Fast inpainting algorithm for real-time video inpainting problem
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
The paper examines a simple and efficient method to solve the digital inpainting problem with a reasonable result by processing the information locally around the painting area. The method is based on a unique matrix transformation algorithm. It can...
A system for access and administration of fault-tolerant web services
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Web Services, a recent development in web technology, enables programs (services) on the World Wide Web (WWW) to communicate with each other. A program (web service) available on the WWW has to be robust to serve the vast ...
Confocal microscopy imaging analysis of plant morphodynamics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Pollen tubes are delivery mechanisms in a plant's reproductive cycle. Morphodynamic analysis of these microscopic structures provide biologists with insight into the inner workings of these structures. This thesis presents ...
Machine learning methods for 3D object classification and segmentation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Object understanding is a fundamental problem in computer vision and it has been extensively researched in recent years thanks to the availability of powerful GPUs and labelled data, especially in the context of images. ...
Permutation compression with applications to genomic data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
science, traditional compression techniques which are used widely for compressing integers are developed around the frequency of symbols in the dataset. However, in permutation where each integer appears exactly once, the existing algorithms developed so...
Sketch-based navigation for mobile robots using qualitative landmark states
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
In this work, a system for navigating a mobile robot along a sketched route is proposed. The sketch is drawn on a PDA screen by a human operator and contains approximate landmarks and a path, similar to a sketch provided ...
Adaptive bilateral extensor for image interpolation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
A novel algorithm for image interpolation, referred to as adaptive bilateral extensor interpolation, is proposed in this thesis. It combines useful features of an extensor based algorithm, utilizing a non-linear mapping ...
Three dimensional reconstruction of plant roots via low energy x-ray computed tomography
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
the number of false positives around root segments....
Selected techniques for vehicle tracking and assessment in wide area motion imagery
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Tracking of vehicles in wide area motion imagery (WAMI) is very important for civilian and military surveillance. Tracking in a dataset that is characterized by very large format video with an extremely wide field-of-view ...
Relative depth estimation from single monocular images with deep convolutional network
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
Depth estimation from single monocular images is a theoretical challenge in computer vision as well as a computational challenge in practice. This thesis addresses the problem of depth estimation from single monocular ...
Applications of deep neural networks to protein structure prediction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Protein secondary structure, backbone torsion angle and other secondary structure features can provide useful information for protein 3D structure prediction and protein functions. Deep learning offers a new opportunity ...
Heuristics for searching chemical structures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Chemical and biochemical structure databases are useful for retrieving information to a wide range of users, ranging from a high school student to a medical research scientist. These databases provide the user with various ...
New consensus-based algorithms for quality assessment in protein structure prediction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Two of the essential tasks in protein tertiary structure prediction are predicting quality and selecting the best quality model from given model structures. Finding solutions to these problems are fundamental to understanding ...
PIR sensing array for fall detection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
The purpose of the Fuzzy PIR Fall Detection Array is to keep the elderly safe by providing a means for an immediate response to falls while still allowing them to enjoy the same independence they felt before fall detection ...
Virtual web for PageRank computing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The enormous size and fast-evolving nature of World-Wide-Web has been demanding an even more efficient PageRank updating algorithm. Web evolution may involve two kinds: (1) link structure modification; (2) page insertion/deletion. ...
Data-driven 3D shape modeling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
3D shape modeling is essential for computer to understand our real world. So far, 3D shaping modeling is still an open issue. There are too much raw data around, but there is no uniform or standard way to translate them for computers. My work...
3D city scale reconstruction using wide area motion imagery
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
3D reconstruction is one of the most challenging but also most necessary part of computer vision. It is generally applied everywhere, from remote sensing to medical imaging and multimedia. Wide Area Motion Imagery is a ...
Real-time visualization of massive imagery and volumetric datasets
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The visualization of extremely large multi-dimensional datasets requires highly scalable geometric algorithms. We consider an algorithm to be scalable if its complexity remains constant independent of the size of the ...
Clinical content tracking system: an efficient request tracking via a graphical user interface
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
We propose a new system called Clinical Content Tracking System (CCTS) that is a pre-component of a Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) system. CCTS is a tool that helps physicians build clinical contents, in an ...
