Image partition and video segmentation using the Mumford-Shah functional
(2012-05-30)
The aim of this Thesis is to present an image partition and video segmentation procedure, based on the minimization of a modified version of Mumford-Shah functional.
The Mumford-Shah functional used for image partition has ...
Nanoencapsulation of bioactive compounds for food applications
(2012-06-19)
The increase in dietary-intake-related illnesses, such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes and cancer, have made in recent years the development of health-and-wellness promoting foods a priority of ...
Electromagnetic characterization and modeling of CNT-based composites for industrial applications
(2012-05-22)
In several applications for the aeronautic, automative and electronic industries, there is an increasing demand of structural nanocomposites exhibiting remarkable thermal and mechanical properties and, at the same time, ...
WLAN indoor positioning: a look at the environment
(2012-04-20)
Positioning means to gain awareness, within a certain accuracy, of a mobile device location. It is not a stand alone application, but rather a service that is ground to several applications. Hundreds of research groups ...
Novel models and methods for structured light 3D Scanners
(2012-05-22)
The work made during the PhD course in Information Engineering, was focused on the possibility to find out novel techniques for the quick calibration of a cheap 3D Scanner. It is based on a simple camera and a commercial ...
Transport properties of modified concrete by surface and bulk hydrophobization via nano-clay addition
(2012-06-13)
In recent decades, the concrete for years considered unchangeable and with an unlimited life, with exceptional mechanical properties which have determined principally its success, was in fact subject to phenomena of ...
