Camera Calibration from a Single Frame of Planar Pattern
A method to calibrate camera from a single frame of planar pattern is presented in this paper. For a camera model with four intrinsic parameters and visible lens distortion, the principal point and distortion coefficients are firstly determined through analysis of the distortion in an image. The distortion is then removed. Finally, the other intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the camera are obtained through direct linear transform followed by bundle adjustment. Theoretically, the method makes it possible to analyze the calibration result at the level of a single frame. Practically, such a method provides a easy way to calibrate a camera used in industrial vision system on line and used in desktop vision system. Experimental results of both simulated data and real images validate the method.

title: A new calibration model of camera lens distortion
abstract: Lens distortion is one of the main factors affecting camera calibration. In this paper, a new model of camera lens distortion is presented, according to which lens distortion is governed by the coefficients of radial distortion and a transform from ideal image plane to real sensor array plane. The transform is determined by two angular parameters describing the pose of the real sensor array plane with respect to the ideal image plane and two linear parameters locating the real sensor array with respect to the optical axis. Experiments show that the new model has about the same correcting effect upon lens distortion as the conventional model including all the radial distortion, decentering distortion and prism distortion. Compared with the conventional model, the new model has fewer parameters to be calibrated and more explicit physical meaning.

title: An Adaptive Selection of Motion for Online Hand-Eye Calibration
abstract: As the robot makes unplanned movement, online hand-eye calibration determines the relative pose between the robot gripper/end-effector and the sensors mounted on it. With noisy measurements, hand-eye calibration is sensitive to small rotations in real applications. Moreover, degenerate cases such as pure translations have no effect in hand-eye calibration. This paper proposes an adaptive motion selection algorithm for online hand-eye calibration, which can adaptively set the thresholds of motion selection according to the characteristics of the unplanned motion sequence. It is achieved by using polynomial-regression to predict the relationship between RMS of calibration error and thresholds. Thus, this procedure leads to an adaptive method of motion selection. It can adapt itself to online hand-eye calibration in various applications. Experiments using simulated data are conducted and present good results. Experiments using real scenes also show that the method is promising.

title: Motion Segmentation by Multibody Trifocal Tensor Using Line Correspondence
abstract: We present a geometric approach to multibody motion segmentation from line correspondences. Given three perspective views containing multiple moving objects, we demonstrate that after applying a polynomial embedding to the line correspondences, they became related by the so-called multibody trilinear constrain and its associated multibody trifocal tensor. We show how to obtain the individual trifocal tensor from the second order derivatives of the multibody trilinear constraint. Given trifocal tensors, we obtain the clustering of the motions and correspondences. Experimental results on synthetic and real dynamic scenes are presented

title: A Hand-Eye Robotic Model for Total Knee Replacement Surgery
abstract: This paper presents a hand-eye robotic model for total knee replacement (TKR) surgery. Unlike existent robot assisted TKR surgery, the proposed model is a surgical robot that combines with a movable hand-eye navigation system, which would use the full potential of both computer-assisted systems. Without using CT images and landmark pins in the patient's bones, it can directly measure the mechanical axis with high precision. This system provides a new approach of the minimally invasive surgery. Experiment results show that the proposed model is promising in the future application.

title: Gait Planning Of Quadruped Robot Based On Third-Order Spline Interpolation
abstract: This paper presented a brief description for the gait planning of quadruped robot named Aibo ERS-7 which is a standard platform in the RoboCup 4-legged league. We approach a spline shaped locus to reduce the dimension of the parameter optimizing space and solve the problem of the significant bias between the planned locus and the real one. The result shows that the spline shaped locus is effective in finding the optimized locus shape in a short time. Finally, the robot achieves a gait faster than any previously known learned gait for Aibo

title: An Improved Fuzzy Image Enhancement Algorithm
abstract: An effective method for fuzzy image enhancement was presented by Russo, which was controlled by tuning of one parameter. The fixed parameter was used for the entire image resulting in over blurring or sharpening of image features in some parts of the image. On the basis of these, in this paper, we applied Russo's algorithm on different kinds of noise and proposed an efficient method to obtain the parameter values adaptively. Firstly, each pixel went through a phase of smoothing and then followed by a phase of combining smoothing and sharpening; Secondly, to effectively enhance image, each pixel local feature was adaptively assigned different parameter values by evaluating pixel local features through a fuzzy membership function; Finally, compared with Russopsilas method and other methods, experimental results indicated that the proposed method could achieve better performance than traditional methods for the enhancement of images corrupted with impulse and Gaussian noise.

title: Application of Immune Classifier Based on Increment of Diversity in the Model Species Genomes Identification
abstract: The model species genomes project has played a very important role in the research of human genomes. By comparing and identifying the genomes' information in the different biological evolution stages with the model species genomes, it is favorable to understand deeply the genomes' structure and function of the advanced species, especially the human being, and to reveal the life's essential law. In the paper, the DNA sequences of three model species including C. elegans, S. cerevisiae and A.thaliana are divided into three types: intron, exon, intergenic DNA at first. The bases of each sequence are given number (1, 2, hellip, N) base by base from the beginning. According to three phases of the codons, we can extract three subsequences which numbers are respectively 3n+1, 3n+2 and 3n+3 (n=0, 1, 2, ...,N/3-1). Calculating respectively the probability of four bases in three subsequence we can attain 12 parameters which are regarded as the state parameters of the diversity sources. Each sequence of intron, exon and intergenic DNA is expressed by a 12-dimension eigenvector. All of these sequences' 12-dimension samples are divided into the training sample set and the testing sample set. Then, according to the immune network theory, a immune classifier based on the diversity increment is constructed, which considers the reciprocal of the diversity increment as affinity function and makes the immune network evolve in the direction of identifying the antigens by submitting unceasingly the antigens one by one, which is a record of the training sample set. Finally, the classifier has high performance and its prediction accuracy is up to 85% by test.

abstract: This demonstration will feature overviews of the C-SAW and GenAWeave projects. The first half of the presentation will introduce the concept of two-level aspect weaving, which unites a <i>model transformation</i> tool with a <i>program transformation</i> engine. From models representing an avionics application, it will be shown how changes to model properties trigger corresponding adaptations to the related source code. The second half of the demonstration is focused on using a program transformation engine to perform the task of aspect weaving. In particular, several crosscutting concerns will be woven into an Object Pascal application.

title: Multimodal Registration using the Discrete Wavelet Frame Transform
abstract: Image registration is a critical step in medical image analysis. In this paper, a novel image registration method based on the discrete wavelet frame transform (DWFT) and the sum of absolute distance (SAD) method is proposed. First, the multimodal images are decomposed by DWFT, which is shift-invariant compared to traditional dyadic wavelet transforms. Then the energy maps are computed from the details sub-band images. Finally, genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted to obtain the minimum SAD between the two energy maps. The proposed method is tested on 50 pairs of two-dimensional T1-weighted and T2-weighted modal images. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method can achieve high accuracy in the rigid transformation case
