Hierarchical Stereo Matching in Two-Scale Space for Cyber-Physical System.

ABSTRACT: Dense disparity map estimation from a high-resolution stereo image is a very difficult problem in terms of both matching accuracy and computation efficiency. Thus, an exhaustive disparity search at full resolution is required. In general, examining more pixels in the stereo view results in more ambiguous correspondences. When a high-resolution image is down-sampled, the high-frequency components of the fine-scaled image are at risk of disappearing in the coarse-resolution image. Furthermore, if erroneous disparity estimates caused by missing high-frequency components are propagated across scale space, ultimately, false disparity estimates are obtained. To solve these problems, we introduce an efficient hierarchical stereo matching method in two-scale space. This method applies disparity estimation to the reduced-resolution image, and the disparity result is then up-sampled to the original resolution. The disparity estimation values of the high-frequency (or edge component) regions of the full-resolution image are combined with the up-sampled disparity results. In this study, we extracted the high-frequency areas from the scale-space representation by using difference of Gaussian (DoG) or found edge components, using a Canny operator. Then, edge-aware disparity propagation was used to refine the disparity map. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms previous methods.

Healthy Operator 4.0: A Human Cyber-Physical System Architecture for Smart Workplaces.

Project description:Recent advances in technology have empowered the widespread application of cyber-physical systems in manufacturing and fostered the Industry 4.0 paradigm. In the factories of the future, it is possible that all items, including operators, will be equipped with integrated communication and data processing capabilities. Operators can become part of the smart manufacturing systems, and this fosters a paradigm shift from independent automated and human activities to Vhuman-cyber-physical systems (HCPSs). In this context, a Healthy Operator 4.0 (HO4.0) concept was proposed, based on a systemic view of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and wearable technology. For the implementation of this relatively new concept, we constructed a unified architecture to support the integration of different enabling technologies. We designed an implementation model to facilitate the practical application of this concept in industry. The main enabling technologies of the model are introduced afterward. In addition, a prototype system was developed, and relevant experiments were conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed system architecture and the implementation framework, as well as some of the derived benefits.

Packaging style design based on visual semantic segmentation technology and intelligent cyber physical system.

Project description:The integration of image segmentation technology into packaging style design significantly amplifies both the aesthetic allure and practical utility of product packaging design. However, the conventional image segmentation algorithm necessitates a substantial amount of time for image analysis, rendering it susceptible to the loss of vital image features and yielding unsatisfactory segmentation results. Therefore, this study introduces a novel segmentation network, G-Lite-DeepLabV3+, which is seamlessly incorporated into cyber-physical systems (CPS) to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of product packaging image segmentation. In this research, the feature extraction network of DeepLabV3 is replaced with Mobilenetv2, integrating group convolution and attention mechanisms to proficiently process intricate semantic features and improve the network's responsiveness to valuable characteristics. These adaptations are then deployed within CPS, allowing the G-Lite-DeepLabV3+ network to be seamlessly integrated into the image processing module within CPS. This integration facilitates remote and real-time segmentation of product packaging images in a virtual environment.Experimental findings demonstrate that the G-Lite-DeepLabV3+ network excels at segmenting diverse graphical elements within product packaging images. Compared to the original DeepLabV3+ network, the intersection over union (IoU) metric shows a remarkable increase of 3.1%, while the mean pixel accuracy (mPA) exhibits an impressive improvement of 6.2%. Additionally, the frames per second (FPS) metric experiences a significant boost of 22.1%. When deployed within CPS, the network successfully accomplishes product packaging image segmentation tasks with enhanced efficiency, while maintaining high levels of segmentation accuracy.

Data driven discovery of cyber physical systems.

Project description:Cyber-physical systems embed software into the physical world. They appear in a wide range of applications such as smart grids, robotics, and intelligent manufacturing. Cyber-physical systems have proved resistant to modeling due to their intrinsic complexity arising from the combination of physical and cyber components and the interaction between them. This study proposes a general framework for discovering cyber-physical systems directly from data. The framework involves the identification of physical systems as well as the inference of transition logics. It has been applied successfully to a number of real-world examples. The novel framework seeks to understand the underlying mechanism of cyber-physical systems as well as make predictions concerning their state trajectories based on the discovered models. Such information has been proven essential for the assessment of the performance of cyber-physical systems; it can potentially help debug in the implementation procedure and guide the redesign to achieve the required performance.

An adaptive map-matching algorithm based on hierarchical fuzzy system from vehicular GPS data.

Project description:An improved hierarchical fuzzy inference method based on C-measure map-matching algorithm is proposed in this paper, in which the C-measure represents the certainty or probability of the vehicle traveling on the actual road. A strategy is firstly introduced to use historical positioning information to employ curve-curve matching between vehicle trajectories and shapes of candidate roads. It improves matching performance by overcoming the disadvantage of traditional map-matching algorithm only considering current information. An average historical distance is used to measure similarity between vehicle trajectories and road shape. The input of system includes three variables: distance between position point and candidate roads, angle between driving heading and road direction, and average distance. As the number of fuzzy rules will increase exponentially when adding average distance as a variable, a hierarchical fuzzy inference system is then applied to reduce fuzzy rules and improve the calculation efficiency. Additionally, a learning process is updated to support the algorithm. Finally, a case study contains four different routes in Beijing city is used to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.

Cross-trees, Edge and Superpixel Priors-based Cost aggregation for Stereo matching.

Project description:In this paper, we propose a novel cross-trees structure to perform the nonlocal cost aggregation strategy, and the cross-trees structure consists of a horizontal-tree and a vertical-tree. Compared to other spanning trees, the significant superiorities of the cross-trees are that the trees' constructions are efficient and the trees are exactly unique since the constructions are independent on any local or global property of the image itself. Additionally, two different priors: edge prior and superpixel prior, are proposed to tackle the false cost aggregations which cross the depth boundaries. Hence, our method contains two different algorithms in terms of cross-trees+prior. By traversing the two crossed trees successively, a fast non-local cost aggregation algorithm is performed twice to compute the aggregated cost volume. Performance evaluation on the 27 Middlebury data sets shows that both our algorithms outperform the other two tree-based non-local methods, namely minimum spanning tree (MST) and segment-tree (ST).

Switchable Glass Enabled Contextualization for a Cyber-Physical Safe and Interactive Spatial Augmented Reality PCBA Manufacturing Inspection System.

Project description:Augmented reality (AR) has been demonstrated to improve efficiency by up to thrice the level of traditional methods. Specifically, the adoption of visual AR is performed widely using handheld and head-mount technologies. Despite spatial augmented reality (SAR) addressing several shortcomings of wearable AR, its potential is yet to be fully explored. To date, it enhances the cooperation of users with its wide field of view and supports hands-free mobile operation, yet it has remained a challenge to provide references without relying on restrictive static empty surfaces of the same object or nearby objects for projection. Towards this end, we propose a novel approach that contextualizes projected references in real-time and on demand, onto and through the surface across a wireless network. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach, we apply the method to the safe inspection of printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) wirelessly networked to a remote automatic optical inspection (AOI) system. A defect detected and localized by the AOI system is wirelessly remitted to the proposed remote inspection system for prompt guidance to the inspector by augmenting a rectangular bracket and a reference image. The rectangular bracket transmitted through the switchable glass aids defect localization over the PCBA, whereas the image is projected over the opaque cells of the switchable glass to provide reference to a user. The developed system is evaluated in a user study for its robustness, precision and performance. Results indicate that the resulting contextualization from variability in occlusion levels not only positively affect inspection performance but also supersedes the state of the art in user preference. Furthermore, it supports a variety of complex visualization needs including varied sizes, contrast, online or offline tracking, with a simple robust integration requiring no additional calibration for registration.

A Cyber-Physical Data Collection System Integrating Remote Sensing and Wireless Sensor Networks for Coffee Leaf Rust Diagnosis.

Project description:Coffee Leaf Rust (CLR) is a fungal epidemic disease that has been affecting coffee trees around the world since the 1980s. The early diagnosis of CLR would contribute strategically to minimize the impact on the crops and, therefore, protect the farmers' profitability. In this research, a cyber-physical data-collection system was developed, by integrating Remote Sensing and Wireless Sensor Networks, to gather data, during the development of the CLR, on a test bench coffee-crop. The system is capable of automatically collecting, structuring, and locally and remotely storing reliable multi-type data from different field sensors, Red-Green-Blue (RGB) and multi-spectral cameras (RE and RGN). In addition, a data-visualization dashboard was implemented to monitor the data-collection routines in real-time. The operation of the data collection system allowed to create a three-month size dataset that can be used to train CLR diagnosis machine learning models. This result validates that the designed system can collect, store, and transfer reliable data of a test bench coffee-crop towards CLR diagnosis.

Depth Estimation for Light-Field Images Using Stereo Matching and Convolutional Neural Networks.

Project description:The paper presents a novel depth-estimation method for light-field (LF) images based on innovative multi-stereo matching and machine-learning techniques. In the first stage, a novel block-based stereo matching algorithm is employed to compute the initial estimation. The proposed algorithm is specifically designed to operate on any pair of sub-aperture images (SAIs) in the LF image and to compute the pair's corresponding disparity map. For the central SAI, a disparity fusion technique is proposed to compute the initial disparity map based on all available pairwise disparities. In the second stage, a novel pixel-wise deep-learning (DL)-based method for residual error prediction is employed to further refine the disparity estimation. A novel neural network architecture is proposed based on a new structure of layers. The proposed DL-based method is employed to predict the residual error of the initial estimation and to refine the final disparity map. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed framework and reveal that the proposed method achieves an average improvement of 15.65% in root mean squared error (RMSE), 43.62% in mean absolute error (MAE), and 5.03% in structural similarity index (SSIM) over machine-learning-based state-of-the-art methods.
