Looking for pictures/line-drawings of common object

Hi,
For an identification task I'm looking for pictures(black-white), preferably
line-drawings of common (such as household) objects: cups, spoons, chairs,
tables, bottles, scissors etc. Possibly someone could tell me, whether such
data exist, and how I can access them. Postscript or bitmap-format preferred,
but any data format is possible.

Any help or pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gabriele Scheler

Subject: MaxVideo200 or ImagingTech 150/40?

I am in the process of specifying VME-based image processing hardware
that is supposed to run with a Sun Sparc10 under Solaris 2.3.
We will use this system mainly as an experimental platform for
vision-based autonomous navigation. In addition to common requirements
(fast convolution, point operations, etc.) we want to have the
possibility to use general-purpose CPUs with floating-point
capabilities and fast access to the image data, e.g., TI 320Cxx or
Intel 860s.

The final contenders are the
  (a) Datacube MaxVideo 200 and 
  (b) Imaging Technology Series 150/40
systems. Each of these manufacturers claims their system to be better 
and faster than the other's.

What I would need is general comments and experiences with both
systems, from a hardware, software, flexibility, performance, price ...
perspective. Most valuable, of course, would be to hear from people
that have used both systems.

Regards,
Wilhelm

From: Bill Denton (AD) <bill@sees.bangor.ac.uk>
Subject: Nonuniform illumination compenstation using homomorphic filtering

I want to remove the effects of non-uniform illumination in an image. According 
to Pratt:91 and Gonzalez:92 homomorphic filtering is a method of doing this. Are
there any other methods of doing this?

Homomorphic filtering:

image -> ln -> fft -> filter -> ifft -> exp -> output

I can't realisticlly preform an fft and ifft on the image because of the amount 
of storage required and (probably) time. So I want a spatial approximation of
the filter which I can convolve with the image. i.e.

image -> ln -> convolve -> exp -> output

I intend to use a high-pass butterworth filter, which I can generate in the
frequency domain. Then generate an approximation of this in the spatial domain
(details Gonzalez p218). I tried doing in Matlab, but it during a matrix
inversion I got an ill-conditioned result and the resulting filter was
rubbish. Is there any easier way of generating an approximation 
of a high-pass filter in the spatial domain?
Does any one have C code for this? I would like to be able to specific a
cut off frequency so I can fine-tune the effect on the image.

Thanks
Bill.

Subject: Help ON Image Sequence Analysis

Hi !
	I have a number of image sequences (about 256 sequential images)
in which only a few pixels in the image undergo a change in intensity
(not position). The Image is generally of 64 x 64 matrix size. I am
interested in identifying those pixels that undergo change in intensity.
Any ideas, papers, references or programs would be extremly helpful.

	Also any ideas on coding these image sequences.

	Mailing it directly to me would be wonderful.
Thanks in advance.

Subject: Lens for 3D mouse system

Hello all,

Here at the Computer Vision Lab we are developing a camera for use as
a position tracker for a 3D mouse (and later for head tracking) [1].
Several infrared LEDs are attached to the mouse; the camera picks up the
bright spots in the image and sends their centroids to the computer
using the serial port 60 times per second (field rate). Then the
computer uses these centroids to get the pose of the mouse. The
principles are not new, I know; our contribution is mainly in the fast
methods to compute the pose from the centroids, and some hardware
tricks to do things in real time.

Our present prototype is built around a small board-level Chinon camera
[2], and analyzes the NTSC signal to get the centroids using
programmable logic and an 8051 microcontroller (which also takes care of
the serial output). But NTSC limits the pose rate to 60 per second, and
we don't care much about the interlace feature either :-)

In the new prototype we are designing, we are trying to compute 100 to
200 poses per second, by driving a new Texas Instruments CCD chip
directly with programmable logic, and analyzing the signal out of the
chip without going through NTSC at all. 

This type of camera sending elementary image processing results to an
RS232 port is also useful for a small robot trying to find beacons or
just trying to go straight.

The problem we are having now is simply buying a lens assembly. What I
call lens assembly is a small box (20 mm x 20 mm) that is screwed on the
printed board with a couple of screws and encloses the CCD chip. A
threaded barrel is mounted on that box like a miniature C-mount lens to
position the lens above the sensitive surface of the CCD and to allow
adjusting of the focal length. So lens assembly = lens + barrel + box +
screws.

TI sells its CCD chips without a lens assembly, and we couldn't get any
help from them. Other companies such as Sanyo sell their chips with a
lens for mounting on a PCB, ($40, $14 in quantity) but of
course they don't sell the lens by itself. For the next prototype we are
going to buy a Sanyo CCDs + lens combination, and use the lens with the
TI chip (the Sanyo chip seems a  bit harder to drive), but we would hate
to do that for each of the systems we want to build. There is some hint
in the Sanyo literature that the manufacturer of the lens is Minolta, but
we haven't found a distributor for Minolta. 

Do you know any manufacturer or distributor of small lens assemblies
similar to the ones used on board-level cameras? 

Many thanks for any suggestions.

hello:

earlier i had posted a query seeking information regarding the 
availability of source code(s) / method(s) to plot the optical flow. i 
have obtained a couple of responses, which i think will be of use to many 
others who read this posting regularly ( i have received mails requesting me 
to share the responses i receive for my query).

here we go:

(I) Gopa Ganguly :: gopa@ee.eng.ohio-state.edu

There is software available at the ftp-site ftp.csd.uwo.ca. It is
under pub/vision/SOFTWARE. The file is psflow.c.Z. It needs the flow
vectors to be stored in a certain format -- you can check any of the
codes (eg: pub/vision/LUCAS/lucas.c) to get the format.

(II) Torsten Ihle <ihle@cs.wisc.edu>

Quick and probably dirty : use gnuplot, command:
set arrow x_n,y_n to x_end,y_end
(you can write awk or whatever program  to create these commands)

thank you Gopa Ganguly, thank you  Torsten Ihle.

i will keep you posted if i hear more in this regard :-)

JOB OPPORTUNITY     *
*********************

Agricultural Engineer

Factor 1. Research Assignment

        Incumbent participates as a responsible team member of the Water
        Management Research Unit located in Fort Collins, Colorado.
        Research emphasis is to integrate applied and basic principles
        to develop improved water, chemical and alternative weed
        management systems and irrigation system designs. Improvements
        are directed towards sustainable, environmentally sound and
        efficient systems based on soil, water, fertility, energy, and
        weed ecology principles. This encompasses understanding physical
        and biological phenomena and developing computer simulation
        models and expert systems to transfer new technologies to
        producers, consultants, action agencies, industry and
        scientists.

        A)      Assigned Responsibility:

        Incumbent is responsible for conducting research in obtaining
        digital images and using microcomputer digital image analysis to
        identify weed seeds and weed seedlings.

        B)      Research Objectives and Methodology:

                The objectives of the incumbents research are to:
                1.  Develop an automatic process to identify and 
                    count intact weed seeds, by species, extracted from 
                    soil samples.
                2.  Identify weed seedlings, by species, in agronomic 
                    crops based on morphological characteristics and 
                    multispectral properties when present in pure and mixed 
                    populations with different soil backgrounds.
                3.  Develop procedures to incorporate the above in GIS
                    analysis of water and weed management systems.
                Research approach requires use of digital cameras, 
                microscopes and image analysis software for studies 
                conducted in the laboratory, greenhouse and field.

        C)   Expected Results:
                Research conducted by the incumbent will result in a series of
                publications and digital image databases which define the
                conditions and procedures for successful digital image
                analysis of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weed seeds and
                seedlings. Information will lead to development and
                implementation of routine digital image identifuation of weed
                seeds and seedlings for classification by species.

        D)   Knowledge Required:
                The research assignment requires knowledge of agricultural
                engineering, computer digital image analysis, remote sensing,

The processing of digital image and video data is quickly emerging from 
the research laboratory to have a profound and lasting effect on the way 
visual data is stored, transmitted and displayed. In the near future, 
digital imagery will be the norm rather then the exception in everyday 
life. This format provides great power and flexibility in the ways in which 
a person can deal and interact with visual information. In order to tap 
into the full benefits of such a format there is still a great need for 
the development of techniques, algorithms hardware and software for the 
manipulation, restoration and understanding of image and video data.
Papers which deal with these issues and which provide new and interesting 
techniques to address these problems are solicited.

The intention of this conference is to introduce advances in the 
processing of digital image and video data. New ideas, algorithms, models,
hardware and software for the processing of such data sets will be 
discussed.

Papers are invited in the following and related areas:
  * image/video restoration, reconstruction and enhancement
  * color image/video processing, representation and transformations
  * adaptive methods for image/video processing
  * image/video filtering

	   SIEBENS EDUCATION CENTER
	       MAYO FOUNDATION
		ROCHESTER, MN



		   PURPOSE

The goal of the third conference on Visualization in Biomedical
Computing 1994 (VBC '94) continues the tradition established in the
first (Atlanta, 1990) and second (Chapel Hill, 1992) conferences to
enhance and promote the science of computing and visualization in
medicine and biology.  This objective is achieved by bringing together a
multidisciplinary, international group of researchers, scientists,
engineers, clinicians and toolmakers engaged in all aspects of
scientific visualization in biomedical computing.

		    THEME

Visualization in biological and medical research has rapidly emerged as
a unique and significant discipline aimed at developing approaches and
tools to allow researchers to "see into" and comprehend the living
systems they are studying.  Topics of investigation and development in
the discipline span from basic theory through tools and systems to
complete applications.  This conference will synthesize these topics
into synergistic presentations ranging from principles to practice.
Approaches to biomedical visualization include generation of realistic
displays for presentation of information in three or more dimensions,
development of interactive and automated methods for manipulation of
multidimensional data, implementation of measeurment tools for
quantitative evaluation and assessment of image data, and
design/validation of models and paradigms that enhance interpretive and
decision-making processes.  Biomedical visualization uses graphics
hardware and software tools and systems to display and analyze image
related information, as well as environments that facilitate
human-machine-data interaction for the exploration and understanding of
complex biological systems.

		   AUDIENCE

There will be single track sessions of half-hour papers. The
presentations by and discussions among participants should interest
basic scientists, engineers, medical researchers, physicians, surgeons,
psychologists, and biomedical visualization students.

	      TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4
7:00 AM
Registration and Continental Breakfast for Tutorial
Registrants
Registration will take place in the Kahler Plaza on
the second floor outside the Kahler Plaza Ballroom.

8:00 AM
Tutorials
All tutorials will take place on Tuesday, October 4.
Morning tutorials will take place from 8:00 AM through
12:00 PM, and afternoon tutorials from 1:00 PM through
5:00 PM, each with a 15 minute break.  Each tutorial
consists of a four-hour intensive course on various
topics of importance in visualization science,
conducted by recognized experts and leading researchers.
The following tutorial courses will be offered.

8:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Tutorial A
Multiscale Geometric Image Analysis - Diffusion and
Cores

Description:  There are two basic principles associated with multiscale
geometry:  1) geometry involves analysis that is invariant to certain
spatial transformations, including translation, rotation, and zoom, and
2) the dimension of scale is as critical as the dimensions giving
spatial position, corresponding intuitively to level of detail in image
space.  Considered together, image space and scale is called scale
space.  Three families of methods based on these principles are
achieving impressive results in image analysis particularly in their
insensitivity to irrelevant detail (including image noise) and intensity
blurring, and in their ability to produce stable object descriptions and
pixel classifications into objects.  The three families are multiscale
medial axis or core-based analysis (CBA), variable conductance diffusion
(VCD), and multiscale geometric statistical pattern recognition (MGSPR).
This pair of tutorials (morning and afternoon) will cover the basic
mathematics of multiscale geometry as well as all three of these
families of methods.  It will include algorithms for computation and
also illustrative results of the applications of the methods to both 2D
and 3D medical images of various modalities.  The morning tutorial will
cover the mathematics of diffusion and scale space and the definition,
effect on scale space geometry, and application of cores.  The morning
tutorial contains material helpful for the full afternoon tutorial, but
is self-contained.  The afternoon tutorial will cover the mathematics,
algorithms, and applications of variable conductance diffusion,
including approaches involving MGSPR, and it will cover algorithms for
segmenting objects both via VCD and via CBA.  Attendees who wish to take
the afternoon tutorial without taking the morning tutorial may choose to
take a brief primer available before the afternoon tutorial.  These
tutorials are targeted for image analysts and students with at least an
introductory course in image processing and math, including calculus and
linear algebra.

Instructors:  Stephen M. Pizer, David Eberly, Ross T.  Whitaker, Daniel
S. Fritsch, Bryan S. Morse, Terry S.  Yoo, James M. Coggins, University
of North Carolina, Chapel Hill

Tutorial B
3D Imaging in Biomedical Computing:  Principles,
Algorithms and Systems

Description:  Based on the nature of the processing tools required to
fulfill biomedical imaging objectives, three components may be
identified in a complete image analysis system:  visualization,
manipulation, and analysis.  Visualization refers to processes which
enable us to see and comprehend structure information captured in the
image data in its true form and shape so as to help understand the
underlying physical phenomenon.  Manipulation refers to processes which
allow us to interactively alter structure information with a view to
understanding how the functionality of the physical phenomenon may be
modified.  Analysis refers to processes which generate quantitative
descriptions of the structures with a view to quantify the functionality
of the phenomenon being studied.  The phrase 3D imaging may be used to
collectively denote these processes.  This tutorial will cover
systematically the fundamental principles underlying 3D imaging, namely
multidimensional, multimodal image data visualization, manipulation, and
analysis.  The tutorial will include on-line demonstrations of the
imaging operations on a workstation.

Instructor:  Jayram Udupa, University of Pennsylvania

Tutorial C
Modern 3-D Microscopy and Visualization

Description:  The essence of scientific visualization is captured in
microscopy.  Microscopy systems are proven valuable tool for biomedical
research.  Most of our present knowledge of structural organization in
living organisms from the cellular to the molecular level is imprinted
by microscopical findings.  This tutorial will provide an introduction
into modern forms of 3-D microscopy (e.g., confocal, NMR, X-ray), and
will cover image quality considerations, microscopy setup, and
computational considerations.  Deconvolution techniques, image
preprocessing, segmentation methods and various forms of 3-D rendering
will be reviewed.  The effects of specimen preparation and image
contrast on visualization will be discussed.  The use of stereo- imaging
and virtual reality applications in modern 3-D microscopy will be
presented.

Instructors:  Andres Kriete, University of Giessen, FRG
and Ping-chin Cheng, State University of New York at Buffalo


1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Tutorial D
Multiscale Geometric Image Analysis - Variable
Conductance Diffusion and Object Calculation
See Session A for description

Tutorial E
Volume Visualization

Description:  Volume visualization encompasses an array of techniques
which provide the mechanisms that make it possible to reveal and explore
the inner or unseen structures of volumetric data and allow visual
insight into opaque or complex datasets.  Volume visualization is
concerned with the tasks of representing, manipulating, and rendering
volumetric data.  This tutorial provides an overview of the technology,
the nomenclature, and the techniques for these tasks, emphasizing
algorithms and applications.  The tutorial covers and compares different
approaches in volume representation, volume synthesis, volume and
surface viewing, volume shading, and biomedical applications of volume
visualization.  The tutorial is designed at a beginning/intermediate
level for biomedical scientists and engineers, and for medical
researchers and practitioners who are new to the field of volume
visualization or interested in expanding their knowledge in that field.
Copies of lecture notes, slides and additional printed material will be
provided.

Instructors:  Arie Kaufman, Roni Yagel, State University
of New York at Stony Brook; Karl-Heinz Hoehne and
Andreas Pommert, University Hospital, Hamburg,
Germany

Tutorial F
Visualization in the Neurosurgical OR

Description:  This tutorial focuses on the application of new
visualization techniques to the practical problems confronting the
neurosurgeon.  In particular, the challenging issues associated with
pre-surgical planning and with intra-operative navigation will be
presented in a tutorial format.  The course will begin with a discussion
of algorithms and hardware for intra- operative registration.
Traditional frame-based stereotactic techniques will be introduced, then
several classes of non-invasive registration techniques, including
fiducial based algorithms, surface and contour matching algorithms and
video mixing approaches will be described and compared.  The
"surgeon-computer interface" will be discussed, including issues
associated with time constraints, sterility problems, electrical safety,
and software validation.  Videotaped surgical procedures demonstrating
these concepts will be shown.  The tutorial will conclude with a review
of various technologies for intra-operative registration and navigation.
Mechanical, visible and infra-red camera systems, and ultra-sonic
techniques will be compared.  Attendees will have the opportunity to
gain hands-on experience with several intra-operative wands and with a
prototype heads-up-display guidance system.  The tutorial is designed
for biomedical scientists, engineers and medical researchers who wish to
apply visualization results to surgery and other interventional
procedures.
