Enhancing Feature Detection and Matching in Low-Pixel-Resolution Hyperspectral Images Using 3D Convolution-Based Siamese Networks.

Today, hyperspectral imaging plays an integral part in the remote sensing and precision agriculture field. Identifying the matching key points between hyperspectral images is an important step in tasks such as image registration, localization, object recognition, and object tracking. Low-pixel resolution hyperspectral imaging is a recent introduction to the field, bringing benefits such as lower cost and form factor compared to traditional systems.

Design, implementation and performance validation of UOMPro artificial hand: Towards affordable hand prostheses.

In this paper, an anthropometric, active artificial prosthetic hand named UOMPro (University of Moratuwa Prosthetic) is proposed. The UOMPro hand is realized during research on developing affordable hand prostheses for use by people mainly in developing countries where purchasing high cost state-of-the-art commercial hand prostheses may be beyond their capacity. The proposed hand is developed with an affordable cost (<; 850 USD) and it consists of 6 Degrees of Freedom (DOF) including flexion/extension motions of five fingers and abduction/adduction motion of the thumb finger.
