Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Depth Camera Calibration Using 4 Spheres on Tetrahedron Corners(IEEE, 2022) Tunçer, Esra; Gümüştekin, ŞevketIn this study, a system including 4 depth cameras (Kinect v1) was constructed for 3-dimensional reconstruction of an object. As with all cameras, the calibration parameters of the cameras used must be known in order to transform from image coordinates to world coordinates in depth cameras. Contrary to the studies that use flat calibration objects such as checkerboard and infrared images, which are frequently encountered in the literature, in this study, only depth images of the cameras were used to find intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of a depth camera. For the calibration process, a new tetrahedron calibration object with 4 equiradius spheres was designed, the sphere centers were determined in the world and image coordinates, and the projection matrix method was applied. The minimum number of matching points required by the original projection matrix method was reduced from 6 to 4 with the help of depth information. A new calibration object and method was developed to provide successful 3-dimensional reconstruction results of 4 depth cameras with the use of only 4 matching points and can be used in all types of depth cameras.Conference Object Detection of Urban Change Using Remote Sensing and Gis: Izmir Case(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2008) Tarhan, Çiğdem; Arkon, Cemal; Çelik, M.; Gümüştekin, Şevket; Tecim, V.This study is an example of how land use changes could be detected via high resolution remotely sensed data. In order to perform "change detection" IKONOS satellite images, belonging to 2001 and 2004, have been used. An automated Graphical User Interface (GUI) has been created for detection of environment. Different image enhancement techniques and a fuzzy inference system have been combined in the GUI. The detection results are classified according to some basic levels such as 20-50% and 70%. Additionally, four different change detection algorithms have been applied which are pixel-based, object based, feature based. These algorithms have been examined according to change detection levels with different image enhancement techniques. At the end of the study, the results have been compared.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Reconstruction of Geometrical and Reflection Properties of Surfaces by Using Structured Light Imaging Technique(Türkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018) Ozan, Şükrü; Gümüştekin, ŞevketWhen a robust and dense surface reconstruction is aimed, structured light imaging techniques are usually much appreciated. In this paper we propose a method to reconstruct both geometrical and reflective properties of surfaces by using structured light imaging. We use a technique where a camera and a projector are both treated as viewing devices. They are calibrated in the same manner. Each visible point can be correctly located on both image planes without solving a correspondence problem; hence, a dense reconstruction can be obtained. Since both the camera and the projector are explicitly calibrated, lighting and viewing directions can be identified for each surface point. It is also possible to measure reflected radiance by using high dynamic range (HDR) images for each surface point. The lighting and viewing directions that are known after calibration are combined with the reflected radiance and the incoming irradiance measurements to determine the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) values of the material at the reconstructed surface points. We illustrate the reconstruction of surface reflection properties of sample surfaces by fitting the Phong BRDF model to the BRDF measurements.Conference Object Matching Aerial Coastline Images With Map Data Using Dynamic Programming(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2006) Kahraman, Metin; Gümüştekin, ŞevketMatching aerial images with map data is an important task in several remote sensing applications such as autonomous navigation, cartography, oceanography. The unique and distinctive shapes of coastlines can be effectively utilized to solve this problem. In this study a completely automatic scheme is proposed to detect coastlines using multiresolution texture analysis and to match the detected coastlines to a map database. A shape matching method using dynamic programming is used and tested on the satellite images of the western coast of Turkey.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Texture Analysis of Polymer Modified Bitumen Images(Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH & Co. KG, 2011) Gümüştekin, Şevket; Topal, Ali; Şengöz, BurakThis study aims to analyze the textural features extracted from microscopic images of elastomeric and plastomeric type polymer modified bitumen (PMB) including five different types and contents of polymers. Fluorescence microscopy was used to capture microscopic images from thin films of PMB samples at different magnification scales (400×, 100×, and 40×). Gabor filters were utilized to extract the textural features of bitumen images. The features were used in three different query tests to quantify their representation capacity. The K nearest neighbor classifier was tested using leave-one-out cross validation. Textural analysis on the captured images provided numerical results that are in compliance with subjective visual tests. © 2011 Carl Hanser Verlag, Munich, Germany.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Calibration of Double Stripe 3d Laser Scanner Systems Using Planarity and Orthogonality Constraints(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Ozan, Şükrü; Gümüştekin, ŞevketIn this study, 3D scanning systems that utilize a pair of laser stripes are studied. Three types of scanning systems are implemented to scan environments, rough surfaces of near planar objects and small 3D objects. These scanners make use of double laser stripes to minimize the undesired effect of occlusions. Calibration of these scanning systems is crucially important for the alignment of 3D points which are reconstructed from different stripes. In this paper, the main focus is on the calibration problem, following a treatment on the pre-processing of stripe projections using dynamic programming and localization of 2D image points with sub-pixel accuracy. The 3D points corresponding to laser stripes are used in an optimization procedure that imposes geometrical constraints such as coplanarities and orthogonalities. It is shown that, calibration procedure proposed here, significantly improves the alignment of 3D points scanned using two laser stripes.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Enhancing Stereo Matching Performance by Colour Normalisation and Specularity Removal(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2011) Ozan, Şükrü; Gümüştekin, ŞevketA method to enhance the performance of stereo matching is presented. The position of the specular light reflection on an object surface varies due to the change in the position of the camera, light source, object or all combined. Additionally, there may be situations exhibiting a colour shift owing to a change in the light source chromaticity or camera white balance settings. These variations cause misleading results when stereo matching algorithms are applied. In this reported work, a single-image-based statistical method is used to normalise source images. This process effectively eliminates non-saturated specularities regardless of their positions on the object. The effect of specularity removal is tested on stereo image pairs. © 2011 The Institution of Engineering and Technology.Conference Object Active Eye-Glasses With Local Dimming(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2011) Özvural, Görkem; Gümüştekin, ŞevketThe sense of sight provides the most reliable information about the environment. Although the human eye has a wide dynamic range for brightness adaptation, direct exposure to relatively bright light sources wipes out the total visual perception. The most remarkable example of this situation is driving a car at night, while the other cars are coming from the opposite lane with headlights on. In this work, we have proposed and developed a set of LCD equipped active glasses to solve this light adaptation problem. First, the location of the light sources are determined using an on board camera which is assembled in front of the glasses. After processing image data, the locations of the bright light sources are darkened and the disturbing effect of intense light sources is reduced. © 2011 Chamber of Turkish Electric.
