Fusion of Photo with Airborne Laser Scanning

Jan Skaloud, Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Photogrammetry and Laser-Scanning are usually considered as complementary. Integration of these two observation methods has the potential to blend their individual advantages. The resulting benefit is likely to be higher in drone airborne mapping, which pa ...

On the adjustment, calibration and orientation of drone photogrammetry and laser-scanning

Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Centimetre level precision mapping is essential for many applications such as land-use, infrastructure inspection, cultural heritage preservation, and construction site monitoring. However, the acquisition and its preparation (in particular the setting of ...

Deformation-aware Unpaired Image Translation for Pose Estimation on Laboratory Animals

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Siyuan Li, Mirela Ostrek

Our goal is to capture the pose of neuroscience model organisms, without using any manual supervision, to be able to study how neural circuits orchestrate behaviour. Human pose estimation attains remarkable accuracy when trained on real or simulated datase ...

Learning Monocular 3D Human Pose Estimation from Multi-view Images

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Frédéric Meyer, Isinsu Katircioglu, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Victor Constantin

Accurate 3D human pose estimation from single images is possible with sophisticated deep-net architectures that have been trained on very large datasets. However, this still leaves open the problem of capturing motions for which no such database exists. Ma ...

Real-Time Generative Hand Modeling and Tracking

Anastasia Tkach

In our everyday life we interact with the surrounding environment using our hands. A main focus of recent research has been to bring such interaction to virtual objects, such as the ones projected in virtual reality devices, or super-imposed as holograms i ...

Bundle adjustment with raw inertial observations

Jan Skaloud, Davide Antonio Cucci, Martin Rehak

t is well known that accurate aerial position and attitude control is beneficial for image orientation in airborne photogrammetry. The aerial control is traditionally obtained by Kalman filtering/smoothing inertial and GNSS observations prior to the bundle ...

Online Generative Model Personalization for Hand Tracking

Mark Pauly, Andrea Tagliasacchi, Edoardo Remelli, Anastasia Tkach

We present a new algorithm for real-time hand tracking on commodity depth-sensing devices. Our method does not require a user-specific calibration session, but rather learns the geometry as the user performs live in front of the camera, thus enabling seaml ...

Learning Pose Invariant and Covariant Classifiers from Image Sequences

Mustafa Özuysal

Object tracking and detection over a wide range of viewpoints is a long-standing problem in Computer Vision. Despite significant advance in wide-baseline sparse interest point matching and development of robust dense feature models, it remains a largely op ...

Joint Pose Estimator and Feature Learning for Object Detection

Pascal Fua, François Fleuret, Karim Ali, David Hasler

A new learning strategy for object detection is presented. The proposed scheme forgoes the need to train a collection of detectors dedicated to homogeneous families of poses, and instead learns a single classifier that has the inherent ability to deform ba ...
