    Effect of Bilinear Interpolation on the Texture Analysis of Colonoscopy Images
    (IEEE345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2017) Kacmaz, Rukiye Nur; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Interpolation is a method that is used to obtain unknown intensities with the help of known intensities on an image. This method is frequently used in the literature to eliminate light reflection on colonoscopy images. Texture features are the most important characteristics used to describe the region or objects of interest in the image. They are the measures of intensity variation of a surface that determine properties such as smoothness, roughness, and regularity. The aim of this study is to find out the how bilinear interpolation applied on colonoscopy images with reflection impact texture features obtained from the same images. A research carried out to make reasonable comparison between a texture feature from an image with no reflection and the same feature obtained from the same image with synthetically added reflections with various percentages. Using the approaches like gray level co-occurence matrix (GLCM), gray level run length matrix (GLRLM), neighborhood gray tone difference matrix (NGTDM) 126 features were extracted from each 32x32 sub-images coming from 610 colonoscopy images. Several of the features extracted from sub-images with no reflection and reflection were not statistically significantly different, while majority of them were affected from the reflections.

    Aerial Swarms: Recent Applications and Challenges
    (Springer, 2021) Mohamed Abdelkader; Samet Güler
    Purpose of review: Currently, there is a large body of research on multi-agent systems addressing their different system theoretic aspects. Aerial swarms as one type of multi-agent robotic systems have recently gained huge interest due to their potential applications. However, aerial robot groups are complex multi-disciplinary systems and usually research works focus on specific system aspects for particular applications. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the main motivating applications that drive the majority of research works in this field, and summarize fundamental and common algorithmic components required for their development._x000D_ _x000D_ Recent findings: Most system demonstrations of current aerial swarms are based on simulations, some have shown experiments using few 10 s of robots in controlled indoor environment, and limited number of works have reported outdoor experiments with small number of autonomous aerial vehicles. This indicates scalability issues of current swarm systems in real world environments. This is mainly due to the limited confidence on the individual robot's localization, swarm-level relative localization, and the rate of exchanged information between the robots that is required for planning safe coordinated motions._x000D_ _x000D_ Summary: This paper summarizes the main motivating aerial swarm applications and the associated research works. In addition, the main research findings of the core elements of any aerial swarm system, state estimation and mission planning, are also presented. Finally, this paper presents a proposed abstraction of an aerial swarm system architecture that can help developers understand the main required modules of such systems.
