In this paper, a workflow is proposed to detect 3D building changes in urban and sub-urban areas using high-resolution stereoscopic satellite images of different epochs and a GIS database. Semi-global matching (SGM) is ...

We consider the problem of people search by a mobile social robot in case of a situation that cannot be solved by the robot alone. Examples are physically opening a closed door or operating an elevator. Based on the Behavior ...

The paper presents a novel concept of solar thermal panel specifically intended for building integration, aiming at a higher architectural quality and at a reduction of installation costs. The panel consists of a low-emissivity ...

Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) is by now a mature technique for the estimation of surface deformation in urban areas. In contrast to the classical interferometry a stack of interferograms is used to minimize the ...

A new method for roof plane detection using multiple aerial images and a point cloud is presented. It takes advantage of the fact that segmentation results for different views look different even if the same parameters are ...
