In order to gather a deep understanding, data coming from non-invasive imaging techniques, such as PET, fMRI, and dMRI, is often combined with data coming from invasive experimental procedures capable of providing morphological, anatomical, and electrophysiological information. While non-invasive whole-brain imaging offers 3D information at a macro-scale, invasive procedures involve small-scale analysis of multiple 2D images or of 3D reconstructions obtained from slices.\n\u00a0\nThe project aims to introduce novel visual and data-intensive methods to enhance the understanding of data from such studies. Addressing key aspects in the analysis of neural data, the focus will be on novel methods for multi-layered visualization and manipulation of sets of possibly annotated 2D slices, with special emphasis on data stemming from the analysis of brain sections, and on novel methods for exploring fused 3D brain data at multiple scales, primarily concentrating on the combination of registered multi-labeled neurons, segmented cortical surfaces, and massive tractograms.\n\u00a0\nThe project is developed in collaboration with Spoke 1 (University of Parma) of the MNESYS Extended Partnership focused on Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology.","post_title":"XNAB","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"xnab","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:33:00","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:33:00","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/xnab\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19618,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:21:36","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:21:36","post_content":"The project will produce simplified colored 3D mesh models tuned for web\/distributed visualization.","post_title":"MPSF","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"mpsf","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:35:22","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:35:22","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/mpsf\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19624,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:21:49","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:21:49","post_content":"Development and delivery of an interactive system for the 3D exploration of the Mont'e Prama complex and support for its installation in the Archaeological Institute of the University of Zurich.","post_title":"MONTEPRAMA ZH","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"monteprama-zh","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:35:34","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:35:34","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/monteprama-zh\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19642,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:22:19","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:22:19","post_content":"The project covers the development and coordination of the Digital Mont e Prama installation at EXPO 2015 in Milan.

The software targets 3-D reconstruction and visualization of architectonic, neurophysiological and tract tracing data of primate cerebral cortex. Our emphasis is on providing interactive solutions to reconstruction and analysis problems by harnessing the power of new generation commodity graphics accelerators. We take as input data acquired in serially collected individual sections, in which the locations of outer and inner cortical boundaries, architectonic borders, electrode tracks, and labeled neurons are coded in X-Y coordinates. Linear and non-linear local transformations are interactively applied to sections for aligning them and minimizing distortions introduced by sectioning and histological procedures. Cortical surfaces are incrementally reconstructed during section manipulation using both direct triangulation and functional techniques. Using multipass rendering techniques, the system interactively generates realistic 3-D views that present in the same image the location of architectonic areas and the spatial location, density and cortical depth of the introduced data. The reconstructed brain can be resliced according to arbitrary planes and virtually dissected for showing sulcal banks without distortion. Application of this software to the analysis of data from our previous studies showed that this integrated system is a powerful tool for anatomo-functional correlation in highly convoluted brains and for comparing data from brains cut along different sectioning plans. The availability of low-cost, high performance graphics PC platforms makes this approach practical for everyday laboratory work.","post_title":"BRAIN","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"brain","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:39:24","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:39:24","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/brain\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"team_members":[{"ID":12553,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:17:36","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:17:36","post_content":"ECHOES aims to create the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH) as a shared platform for heritage professionals and researchers to access data, innovative scientific and training resources and advanced digital tools co-developed by the heritage community according to their specific needs.

This requires innovations that affect the entire process from energy rationalization, supply schemes for consumption centers powered by multiple sources to the optimization of pumping in the networks of adduction and distribution to the use of renewable energy.\n\u00a0\nENERGIDRICA will develop a decision support system for the energy efficiency of water supply and distribution networks by generating process innovations according to the principles of energy saving, energy reduction and integration with sustainable energy sources, in three complementary decision-making areas:\n- Urban center supply schemes from multiple sources. ENERGIDRICA will produce a structured and replicable methodology to energy rationalize the resource rates from each source, respecting the needs, the constraints of resource availability and the capacity of hydraulic carriers;\n- Management of pumping in adduction and distribution networks. ENERGIDRICA will develop methodologies for the analysis of energy inefficiencies and for the support of plant management that integrate advanced management-oriented hydraulic analysis tools, in which it is possible to physically based modeling of water losses in the network as indicators of energy and management efficiency;\n- Integration with sustainable energy sources. ENERGIDRICA will develop tools for the integration with sustainable energy sources in a logic of self-consumption to feed pumping systems. Different functionalities will be addressed to support the realization from scratch of sustainable energy recovery plants or to promote their use in the operational optimization of pumping.\n\u00a0\nAs part of the project, CRS4 will develop a forecasting system of generation from renewable sources for specific plants, based on the processing of the output of the GFS model at global scale, through machine learning systems based on historical data of energy production and weather forecasts.\u00a0\nThe forecasts, also of probabilistic type, will be made available through a web interface for the partners involved.\u00a0\n\u00a0\nThe transfer of the process innovations to the Managers will be ensured by the integration with the information systems already in use. The development of an open and flexible cloud architecture with respect to existing solutions will be integrated with interface services with sensors and actuators in an IoT logic. The standardization of processes through structured approaches, replicable and non-empirical, responds to the need to optimize the large hydraulic infrastructures that characterize the regions of the South, and beyond.","post_title":"ENERGIDRICA","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"energidrica","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:33:21","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:33:21","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/energidrica\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":14758,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:19:26","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:19:26","post_content":"The collaboration involves a service composed of analysis and consulting activities provided by CRS4 to the Foundation regarding the methods of physical reproduction applicable to the statues of the Mont'e Prama complex, starting from the models acquired and reconstructed using the methods introduced by CRS4.

In the COHERENT project, six leading European organisations provide complementary competencies to create a new networked holographic audio-visual platform to support real-time collaborative 3D interaction between geographically distributed teams. The display component will be based on innovative holographic techniques that can present, at natural human interaction scale, realistic animated 3D images to an unlimited number of freely moving simultaneous viewers. The design of the basic networked audiovisual components will be driven by two innovative demanding applications - a collaborative medical visualisation system and a collaborative design review system for the automotive industry - that will constitute by themselves an advancement of the state of the art in their specific domains. Both applications will provide intuitive access and interaction with shared 3D models through a sensory rich 3D user interface based on non-intrusive wireless interaction devices and offering 3D audio cues. Research will strongly concentrate on enabling technology for intuitive multi user access and interaction with complex 3D signals and objects. This project proposes to build a working high-resolution display in the one metre size range that, thanks to its human scale work area, will be ideally suited for multi-user collaborative working in true 3D. The challenge of providing the large visualisation data flow needed to drive such a device will be met using a cost-effective parallel solution based on commercial-off-the-shelf graphics and computing technology. Using GEANT, the pan-European Gigabit Research Network, the project will conduct distributed testing and validation of the system concepts for the two representative application scenarios. The research will be conducted in a 30-month schedule, to guarantee evaluation and demonstration of tangible results. Rapidly evolving advances in networked audiovisual communication technology are facilitating the emergence of computer-supported collaborative work (CSCW) systems. These systems are striving to seamlessly support collaboration between geographically distant teams for the purpose of achieving higher levels of participation, productivity, and creativity. They therefore address a major societal and economic challenge. Since visualisation is one of the most natural and intuitive ways to exchange information between humans, it has become the principal medium used in co-operative and multi-user situations. At the present time, however, state of the art collaborative real-time audiovisual systems typically rely on essentially 2D environments (traditional flat screens) to share information. For many professional applications, however, the main goal is to share the physical 3D object of common interest. These applications typically include clinical discussions among teams of medical specialists, multi-disciplinary scientific debate, design reviews between OEM's and suppliers using computer aided design (CAD), where the objects may be anatomical, molecular and product models respectively. Since these are almost exclusively very complex 3D objects, providing collaborative environments able to process, transmit and display 3D data in ways that match human perceptual abilities is therefore of primary importance and would represent a significant technology breakthrough. However, at present the only computer displays able to provide all the depth cues processed by the human brain to reconstruct a three-dimensional scene are unfortunately limited to single user configurations. Quite ironically, these limitations have led to networked solutions that facilitate remote collaboration only at the expense of the isolation of each participant from their local physical environment. In the COHERENT project, six leading European organisations in their respective fields provide complementary competencies to create a new networked holographic audio-visual platform striving to seamlessly support real-time collaborative 3D interaction between geographically distributed teams. The display component will be based on innovative holographic techniques that can present, at natural human interaction scale, realistic animated 3D images to an unlimited number of freely moving simultaneous viewers. The design of the basic networked audiovisual components will be driven by two innovative demanding applications - a collaborative medical visualisation system and a collaborative design review system for the automotive industry - that will constitute by themselves an advancement of the state of the art in their specific domains. Both applications will provide intuitive access and interaction with shared 3D models through a sensory rich 3D user interface based on non-intrusive wireless interaction and offering 3D audio cues. Research will strongly concentrate on enabling technology for intuitive multi user access and interaction with complex 3D signals and objects. The technical feasibility of the proposed holographic display solution has been recently demonstrated with the development of a ''small scale'' proof-of-concept, using white light based, 24 bit true colour, holographic 3D display. This project proposes to build on this earlier success to produce a working high-resolution display in the one metre size range that, thanks to its human scale work area, will be ideally suited for multi-user collaborative working in true 3D. The challenge of providing the large visualisation data flow needed to drive such a device will be met using a cost-effective parallel solution based on commercial-off-the-shelf graphics and computing technology. The driving applications have been chosen in two important sectors where collaborative 3D technology and networked audiovisual communication have a clear potential impact and provide a sizeable market for the future exploitation of the project results. Moreover, the need for distant teams to work together for a collaborative goal is becoming increasingly common in many industrial and social situations. Therefore, the best practice and methods opened-up by this project will have implications in other application domains. In particular, they will concern high potential, industry-driven domains such as next generation 3D-TV, electronic cinema, virtual and tele-presence and future mixed-reality-based communication services. The consortium has centred the project workplan around continuous and detailed end-user involvement in the research, development, evaluation, and validation activities.

CRS4 is the partner in charge of the study and development of multi-resolution terrain rendering components. CRS4 and ISTI\/CNR have proposed a new technique, called Batched Dynamic Adaptive Meshes (BDAM), based on a paired tree structure: a tiled quadtree for texture data and a pair of bintrees of small triangular patches for the geometry. Both preprocessing and rendering exploit out-of-core techniques and fully harnesses the power of current graphics hardware. Recent benchmarks indicate that the BDAM technique outperforms state-of-the-art techniques based on hierarchies of right triangles, currently regarded as the most efficient for continuous level-of-detail rendering.","post_title":"VPLANET","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"vplanet","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:39:05","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:39:05","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/vplanet\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19760,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:26:20","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:26:20","post_content":"Study and development of 3D reconstruction and visualization techniques for primate brains.","post_title":"URBAN","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"urban","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:39:07","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:39:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/urban\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19763,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:26:27","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:26:27","post_content":"The project aims at setting up and maintaining a laboratory for carrying out computer aided design and numerical simulation research activities in the biomedical and engineering domains.

The project aims at providing an environment for visualising and interacting with the anatomy and pathology demonstrated by advanced imaging methods and VR techniques. At the same time IERAPSI will allow rehearsal of procedures on an individual patient and the development of training systems based on individual patient's variations in anatomy and pathology. Today, planning of surgical procedures makes poor use of imaging data. In most cases surgeons simply study medical images from MRI, CT, etc. prior to surgery and construct an internal 3D model of anatomy in each individual case. Previous knowledge of normal anatomy is essential. Further the ability to rehearse the surgical procedure using patient specific data is extremely rare. IERAPSI will provide an interactive computerised environment for the planning and rehearsal of surgical procedures in individual patients. The most important goal is to contribute to the European Community's social objectives by improving the provision of health and life through the introduction of modern science technology into healthcare. Specifically, IERAPSI will provide: Image review and analysis tools to allow the surgical review of CT, MRI and angiographic examinations in an interactive 2D and 3D manner; an integrated suite of image segmentation and visualisation tools intended to allow rapid and accurate identification of individual structure based on their imaging characteristics; a physics based surgical simulation system with visual and haptic feedback for training surgeons to perform operations on individual patient data. To meet the project objectives IERAPSI will address surgery of the petrous bone - a common surgical site with complex anatomy. It requires a range of surgical procedures with escalating levels of complexity. CRS4 is the partner responsible for the study and development of the surgical simulation platform. The project has produced the following tangible results: a physically motivated burr-bone interaction model, loosely based on Hertz contact theory, that includes haptic forces evaluation, the bone erosion process and the resulting debris; adaptive techniques for real-time haptic and visual simulation of bone dissection, that exploit a multiresolution representation of the bone characteristic function to adaptively trade simulation quality with speed; a dynamic direct volume rendering technique based on OpenGL register combiners that is able to render shaded representations of dynamically changing rectilinear scalar volume in parallel to simulation threads; a running prototype of the bone dissection simulator. The system is based on patient-specific volumetric object models derived from 3D CT and MR imaging data. Real-time feedback is provided to the trainees via direct volume rendering and haptic feedback. The performance constraints dictated by the human perceptual system are met by exploiting parallelism via a decoupled simulation approach on a multi-processor PC platform. The end-user evaluation of the simulator was based on three groups of users characterized as: experts (Senior ENT Surgeons); with theoretical knowledge (residents); no previous experience. Complete session traces were acquired during the training sessions and have been later analyzed and compared. The system demonstrated realistic haptic and visual rendering, and the ability of simulating complete mastoidectomy procedures.","post_title":"IERAPSI","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ierapsi","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:39:13","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:39:13","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/ierapsi\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":19774,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-07-03 18:26:51","post_date_gmt":"2025-07-03 16:26:51","post_content":"Study of the functional properties of mirror neurons and investigation of the execution\/matching system in humans.

The fields of science, engineering, and technology are increasingly defined by data-driven approaches and need scalable solutions to make the most of the vast masses of information available. The study, development, and application of methods and technologies for processing, analyzing, exploring, and sharing massive and\/or complex data are, therefore, at the heart of all strategic research plans, both at the European and National scales and for regional smart specialization.\u00a0\nCRS4 actively contributes to this field of research and has now achieved a leading role in the national landscape. The institutional project XDATA, funded by the contribution under art. 9 L.R. 20\/2015, aims to consolidate and strengthen the center's activities in this strategic area and is divided into two parallel strands of activity:\n<ul>\n<li>The first stream, developed within the ViDiC sectore and leveraging synergies with initiatives at the national and international scale in the field of <strong>visual and data-intensive computing<\/strong>, focuses on scalable, and where possible shared and interoperable, enabling methods and technologies for acquiring, creating, processing, distributing and exploring complex and\/or massive datasets from simulations or measurements of real phenomena, objects, environments or processes. In particular, we will target our interest on: distributed computing, automation and machine learning solutions to improve the scalability of all processes; adaptive and intelligent visual computing methods for both the processing and understanding of geometric and visual data and their presentation; and management and sharing solutions based on data and process modeling using open formalisms, with a specific focus on the traceability and reproducibility of each process step. These general solutions will then be applied in vertical solutions in application areas that will include digital medicine, cultural heritage, and, more generally, digital science, engineering, and society.<\/li>\n<li>\nThe second strand, on the other hand, is developed within the Digital Technologies sectore, and focuses on the <strong>remote sensing<\/strong> supply chain, where the need emerges for a systematic structuring of processes for managing information flows, whether derived from satellite observation, aerial sensing, or ground-based networks, and the establishment of a persistent information base of aggregation of the time series of interest, functional for feeding models in the domains of interest and for multi-scenario representation of geographic output. The development of data fusion methodologies in the different spectral ranges, in line with the activities of ongoing projects, also requires the study of operational-type processing methodologies, especially where real-time requirements may be relevant. Application areas will mainly address the issues of resource access and environmental sustainability.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\u00a0\nIncluded in the project are specific activities targeting: research, development, and technology transfer; pilot studies; maintenance of dedicated research and development infrastructure; scientific dissemination; standardization activities; and other activities aimed at achieving greater integration with the scientific community and public and private entities.","post_title":"XDATA","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"xdata","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-02 12:32:06","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-02 10:32:06","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.crs4.it\/projects\/xdata\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"projects","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":75339,"post_author":"4","post_date":"2025-09-25 17:00:04","post_date_gmt":"2025-09-25 15:00:04","post_content":"EXCALIBUR will studies, develops, and evaluates a holistic framework that offers innovative tools and methods for enhanced study, improved conservation and restoration works, and knowledge of cultural heritage objects, based on their digital twins.\nEXCALIBUR focuses on solutions that assist the study, conservation, and restoration of burial excavations, remains, and findings at the level of (a) burial sites, excavations, and surroundings, (b) tomb structures and burial decorations, (c) artefacts, burial findings, traditions and ceremonies, and (d) human and burial remain.
