    Image Enhancement Algorithm for Remote Surveillance Using Low Cost Cameras in Unevenly Illuminated Environments
    (IEEE, 2021-12-07) Dharmasena, T; Abeygunawardhana, P. K. W
    The surveillance domain is becoming increasingly popular due to the demand for security and safety. In terms of the data being used, the cameras linked to them play an essential role. However, in poorly lit environments, the acquired image may appear to be underexposed when the camera adjusts itself to the light available in the scene, resulting in a loss of visual information in poorly lit regions. This could result in poor functionality in image based processing, as well as a negative impact on remote surveillance monitoring activities. This study offers a novel algorithm for improving the illumination of scenes that are unevenly lit using a selective pixels processing method to enhance the illumination of the environment. Rather than processing grayscale versions of red,green and blue channels to enhance the image, this approach uses value (v) channel of an HSV image.

    Tempcache: A Database Optimization Algorithm for Real-Time Data Handling in Indoor Spatial Environments
    (IEEE, 2018-08-08) Jayakody, A; Murray, I; Hermann, J; Lokuliyana, S; Dunuwila, V. R
    The unstable arrangement of modern indoor environments has made navigation within buildings a difficult task. Hence, this paper introduces the AccessBIM framework, which is an efficient real-time indoor navigation system that facilitates in generating a real-time indoor map by crowdsourcing spatial data through the sensors available in mobile devices of navigators. The framework is equipped with a database optimization algorithm known as “Tempcache” which reduces the time and cost of searching data by examining the AccessBIM database for previously navigated paths, thus enabling faster data retrieval through efficient query processing. A simulation of a virtual environment similar to an actual indoor environment was used to test the algorithm. The significance of the algorithm was validated by comparing the total map generation time before and after the algorithm was applied for which the results demonstrated a reduction in map generation time with the use of the algorithm. The framework is also capable of capturing localization information with the support of i-Beacons which is then stored in a cloud server.
