Efficient Temporally-Aware DeepFake Detection using H.264 Motion Vectors

Sabine Süsstrunk, Yufan Ren, Peter Arpad Grönquist, Alessio Verardo, Qingyi He

Video DeepFakes are fake media created with Deep Learning (DL) that manipulate a person’s expression or identity. Most current DeepFake detection methods analyze each frame independently, ignoring inconsistencies and unnatural movements between frames. Som ...

Pedestrian Stop and Go Forecasting with Hybrid Feature Fusion

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan, Dongxu Guo

Forecasting pedestrians' future motions is essential for autonomous driving systems to safely navigate in urban areas. However, existing prediction algorithms often overly rely on past observed trajectories and tend to fail around abrupt dynamic changes, s ...

Adaptive extreme video completion

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Majed El Helou, Ruofan Zhou

A computer-implemented video completion method is proposed for reconstructing a sparsely sampled video comprising sparsely sampled video frames comprising sparse sets of picture element intensity values. The method comprises: distributing the sparse sets o ...

Subjective and Viewport-based Objective Quality Assessment of 360-degree Videos

Pascal Frossard, Roberto Gerson De Albuquerque Azevedo

Visual distortions in processed 360-degree visual content and consumed through head-mounted displays (HMDs) are perceived very differently when compared to traditional 2D content. To better understand how compression-related artifacts affect the overall pe ...

An objective comparison of detection and segmentation algorithms for artefacts in clinical endoscopy

Georges Wagnières, Xiaokang Wang, Sharib Ali

We present a comprehensive analysis of the submissions to the first edition of the Endoscopy Artefact Detection challenge (EAD). Using crowd-sourcing, this initiative is a step towards understanding the limitations of existing state-of-the-art computer vis ...

Learning Temporary Block-Based Bidirectional Incongruity-Aware Correlation Filters for Efficient UAV Object Tracking

Yujie He

In the field of UAV object tracking, correlation filter based approaches have received lots of attention due to their computational efficiency. The methods learn filters by the ridge regression and generate response maps to distinguish the specified target ...

Predictive Validity of Thin-Slice Nonverbal Behavior from Social Interactions

Laurent Son Nguyen, Denise Frauendorfer

We present five studies investigating the predictive validity of thin slices of nonverbal behavior (NVB). Predictive validity of thin slices refers to how well behavior slices excerpted from longer video predict other measured variables. Using six NVBs, we ...

New Approaches to Artistic Synthesis Relying on Visual Perception

Mahmut Sami Arpa

Artists often take advantage of the limitations of the human visual system to create art that provides new experiences for the observers. Similarly, in this thesis, we explore new computational artistic compositions that create new visual experiences by re ...

Machine Learning-Based Quality-Aware Power and Thermal Management of Multistream HEVC Encoding on Multicore Servers

David Atienza Alonso, Marina Zapater Sancho, Arman Iranfar

The emergence of video streaming applications, together with the users’ demand for high-resolution contents, has led to the development of new video coding standards, such as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). HEVC provides high efficiency at the cost of ...

Deformable block based motion estimation in omnidirectional image sequences

Pascal Frossard, Francesca De Simone

This paper presents an extension of block-based motion estimation for omnidirectional videos, based on a camera and translational object motion model that accounts for the spherical geometry of the imaging system. We use this model to design a new algorith ...

Multiple Tab-and-Slot Joint : Improvement of the Rotational Stiffness for the Connection of Thin Structural Wood Panels

Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Stéphane Nicolas Roche

Researchers in Asia have focused on analyzing the rotational performance of traditional connections based on embedment. The Nuki through-joint has inspired work at the laboratory of wood construction (IBOIS), Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, to im ...

Motion-based nearest vector metric for reference frame selection in the perception of motion

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke

We investigated how the visual system selects a reference frame for the perception of motion. Two concentric arcs underwent circular motion around the center of the display, where observers fixated. The outer (target) arc's angular velocity profile was mod ...

Direct Prediction of 3D Body Poses from Motion Compensated Sequences

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Bugra Tekin, Artem Rozantsev

We propose an efficient approach to exploiting motion information from consecutive frames of a video sequence to recover the 3D pose of people. Previous approaches typically compute candidate poses in individual frames and then link them in a post-processi ...

On Compressibility of Neural Network phonological Features for Low Bit Rate Speech Coding

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Milos Cernak

Phonological features extracted by neural network have shown interesting potential for low bit rate speech vocoding. The span of phonological features is wider than the span of phonetic features, and thus fewer frames need to be transmitted. Moreover, the ...

Spatial properties of non-retinotopic reference frames in human vision

Michael Herzog

Many visual attributes of a target stimulus are computed according to dynamic, non-retinotopic reference frames. For example, the motion trajectory of a reflector on a bicycle wheel is perceived as orbital, even though it is in fact cycloidal in retinal, a ...

The effective reference frame in perceptual judgments of motion direction

Michael Herzog

The retinotopic projection of stimulus motion depends both on the motion of the stimulus and the movements of the observer. In this study, we aimed to quantify the contributions of endogenous (retinotopic) and exogenous (spatiotopic and motion-based) refer ...

Data Compression via Logic Synthesis

Giovanni De Micheli, Andreas Peter Burg, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Luca Gaetano Amarù

Nowadays, most software and hardware applications are committed to reduce the footprint and resource usage of data. In this general context, lossless data compression is a beneficial technique that encodes information using fewer (or at most equal number o ...
