The laboratory, consisting of one server, multiple workstations, associated cameras, frame grabbers, output devices, and selected network and image processing software, will be bridged to existing departmental, college, and campus networks, and will be used to accomplish the following goals: Expand research investigations advancing image processing and information visualization, Encourage interdisciplinary research, research training, and educational activities, Increase industrial collaboration adding a real world problem environment, Support graduate and undergraduate instruction in related courses such as Pattern Recognition, Computer Graphics, and Digital Imaging, and Attract women and minority groups at both graduate and undergraduate levels to pursue research projects.The infrastructure will service the following projects within three research groups:1. Information Visualization and Data Mining GroupA. Visual Exploration and Mining of Large Relational DatasetsB. Algorithm VisualizationC. Interactive Document ManagementD. Visualization of Association Rules2. Image Visualization, Color Measurement, and Color Analysis GroupA. Color Reproduction in Digital ImagingB. Fundamental Analysis of CCD Imaging Systems Using Fourier Theory3. Real-Time Image Processing and Pattern Recognition GroupA. Utilizing Wavelets for Target TrackingB. An Integrated Image Analysis Algorithm from Dynamic ScenesC. Confocal Microscopy and Image Analysis in Gamma-Ray AstronomyD. Wireless Vision for Intelligent Transportation SystemE.
