Project Summary for ARO MURI Topic
Project Summary for ARO MURI Topic #28 “Model Classes, Approximation, and Metrics for Dynamic Processing of Urban Terrain Data” Terrain models are a rich resource to both military and civilian sectors including such applications as autonomous navigation, mission planning, battlefield assessment, and emer- gency preparedness. Their usefulness depends on succinct encoding of terrain data not only for fast query and retrieval but also for efficient and accurate transmission of this data over restricted communication channels. Some applications demand real-time conversion of point cloud data to a continuous terrain representation. Unfortunately, the development of processing tools for terrain surfaces has been ad hoc and too often simply borrowed from image processing. Terrain maps are not conventional images and most image processing tools fail to extract the essential geometry and topology in terrains and fail to adhere to particular demands in the typical terrain application settings. While newer terrain modeling algorithms are meeting some success in capturing and priori- tizing geometry through techniques from differential geometry, they fail to capture high order topology because they treat terrains as functional surfaces. This is particularly damaging in urban terrain where man-made structures such as overhangs, bridges, arches, towers, and light poles, are not captured correctly. In addition, the metrics used to make decisions on bit allocation and accuracy of fit do not always match well with the targeted applications. Meeting these application demands requires substantially new metrics to measure distortion and new representation systems (explicit/implicit) that capture topology and geometry of surfaces. Implicit representations provide a simple way to capture higher genus topology, sig- nificantly reduce the number of bits needed to encode terrain (especially in urban settings), and allow for fast assimilation of line-of-sight and no-fly regions for navigation. -

Collaboration with basic and clinical scientists at the university has resulted in several “firsts” for our department this year, particularly in the area of robotic vascular surgery. We have developed an academic environment focused on our mission of excellent patient care, research and medical education: • Multidisciplinary clinical programs in Surgical Oncology at the new Miami Valley Hospital Cancer Center • A surgical training program that focuses on graduating excellent general surgeons, capable of practicing in a rural, urban, or global community, or competing for top-notch fellowships • WSU, leading in the development of endovascular surgery, has the third Magellan vascular robot in the country at Miami Valley Hospital, through the generous gift of Mr. Robert Brethen, • Research teams addressing questions of clinical and translational importance • Departmental stewardship, building the department to meet the complex and challenging needs of healthcare in our community. Recruitment of surgical oncologists and vascular surgeons has been supported by John Berry, Jr. Our patients, however, require more than technical expertise and advanced technology. -
