pyFFS: A Python Library for Fast Fourier Series Computation and Interpolation with GPU Acceleration

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

Fourier transforms are an often necessary component in many computational tasks, and can be computed efficiently through the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. However, many applications involve an underlying continuous signal, and a more natural choi ...

SiML: Sieved Maximum Likelihood for Array Signal Processing

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

Stochastic Maximum Likelihood (SML) is a popular direction of arrival (DOA) estimation technique in array signal processing. It is a parametric method that jointly estimates signal and instrument noise by maximum likelihood, achieving excellent statistical ...

CPGD: Cadzow Plug-and-Play Gradient Descent for Generalised FRI

Martin Vetterli, Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Adrien Georges Jean Besson

Finite rate of innovation (FRI) is a powerful reconstruction framework enabling the recovery of sparse Dirac streams from uniform low-pass filtered samples. An extension of this framework, called generalised FRI (genFRI), has been recently proposed for han ...

Graph Spectral Clustering of Convolution Artefacts in Radio Interferometric Images

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

The starting point for deconvolution methods in radioastronomy is an estimate of the sky intensity called a dirty image. These methods rely on the telescope point-spread function so as to remove artefacts which pollute it. In this work, we show that the in ...

DeepWave: A Recurrent Neural-Network for Real-Time Acoustic Imaging

Martin Vetterli, Sepand Kashani, Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

We propose a recurrent neural-network for real-time reconstruction of acoustic camera spherical maps. The network, dubbed DeepWave, is both physically and algorithmically motivated: its recurrent architecture mimics iterative solvers from convex optimisati ...

A Physical Model of Non-stationary Blur in Ultrasound Imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Yves Wiaux, Paul Hurley, Dimitris Perdios, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Adrien Georges Jean Besson, Marcel Arditi

Conventional ultrasound (US) imaging relies on delay-and-sum (DAS) beamforming which retrieves a radio- frequency (RF) image, a blurred estimate of the tissue reflectivity function (TRF). Despite the non-stationarity of the blur induced by propagation effe ...

Towards More Accurate Radio Telescope Images

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Nezihe Merve Gürel

Radio interferometry usually compensates for high levels of noise in sensor/antenna electronics by throwing data and energy at the problem: observe longer, then store and process it all. We propose instead a method to remove the noise explicitly before ima ...

A Functional Framework For Ultrasound Imaging

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

Delay-And-Sum (DAS), the state-of-art in ultrasound imaging, is known to be sub-optimal, resulting in low resolution and contrast. Most proposed improvements involve ad-hoc re-weighting, or hit computational bottlenecks given real-time requirements. This p ...

LEAP: Looking beyond pixels with continuous-space EstimAtion of Point sources

Martin Vetterli, Paul Hurley, Thierry Blu, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Hanjie Pan

Context. Two main classes of imaging algorithms have emerged in radio interferometry: the CLEAN algorithm and its multiple variants, and compressed-sensing inspired methods. They are both discrete in nature, and estimate source locations and intensities on ...

Hardware And Software For Reproducible Research In Audio Array Signal Processing

Paul Hurley, Eric Bezzam, Sepand Kashani, René Beuchat, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Robin Scheibler, Hanjie Pan, Corentin Ferry, Basile Gérard Pierre Bruneau

In our demo, we present two hardware platforms for prototyping audio array signal processing. Pyramic is a 48-channel microphone array fitted on an FPGA and Compact Six is a portable microphone array with six microphones, closer to the technical constraint ...
