From Probability Graphical Models to Dynamic Networks — A Bayesian perspective on Smooth Best Estimate of Trajectory with applications in Geodetic Engineering

Laurent Valentin Jospin, Jesse Ray Murray Lahaye

Bayesian statistics is concerned with the integration of new information obtained through observations with prior knowledge, and accordingly, is often related to information theory (Jospin 2022). Recursive Bayesian estimation methods, such as Kalman Filter ...

LenslessPiCam: A Hardware and Software Platform for Lensless Computational Imaging with a Raspberry Pi

Martin Vetterli, Eric Bezzam, Sepand Kashani, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

Lensless imaging seeks to replace/remove the lens in a conventional imaging system. The earliest cameras were in fact lensless, relying on long exposure times to form images on the other end of a small aperture in a darkened room/container (camera obscura) ...

Learning rich optical embeddings for privacy-preserving lensless image classification

Martin Vetterli, Eric Bezzam, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

By replacing the lens with a thin optical element, lensless imaging enables new applications and solutions beyond those supported by traditional camera design and post-processing, e.g. compact and lightweight form factors and visual privacy. The latter ari ...

Precise Hand Finger Width Estimation via RGB-D Data

Mahdi Nobar

We propose a novel application of pose estimation to precisely measure the hand ﬁnger width via noisy RGB-D image. A framework is developed that estimates the ﬁnger width given data from TrueDepth camera as well as the target ﬁnger measure- ment location. ...

Learning stereo reconstruction with deep neural networks

Stepan Tulyakov

Stereo reconstruction is a problem of recovering a 3d structure of a scene from a pair of images of the scene, acquired from different viewpoints. It has been investigated for decades and many successful methods were developed. The main drawback of these ...

Graph-based regularization of inverse problems in imaging

Mattia Rossi

As of today, the extension of the human visual capabilities to machines remains both a cornerstone and an open challenge in the attempt to develop intelligent systems. On the one hand, the development of more and more sophisticated imaging devices, capable ...

Mise en scène du quotidien, une "camera obscura" pour le campus lausannois

Lorsque la lumière est contrainte à n'entrer que par un seul point dans une chambre noire, on observe alors une projection inversée en temps réel sur le mur opposé. La “camera obscura” révèle ce phénomène optique naturel. Plusieurs penseurs l'ont utilisée ...

Obstacle detection for lake-deployed autonomous surface vehicles using RGB imagery

David Andrew Barry, Philippe Olivier Paccaud

We describe and test an obstacle-detection system for small, lake-deployed autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) that relies on a low-cost, consumer-grade camera and runs on a single-board computer. A key feature of lakes that must be accounted for is the fre ...
