In this paper, we present a new surface content completion system that can effectively repair both shape and appearance from scanned, incomplete point set inputs. First, geometric holes can be robustly identified from noisy and defective data sets without the need for any normal or orientation information. The geometry and texture information of the holes can then be determined either automatically from the models' context, or manually from users' selection. After identifying the patch that most resembles each hole region, the geometry and texture information can be completed by warping the candidate region and gluing it onto the hole area. The displacement vector field for the exact alignment process is computed by solving a Poisson equation with boundary conditions. Out experiments show that the unified framework, founded upon the techniques of deformable models and PDE modeling, can provide a robust and elegant solution for content completion of defective, complex point surfaces.

The output values of cellular neural networks would have errors because they can be stabilized at local minimums depending on the initial states of each cell. So, in this paper, we design the $6\times6$cellular neural networks with annealing capability which guarantees that the outputs reaches the global minimum to have correct output values independent of the initial states of each cell. This chip is designed using a $0.8\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology The designed chip contains about 15,000 transistors and the chip size is about $2.89\times2.89\textrm{mm}^2$. The simulation results of edge extraction and hole filling using the designed circuit show that the outputs values would have errors in un-annealed case, but not in annealed case. In the simulation, the annealing time of $3\musec$ is employed.

We propose a novel post-processing algorithm and its very-large-scale integration architecture that simultaneously uses the passive and active stereo vision information to improve the reliability of the three-dimensional disparity in a hybrid stereo vision system. The proposed architecture consists of four steps - left-right consistency checking, semi-2D hole filling, a tiny adaptive variance checking, and a 2D weighted median filter. The experimental results show that the error rate of the proposed algorithm (5.77%) is less than that of a raw disparity (10.12%) for a real-world camera image having a $1,280{\times}720$ resolution and maximum disparity of 256. Moreover, for the famous Middlebury stereo image sets, the proposed algorithm's error rate (8.30%) is also less than that of the raw disparity (13.7%). The proposed architecture is implemented on a single commercial field-programmable gate array using only 13.01% of slice resources, which achieves a rate of 60 fps for $1,280{\times}720$ stereo images with a disparity range of 256.

Image coding based on mixed raster content model generates don't care regions (DCR) in foreground and background layers, and its overall coding performance is greatly affected by region filling methods for DCRs. Most conventional methods for DCR filling fail in utilizing the local signal properties in hole regions and thus the high frequency components in non-DCR regions are reflected into DCR after signal filling. In addition, further high frequency components are induced to the filled signal because of signal discontinuities in the boundary of DCR. To solve this problem, a new DCR filling algorithm using the priority-based adaptive region growing is proposed in this paper. The proposed method uses the watershed algorithm and the flooding priority of each pixel for region filling is determined from the degree of smoothness in the neighborhood area. By growing the filled region into DCR based on the computed priority, the expansion of high-textured area can be minimized which can improve the overall coding performance. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms conventional algorithms.

This paper presents the technique separating objects on the single frame image from the background using region segmentation technique based on active contour. Active contour is to extract contours of objects from the image, which is set to have multi-search starting point to extract each objects contours for multi-object segmentation. Initial rough object segments are generated from binary-coded image using object specific contour information, and then the hole filling is performed to compensate internal segmentation caused by the change of inner object hole area and pixels. This procedure complements the problems caused by the noise from the region segmentation and the errors of segmentation near by the contour. The proposed method and conventional method is compared to verify the superiority of the proposed method.

Generally, a camera isn't located at the center of display in a tele-presence system and it causes an incorrect eye contact between speakers which reduce the realistic feeling during the conversation. To solve this incorrect eye contact problem, we newly propose an intermediate view reconstruction algorithm using both a color camera and a depth camera and applying for the depth image based rendering (DIBR) algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, an efficient hole filling method using the arithmetic mean value of neighbor pixels and an efficient boundary noise removal method by expanding the edge region of depth image are included. We show that the generated eye-contacted image has good quality through experiments.

In this paper, we propose a noise reduction and hole removal algorithm in order to improve the quality of depth images when they are used for creating 3D contents. In the proposed algorithm, the depth image and the corresponding color image are both used. First, an intensity image is generated by converting the RGB color space into the HSI color space. By estimating the difference of distance and depth between reference and neighbor pixels from the depth image and difference of intensity values from the color image, they are used to remove noise in the proposed algorithm. Then, the proposed hole filling method fills the detected holes with the difference of euclidean distance and intensity values between reference and neighbor pixels from the color image. Finally, we apply a parallel structure of GPGPU to the proposed algorithm to speed-up its processing time for real-time applications. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs better than other conventional algorithms. Especially, the proposed algorithm is more effective in reducing edge blurring effect and removing noise and holes.

A sand-cone method is commonly used to determine the density of the compacted soils. This method uses a calibration container to determine the bulk-density of the sand for use in the test. The density of the test or compacted soil is computed on the assumption that the calibration container has approximately the same size or volume and allows the sand to fall approximately the same height as a test hole in the field. However, in most cases the size or shape of test hole is not exactly the same as the calibration container. There is certain discrepancy between sand particle settlement or arrangement in the laboratory calibration and in the field testing, which may cause an erroneous determination of in-situ density. The sand filling process is simulated in the laboratory and its effect on the determination of density is investigated. Artificially-made holes with different heights and bottom shapes are prepared to simulate various shapes of the test hole in the field. The sands with different gradations are used in the testing to examine how sand grain size influences the determination of density in the field.

This study investigated the open hole tensile (OHT) properties of carbon fiber/epoxy composites and compared them to bolt joint tensile (BJT) properties. The net nominal modulus and strength (1376 MPa) were found to be higher than the gross nominal strength (1041 MPa), likely due to increasing hole size. The OHT and BJT specimens exhibited similar stiffness, as expected without bolt rotation causing secondary bending. OHT specimens experienced a sharp drop in stress indicating unstable crack propagation, delamination, and catastrophic failure. BJT specimens failed through shear out on the bolt side and bearing failure on the nut side, involving fiber kinking, matrix splitting, and delamination, resulting in lower strength compared to OHT specimens. The strength retention of carbon fiber/epoxy composites with open holes was 66%. Delamination initiation at the hole's edge caused a reduction in the stress concentration factor. Filling the hole with a bolt suppressed this relieving mechanism, leading to lower strength in BJT specimens compared to OHT specimens. Bolt joint efficiency was calculated as 15%. The reduction in strength in bolted joints was attributed to fiber-matrix splitting and delamination, aligning with Hart Smith's bolted joint efficiency diagram. These findings contribute to materials selection and structural reliability estimation for carbon fiber/epoxy composites. They highlight the behavior of open hole and bolt joint configurations under tensile loading, providing valuable insights for engineering applications.
