Estimating a condition of a physical structure

In a computer-implemented method and system for capturing the condition of a structure, the structure is scanned with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Data collected by the UAV corresponding to points on a surface of a structure is received and a 3D point cloud is generated for the structure, where the 3D point cloud is generated based at least in part on the received UAV data. A 3D model of the surface of the structure is reconstructed using the 3D point cloud.

Cascaded architecture for disparity and motion prediction with block matching and convolutional neural network (CNN)

A CNN operates on the disparity or motion outputs of a block matching hardware module, such as a DMPAC module, to produce refined disparity or motion streams which improve operations in images having ambiguous regions. As the block matching hardware module provides most of the processing, the CNN can be small and thus able to operate in real time, in contrast to CNNs which are performing all of the processing. In one example, the CNN operation is performed only if the block hardware module output confidence level is below a predetermined amount. The CNN can have a number of different configurations and still be sufficiently small to operate in real time on conventional platforms.

Multimodal foreground background segmentation

The subject disclosure is directed towards a framework that is configured to allow different background-foreground segmentation modalities to contribute towards segmentation. In one aspect, pixels are processed based upon RGB background separation, chroma keying, IR background separation, current depth versus background depth and current depth versus threshold background depth modalities. Each modality may contribute as a factor that the framework combines to determine a probability as to whether a pixel is foreground or background. The probabilities are fed into a global segmentation framework to obtain a segmented image.
