Recent progress in computational photography has shown that we can acquire near-infrared (NIR) information in addition to the normal visible (RGB) information with only slight modification to the standard digital camera. In this thesis, we study if this ex ...
A camera for simultaneously capturing a visible and near-infrared (NIR) image of one or more objects, the camera comprising: at least one colour filter array (CFA) including at least four different filters, said at least one colour filter array having visi ...
Near-infrared light can be used to determine the optical properties (absorption and scattering) of human tissue. Optical tomography uses this principle to image the internal structure of parts of the body by measuring the light that is scattered in the tis ...
Recent progress in computational photography has shown that we can acquire physical information beyond visible (RGB) image representations. In particular, we can acquire near-infrared (NIR) cues with only slight modification to any standard digital camera. ...
Standard digital cameras are sensitive to radiation in the near-infrared domain, but this additional cue is in general discarded. In this paper, we consider the scene categorisation problem in the context of images where both standard visible RGB channels ...
Driven by the exponentially growing demand for capacity, it is already apparent that the next generation of telecommunication networks will be radically different from previous implementations; coherent detection along with powerful digital signal processi ...
Camera spectral sensitivity functions relate scene radiance with captured RGB triplets. They are important for many computer vision tasks that use color information, such as multispectral imaging, color rendering, and color constancy. In this paper, we aim ...
We present a method to automatically detect shadows in a fast and accurate manner by employing the inherent sensitivity of digital camera sensors to the near-infrared (NIR) part of the spectrum. Shadows are generally found in the dark parts of an image, be ...
A two-color GaN-based quantum cascade detector is demonstrated. This photodetector operates simultaneously at a peak wavelength of 1.7 and 1 mu m at room temperature without any external voltage. These peaks correspond, respectively, to the e(1)e(2) and e( ...
Reducing communication cost is crucial for outdoor wireless monitoring cameras which are constrained by limited energy budgets. From event detection point of view, traditional video coding schemes such as H.264 are inefficient as they ignore the "meaning" ...
