Influence of Earth's Curvature and Atmospheric Refraction on Leveling01:26

Influence of Earth's Curvature and Atmospheric Refraction on Leveling

During leveling, the Earth's curvature and atmospheric refraction introduce deviations in the line of sight from a true horizontal reference. When the line of sight is leveled, it remains perpendicular to the plumb line only at a single point. Beyond this, it deviates due to the Earth’s curvature, represented by the correction C. For a sight distance D, the deviation can be derived using the relationship:This relationship shows that the deviation increases quadratically with distance. Over a...
Measurements of Strain01:27

Measurements of Strain

Strain quantifies the deformation of a material under force, typically measured as normal strain, which represents the change in length when compared with the original length. Electrical strain gauges are used for enhanced accuracy. These devices consist of a conductive wire mounted on a paper backing that adheres to the material's surface. These gauges operate on the piezoresistive effect, where the wire's electrical resistance changes in response to mechanical deformation. The strain gauge...

Area of Science:

  • Computer Vision
  • Image Processing
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Growing demand for perceptually relevant image quality metrics in multimedia.
  • Limited research on objective assessment of geometric transformation distortions.
  • Existing metrics often fail to capture perceptual quality degradation from geometric changes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an objective, full-reference image quality metric for assessing perceptual quality of geometrically distorted images.
  • To address the gap in research concerning geometric transformation distortions.
  • To develop a method inspired by human visual processing.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing Gabor filters, which mimic visual cortex cell characteristics, to analyze image features.
  • Developing a full-reference metric that considers both the displacement field of distortions and image structure.
  • Focusing on the objective assessment of local geometric distortions.

Main Results:

  • The proposed metric demonstrates good performance in objectively assessing perceptual quality.
  • Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the approach in evaluating geometric distortions.
  • The method successfully integrates distortion information with image structural information.

Conclusions:

  • The novel approach provides a robust method for evaluating the perceptual quality of geometrically distorted images.
  • The use of Gabor filters and consideration of image structure offers an effective way to mimic human perception.
  • This work contributes a valuable tool for multimedia quality assessment.
