Seeing Photons in Color

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Paul Mos, Mohit Gupta

Megapixel single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) arrays have been developed recently, opening up the possibility of deploying SPADs as general-purpose passive cameras for photography and computer vision. However, most previous work on SPADs has been limited ...

Making Computer Vision Models Robust and Adaptive

Shuqing Teresa Yeo

Visual perception is indispensable for many real-world applications. However, perception models deployed in the real world will encounter numerous and unpredictable distribution shifts, for example, changes in geographic locations, motion blur, and adverse ...

From finger animation to full-body embodiment of avatars with different morphologies and proportions

Mathias Guy Delahaye

VR (Virtual Reality) is a real-time simulation that creates the subjective illusion of being in a virtual world. This thesis explores how integrating the user's body and fingers can be achieved and beneficial for the user to experience VR. At the advent of ...

Estimating Nonplanar Flow from 2D Motion-blurred Widefield Microscopy Images via Deep Learning

Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Adrian Shajkofci

Optical flow is a method aimed at predicting the movement velocity of any pixel in the image and is used in medicine and biology to estimate flow of particles in organs or organelles. However, a precise optical flow measurement requires images taken at hig ...

Reconciling Being in-Control vs. Being Helped for the Execution of Complex Movements in VR

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Thibault Serge Mario Porssut

Performing motor tasks in virtual environments is best achieved with motion capture and animation of a 3D character that participants control in real time and perceive as being their avatar in the virtual environment. A strong Sense of Embodiment (SoE) for ...

The Layer Laboratory: A Calculus for Additive and Subtractive Composition of Anisotropic Surface Reflectance

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Tizian Lucien Zeltner

We present a versatile computational framework for modeling the reflective and transmissive properties of arbitrarily layered anisotropic material structures. Given a set of input layers, our model synthesizes an effective BSDF of the entire structure, whi ...

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 ...

Realtime Face Tracking and Animation

Sofien Bouaziz

Capturing and processing human geometry, appearance, and motion is at the core of computer graphics, computer vision, and human-computer interaction. The high complexity of human geometry and motion dynamics, and the high sensitivity of the human visual sy ...

Smart knee prosthesis kinematics estimation and validation in a robotic knee simulator

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami

In this work we present the smart knee prosthesis designed for in-vivo kinematics measurement and its validation in two knee simulators, i.e. a robotic knee simulator to provide realistic condition, and a manual simulator with more degrees of freedom. The ...

Latent motion spaces for full-body motion editing

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic

We explore an approach to full-body motion edit- ing with linear motion models, prioritized constraint-based optimization and latent-space interpolation. By exploiting the mathematical connections between linear motion mod- els and prioritized inverse kine ...

Handling Motion-Blur in 3D Tracking and Rendering for Augmented Reality

Vincent Lepetit

The contribution of this paper is two-fold. First, we show how to extend the ESM algorithm to handle motion blur in 3D object tracking. ESM is a powerful algorithm for template matching-based tracking, but it can fail under motion blur. We introduce an ima ...

Motion Synergies for Real-Time Postural Control in Virtual Environments

Daniel Raunhardt

Virtual prototyping has become an important part during the product development process. The common way to let a user interact with the virtual prototype is the use of a three dimensional virtual mannequin that is controlled by the user. These human figure ...

Automated Motion LoD with Rigid Constraints

Daniel Thalmann, Junghyun Ahn

Motion LoD (Level of Detail) is a preprocessing technique that generates multiple details of captured motion by eliminating joints. This LoD technique is applied to movie, game or VR environments for the purpose of improving speed of crowd animation. So fa ...

Fast Non-Rigid Surface Detection, Registration and Realistic Augmentation

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Julien Pilet

We present a real-time method for detecting deformable surfaces, with no need whatsoever for a priori pose knowledge. Our method starts from a set of wide baseline point matches between an undeformed image of the object and the image in which it is to be d ...

Local velocity-adapted motion events for spatio-temporal recognition

Barbara Caputo

In this paper we address the problem in motion recognition using event-based local motion representations. We assume that similar patterns of motion contain similar events with consistent motion across image sequences. Using this assumption, we formulate t ...
