The diabetic foot is one of the most devastating complications related to diabetic. Its significant transcendence is related to a higher incidence and amputation percentage as well as deaths. Given the fact that laboratory diagnoses trials are both limited and expensive, the most typical alternative is still based on the disease's signs and symptoms. Therefore, the attending physician fills out a questionnaire based on its support instrumental measurements and its own observation (it could be method but not so sure). The aforementioned questionnaire will provide the foundation for the diagnose that also depends on the criteria and the consultant's experience. However, for some variables such as the laceration (injury or wound) and-or-location the previous dependency is not acceptable. This paper aims to become the first link to optimize the diabetic's foot evaluation through the introduction of digital imageprocessing techniques. Because of the use of advanced object segmentation techniques and a parameter that adjusts the system's sensibility until obtaining the desired results it was possible to apply an algorithm to a series of trial images provided positive results for wound and location detection.

Roughly speaking, there are two strategies to provide users with a virtual realistic perceptual experience. One is to make the physical input to the user's sensory systems close to that of the real experience (physics-based approach). The other one, which sensory scientists (like us) prefer, is to make the response pattern of the users' sensory system close to that of the real experience (perception-based approach). Using cognitive/neuro-scientific knowledge about human visual processing, we are able to control cortical perceptual representations in addition to sensor responses, and then achieve perceptual effects that would be hard to obtain with the straightforward physics-based approach. For instance, recent research on human material perception has suggested simple image-based methods to control glossiness, wetness, subthreshold fineness and liquid viscosity. Deformation Lamp/Hengento (Kawabe et al., 2016) is a projection mapping technique that can produce an illusory movement of a real static object. Although only a dynamic gray-scale pattern is projected, it effectively drives visual motion sensors in the human brain, and then induces a “motion capture” effect on the colors and textures of the original static object. In Hidden Stereo (Fukiage et al., 2017), multi-scale phase-based binocular disparity signals effectively drives human stereo mechanisms, while the disparity-inducing image components for the left and right images are cancelled out with each other when they are fused. As a result, viewers with stereo glasses perceive 3D images, while those without glasses can enjoy 2D images with no visible ghosts. I will discuss how vision science helps virtual reality technologies, and how vision science is helped by application to the cutting-edge technologies.

In this paper, we propose a Graph Embedding based Semi-NMF on Reproducing Kernel Hillbert Space(RKHS-SNMF) for human face clustering. This algorithm jointly considers the efficient dimension reduction and effective locally geometric preservation based on the exceptional property of measurability and differentiability of Reproducing Kernel Hillbert Space(RKHS). Extensive experimental results show that our RKHS-SNMF clustering algorithm outperforms the traditional clustering methods and the state-of-the-art NMF based clustering approaches on four benchmark human face databases.

With the continuous development of deep learning in computervision, object detection technology is constantly employed for processing remote sensing images. Especially, ship detection has become a significant and challenging task due to complex environmental factors (strong waves, clouds interference, etc.) and object issues (orientation, scale variety, density, etc.). Current detection methods pay more attention to the detection accuracy while ignoring the detection speed. In contrast with accuracy, detection speed is more important in some cases such as marine rescue and vessel tracking. Aiming at addressing these problems, we propose an enhanced YOLOv4(C-YOLOv4) which contains the feature fusion attention module (FAM) with a channel correlation loss(C-loss). C-loss is proposed to constrain the relations between object classes and channels while maintaining the intra-class and the inter-class separability. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, comprehensive experiments are conducted on a public dataset HRSC2016. According to the experimental results, our proposed approach outperforms the baselines.

Skin color segmentation is important for several imageprocessing, and computervision applications. But, the accuracy of a color-based skin detection method is affected by the presence of some skin-like colors in the background regions. So, probabilistic approaches are more suitable for the skin detection as compared to hard decision-based approaches. A Skin Probability Map (SPM) of an image provides the probability of a pixel belonging to skin region. It is observed that the accuracy of a SPM-based skin detection method also depend on the chosen colorspace for the SPM. In this paper, a novel Weighted Skin Probability Map (WSPM) is proposed for the skin color segmentation. The WSPM is represented as a weighted sum of the SPMs obtained from different color spaces. Experimental results based on standard databases show that replacing the single colorspace-based SPMs with the proposed WSPM can reduce the overall detection errors significantly.

Web-based laboratories are promising to save the cost required to setup a hands-on laboratory in schools. There are several basic experiments in physics which help the students understand the basics of classical physics. However, the rising cost of laboratory infrastructure and costly equipment to conduct these experiments make it difficult for schools, in developing countries like India to build laboratories. This paper presents innovative web-based laboratory for physics to study equations of motion. One such experiment in equations of motion is the determination of acceleration due to gravity of a free falling object. However, measuring the distance traveled and time taken by a free-falling object is a tedious process. To overcome this challenge, a computervision based system is presented which can measure the distance traveled and time taken by the object during free fall. By the technique of object detection in computervision, the free-falling object is detected and tracked. The system is implemented using OpenCV libraries. The result of the analysis of free falling object is provided to the students through the web page.

The Computational Visual Media (CVM) conference series is intended to provide a major international forum for exchanging novel research ideas and significant practical computational methods which either underpin or apply visual media. The primary rationale is to target cross-disciplinary research which amalgamates aspects of computer graphics, computervision, machine learning, imageprocessing, video processing, visualization and geometric computing. The main topics of interest to CVM include classification, composition, retrieval, synthesis, and understanding of visual media.
