Research areas
This topic is addressed by the SIF team (Image, Signal, Pattern) and concerns signal processing and images and pattern and shape recognition .. This topic is a multi-disciplinary field of STIC (Sciences and Technologies of Information and Communication). Application fields are numerous and include materials engineering, process engineering, information engineering, industrial engineering, bio-medical engineering, etc.
This basic research deals with several non-linear approaches (including the modeling, treatment, analytical and simulation aspects), mainly applied to images.
Research in progress is logarithmic treatment founded on logarithmic image processing theory, mixed logarithmic and morphological processing, locally adaptive multi-scalar processing and homotopic processing.
The idea is to complete this research program by proceeding from theory to practice.
Applied research is carried out in partnership with other Divisions at ENSMSE, industrial companies or institutions, industrial or academic teams. One research contract with an industrial company deals, in particular, with the characterization of crystals by analysis of images formed from Xrays.
A particular effort will be made in the near future to extend to "bio" applications including bio-imagery, bio-computer science and bio-modeling (in collaboration with the School's SMS and SPIN divisions) and external partners such as the INSERM Laboratory in Biology and Bone Biochemistry of Saint-Etienne, Saint-Etienne teaching hospital and industrial companies in this sector.
