hardware requirements such as computational complexity and wireless transmission bandwidth. In this paper, we propose binaural noise-reduction strategies based on multichannel Wiener filter (MWF) that reduces computational complexity and transmission bandwidth. The proposed strategy is compared to other existing MWF method, showing that our proposed method provides significant advantages.","PeriodicalId":383297,"journal":{"name":"2012 XVII Symposium of Image, Signal Processing, and Artificial Vision (STSIVA)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131032583","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}

Such systems can warn people about possible risks, take actions to avoid accidents or guide the vehicle without human supervision. Whether in cars or trains or ships the artificial vision algorithms offer an alternative for the design and implementation of autonomous driving systems. In railway scenarios cameras in front of the train can assist drivers with the identification of obstacles or strange objects on the rails. Multiple factors add huge complexity to this task. The changing conditions create a scene where background is hard to detect, lighting varies and process speed must be fast. This article describes a first approximation to the problem where using the Hough transform, the rails and area of interest are detected. On this area a systematic search is done for finding and delimiting possible obstacles. Our system accomplished a real time performance when employed in the analysis of recorded videos from the driver perspective. Using digital added obstacles our algorithm detects mostly all of them and warns if the objects over the rail can create a danger to the safety travel of the train.","PeriodicalId":383297,"journal":{"name":"2012 XVII Symposium of Image, Signal Processing, and Artificial Vision (STSIVA)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116311098","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 manipulability index is one of the parameters to optimize of a multiobjective method of trajectory planning in serial manipulators used in welding.

Automate such process requires the characterization of contours of holes in model surface. Recent works are restricted to do this characterization using differential geometry properties of curves, torsion and curvature. Other features such as contour symmetry and similarity with predefined geometric shapes are of great relevance for hole-classification by the human expert. These characteristics are not extractable by differential geometry of curves, thus require other types of representations. This paper presents a method to obtain a representation of 3D chain code from an unstructured sequence of points of a hole contour in the surface of a 3D model. This approximates a NURBS curve to smooth the contour of the hole and minimize the effect of noise in the data. Then use Bresenham algorithm for structuring the points by an array of dimension 3×3×3. Finally, the chain code is calculated by an indexing algorithm. The results show this method preserves the shape and contour behavior, structures the point set and allow to obtain efficiently the chain code representation.","PeriodicalId":383297,"journal":{"name":"2012 XVII Symposium of Image, Signal Processing, and Artificial Vision (STSIVA)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123464662","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}
