β¦ Synopsis
measurements can be recovered from several views by triangulation. This paper deals with the problem of where to place the cameras in order to obtain a minimal error in the 3D measurements, also called camera network design in photogrammetry. We pose the problem in terms of an optimization design, dividing it into two main components: (1) an analytical part dedicated to the analysis of error propagation from which a criterion is derived, and (2) a global optimization process to minimize this criterion. In this way, the approach consists of an uncertainty analysis applied to the reconstruction process from which a covariance matrix is computed. This matrix represents the uncertainty of the detection from which the criterion is derived. Moreover, the optimization has discontinuities due to the presence of occluding surfaces between the viewpoint and the object point group, which leads to a combinatorial optimization process. These aspects are solved using a multi-cellular genetic algorithm. Experimental results are provided to illustrate the e ectiveness and e ciency of the solution.

We study the problem of moving a vertex in an unstructured mesh of triangular, quadrilateral, or tetrahedral elements to optimize the shapes of adjacent elements. We show that many such problems can be solved in linear time using generalized linear programming. We also give efficient algorithms for
Since earthquake ground motions are very uncertain even with the present knowledge, it is desirable to develop a robust structural design method taking into account these uncertainties. Critical excitation approaches are promising and a new probabilistic critical excitation method is proposed. Diffe
