Parallel Implementation of a Multi-View Image Segmentation Algorithm Using the Hough Transform

Abstract

We report on the parallel implementation of a multi-view image segmentation algorithm via segmenting the corresponding three-dimensional scene. The algorithm includes the reconstruction of a three-dimensional scene model in the form of a point cloud, and the segmentation of the resulting point cloud in three-dimensional space using the Hough space. The developed parallel algorithm was implemented on graphics processing units using CUDA technology. Experiments were performed to evaluate the speedup and efficiency of the proposed algorithm. The developed parallel program was tested on modelled scenes.

Visible Structures Highlighting Model Analysis Aimed at Object Image Detection Problem

“…The results of morphological processing segmentation are shown in Figure 7. The proposed method of identifying significant structures was compared with other measures that calculate the optimal structure: contrast discrimination, a combined approach to optimization [18]; quantitative indicators of changes based on the organization of functions: eigenvalues and eigenvectors [19] and stochastic areas of completion: a neural model of illusory shape of the contour and significance [20][21][22][23]. Let us consider examples of practical use of these methods in solving the problem of segmentation of important structures in the image.…”

Automated sound generation based on image colour spectrum with using the recurrent neural network

“…Data from each expert has been processed and analyzed (it presented in table 5). Thus, after analyzing the assessments of all experts and calculating the average for each criterion [18], we can conclude that the piano is heard by experts to sound more realistic than the guitar. It can also be concluded that the composition generated by abstract images is more pleasant by ear than generation by landscape.…”
