A new image-based real-time flame detection method using color analysis

[[abstract]]A new image-based real-time flame detection method is proposed in this paper. First, fire flame features based on the HSI color model are extracted by analyzing 70 flame images. Then, based on these flame features, regions with fire-like colors are roughly separated from an image. Besides segmenting fire flame regions, background objects with similar fire colors or caused by color shift resulted from the reflection of fire flames are also separated from the image. In order to get rid of these spurious fire-like regions, the image difference method and the invented color masking technique are applied. Finally, a simple method is devised to estimate the burning degree of fire flames so that users could be informed with a proper warning alarm. The proposed method is tested with seven diverse fire flame video clips on a Pentium II 350 processor with 128 MB RAM at the process speed of thirty frames per second. The experimental results are quite encouraging. The proposed method can achieve more than 96.97% detection rate on average. In addition, the system can correctly recognize fire flames within one second on the initial combustion from the test video clips, which seems very promising.[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20050319~20050322[[booktype]]紙本[[conferencelocation]]Tucson, AZ, US

Driver fatigue detection based on eye tracking and dynamic template matching

[[abstract]]A vision-based real-time driver fatigue detection system is proposed for driving safely. The driver's face is located, from color images captured in a car, by using the characteristic of skin colors. Then, edge detection is used to locate the regions of eyes. In addition to being used as the dynamic templates for eye tracking in the next frame, the obtained eyes' images are also used for fatigue detection in order to generate some warning alarms for driving safety. The system is tested on a Pentium III 550 CPU with 128 MB RAM. The experiment results seem quite encouraging and promising. The system can reach 20 frames per second for eye tracking, and the average correct rate for eye location and tracking can achieve 99.1% on four test videos. The correct rate for fatigue detection is l00%, but the average precision rate is 88.9% on the test videos.[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20040321~20040323[[conferencelocation]]臺北市, 臺

建構個人化中文全真字型

[[abstract]]目前的電腦字型多為統一固定的字型，缺乏個人書寫風格的特性。在本論文中，我們提出一個自動將個人書寫的中文字，透過影像處理技術，將之轉換成全真字型（TrueType font）的方法，使得電腦螢幕顯示或印表機列印時，仍可呈現個人書寫的風格。[[conferencetype]]兩岸[[conferencedate]]20140822~20140824[[booktype]]電子版[[iscallforpapers]]Y[[conferencelocation]]北

Efficiently locating vehicle license plates based on vertical line detection

[[abstract]]A fast method for locating vehicle license plates is proposed in this paper. This approach is primarily based on the observations that the intensity contrast between license plate background color and symbol color is high and that symbol edges are clustered in the plate area. A simple edge detection method based on first derivatives is applied to a car image such that the binary image containing only vertical edges is obtained. Then possible plate regions could be located from the horizontal and vertical projections of the binary image. No preprocessing, such as image enhancement and noise filtering, is required. In addition to its simplicity and fastness, the proposed method is less sensitive to illumination changes of the plate. The proposed method was experimented with 117 diverse car images on a Pentium-133 processor. The system successfully located 116 license plates in 0.2 second on an average.[[notice]]補正完畢[[conferencetype]]國內[[conferencedate]]19990822~19990824[[conferencelocation]]臺北縣, 臺

软光刻法制备具有表面微结构的角蛋白膜

近年来,使用微纳米制造工艺将蛋白质或多肽进行高精度空间图案化,推动了细胞生物学、组织工程学、药物科学等领域的发展.同时,羊毛角蛋白作为一种储量大的天然生物蛋白质,具有优异的水溶性、良好的生物相容性和可控的降解性,但羊毛角蛋白通常不能自组装形成凝胶网络或其他不溶形式,因此,使用羊毛角蛋白制备如纤维、薄膜、凝胶等的成型结构存在很大困难.本工作通过使用化学修饰的方法,在角蛋白上接枝功能基团,使角蛋白获得光敏感性,探究了共价交联法制备具有表面微结构角蛋白膜的可行性.并用3D激光扫描显微镜、紫外可见近红外光谱仪和傅里叶变换显微红外光谱仪对薄膜结构进行了表征.结果表明,使用软光刻法可以得到表面微结构完整度很高的角蛋白膜.本工作对羊毛角蛋白共价交联法进行了实验探索,实验结果不仅为人们提供了一种软光刻技术制备具有表面微结构的角蛋白膜的方法,而且为羊毛角蛋白制备成型结构提供了新的途径.国家自然科学基金(Nos.21771150,21401154,U1405226)111计划(No.B16029)广东省自然科学基金(No.2014A030310005)中央高校基本业务费(No.20720170011)资助~

为了明确抗SARS-CoVN蛋白单克隆抗体的特异性,并鉴定其识别表位,首先在E.coli中表达了人类冠状病毒229E(HCoV-229E)和OC43(HCoV-OC4)N蛋白,用Westernblotting和间接免疫荧光方法分别检测了4株抗SARS-CoVN蛋白单克隆抗体(1-1C2、1-1D6、2-8F11和2-2E5)与HCoV-OC43和HCoV-229E及其N蛋白的交叉反应情况,而后应用12种重组截短型SARS-CoVN蛋白对上述4种单克隆抗体的识别表位进行了初步定位。结果显示:(1)在4株抗N蛋白单克隆抗体中,1-1C2、1-1D6和2-2E5不与HCoV-OC43和HCoV-229E及其N蛋白发生交叉反应,为SARS-CoVN蛋白特异性抗体;(2)2-8F11、1-1D6和2-2E5针对的抗原表位位于SARS-CoVN蛋白的aa30-60,1-1C2针对的抗原表位则位于SARS-CoVN蛋白的aa170-184。这一研究为阐明SARS-CoVN蛋白的免疫学特征,建立特异性免疫诊断技术和研究其致病机制提供了必要的依据和材料

NMR studies on interactions between diperoxovanadate complexes and 1-methylimidazole

To understand the effects of organic ligands of the diperoxovanadate complexes on the reaction equilibrium, the interactions between a series of diperoxovanadate complexes [OV(O-2)(2)LL '](n-) [n=1 similar to 3; LL '=oxalate, abbr. oxa; picolinate, abbr. pic; 2,2 '-bipyridine, abbr. bipy; and 1,10-phenanthroline, abbr. phen. The corresponding peroxovanadate species abbreviate bpV(oxa), bpV(pic), bpV(bipy), and bpV(phen)] and I-methylimidazole (abbr. N-Me-Im) in solution were explored using multinuclear (H-1, C-13, and V-51) magnetic resonance, COSY, and variable temperature NMR in 0.15 mol/L NaCl ionic medium for mimicking the physiological conditions. The experimental results indicated the activity order of these four complexes with I-methylimidazole as follows: bpV(oxa)> bpV(pic)> bpV(bipy)> bpV(phen). Both the coordinating capability and the steric effect of the organic ligands affect the reaction equilibrium. At the same time, a new six-coordinated peroxovanadate species [OV(O-2)(2)(N-Me-Im)](-) is formed due to the competitive coordination

However, Brownian motions suppress the molecular trapping. To date, free-molecule trapping in solution has not been accomplished. Here, we develop a strategy to directly trap, investigate, and release single molecules (∼2 nm) in solution by using an adjustable plasmonic optical nanogap, which has been further applied for selective single-molecule trapping. Comprehensive experiments and theoretical simulations demonstrated that the trapping force originated from plasmonic nanomaterials. This technique opens an avenue to manipulate single molecules and other objects in the size range of primary interest for physics, chemistry, and life and material sciences without the limitations of strong bonding group, ultra-high vacuum, and ultra-low temperature, and makes possible controllable single-molecule manipulation and investigation as well as bottom-up construction of nanodevices and molecular machines.This work is financially supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (21533006, 21621091, 21673195, 21973079, and 21722305), and the National Key R&D Program (2017YFA0204902, 2015CB932300). 该工作得到国家自然科学基金、国家重点研发计划课题的资助，以及固体表面物理化学国家重点实验室、能源材料化学协同创新中心的支持
