Video-rate z keying is a new image keying method for merging real and synthetic images in real time. In visual media communication and display, it is often necessary to merge video signals from a real camera and a synthetic video produced by computer graphics. A standard technique for such a purpose is chroma keying which is used, for example, in TV weather reports. Chroma keying, however, simply puts real world objects in the foreground of the synthetic image, and cannot deal with situation where real and synthetic objects occlude each other. The z key method we present merges real and virtual world images in a more flexible way. The z key uses pixel-by-pixel depth information in the form of a depth map as a switch. For each pixel, the z key switch compares the pixel depth values of two images, and routes the color value of the foreground image that is nearer to the camera for the merged output image. The result of this pixel-by-pixel switching is that real and virtual objects can occlude each other correctly depending on their geometrical relationships. The critical capability for realizing such video-rate z keying is video-rate pixel-by-pixel depth mapping of a real scene. We have developed a video-rate stereo machine which can produce 200 x 200 depth images at video rate. With this machine, merging a real scene with a synthetic scene by means of z keying in real-time has been demonstrated; a real person walks around in a synthetic room with correct relationships with virtual objects in the room at the rate of 15 frames/sec. 1

    Construction of Age Model for the Evaluation of Swallowing Function Using Photo Sensors

    No full text
    For the realization of better in-home nursing environment, understanding the swallowing function and its process are quite essential to realize appropriate rehabilitation policies and dietary menus to prevent aspirations. However, the swallowing function is currently examined using mainly large-scale and expensive methods such as video fluoroscopic examination of swallowing, mesophagia fiber, palatal pressure measurement, CT, and cine MRI, which are difficult to be used at patients' homes. This paper proposes an age model, which applies a self organization map (SOM) to evaluate the swallowing function. As parameters to make the SOM, the lead time, the geniohyoid muscle, and the thyrohyid muscle are measured using photo sensors with a little invasiveness. To verify the effectiveness of our swallowing function map, the age of the subject determined by the map is compared with his/her actual age. As a result of the comparison, the root mean square error was 6.28 years. © 2010 IEEE

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
