Parametric texture synthesis for filling holes in pictures
(IEEE, 2002)This paper presents a framework for "filling in" missing gaps in images and particularly patches with texture. The underlying idea is to construct a parametric model of the p.d.f. of the texture to be re-synthesised and ... -
Sport Video Shot Segmentation and Classification
(SPIE, 2003)This paper considers the statistics of local appearance based measures that are suitable for the visual parsing of sport events. The moments of the colour information are computed, and the shape content in the frames is ... -
Graphics Hardware for Gradient Based Motion Estimation
(SPIE, 2004)Motion estimation and compensation is a key component in video procesing. Motion estimation is necessary for high quality compression. It is also a key component in archive video restoration and motion picture post-production. ... -
Fast Image Interpolation for Motion Estimation using Graphics Hardware,
(SPIE, 2004)Motion estimation and compensation is the key to high quality video coding. Block matching motion estimation is used in most video codecs, including MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.263 and H.26L. Motion estimation is also a key component ... -
Automated editing of medical training video via content analysis
(SPIE, 2006)Physicians in the early part of their training inevitably undertake a course in Anatomy. Unfortunately, the amount of training medical students have with real bodies has decreased. This is further exacerbated with ... -
Effect of ZnS Shell Thickness on the Phonon Spectra in CdSe Quantum Dots
(The American Physical Society, 2003)The evolution of the optical phonon spectra of colloidal core/shell CdSe/ZnS quantum dots with an increase of the shell thickness from 0.5 to 3.4 monolayers has been studied by resonant Raman spectroscopy. The results ... -
Investigation of Precision Grinding Process for Production of Silicon Diaphragms
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2002)The application of precision grinding for the formation of a silicon diaphragm is investigated. The test structures involved 2?6 mm diam diaphragms with thicknesses in the range of 25?150 mm. When grinding is performed ... -
Local Field Effect on Infrared Phonon Frequencies of Thin Dielectric Films
(SPIE, 2003)A number of thin dielectric films deposited onto aluminated glass substrates and onto the materials transparent in the IR range (silicon, KRS-5 and CsI) were investigated using infrared transmission and reflection-absorption ... -
Study of Structure and Quality of Different Silicon Oxides using FTIR and Raman Microscopy
(SPIE, 2003)In this work, SiO2 and fluorine and phosphorous doped SiO2 thin films are investigated using FTIR and Raman techniques. FTIR spectroscopy was performed at normal and oblique incidence of the probe beam in transmission ... -
FTIR and Raman Investigation of Vertically Etched Silicon as 1-D Photonic Crystal
(SPIE, 2003)The reflection spectra of composite materials on the base of grooved silicon and grooved silicon infiltrated with nematic liquid crystal (LC) have been calculated using the optimal parameters of a grooved silicon matrix ... -
Characterisation of Macro-porous Silicon for Electronic Applications
(SPIE, 2003)Micro-Raman spectroscopy was used in this study for the analysis of the influence of process conditions on the strain and stress in macro-porous layers. As expected, it was found that oxidation results in significant wafer ... -
Investigation into the Structure and Composition of Carbon/Carbon-SiC Composites
(2003)In this work, pyrolytical carbon and C-SixCy-SiC coatings were deposited by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) in a 'Cold Wall' reactor. The C/C samples from 'Schunk Kohlenstofftechnik GmbH', Germany were used as substrates. ... -
Phase coherence theory for data-mining and analysis: application studies in spectroscopy
(SPIE, 2005)The paper investigates from the perspective of computer science the phase coherence theory (PCT) and phase coherent data-scatter (PCD-S). These techniques were originally developed for the area of optical tensiographic ... -
Alignment of liquid crystal E7 in composite photonic crystals based on single crystal silicon
