Techniques to use stereo vision for improving person identification systems based on face recognition. The broad aim of this project is to use three-dimensional information available by processing images from stereo cameras in order to bridge the gap between constrained face recognition systems and viable systems that work well under varying illumination, changes in pose and variations in spectacles, facial hair and attire. Such a system will be useful in passenger verification at airports and a ....Techniques to use stereo vision for improving person identification systems based on face recognition. The broad aim of this project is to use three-dimensional information available by processing images from stereo cameras in order to bridge the gap between constrained face recognition systems and viable systems that work well under varying illumination, changes in pose and variations in spectacles, facial hair and attire. Such a system will be useful in passenger verification at airports and as a component of personal identification systems to counter terrorism. The key to successful face location and recognition is an effective combination of all data - range, luminance and colour - and techniques for this will be the discovered outcomes.Read moreRead less
Predictive Assessment Tool for Beach Conditions Using Video Imaging and Neural Network Analysis. Beaches are vital part of Australian lifestyle and economic development. Monitoring of variable beach conditions is vital for beach safety and for management of storm erosion. The aim of this project is to develop an assessment tool which will permit a rating system of beach conditions both from an environmental as well as a leisure aspect. This tool will be developed into a software analysis system ....Predictive Assessment Tool for Beach Conditions Using Video Imaging and Neural Network Analysis. Beaches are vital part of Australian lifestyle and economic development. Monitoring of variable beach conditions is vital for beach safety and for management of storm erosion. The aim of this project is to develop an assessment tool which will permit a rating system of beach conditions both from an environmental as well as a leisure aspect. This tool will be developed into a software analysis system which will include components of artificial intelligence to enable the system to use feedback loops to create a better prediction of the beach morphology relative to the breaking wave characteristics.Read moreRead less

Summary
Building change detection and map update using multispectral imagery and height data. This project will produce an effective building change detection procedure and a digital building map. Automatic building detection assists in taking possible precautions during natural disasters, whilst automatic building change detection facilitates an effective and efficient management of affected areas during and after the calamity.
