State of the Art in Dense Monocular Non-Rigid 3D Reconstruction

3D reconstruction of deformable (or non-rigid) scenes from a set of monocular 2D image observations is a long-standing and actively researched area of computer vision and graphics. It is an ill-posed inverse problem, since-without additional prior assumpti ...

Individual differences in the perception of visual illusions are stable across eyes, time, and measurement methods

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

Vision scientists have tried to classify illusions for more than a century. For example, some studies suggested that there is a unique common factor for all visual illusions. Other studies proposed that there are several subclasses of illusions, such as il ...

Influence of Artificially Generated Interocular Blur Difference on Fusion Stability Under Vergence Stress

Tomas Lukes

The stability of fusion was evaluated by its breakage when interocular blur differences were presented under vergence demand to healthy subjects. We presumed that these blur differences cause suppression of the more blurred image (interocular blur suppress ...

SynDeMo: Synergistic Deep Feature Alignment for Joint Learning of Depth and Ego-Motion

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Seyedbehzad Bozorgtabar, Mohammad Saeed Rad

Despite well-established baselines, learning of scene depth and ego-motion from monocular video remains an ongoing challenge, specifically when handling scaling ambiguity issues and depth inconsistencies in image sequences. Much prior work uses either a su ...

Shrinking Bouma's window: Visual crowding in dense displays

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet

In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. In the traditional feedforward framework of vision, only elements within Bouma’s window interfere with the target and adding more elements always leads to stronger crowdin ...

3D Box Proposals from a Single Monocular Image of an Indoor Scene

Mathieu Salzmann, Wei Zhuo

Modern object detection methods typically rely on bounding box proposals as input. While initially popularized in the 2D case, this idea has received increasing attention for 3D bounding boxes. Nevertheless, existing 3D box proposal techniques all assume h ...

Contrast measures for predicting perceptual effects of daylight in architectural renderings

Marilyne Andersen, María Lovísa Ámundadóttir, Siobhan Francois Rockcastle

Daylit architecture is perceived as a dynamic luminous composition, yet most existing performance metrics were designed to evaluate natural illumination for its ability to adequately illuminate a two-dimensional task surface and avoid glare-based discomfor ...

Personal familiarity enhances sensitivity to horizontal structure during processing of face identity

Mattew Pachai

What makes identification of familiar faces seemingly effortless? Recent studies using unfamiliar face stimuli suggest that selective processing of information conveyed by horizontally oriented spatial frequency components supports accurate performance in ...

Robust 3D Object Pose Estimation and Tracking from Monocular Images in Industrial Environments

Alberto Crivellaro

Recent advances in Computer Vision are changing our way of living and enabling new applications for both leisure and professional use. Regrettably, in many industrial domains the spread of state-of-the-art technologies is made challenging by the abundance ...

Trinocular Adaptive Window Size Disparity Estimation Algorithm and Its Real-Time Hardware

Alexandre Schmid, Yusuf Leblebici, Abdulkadir Akin, Raffaele Capoccia, Jonathan Emmanuel D Narinx, Ipek Baz

This paper proposes a hardware-oriented trinocular adaptive window size disparity estimation (T-AWDE) algorithm and the first real-time trinocular disparity estimation (DE) hardware that targets high-resolution images with high-quality disparity results. T ...

Balancing awareness: Vestibular signals modulate visual consciousness in the absence of awareness

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Roy Salomon, Mariia Kaliuzhna

The processing of visual and vestibular information is crucial for perceiving self-motion. Visual cues, such as optic flow, have been shown to induce and alter vestibular percepts, yet the role of vestibular information in shaping visual awareness remains ...

A Novel Representation of Parts for Accurate 3D Object Detection and Tracking in Monocular Images

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Kwang Moo Yi, Alberto Crivellaro, Yannick Verdie, Mahdi Rad

We present a method that estimates in real-time and under challenging conditions the 3D pose of a known object. Our method relies only on grayscale images since depth cameras fail on metallic objects; it can handle poorly textured objects, and cluttered, c ...

A direct comparison of unconscious face processing under masking and interocular suppression

Nathan Quentin Faivre, Julien Dubois

Different combinations of forward and backward masking as well as interocular suppression have been used extensively to render stimuli invisible and to study those aspects of visual stimuli that are processed in the absence of conscious experience. Althoug ...

Curved Holographic Combiner for Color Head Worn Display

Jürgen Brugger, Christophe Moser, Eric Tremblay, Victor Javier Cadarso Busto, Jonas Grossenbacher, Arnaud Mader, Seyedpayam Vahdati

A volume hologram recorded with a lens array is proposed as a color transflective screen for Head Worn Display (HWD) systems. Design, fabrication as well as proof of concept are reported. Light from a single MEMS-based projector is efficiently diffracted t ...

Binocular suppression occurs in object-centered coordinates

Michael Herzog, Marco Boi, Marcus Leonardus Vergeer

In binocular rivalry, only one image is perceived consciously when different, incompatible images are presented to the left and right eye, respectively. The other image is suppressed. Binocular suppression is generally assumed to occur within retinotopic c ...

Visual spatiotemporal processing in the elderly

Michael Herzog

We used backward masking paradigm to investigate the effects of aging on visual spatiotemporal processing. First, thirty-three older (M=65.3 years) and ten younger adults (M=24.3 years) had to indicate the offset direction of a vernier that was masked by a ...

Assessment of Stereoscopic Crosstalk Perception

Touradj Ebrahimi

Stereoscopic three-dimensional (3-D) services do not always prevail when compared with their two-dimensional (2-D) counterparts, though the former can provide more immersive experience with the help of binocular depth. Various specific 3-D artefacts might ...

Comparison of 3D portable display restitution techniques based on stereo and motion parallax

Touradj Ebrahimi, Martin Rerabek

Currently, the large majority of 3D display solutions rely on binocular perception phenomena. Furthermore, while 3D display technologies are already widely available for cinema and home or corporate use, only a few portable devices currently feature 3D dis ...
