DyNCA: Real-time Dynamic Texture Synthesis Using Neural Cellular Automata

Sabine Süsstrunk, Ehsan Pajouheshgar, Yitao Xu, Tong Zhang

Current Dynamic Texture Synthesis (DyTS) models can synthesize realistic videos. However, they require a slow iterative optimization process to synthesize a single fixed-size short video, and they do not offer any post-training control over the synthesis p ...

Vertex function compliant with the Ward identity for quasiparticle self-consistent calculations beyond GW

Alfredo Pasquarello, Aleksei Tal, Wei Chen

We extend the quasiparticle self-consistent approach beyond the GW approximation by using a range separated vertex function. The developed approach yields band gaps, dielectric constants, and band positions with an accuracy similar to highest-level electro ...

Hessian Splines For Scanning Transmission X-Ray Microscopy

Michaël Unser, Thomas Jean Debarre

Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) produces images in which each pixel value is related to the measured attenuation of an X-ray beam. In practice, the location of the illuminated region does not exactly match the desired uniform pixel grid. This ...

Moiré effects produced by superpositions of micro-lens arrays

Thomas Walger

Moiré effects result from the superimposition of repetitive structures. The beauty of these moirés comes from the fact that macroscopic shapes seem to appear from the superposition of layers containing microscopic patterns. In addition, the moirés are dyna ...

Level-line moirés by superposition of cylindrical microlens gratings

Jürgen Brugger, Roger Hersch, Thomas Walger, Valentin Flauraud, Théophane Besson

Two superposed layers of transparent cylindrical lenslet gratings create classical moiré fringes when illuminated from behind. We rely on this observation to conceive special devices made of superposed lenslet gratings that produce compelling beating shape ...

Aliasing mitigation in optical microscopy of dynamic biological samples by use of temporally modulated color illumination and a standard RGB camera

Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Christian Jaques

Significance: Despite recent developments in microscopy, temporal aliasing can arise when imaging dynamic samples. Modern sampling frameworks, such as generalized sampling, mitigate aliasing but require measurement of temporally overlapping and potentially ...

Reparameterizing Discontinuous Integrands for Differentiable Rendering

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Guillaume Rémi Bruno Loubet

Differentiable rendering has recently opened the door to a number of challenging inverse problems involving photorealistic images, such as computational material design and scattering-aware reconstruction of geometry and materials from photographs. Differe ...

Evaluation of the ray-casting analytical algorithm for pencil beam scanning proton therapy

Ye Zhang, Sojin Shim

For pencil beam scanned (PBS) proton therapy, analytical dose calculation engines are still typically used for the optimisation process, and often for the final evaluation of the plan. Recently however, the suitability of analytical calculations for planni ...

Near-Infrared Fusion for Photorealistic Image Dehazing

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Frederike Dümbgen, Natalija Gucevska

Scattering of light due to the presence of aerosol particles along the path of radiation causes atmospheric haze in images. This scattering is significantly less severe in longer wavelength bands than in shorter ones, thus the importance of near-infrared ( ...

Communication-aware adaptive parareal with application to a nonlinear hyperbolic system of partial dierential equations

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Allan Svejstrup Nielsen, Gilles Brunner

In the strong scaling limit, the performance of conventional spatial domain decomposition techniques for the parallel solution of PDEs saturates. When sub-domains become small, halo-communication and other overheard come to dominate. A potential path beyon ...

Learning Data Triage: Linear Decoding Works for Compressive MRI

Volkan Cevher, Yen-Huan Li

The standard approach to compressive sampling considers recovering an unknown deterministic signal with certain known structure, and designing the sub-sampling pattern and recovery algorithm based on the known structure. This approach requires looking for ...

Motion Vector Estimation of Textureless Objects Exploiting Reaction-Diffusion Cellular Automata

Alexandre Schmid, Kazuyoshi Ishimura

Conventional motion estimation algorithms extract motion vectors from image sequences based on the image's local-brightness differences in consecutive images. Therefore, motion vectors are extracted along the moving edges formed by moving objects over thei ...

Template-based Monocular 3-D Shape Reconstruction And Tracking Using Laplacian Meshes

Tien Dat Ngo

This thesis addresses the problem of recovering the 3-D shape of a deformable object in single images, or image sequences acquired by a monocular video camera, given that a 3-D template shape and a template image of the object are available. While being a ...

A Fast Hadamard Transform for Signals with Sub-linear Sparsity in the Transform Domain

Martin Vetterli, Robin Scheibler, Saeid Haghighatshoar

In this paper, we design a new iterative low-complexity algorithm for computing the Walsh-Hadamard transform (WHT) of an N dimensional signal with a K-sparse WHT. We suppose that N is a power of two and K = O(N^α), scales sub-linearly in N for some α ∈ (0, ...
