We present the Simplified Lissajous Ellipse Fitting (SLEF) method for the calculation of the random phase step and the phase distribution from two phase-shifted interferograms. We consider interferograms with spatial and temporal dependency of background intensities, amplitude modulations and noise. Given these problems, the use of the Gabor Filters Bank (GFB) allows us to filter--out the noise, normalize the amplitude and eliminate the background. The normalized patterns permit to implement the SLEF algorithm, which is based on reducing the number of estimated coefficients of the ellipse equation, from five terms to only two. Our method consists of three stages. First, we preprocess the interferograms with GFB methodology in order to normalize the fringe patterns. Second, we calculate the phase step by using the proposed SLEF technique and third, we estimate the phase distribution using a two--steps formula. For the calculation of the phase step, we present two alternatives: the use of the Least Squares (LS) method to approximate the values of the coefficients and, in order to improve the LS estimation, a robust estimation based on the Leclercs potential. The SLEF methods performance is evaluated through synthetic and experimental data to demonstrate its feasibility.

In this paper, an outlier elimination algorithm for ellipse/ellipsoid fitting is proposed. This two-stage algorithm employs a proximity-based outlier detection algorithm (using the graph Laplacian), followed by a model-based outlier detection algorit hm similar to random sample consensus (RANSAC). These two stages compensate for each other so that outliers of various types can be eliminated with reasonable computation. The outlier elimination algorithm considerably improves the robustness of ellipse/ellipsoid fitting as demonstrated by simulations.
Two steps phase shifting interferometry has been a hot topic in the recent years. We present a comparison study of 12 representative self--tunning algorithms based on two-steps phase shifting interferometry. We evaluate the performance of such algori thms by estimating the phase step of synthetic and experimental fringe patterns using 3 different normalizing processes: Gabor Filters Bank (GFB), Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) and Hilbert Huang Transform (HHT); in order to retrieve the background, the amplitude modulation and noise. We present the variants of state-of-the-art phase step estimation algorithms by using the GFB and DNNs as normalization preprocesses, as well as the use of a robust estimator such as the median to estimate the phase step. We present experimental results comparing the combinations of the normalization processes and the two steps phase shifting algorithms. Our study demonstrates that the quality of the retrieved phase from of two-step interferograms is more dependent of the normalizing process than the phase step estimation method.
We present the evaluation of a closed form formula for the calculation of the original step between two randomly shifted fringe patterns. Our proposal extends the Gram--Schmidt orthonormalization algorithm for fringe pattern. Experimentally, the phas e shift is introduced by a electro--mechanical devices (such as piezoelectric or moving mounts).The estimation of the actual phase step allows us to improve the phase shifting device calibration. The evaluation consists of three cases that represent different pre-normalization processes: First, we evaluate the accuracy of the method in the orthonormalization process by estimating the test step using synthetic normalized fringe patterns with no background, constant amplitude and different noise levels. Second, we evaluate the formula with a variable amplitude function on the fringe patterns but with no background. Third, we evaluate non-normalized noisy fringe patterns including the comparison of pre-filtering processes such as the Gabor filter banks and the isotropic normalization process, in order to emphasize how they affect in the calculation of the phase step.
The immersion and the interaction are the important features of the driving simulator. To improve these characteristics, this paper proposes a low-cost and mark-less driver head tracking framework based on the head pose estimation model, which makes the view of the simulator can automatically align with the drivers head pose. The proposed method only uses the RGB camera without the other hardware or marker. To handle the error of the head pose estimation model, this paper proposes an adaptive Kalman Filter. By analyzing the error distribution of the estimation model and user experience, the proposed Kalman Filter includes the adaptive observation noise coefficient and loop closure module, which can adaptive moderate the smoothness of the curve and keep the curve stable near the initial position. The experiments show that the proposed method is feasible, and it can be used with different head pose estimation models.
Actigraphy has been widely used for the analysis of circadian rhythm. Current practice applies regression analysis to data from multiple days to estimate the circadian phase. This paper presents a filtering method for online processing of biometric d ata to estimate the circadian phase. We apply the proposed method on actigraphy data of fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster).
