Para esta proposta realizo um recorte na minha produção artística, observo uma série de trabalhos que movem inquietações conceituais e estão direcionadas para a projeção de imagens das diversas faces. Objetivando representar as diferentes humanidades que integram a paisagem urbana. Esta observação dos lugares apresenta o cruzamento de histórias e emoções e a discussão do significado da vigilância na produção artística que interage com as tecnologias. Questões que estão articuladas com o meu percurso. / Abstract: This paper proposes a reflection of the ways and means of using the network composition and manipulation of images on-line in a set of procedures through digital capture and applications resulting from a search in the search for a contemporary artistic production. To realize this proposal a cut in my artistic production, watch a series of works that move and conceptual concerns are directed towards the projection of images of different faces. Aiming to represent the different humanities that make up the urban landscape. This observation shows the places of intersection of stories and emotions and discussion of the significance of monitoring the production of art that interacts with the technologies.

The content of this diploma thesis is a hardware and software design of advanced weather station with image transmission. The meteostation consist of two units - outdoor and indoor unit. Outdoor unit provide processing measured values from temperature sensor, atmospheric pressure sensors, rain gauge and windmeter. It also provides processing of captured image and wireless transmission of measured values to indoor unit. Indoor unit should provide comfortable meteostation controlling and visualization of weather situation by web interface.

H.264/AVC encoder complexity is mainly due to variable size in Intra and Inter frames. This makes H.264/AVC very difficult to implement, especially for real time applications and mobile devices. The current technological challenge is to conserve the compression capacity and quality that H.264 offers but reduce the encoding time and, therefore, the processing complexity. This thesis applies machine learning technique for video encoding mode decisions and investigates ways to improve the process of generating more general low complexity H.264/AVC video encoders. The proposed H.264 encoding method decreases the complexity in the mode decision inside the Inter frames. Results show, at least, a 150% average reduction of complexity and, at most, 0.6 average increases in PSNR for different kinds of videos and formats. / by Paula Carrillo. / Thesis (M.S.C.S.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2008. / Includes bibliography. / Electronic reproduction.

Telepathology is defined as the practice of pathology at a distance using video imaging and telecommunications. In this thesis we address the two main technology challenges in implementing telepathology, viz. compression and transmission of digital pathology images. One of the barriers to telepathology is the availability and the affordability of high bandwidth communication resources. High bandwidth links are required because of the large size of the uncompressed digital pathology images. For efficient utilization of available bandwidth, these images need to be compressed. However aggressive image compression may introduce objectionable artifacts and result in an inaccurate diagnosis. This discussion helps us to identify two main design challenges in implementing telepathology, 1. Compression: There is a need to develop or select an appropriate image compression algorithm and an image quality criterion to ensure maximum possible image compression, while ensuring that diagnostic accuracy is not compromised. 2. Transmission: There is a need to develop or select a smart image transmission scheme which can facilitate the transmission of the compressed image to the remote pathologist without violating the specified bandwidth and delay constraints. We addressed the image compression problem by conducting subjective tests to determine the maximum compression that can be tolerated before the pathology images lose their diagnostic value. We concluded that the diagnostically lossless compression ratio is at least around 5 to 10 times higher than the mathematically lossless compression ratio, which is only about 2:1. We also set up subjective tests to compare the performance of the JPEG and the JPEG 2000 compression algorithms which are commonly used for compression of medical images. We concluded that JPEG 2000 outperforms JPEG at lower bitrates (bits/pixel), but both the algorithms perform equally well at higher bitrates. We also addressed the issue of image transmission for telepathology by proposing a two-stage transmission scheme, where coarse image information compressed at diagnostically lossless level is sent to the clients at the first stage, and the Region of Interest is transmitted at mathematically lossless compression levels at the second stage, thereby reducing the total image transmission delay.
