A knowledge-based approach to the automatic algorithm selection for 3D scene annotation

Abstract: In this paper we present a novel approach for 3D point cloud processing with the aim of annotating objects in a scanned scene. Our method is based on human cognition to guide the 3D processing algorithms and uses semantic knowledge to manage data and identify immediate situation-dependent objectives. In particular, we have built a system that allows an automatic and flexible selection of algorithms. The selection strategy exploits knowledge to identify the geometrical features to be detected as well as the objects to be annotated at each stage of the 3D processing of the point cloud.

DISTA: a portable software solution for 3D compilation of photogrammetric image blocks

Abstract: A photogrammetric evaluation system used for the precise determination of 3D-coordinates from blocks of large metric images will be presented. First, the motivation for the development is shown, which is placed in the field of processing tools for photogrammetric evaluation tasks. As the use and availability of metric images of digital type rapidly increases corresponding equipment for the measuring process is needed. Systems which have been developed up to now are either very special ones, founded on high end graphics workstations with an according pricing or simple ones with restricted measuring functionality. A new conception will be shown, avoiding special high end graphics hardware but providing a complete processing chain for all elementary photogrammetric tasks ranging from preparatory steps over the formation of image blocks up to the automatic and interactive 3D-evaluation within digital stereo models. The presented system is based on PC-hardware equipped with off the shelf graphics boards and uses an object oriented design. The specific needs of a flexible measuring system and the corresponding requirements which have to be met by the system are shown. Important aspects as modularity and hardware independence and their value for the solution are shown. The design of the software will be presented and first results with a prototype realised on a powerful PC-hardware configuration will be featured

HR Excellence bei der SCHOTT AG – Globales Change Monitoring bei der Implementierung eines innovativen Performance und Talent Managements

Abstract: Im Rahmen der HR Excellence Initiative der SCHOTT AG wurden die bereits existierenden Performance und Talent Management Prozesse durch die Informationstechnologie integriert und weltweit implementiert Die 70 lokalen HR Manager, 2700 Fuhrungskrafte sowie deren Mitarbeiter in den Landesgesellschaften sollen von dem Leistungsbeurteilungssystem und Talent Management uberzeugt werden und nach einer kurzen Kommunikations- und Trainingsphase die HR Prozesse in einem Webportal anwenden konnen Parallel zur Umsetzung dieses Change Managements wurde ein vierstufiges Change Monitoring-Vorgehen mittels Befragungen definiert, um die Akzeptanz sowie die Befahigung bzgl der HR Prozesse bei den Zielgruppen zu messen Die Ergebnisse der drei Befragungen von den HR Managern zeigen eine Steigerung des Akzeptanzgrads uber die Zeit hinweg Interkulturelle Unterschiede der Regionen beeinflussen zudem signifikant deren Urteile Die Antworten der Manager und Mitarbeiter sind positiv, aber fallen in den Regionen signifikant unterschiedlich aus Der Erfolg des globalen Change Managements liegt neben einem einheitlichen Masterplan in der Berucksichtigung regionaler Unterschiede
