the aim of this paper is to investigate the bazaars and shopping centers as public spaces. given theweakness of public places and consequently the weakness of social interactions, today’s societies are in dire need ofsocial spaces to increase social interactions. therefore, the review of these two as then and now’s urban spaces couldhelp solve some problems. bazaars are among the oldest iranian...

In this article, we present a fast and accurate stereo vision-based system that detects and tracks road obstacles, as well as computes their 3D position and their axial motion. To do so, axial motion maps are constructed and the inclination angles of 3D straight segments are computed. 3D straight segments are obtained after the construction of 3D sparse maps based on dynamic programming and mul...

This paper presents a linear representation of the built environment called “continuity line”. A continuity line is the aggregation of several axial lines to represent an urban path in its longest extension, respecting a maximum sinuosity previously defined. It is based on two main arguments: first, that the notion of continuity is already embedded in the axial system; and second, that the cont...

We present a phase-imaging method with an axial range that can in principle be arbitrarily large compared to the wavelength and does not involve the usual phase unwrapping by detection of phase discontinuity. The method consists of the generation and combination of two phase maps in a digital holography system by use of two separate wavelengths. For example, we reconstructed the surface of a sp...

PURPOSE To evaluate the performance and potential clinical role of three-dimensional (3D) 1060-nm OCT by generating choroidal thickness (ChT) maps in patients of different ages with different degrees of ametropia and axial lengths and to investigate the effect of cataract grade on OCT retinal imaging quality. METHODS Axial lengths (ALs) and 45° fundus photographs were acquired from 64 eyes (3...
