Computational Imaging SPAD Cameras

Andrei Ardelean

Vision systems built around conventional image sensors have to read, encode and transmit large quantities of pixel information, a majority of which is redundant. As a result, new computational imaging sensor architectures were developed to preprocess the r ...

Visualizing constructive alignment in the process of course design

Marc Laperrouza

Course design in higher education is often approached in a very linear and text-based manner. The paper presents a visual tool in the form of a canvas aimed at accompanying teachers in the design of courses. The canvas can be used in an individual or co-te ...

Efficient Query Processing for Spatial and Temporal Data Exploration

Eleni Tzirita Zacharatou

Core to many scientific and analytics applications are spatial data capturing the position or shape of objects in space, and time series recording the values of a process over time. Effective analysis of such data requires a shift from confirmatory pipelin ...

High-Order Vector Control of Grid-Connected Voltage Source Converters with LCL-Filters

Alfred Rufer, Michail Vasiladiotis, Behrooz Bahrani

This paper proposes a vector control strategy for LCL-filter-based grid-connected voltage source converters (VSCs). The proposed control strategy is inherently capable of attenuating the resonance phenomenon of such systems. This is an advantage over the e ...

Semantic-Driven Selection of Printer Color Rendering Intents

Sabine Süsstrunk, Albrecht Johannes Lindner

In this paper we introduce a unified framework that automatically selects the optimal color rendering intent for a given print job. We first present how we extract information from both the image features and the semantic information contained in keywords ...

Distributed SVM applied to image classification

Pascal Frossard, Effrosyni Kokiopoulou

This paper proposes an algorithm for distributed classification, based on a SVM scheme. The contribution of each support vector is approximated by low complexity distributed thresholding over sub-dictionaries, whose union forms a redundant dictionary of at ...

Variational reconstruction of scalar and vector images from non-uniform samples

Muthuvel Arigovindan

We address the problem of reconstructing scalar and vector functions from non-uniform data. The reconstruction problem is formulated as a minimization problem where the cost is a weighted sum of two terms. The first data term is the quadratic measure of go ...
