Reconhecimento de faces sob diferentes condições de iluminação utilizando PCA e a transformada census

Os seres humanos identificam naturalmente outros seres humanos utilizando suas características físicas, fisiológicas ou comportamentais. Dentre essas características, destacam-se os traços faciais. O avanço tecnológico na área de Biometria tem promovido o desenvolvimento de inúmeras técnicas para o reconhecimento automático de faces por meio de computadores, entretanto, existem ainda vários fatores que dificultam esta aplicação, como por exemplo, a variação das condições de iluminação. O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os efeitos da aplicação de um filtro de processamento de imagens, denominado Transformada Census, em uma base de dados com imagens da face em diferentes condições de iluminação. Assim, experimentos foram realizados utilizando a técnica PCA com imagens da base de dados AR antes e depois da aplicação da Transformada Census. Os resultados desses experimentos mostraram que a aplicação da Transformada Census melhorou o resultado do reconhecimento das faces, reduzindo a taxa de erro.

Inclusão digital no ensino de iluminação natural

The teaching/learning activities of the daylighting built environment require from the Architecture and Urbanism undergraduate student the ability to abstract the effects of daylight distributed in three-dimensional space that is being designed. Several tools and techniques can be used to facilitate the understanding of the involved phenomena, among which the computational simulation. This paper reports the digital inclusion of the daylighting teaching in the Architecture and Urbanism undergraduate course at the School of Architecture, Arts and Social Communication of Bauru (FAAC) of UNESP – Sao Paulo State University, that began in 2010. The inclusion process involved free software use, specifically the programs DIALux and SketchUp+Radiance, both with graphical output for the illuminated scenes visualization and for result analysis. The graphic model is converted from SketchUp to Radiance by a plugin and a user-friendly interface for Windows was developed to simulate the lighting. The process of digital inclusion is consolidated, with wide acceptance by students, for which computational simulation facilitates understanding of relation between daylight and built environment and helps the design process of elements for daylighting control.

Impacto da redução do nível de tensão na iluminação residencial em uma rede inteligente

In this paper, we will present an overview of the smart grid defining the three main systems that compose it: smart infrastructure system, smart management system and smart protection system. We will conceptualize a functionality of smart management system, the conservative voltage reduction, citing its benefits and its history of application. And, finally, we'll cover a test in which we reduce the nominal voltages on incandescent bulbs, CFL and LED, in the context of residential lighting, and on LED and HPS, in the context of public lighting. The test aims to check whether the voltage reduction adversely affects sources of lighting by measuring the temperature manually with a thermal imaging camera FLIR and illuminance with a LUX meter. The set of power factor, total harmonic distortion, and input power values will be collected automatically through the power quality Analyzer Fluke 345 with a probe Fluke Hall Effect Current. For residential lighting, it was found that both CFL and LED had good performance with the smallest variations in illuminance. Between both, the LED source had the lowest harmonics and the lowest power consumption, on the other hand incandescent bulbs had a bad performance as expected. Public light sources also had a good performance and obtained power factors within the standards, as opposed to the CFL and LED residential sources. The data collected clearly shows the feasibility for nominal voltage reductions. Even with small reductions, there are possibilities of savings which can be passed on to the utilities and consumers

Sistema autônomo de iluminação utilizando energia solar

This work presents a self-sustainable lighting system using ultracapacitor as a storage device, replacing the conventional battery, using solar energy as the only energy supplier. A detailed study of solar panels, switched mode converters and ultracapacitors was made, in order to design a circuit capable of capturing solar energy and transfer it efficiently to a bank of ultracapacitors. Later, at nighttime, this energy is used for lighting in LED luminaires which have high luminous efficiency and high reliability index. This work presents the design of the solar panel, ultracapacitors bank, the development of the voltage converter circuit and charger working at the maximum power point of the solar panel. All subsystems were simulated and it was shown that the use of ultracapacitors is feasible to feed a LED lamp with enough brightness for a person to walk at night, for two night shifts, using a capacitive bank with twenty-four ultracapacitors. Replacing the battery by an ultracapacitor allows a faster recharge, with low maintenance costs, since ultracapacitors have a lifetime bigger than batteries; beyond reducing the environmental impact, as they don't use potentially toxic chemical compounds

Desenvolvimento e aplicação do índice de desempenho energético da iluminação pública utilizando lógica nebulosa: estudo de caso da Cidade Universitária \"Armando de Salles Oliveira\" da Universidade de São Paulo.

A eficiência e a racionalidade energética da iluminação pública têm relevante importância no sistema elétrico, porque contribui para diminuir a necessidade de investimentos na construção de novas fontes geradoras de energia elétrica e nos desperdícios energéticos. Apresenta-se como objetivo deste trabalho de pesquisa o desenvolvimento e aplicação do IDE (índice de desempenho energético), fundamentado no sistema de inferência nebulosa e indicadores de eficiência e racionalidade de uso da energia elétrica. A opção em utilizar a inferência nebulosa deve-se aos fatos de sua capacidade de reproduzir parte do raciocínio humano, e estabelecer relação entre a diversidade de indicadores envolvidos. Para a consecução do sistema de inferência nebulosa, foram definidas como variáveis de entrada: os indicadores de eficiência e racionalidade; o método de inferência foi baseado em regras produzidas por especialista em iluminação pública, e como saída um número real que caracteriza o IDE. Os indicadores de eficiência e racionalidade são divididos em duas classes: globais e específicos. Os indicadores globais são: FP (fator de potência), FC (fator de carga) e FD (fator de demanda). Os indicadores específicos são: FU (fator de utilização), ICA (consumo de energia por área iluminada), IE (intensidade energética) e IL (intensidade de iluminação natural). Para a aplicação deste trabalho, foi selecionada e caracterizada a iluminação pública da Cidade Universitária \"Armando de Salles Oliveira\" da Universidade de São Paulo. Sendo assim, o gestor do sistema de iluminação, a partir do índice desenvolvido neste trabalho, dispõe de condições para avaliar o uso da energia elétrica e, desta forma, elaborar e simular estratégias com o objetivo de economizá-la.

Proposta de metodologia para diagnóstico técnico da iluminação pública.

A Iluminação Pública (IP) está num momento de profundas mudanças, principalmente com a popularização da tecnologia LED e dos sistemas de controle a distância. O gestor de serviços públicos precisa conhecer a complexidade do uso final da IP para que possa gerir esse ativo direcionado às necessidades dos usuários, tendo em vista o dinamismo de evolução diária dos centros urbanos. Este estudo tem por objetivo desenvolver uma metodologia que permite levantar, cadastrar, diagnosticar e avaliar, o parque de IP existente em ambientes urbanos. Tem como questão de pesquisa: Como prover os gestores de serviços públicos de conhecimento da situação dos ativos de IP? Trata-se de uma pesquisa observacional e descritiva, desenvolvida em uma região que compreende uma área de 26,5 km², com uma população de 344.632 habitantes, localizada em uma região metropolitana brasileira. A metodologia aplicada divide-se em dois momentos: pesquisa documental e de campo. Inicia-se com um levantamento de documentações a respeito da vida pregressa do acervo, disponíveis nos escritórios da Concessionária de Energia local e da Prefeitura Municipal. Posteriormente procede-se uma identificação do perfil da cidade, onde o sistema de iluminação está inserido, buscando compreender como o sistema de IP instalado está integrado às necessidades da população. Essas primeiras ações visam recolher subsídios para a etapa seguinte, de levantamento técnico em campo, que buscou identificar não só os atributos de IP existentes para atualização cadastral, como também identificou anomalias que estavam atrapalhando o desempenho do sistema e a influência provocada pelo meio onde está inserido. A metodologia pode ser uma ferramenta que contribui para a gestão do serviço de IP inserida dentro dos centros urbanos, possibilitando a adoção de medidas de ajustes que visem dotar o acervo de IP de uma estrutura de manutenção direcionada para cada região da cidade, considerando sua especificidade e perfil dos usuários. Antes de qualquer adoção de novas tecnologias, como por exemplo lâmpadas LED, telecomando, etc., é imprescindível que se tenha um diagnóstico do acervo existente e a identificação do uso final da IP no meio em que se encontra.

Estratégias para obtenção de adequada iluminação natural em escolas: uma análise de sistemas de aberturas para Natal/RN

The purpose of this research is to analyze different daylighting systems in schools in the city of Natal/RN. Although with the abundantly daylight available locally, there are a scarce and diffuse architectural recommendations relating sky conditions, dimensions of daylight systems, shading, fraction of sky visibility, required illuminance, glare, period of occupation and depth of the lit area. This research explores different selected apertures systems to explore the potential of natural light for each system. The method has divided into three phases: The first phase is the modeling which involves the construction of three-dimensional model of a classroom in Sketchup software 2014, which is featured in follow recommendations presented in the literature to obtain a good quality of environmental comfort in school settings. The second phase is the dynamic performance computer simulation of the light through the Daysim software. The input data are the climate file of 2009 the city of Natal / RN, the classroom volumetry in 3ds format with the assignment of optical properties of each surface, the sensor mapping file and the user load file . The results produced in the simulation are organized in a spreadsheet prepared by Carvalho (2014) to determine the occurrence of useful daylight illuminance (UDI) in the range of 300 to 3000lux and build graphics illuminance curves and contours of UDI to identify the uniformity of distribution light, the need of the minimum level of illuminance and the occurrence of glare.

Resolução em tomografia de tempo de trânsito poço-a-poço: a dependência da iluminação

The key aspect limiting resolution in crosswell traveltime tomography is illumination, a well known result but not as well exemplified. Resolution in the 2D case is revisited using a simple geometric approach based on the angular aperture distribution and the Radon Transform properties. Analitically it is shown that if an interface has dips contained in the angular aperture limits in all points, it is correctly imaged in the tomogram. By inversion of synthetic data this result is confirmed and it is also evidenced that isolated artifacts might be present when the dip is near the illumination limit. In the inverse sense, however, if an interface is interpretable from a tomogram, even an aproximately horizontal interface, there is no guarantee that it corresponds to a true interface. Similarly, if a body is present in the interwell region it is diffusely imaged in the tomogram, but its interfaces - particularly vertical edges - can not be resolved and additional artifacts might be present. Again, in the inverse sense, there is no guarantee that an isolated anomaly corresponds to a true anomalous body because this anomaly can also be an artifact. Jointly, these results state the dilemma of ill-posed inverse problems: absence of guarantee of correspondence to the true distribution. The limitations due to illumination may not be solved by the use of mathematical constraints. It is shown that crosswell tomograms derived by the use of sparsity constraints, using both Discrete Cosine Transform and Daubechies bases, basically reproduces the same features seen in tomograms obtained with the classic smoothness constraint. Interpretation must be done always taking in consideration the a priori information and the particular limitations due to illumination. An example of interpreting a real data survey in this context is also presented.

Luz-personagem: o jogo de manipulação da iluminação cênica em cenas cômicas

This research has as a central point of discussion the relationship between the action and the stage lighting, directed to scenes in which, from the exchange between actor and professional lighting, you can develop comic situations. The particularity of these scenes is the involvement of lighting as presentification feature a character in the scene, made possible by game created with the actor. In order to develop this discussion, the author divides the text into three chapters, the first being a memorial of his artistic career and his creative processes, enabling the reader to situate the paths taken by the author for the study. Then discusses possible relationship between performance and lighting, pointing situations where the two are directly related. Finally, an analysis and comparison of two comic scenes in which the actor play with the lighting suggests a character through presentification lighting on the scene. Leads the discussion to the conclusion, proposing the term light-character to set the lighting feature, suggesting characters in the scene.
