Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is increasingly popular as platforms for inspection, professional mapping, and modeling issues. UAV as a low-cost alternative to the classical manned aerial photogrammetry can survey buildings of various heights to take the necessary angle for a favorable photo. This paper presents results of using 3D reconstruction technique based on 2D pictures of a building taken by UAV. Automation and feasible image orientation create images to be processed in the latest developments of UAV image processing methods for photogrammetric applications, mapping, and 3D modeling issues. Images from a campus building construction in Bandung was taken for a case study using UAV with an attached camera. The images were processed to generate a 3D model of campus building using several integrated software. The integrated software was used to create image processing, mapping, orthophoto, and meshing. By using the proposed setting of altitude, overlapping percentage, direction of flight, the results show good quality of regenerated images which contain information of altitude and position of the building.

In this study, we develop an application to convert an image into bas reliefs, a kind of 3D sculpture on a flat surface, by using image processing techniques. First, the color image is converted into gray image, and then is used as a base surface in xy-coordinate. Two different methods for determining height in z-coordinate provides two different carving styles. In the first method, the height is specified by using gray value of the blurred image, while the second specifies the height by using gray value of the dilation of the edge image. Frame effect is then created by adding a flat plane around the carving. The experiment shows that the application can transfer visual contents of the image into the bas reliefs and also can generate artistic reliefs model easily.

Sign language is a language used by dumb and deaf people to communicate with normal people. Normal people use sounds, unlike them, this language uses visualcommunication to convey the thoughts of dumb and deaf people. Sign language is achieved by continuously showing hands, the orientation of fingers, and facial expressions. In this project, we will develop a programmatic model that converts voice to sign language and also sign language to voice/text. we may be using different APIs (python modules or Google API) and natural language processing semantics to break the text into a large number of smaller understandable words which require machine learning as a part. Predefined alphabet signs are given as inputs to the model. So this can use Artificial Intelligence technology to translate audio into sign language and sign language to text.

Technical schemes such as uniform TEC component feeding, posture adjustment, multi-station positioning, and communication between upper and lower machines were designed. The opto-electromechanical integration mechanism was integrated by software to realize the detection of TEC component surface defects, and qualified TEC components were separated from unqualified TEC components by blow sieving. Adopt ARM MCU for real-time control; Image recognition adopts the machine vision deep learning platform based on linux to learn and recognize the TEC components, and sends the results to the lower computer for sieving. The accuracy of triggering the camera to take pictures is 99.9%, which provides a guarantee for capturing and processing images accurately. The accuracy of blow sieving is over 99.9%, which can meet the sieving requirements. The electrical control system of the whole machine can meet the motion control requirements of detection.

Lifting Wavelet transform (LWT) has an extensive usage in different image processing applications as image compression and information hiding. LWT is considered a good solution for hardware designs as it relies only on integer calculations while applying the wavelet transform. In this paper, an FPGA design and implementation of LWT is presented, the implementation is achieved using VHDL coding without importing off-shelf components which make the proposed design applicable to a wide range of devices. The design is based on parallel execution to perform LWT implementation with real time response. The design utilized 421 logic registers of DE2 Cyclone ii (EP2C35F672C6) FPGA device with 151.91MHz frequency.

A high yellow yolk color of laying hens is required by customer. As yolk color measurement is determined by visual perception, color score may be expressed differently. The objective of this study was to develop the recognition of yolk color using red green blue (RGB) image and deep learning. The three hundred and fifty-three RGB images were obtained. The rectified linear unit (ReLU) and softmax were used as the activation function. An optimizer was configured with Adam, and categorical crossentropy was used as a loss function. The results showed that the loss had decreased to 0.45 and 0.63, whereas the accuracy had increased and reached 0.80 and 0.76 for training dataset and testing dataset, respectively. For evaluation, the loss value was 0.27 and 0.63, whereas the accuracy value was 0.90 and 0.76 for training dataset and testing dataset, respectively. The average f1-score was 0.76, whereas the highest precision (1.00) was observed in color score 5, 6 and 8. In conclusion, RGB image can be used as an alternative method to classify yolk color score with lower cost of analysis for egg producers in the near future.

This paper mainly deals with the development of a defect classification system that uses Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to classify weld defects based on ultrasonic test data. The system enables real-time identification of weld defects which finds application in testing of critical welding applications and also reduces dependency on skilled workforce for the function. The study mainly consists of three parts- (i) Weld defect detection using Ultrasonic Testing (UT) (ii) Implementation of ANN (iii) Defect classification. An ultrasonic test performed on welded samples shows different results for welds with and without defects and further between defects as well. The ultrasonic test data is fed into the ANN algorithm to train it to identify the various weld defects. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is an informationprocessing paradigm that uses a large number of highly interconnected processing elements called neurons, working in unison to solve the specific problems. There are two types of neural network architectures that are used for classification - a back propagation network (BPN) and a probabilistic neural network (PNN). Back propagation network has been used for the purpose of this study. In order to test the performance of the back propagation neural network, four classes of defect namely porosity, lack of side wall fusion, lack of penetration and slag inclusion are considered.

Background The care of rheumatic diseases is currently episodic, based on visits every 3-6 months at the rheumatologist, which may fail to characterize the condition state. To address this issue, the research community is investigating ways to use smartphones and sensors to monitor conditions passively. Objectives Explore associations between smartphone-generated data, standardized functional tests, and Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMS) to support the creation of digital endpoints. Methods Participants from Portugal and Austria participated in a Data Collection that included: (i) physical activities, such as walking with a smartphone in the pocket; (ii) hand dexterity exercises, such as copying text sentences with the smartphone keyboard; (iii) downloading and processing sociability data from the participants' smartphone; (iv) performing functional tests, such as Moberg Pickup Test (Moberg) and Timed Up-and-Go (TUG); and (v) answering validated PROMS, such as MD-HAQ, EQ-5D-5L, and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, fatigue, and disease activity. Statistical analysis focused on the correlation between smartphone-collected data and functional tests or PROMs, and independent t-test for between-group comparison. Results We collected data from 59 participants (76% female, 24% male). From this set, 31 were patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis (45%), rheumatoid arthritis (26%), or psoriatic arthritis (29%). The remaining 28 were age-matched healthy controls. In terms of age, 17% of participants were under 41 years old, 52% were between 41 and 60, and 31% were 61 or older. Most patients reported stiffness or pain in the upper (90%) and lower (83%) parts of the body. Subjective health status was high (M=77.95, SD= 16.31) in the VAS of EQ-5D-5L. Independent t-tests (Table 1) showed significant differences between patient and control groups regarding Mobility (M= 1.90, SD= 0.77), Pain/Well-Being (M= 2.48, SD= 0.81), and Mental Health (M= 1.68, SD=0.83) with higher
