In this paper, we propose a novel girth measurement system based on multi-view stereo images for garment design. Our system is set in a fixed location to capture three pairs of stereo images for the subject by six calibrated and synchronously triggered cameras. An important feature of this system is the use of an optimized semantic segmentation network that can efficiently segment the girth region in the captured six-view stereo images. Another important feature of this system is the use of color subspace classification and coordinate clustering that can effectively constrain the stereo matching within the scope of markers. Then, the system performs only on the corresponding clusters to extract stereo matching point pairs of markers correctly. The space coordinates of 3D point corresponding to each stereo matching point pair are calculated in each coordinate system of stereo cameras. The unified coordinates of these 3D markers are transformed from three different coordinate systems into one unified coordinate system. Girth is measured by curve fitting of these markers and calculating the length of the fitting curve. Our proposed system performs passive and intelligent girth measurement in garment design, and overcomes the problem of too many invalid stereo matching point pairs in girth measurement. Experimental results demonstrate its accuracy. Our system has a maximum bust measurement error of 1.28cm for woman and 1.31cm for man and a maximum waist measurement error of 1.18cm for woman and 0.99cm for man, which are within the error limit regulated by China national standards GB/

A robust vehicle speed measurement system based on feature information fusion for vehicle multi-characteristic detection is proposed in this paper. A vehicle multi-characteristic dataset is constructed. With this dataset, seven CNN-based modern object detection algorithms are trained for vehicle multi-characteristic detection. The FPN-based YOLOv4 is selected as the best vehicle multi-characteristic detection algorithm, which applies feature information fusion of different scales with both rich high-level semantic information and detailed low-level location information. The YOLOv4 algorithm is improved by combing with the attention mechanism, in which the residual module in YOLOv4 is replaced by the ECA channel attention module with cross channel interaction. An improved ECA-YOLOv4 object detection algorithm based on both feature information fusion and cross channel interaction is proposed, which improves the performance of YOLOv4 for vehicle multi-characteristic detection and reduces the model parameter size and FLOPs as well. A multi-characteristic fused speed measurement system based on license plate, logo, and light is designed accordingly. The system performance is verified by experiments. The experimental results show that the speed measurement error rate of the proposed system meets the requirement of the China national standard GB/T 21555-2007 in which the speed measurement error rate should be less than 6%. The proposed system can efficiently enhance the vehicle speed measurement accuracy and effectively improve the vehicle speed measurement robustness.
