The application of Raman and infrared (IR) microspectroscopy is leading to hyperspectral data containing complementary information concerning the molecular composition of a sample. The classification of hyperspectral data from the individual spectroscopic approaches is already state-of-the-art in several fields of research. However, more complex structured samples and difficult measuring conditions might affect the accuracy of classification results negatively and could make a successful classification of the sample components challenging. This contribution presents a comprehensive comparison in supervised pixel classification of hyperspectral microscopic images, proving that a combined approach of Raman and IR microspectroscopy has a high potential to improve classification rates by a meaningful extension of the feature space. It shows that the complementary information in spatially co-registered hyperspectral images of polymer samples can be accessed using different feature extraction methods and, once fused on the feature-level, is in general more accurately classifiable in a pattern recognition task than the corresponding classification results for data derived from the individual spectroscopic approaches.
This contribution presents an easy to implement 3D tracking approach that works with a single standard webcam. We describe the algorithm and show that it is well suited for being used as an intuitive interaction method in 3D video games. The algorithm can detect and distinguish multiple objects in real-time and obtain their orientation and position relative to the camera. The trackable objects are equipped with planar patterns of five visual markers. By tracking (stereo) glasses worn by the user and adjusting the in-game camera's viewing frustum accordingly, the well-known immersive "screen as a window" effect can be achieved, even without the use of any special tracking equipment.
Traffic simulations are generally used to forecast traffic behavior or to simulate non-player characters in computer games and virual environments. These systems are usually modeled in such a way that traffic rules are strictly followed. However, rule violations are a common part of real-life traffic and thus should be integrated into such models.
