Comparative Study of Structure-from-Motion Algorithms 3D Shape Reconstruction
Abstract: 3D shape reconstruction from multiview photographs and video sequences (2D images) is an active area of research. Existing face recognition systems are based on 2D facial images and exhibit well-known deficiencies. Accordingly, the face recognition research is gradually shifting from classical 2D to sophisticated 3D or hybrid 2D/3D. Currently the 3D reconstruction algorithms may be grouped in to four categories. These are shape-from-X, 3D morphable model (3DMM), structure from motion …

Alzheimer Detection Using MRI Imaging Modality
Abstract: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurological disease that affects memory and livelihood of the people that are diagnosed with it. Many different imaging modalities have been used to help diagnose the disease. Each of these modalities offers something different towards the detection and possible treatments for AD. In this project, we developed a new approach based on mathematical and image processing techniques for better classification of AD. We proposed to …

A Review on Fundamental Premises and Algorithmic Approaches in Compressive Sensing
Abstract: This paper addresses the classical approach of acquiring signals by following the well celebrated Shannon sampling theorem that underlies the majority devices of current technology, viz. analog-to-digital conversion, medical imaging, or audio and video electronics. In medical imaging, there are problems related to acquisition time and compression. Compressive sensing (CS) paradigm addresses the shortcomings of traditional data acquisition by sampling signals much more efficiently. CS is a novel kind of …

Challenges and Remedies for Stray Loss Prediction and Reduction for Power Transformer
Abstract: Power transformer facilitates the bulk power transmission for long distance. Cost wise it is one of the costliest objects of power system. This is the reason; their design has been a major concern and the subject of extended research. Nowadays customers are asking for highly efficient transformers in lower cost. That means, continual improvements, analyses and innovative techniques have to be adopted by designers and manufacturers. The stray loss analysis …

Performance Improvement of Digital Video Watermarking
Abstract: In this paper, implementation and performance analysis of digital video watermarking that uses the combination of the transform domain processing of the video and fundamentals of the linear algebra are stated. We used concept of discrete wavelet transform and singular value decomposition for the development of the proposed algorithm. We first applied discrete wavelet transform and then used the singular values, obtained by singular value decomposition, for the insertion of …
