This paper proposed a novel approach based on computer vision technology to cope with log volume inspection. The needed hardware system was analyzed and the details of the inspection algorithms were given. A fuzzy entropy based on image enhancement algorithm was presented for enhancing the image of the cross-section of log. In many practical applications the cross-section is often partially invisible, and this is the major obstacle for correct inspection. To solve this problem, a robust Hausdorff distance method was proposed to recover the whole cross-section. Experiment results showed that this method was efficient.展开更多

文摘With the development of technology and the progress of life,more and more people,regardless of entertainment,learning,or work,cannot do without computer desks and cannot put down their mobile phones.Due to prolonged sitting and often neglecting the importance of posture,incorrect posture can often lead to health problems such as hunchback,lumbar muscle strain,and shoulder and neck pain over time.To address this issue,we designed a computer vision-based human body posture detection system.The system utilizes YOLOv8 technology to accurately locate key points of the human body skeleton,and then analyzes the coordinate positions and depth information of these key points to establish a criterion for distinguishing different postures.With the assistance of an SVM classifier,the system achieves an average recognition rate of 95%.Finally,we successfully deployed the posture detection system on Raspberry Pi hardware and conducted extensive testing.The test results demonstrate that the system can effectively detect various postures and provide real-time reminders to users to correct poor posture,demonstrating good practicality and stability.
文摘Log volume inspection is very important in forestry research and paper making engineering. This paper proposed a novel approach based on computer vision technology to cope with log volume inspection. The needed hardware system was analyzed and the details of the inspection algorithms were given. A fuzzy entropy based on image enhancement algorithm was presented for enhancing the image of the cross-section of log. In many practical applications the cross-section is often partially invisible, and this is the major obstacle for correct inspection. To solve this problem, a robust Hausdorff distance method was proposed to recover the whole cross-section. Experiment results showed that this method was efficient.
