We suggest a compound full-reference stereo-video quality metric composed of two components: a monoscopic quality component and stereoscopic quality, component. While the former assesses the trivial monoscopic perceived distortions caused by blur, noise, contrast change etc., the latter assesses the perceived degradation of binocular depth cues only. We use the structural similarity index as a measure for perceptual similarity and design a multiscale algorithm for obtaining a perceptual disparity map and a stereo-similarity map to be used in the suggested metric. We verify the performance of the metric with subjective tests on distorted stereo images and coded stereo-video sequences with a final aim to build a percepually-aware feedback for a H.264 based stereo-video encoder.

Low dark current N structure superlattice MWIR photodetectors
Salihoglu, Omer; Muti, Abdullah; Turan, Raşit; ERGÜN, YÜKSEL; AYDINLI, ATİLLA (2014-05-08)
Commercially available read out integrated circuits (ROICs) require the FPA to have high dynamic resistance area product at zero bias (R(0)A) which is directly related to dark current of the detector. Dark current arises from bulk and surface contributions. Recent band structure engineering studies significantly suppressed the bulk contribution of the type-II superlattice infrared photodetectors (N structure, M structure, W structure). In this letter, we will present improved dark current results for unipol...
Electrical impedance tomography: Induced-current imaging achieved with a multiple coil system
Gençer, Nevzat Güneri; Williamson, SJ (1996-02-01)
An experimental study of induced-current electrical impedance tomography verifies that image quality Is enhanced by employing six rather than three induction coils by increasing the number of independent measurements. However, with an increasing number of coils, the inverse problem becomes more sensitive to measurement noise, Using 16 electrodes to measure surface voltages, it Is possible to collect 6 x 15 = 90 independent measurements. For comparison purposes, images of two dimensional conductivity perturb...
SNR CALCULATION METHOD FOR REMOTE SENSING SATELLITE IMAGING SYSTEMS
Turkmenoglu, Mustafa; Sengul, Orhan; Demircioglu, Erdem (2013-06-01)
Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is a metric used to link the image quality and radiometric performance of the remote sensing imaging systems. It is one of the remote sensing imaging system's design parameters that represents the image quality. SNR calculation and analysis should be carried out at design phase of remote sensing imaging systems. This calculation and analysis are crucial for confirmation of design success. It is important to show that the light flux reaching the sensor and the generated electrons ...
Cutting strategies for forging die manufacturing on cnc milling machines
Özgen, Arda; Gökler, Mustafa İlhan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
Manufacturing of dies has been presenting greater requirements of geometrical accuracy, dimensional precision and surface quality as well as decrease in costs and manufacturing times. Although proper cutting parameter values are utilized to obtain high geometrical accuracy and surface quality, there may exist geometrical discrepancy between the designed and the manufactured surface profile of the die cavities. In milling process; cutting speed, step over and feed are the main cutting parameters and these pa...
Selection of light source and implementation of data acquisition system of an optical experimental setup
Reyhanioğlu, Erinç; Öke, Gülay; Department of Physics (2004)
The construction of an optical experimental setup is the objective, to measure transmission coefficient of optical components used in plasma investigations. Thus, proper light source either with continuous or line radiation spectrum should be used. In addition, the detectors̕ output signal is recorded on a PC based data recorder after being digitized by an analog to digital converter card.
