  3. Article ; Online: Sparse Optical Flow Implementation Using a Neural Network for Low-Resolution Thermal Aerial Imaging.

    Abstract This study is inspired by the widely used algorithm for real-time optical flow, the sparse Lucas-Kanade, by applying a feature extractor to decrease the computational requirement of optical flow based neural networks from real-world thermal aerial imagery. Although deep-learning-based algorithms have achieved state-of-the-art accuracy and have outperformed most traditional techniques, most of them cannot be implemented on a small multi-rotor UAV due to size and weight constraints on the platform. This challenge comes from the high computational cost of these techniques, with implementations requiring an integrated graphics processing unit with a powerful on-board computer to run in real time, resulting in a larger payload and consequently shorter flight time. For navigation applications that only require a 2D optical flow vector, a dense flow field computed from a deep learning neural network contains redundant information. A feature extractor based on the Shi-Tomasi technique was used to extract only appropriate features from thermal images to compute optical flow. The state-of-the-art RAFT-s model was trained with a full image and with our proposed alternative input, showing a substantial increase in speed while maintain its accuracy in the presence of high thermal contrast where features could be detected.

    Abstract It is necessary to establish the relative performance of established optical flow approaches in airborne scenarios with thermal cameras. This study investigated the performance of a dense optical flow algorithm on 14 bit radiometric images of the ground. While sparse techniques that rely on feature matching techniques perform very well with airborne thermal data in high-contrast thermal conditions, these techniques suffer in low-contrast scenes, where there are fewer detectable and distinct features in the image. On the other hand, some dense optical flow algorithms are highly amenable to parallel processing approaches compared to those that rely on tracking and feature detection. A Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) micro-sensor and a PX4Flow optical sensor were mounted looking downwards on a drone. We compared the optical flow signals of a representative dense optical flow technique, the Image Interpolation Algorithm (I2A), to the Lucas-Kanade (LK) algorithm in OpenCV and the visible light optical flow results from the PX4Flow in both X and Y displacements. The I2A to LK was found to be generally comparable in performance and better in cold-soaked environments while suffering from the aperture problem in some scenes.

    Abstract This study was conducted to describe the knowledge and practices on dental caries prevention among parents of preschool children in Vietnam and identify associated factors. A cross-sectional study was conducted in three preschools in Northern Vietnam in 2020. A total of 316 parents of preschool children were randomly recruited. Knowledge and practices regarding early dental caries prevention were asked by using a structured questionnaire. Multivariate Tobit regression was used to examine factors associated with knowledge and practice scores. Results showed four aspects of knowledge that had the lowest proportion of parents having correct responses included timing of complete primary tooth replacement (12.3%), benefits of undergoing regular dental examination (31.7%), technique for brushing a child's teeth (33.9%), and duration for brushing (36.7%). The knowledge of parents was moderately low at 6.3/12 (SD = 2.3). The practices of parents were moderately good with the mean practice score at 6.1/9 (SD = 2.0). The proportion of parents taking children for regular checkups (56.2%) and replacing toothbrush every 3 months (53.7%) were the lowest. Information source, occupation, education and perceived necessity of oral care were found to be associated with parents' knowledge and practices. To conclude, parents had moderate levels of knowledge and practices regarding early dental caries prevention in preschool children. Further studies and interventions should be performed to improve parental knowledge and practices that could enhance the oral health of children.

    Abstract In light field compression, graph-based coding is powerful to exploit signal redundancy along irregular shapes and obtains good energy compaction. However, apart from high time complexity to process high dimensional graphs, their graph construction method is highly sensitive to the accuracy of disparity information between viewpoints. In real-world light field or synthetic light field generated by computer software, the use of disparity information for super-rays projection might suffer from inaccuracy due to vignetting effect and large disparity between views in the two types of light fields, respectively. This paper introduces two novel projection schemes resulting in less error in disparity information, in which one projection scheme can also significantly reduce computation time for both encoder and decoder. Experimental results show projection quality of super-pixels across views can be considerably enhanced using the proposals, along with rate-distortion performance when compared against original projection scheme and HEVC-based or JPEG Pleno-based coding approaches.
