Journal ArticleDOI
Towards automated progress assessment of workpackage components in construction projects using computer vision
TL;DR: A system that employs computer vision techniques to report on the progress of these work packages automatically by analysing sequences of digital images acquired regularly by on-site cameras is proposed, allowing a project to be monitored more effectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automating progress measurement of construction projects
Xiaonan Zhang,N Bakis,T.C. Lukins,Yahaya Makarfi Ibrahim,Song Wu,Mike Kagioglou,Ghassan Aouad,Ammar Peter Kaka,Emanuele Trucco +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, an integrated building information system that aims to determine the progress of construction from digital images captured on site in order to semi-automate the work in progress measurement and calculation of interim payments as well as function as an early warning system of potential delays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Individual Mouse Activity in Group Housed Animals of Different Inbred Strains using a Novel Automated Home Cage Analysis System.
Rasneer Sonia Bains,Heather Cater,Rowland R. Sillito,Agisilaos Chartsias,Duncan Sneddon,Danilo Concas,Piia Keskivali-Bond,T.C. Lukins,Sara Wells,Abraham Acevedo Arozena,Patrick M. Nolan,J. Douglas Armstrong +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the system accurately reports individual locomotor behavior within the group and that the measurements taken can provide unique insights into the effects of genetic background on individual and group behavior not previously recognized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automated recording of home cage activity and temperature of individual rats housed in social groups: The Rodent Big Brother project
William S. Redfern,Karen K Tse,Claire Grant,Amy Keerie,David J. Simpson,John C. Pedersen,Victoria Rimmer,Lauren Leslie,Stephanie Klein,Natasha A. Karp,Rowland R. Sillito,Agis Chartsias,T.C. Lukins,J. A. Heward,Catherine Vickers,Kathryn Chapman,J. Douglas Armstrong +16 more
TL;DR: A subcutaneous radiofrequency identification transponder is used to measure ambulatory activity and temperature of individual rats when group-housed in conventional, rack-mounted home cages to demonstrate its ability to reliably detect naturally occurring behavioral effects, extending beyond the capabilities of routine observational tests and conventional monitoring equipment.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Towards Automated Visual Assessment of Progress in Construction Projects
T.C. Lukins,Emanuele Trucco +1 more
TL;DR: A first prototype system capable of detecting changes on a building site observed by a fixed camera, and classifying such changes as either actual structural events, or as unrelated is presented.
