If you are already using the LTI-Lib and your project or product is missing here, just send us a small report, an we will be glad to add it.

Research projects

Visual Information Retrieval at LTI

Research in this group deals with machine vision and its application to visual information retrieval. The main research topics are object recognition and pose estimation, for which almost exclusivelly the LTI-Lib image processing and general classification and clustering methods are used.

Sign Language Recognition at LTI

Sign languages are visual languages used by many deaf people all over the world. Teaching computers to recognize this language is the main research topic of this group. The LTI-Lib provides the required image processing tools and the Hidden-Markov-Models classifiers used for the recognition.

Mobile Service Robots at LTI

The research of the robotics group at the Chair of Technical Computer Science (LTI) concentrates on topics like robot simulation in distributed virtual environments, mobile manipulation based on teach-in in virtual environments, assisted wheelchair to support physically handicapped people, RoboCup, and much more. The LTI-Lib provides the necessary framework for image processing and image acquisition.

Computer Vision Group at ULg

University of Liege, Belgium, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (Montefiore Institute), Group of Computer Vision and Signal Processing. Research in computer vision, machine learning, medical imaging, radar imaging. They have been using the LTI-Lib for student projects (imaging, computer vision) since mid 2003, and also use it in research activities (sports video analysis, visual feature learning).
