    A method has been proposed to generate a free viewpoint video from a multi-viewpoint video captured by a camera array with cameras arranged in a 2D grid pattern and apply real-time editing to a target object in the video. The target object and its background are purely extracted without blurred color impurities of occluding objects in real time from the free viewpoint video by giving focal planes to their respective positions in the 3D space. Then, the extracted target object is interactively edited by translating, rotating, and scaling in a 2D image plane, and merged with the extracted background to obtain a new free viewpoint video. In this study, we propose a method to extend the editing from a 2D plane to a 3D space.

    Fluids can be divided into two types: Newtonian fluids, which have constant viscosity, and non-Newtonian fluids, whose viscosity increases or decreases nonlinearly depending on the applied force. In this study, we focus on shear thickening fluid(dilatant fluids) whose viscosity increases as the applied force increases. We propose a new method to simulate a characteristics of dilatant fluids by reproduce the friction of fine particles in the fluid, which is the principle that generates non-Newtonianity, with friction constraint in the position-based method, instead of the method by controlling the viscosity coefficient, which has been used in previous studies.

    We propose a predictive error estimating method that makes it possible to separate and associate measured values of the steering angle to each adjusting hypothesis elements in the brain. Its effectiveness was verified through a virtual cycling experiment in a 360-degree video projected to the ico sphere.

    In this presentation, I will introduce how image editing techniques have been developed through deep learning. The methodology for image processing and editing has been actively researched in the fields of computer graphics and computer vision. In particular, deep learning with multi-layer neural networks has recently been applied to this task, enabling complicated image editing based on high-level image features, which is difficult with the previous approaches. I will first give an overview of research on image editing using deep learning and then focus on several specific research examples with more details. The presentation will also give an exposition on previous approaches without deep learning to explain how deep learning has improved these methods. In addition, current problems and future prospects in this field will be discussed.

    In order to improve material-recycling of disposed electronic appliances, we aim to develop a system to analyze and categorize electronic boards and parts utilizing cameras over conveyor belt. We adopt deep learning technology to recognize part images. Since popular CNN models for general object recognition are over performing, we reduce and optimize the structure of the network to fit electronic parts. Our model classify a single part image within about 120[μsec] with an accuracy of about 95[%].

    The purpose of this research is to improve the accuracy of dairy cows’ individual identification by image recognition using cow pattern features. To solve the problem of misidentification with similar patterns, we propose a method for dairy cows’ individual identification using local feature alignment with an attention mechanism. This method improves the accuracy of individual dairy cow identification by using local feature alignment to obtain the aligned distance between pairs of images of dairy cows, considering and training the CNN using this distance. Furthermore, adding the attention mechanism will also improve the accuracy of individual identification.

    We propose a method to detect trees for tree management by estimating trunks from tree regions composed of 3D point clouds that contain missing or noisy trees. Conventional methods have problems with detection accuracy, such as a single tree being split into multiple trees due to defects or multiple trees being detected as a single tree due to noise. The proposed method focuses on the trunk, which is the center of a tree, and improves tree detection accuracy by estimating clusters of trunks from horizontally segmented tree point clouds, removing noise, and then vertically integrating clusters based on the consistency of trunk union in consideration of defects.

    In recent years, with the spread of VR goggles and smartphones, stereo image processing and stereoscopic vision have become more familiar. Posterization processing is a basic image processing that manipulates the gray level of an image and is used in many applications such as style conversion and image information adjustment. In this research, when changing the gray level of a stereo image by posterization processing, we investigated how it affects the parallax accuracy of the stereo image using the parallax information evaluation image.

    In recent years, with the spread of VR goggles and smartphones, the opportunities to view and process stereo images have been increasing. Accordingly, anonymization of personal information, such as mosaicing and blurring, is also required for stereo images. However, when stereo images are anonymized by conventional techniques, the stereoscopic effect is not maintained due to the degradation of disparity information. In this study, we propose a method to reduce the negative effects on stereoscopic perception by performing anonymization while evaluating disparity information of stereo images. We also confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method through quantitative evaluation using disparity information evaluation images.

    Along with the increase in the feeding rate of the pets such as dogs and cats, the amount of time people spend together with their pets is increasing. Pets cannot show their emotions by language unlike, so we need to estimate pet’s emotions to spend comfortable times with them. In this paper, we propose a method to estimate cat’s emotion based on Action Unit defined for each part of cat’s face, which is extracted from cat images using deep learning.

    In this paper, we proposes a system to generate environmental sounds from tree swaying based on a tree simulation. A position-based dynamics is used to simulate the real-time tree swaying, in order to obtain the timing of leaf collision and friction. For the collision sound, modal analysis is performed based on the voxel model made from a leaf shape to obtain the natural frequencies, and for the friction sound, a recursive frequency characteristic is reproduced using 1/f noise. The system can generate sound based on the simulation with various tree parameters, and reduce the time and effort required to record or synthesize sound which match computer graphics animations. As a result, the system enables simultaneous generation of both animation and sound.
