Table Detection

Supervisor: Florian Kleber Start: as soon as possible Problem Statement Document Image Analysis (DIA) deals with the analysis and recognition of document images. Tasks range from skew estimation, layout analysis to Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR). Tables in documents contain structured information which can allow a deeper insight into specific data. During layout analysis, one task … Continue reading Table Detection

Deep Learning-based Forensic Writer Retrieval/Document Segmentation

Status: available Supervisor: Manuel Keglevic Why? Law enforcement agencies possess an extensive collection of handwritten documents. This includes for example documents belonging to open cases, for example death threats, and reference samples from suspects and prisoners. Yet, these collections of documents can only be utilized to a limited extend, since for an identification of an … Continue reading Deep Learning-based Forensic Writer Retrieval/Document Segmentation

Segmentation of houses in historical Maps

Supervisor: Florian Kleber, Simon Brenner Start: as soon as possible Problem Statement Historical maps contain a lot of information like land boundarys or outlines of buildings. To show the development of citys and different regions it is necessary to extract this information from historical maps. Within this work the main goal will be detect the … Continue reading Segmentation of houses in historical Maps

Relation Detection: Image Similarity Measurement in Large Historical Archives

Status: available Supervisor: Daniel Helm, Martin Kampel Start: as soon as possible Problem Statement Automatic scene analysis is a crucial task for historians or film archivists in order to preserve and interpret the memories of human cultural history. Film archives include thousands of hours of digitized analog footage from the last 100 years up to … Continue reading Relation Detection: Image Similarity Measurement in Large Historical Archives

Historical Image Restoration: Deep learning-based versus traditional-based deformation strategies

Status: available Supervisor: Daniel Helm, Martin Kampel Start: as soon as possible Problem Statement Automatic video analysis in large historical film collections is a challenging task due to different aspects. One major challenge is related to the quality of historical films, e.g. over-, underexposures and blur. Furthermore, they include scratches, cracks or press cuts and … Continue reading Historical Image Restoration: Deep learning-based versus traditional-based deformation strategies

Camera Pose Estimation for Video Shot Analysis

Status: available Supervisor: Daniel Helm, Martin Kampel Start: as soon as possible Problem Statement Automatic video content analysis is needed in many different domains such as historical film preservation or film archiving. Due to the enormous quantity of available visual media data, automatic approaches shall be used in order to find specific content in videos … Continue reading Camera Pose Estimation for Video Shot Analysis

Automatic Ball Detection in Soccer, Golf and Tennis Games

Status: open Supervisor: Robert Sablatnig Problem Statement Detecting and tracking moving objects is a challenging task, since the objects’ optical signature is less discriminative due to occurring motion artifacts, occlusions in the wild and dynamic backgrounds. Goal The goal of this practical training project is to explore and examine methods that can be used to … Continue reading Automatic Ball Detection in Soccer, Golf and Tennis Games

Exploiting Context in Remote Sensing Object Detection

Status: open Supervisor: Sebastian Zambanini Problem Statement Detecting and classifying objects in remote sensing images is a challenging task, since the objects’ optical signature is less discriminative  due to the small resolution. Common object detection methods in this area aim to find object locations by classifying local structures, while neglecting the larger surroundings of the … Continue reading Exploiting Context in Remote Sensing Object Detection
