First, we select the optimal dual-scale descriptors from a range of feature descriptors. Next, we segment the facade according to the threshold value of the chosen optimal dual-scale descriptors. Finally, we use RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus) to fit the segmented surface and optimize the fitting result. Experimental results show that, compared to commonly used facade segmentation algorithms, the proposed method yields more accurate segmentation results, providing a robust data foundation for subsequent 3D model reconstruction of buildings.展开更多

Although most existing algorithms are able to detect pedestrians well in controlled environ- ments, it is often difficult to achieve accurate pedestrian de- tection from video sequences alone, especially in pedestrian- intensive scenes wherein pedestrians may cause mutual oc- clusion and thus incomplete detection. To surmount these dif- ficulties, this paper presents pedestrian detection algorithm based on video sequences and laser point cloud. First, laser point cloud is interpreted and classified to separate pedes- trian data and vehicle data. Then a fusion of video image data and laser point cloud data is achieved by calibration. The re- gion of interest after fusion is determined using feature in- formation contained in video image and three-dimensional information of laser point cloud to remove false detection of pedestrian and thus to achieve pedestrian detection in inten- sive scenes. Experimental verification and analysis in video sequences demonstrate that fusion of two data improves the performance of pedestrian detection and has better detection results.展开更多

By a detailed semiconductor laser rate equation model,we show here that unidirectional laser emission at an EP is a robust regime. Slight deviations from the EP condition can break preferential unidirectional lasing near threshold via a Hopf instability. However, abovea "second" laser threshold, unidirectional emission is restored.展开更多
