On Rendering Synthetic Images for Training an Object Detector [PDF]
, 2014 We propose a novel approach to synthesizing images that are effective for training object detectors. Starting from a small set of real images, our algorithm estimates the rendering parameters required to synthesize similar images given a coarse 3D model ...

Mapping Buried Steel Flowlines Using Geophysical Sensors on Small Drone Aircraft
SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2020 Abstract This study evaluated magnetic surveys using small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) for the mapping of small diameter, buried pipelines, particularly flowlines. The study found that 2-inch diameter, steel pipelines buried 3-ft. deep can be confidently mapped by a total field, atomic magnetometer flown at 8 m above ground level, the

Risk Times in Mission‐Oriented Systems
Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article assesses risk times in mission‐oriented systems with high safety standards. We examine critical times under two safety policies. The first requires that the system's reliability function, known the first failure of the components, must exceed a reliability level throughout the mission.
