This article reports on a multi-resolution and multi-sensor approach developed for the accurate detailed 3D modeling of entire Roman Forum in Pompei, Italy. The archaeological area, approximately 150 × 80 m, contains more than 350 finds spread all over forum as well larger mural structures previous buildings temples. interdisciplinary work consists multi-scale image- range-based digital documentation method to fulfill surveying needs exploit intrinsic potentialities actual techniques. data...
The recent years saw an extensive use of 3D point cloud data for heritage documentation, valorisation and visualisation. Although rich in metric quality, these lack structured information such as semantics hierarchy between parts. In this context, the introduction classification methods can play essential role better usage, model definition, analysis conservation. paper aims to extend a machine learning (ML) method with multi-level multi-resolution (MLMR) approach. proposed MLMR approach...
Virtual Reality proposes different innovative solutions for the fruition of tangible, intangible, or no longer existing Cultural Heritage. The representation architectural artifacts through virtual 3D models framed in immersive and interactive environments allows building new paths knowledge. This kind narrative feeds fruition, understanding, involvement user. article presents examples VR applied CH field, highlighting capacities, foreshadowing possible future developments specific domain....
Augmented reality (AR) allows the real and digital worlds to converge overlap in a new way of observation understanding. The architectural field can significantly benefit from AR applications, due their systemic complexity terms knowledge process management. Global interest many research challenges are focused on this field, thanks conjunction technological algorithmic developments one side, massive digitization built data. A significant quantity AEC educational fields describes state art....
Shipping activity can be a substantial source of pollution and impact on the environment, including air, water ecosystems, as well adverse health climatic effects. Due to distribution maritime transport routes in EU, large portion population is exposed shipping throughout Europe. The ongoing European project EMERGE aims investigate quantify these impacts over Europe, more detail, specific case studies regions. Aveiro lagoon region Portugal one studies. This Natura 2000 area, also includes...
Active measurements allow the collection of server characteristics on a large scale that can aid in discovering hidden relations and commonalities among deployments.Finding these opens up new possibilities for clustering classifying deployments; example, identifying previously unknown cybercriminal infrastructure be valuable cyber-threat intelligence.In this work, we propose methodology based active to acquire Transport Layer Security (TLS) metadata from servers leverage it...
Deterioration mapping of façades may be a challenging task in historical urban contexts, often characterized by narrow streets and tall buildings. In these situations, the application Terrestrial Laser Scanning or Photogrammetry does not provide satisfactory results. Furthermore, use Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, so-called "drones", is generally forbidden crowded places for safety reasons unless they are lighter than weight imposed regulations force each country. This article presents very small...
In military architecture, the city wall between towers or bastions have architectural-structural characteristics related to defensive and offensive systems used. Such are boundaries of fortified cities at urban scale differ in shape size, structure, style, layering techniques, territorial relationship city. These distinctive elements may include tunnels built facilitate passage people armaments through networks passages within walls. addition, given fortifications, they present a peculiar...
The Alps are perhaps the best studied thrust belt formed during continent‐continent convergence (collision orogen). Shallow, intermediate, and deep structural levels can be distinguished within Alpine stack, each shedding sediments with distinct petrographic mineralogical signatures. In modern first‐cycle sands carried by rivers, bulk composition, rank of metamorphic lithic grains (metamorphic index [MI]), dense mineral assemblages all faithfully mirror tectono‐metamorphic history exposed...
The performance of 2D digital imaging systems depends on several factors related with both optical and electronic processing. These concepts have originated standards, which been conceived for photographic equipment bi-dimensional scanning systems, aimed at estimating different parameters such as resolution, noise or dynamic range. Conversely, no standard test protocols currently exist evaluating the corresponding performances 3D laser scanners pattern projection range cameras. This paper is...
Abstract. Cultural Heritage artifacts can often be underestimated for their hidden presence in the landscape. Such problem is particularly large countries like Italy, where massive amount of "famous" tends to neglect other presences unless properly exposed, or when remains are dramatically damaged leaving very few interpretation clues visitor. In such cases a virtual presentation site great help, specially explaining evolution its status, giving sometimes sense spare stones. The definition...
The reconstruction of 3D geometries starting from reality-based data is challenging and time-consuming due to the difficulties involved in modeling existing structures complex nature built heritage.

Computer modeling through digital range images has been used for many applications, including 3D of objects belonging to our cultural heritage. The scales involved from small (e.g. pottery), middle-sized works art (statues, architectural decorations), up very large structures (architectural and archaeological monuments). For any these suitable sensors methodologies have explored by different authors. object be modeled within this project is the "Plastico di Roma antica," a plaster-of-Paris...

En Cultural Heritage represents an aspect of our historical memory that in the last decade has suffered transformations, reductions or destructions for different human external factors. In this situation introduction technologies and methodologies suitable to reduce deterioration process been perceived as mandatory, leading development strategies permit preserve explain information embedded Heritage, supporting valorization through application representation instruments. 3D acquisition...
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are well-suited for learning on homophilous graphs, i.e., graphs in which edges tend to connect nodes of the same type. Yet, achievement consistent GNN performance heterophilous remains an open research problem. Recent works have proposed extensions standard architectures improve trading off model simplicity prediction accuracy. However, these models fail capture basic graph properties, such as neighborhood label distribution, fundamental learning. In this work,...
