Euclid: Validation of the MontePython forecasting tools

Slobodan Ilic, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Julien Lesgourgues, Richard Massey, Maurizio Martinelli, Jean-Luc Starck, Yi Wang

Context. The Euclid mission of the European Space Agency will perform a survey of weak lensing cosmic shear and galaxy clustering in order to constrain cosmological models and fundamental physics. Aims. We expand and adjust the mock Euclid likelihoods of t ...

XXXIV. The effect of linear redshift-space distortions in photometric galaxy clustering and its cross-correlation with cosmic shear

Slobodan Ilic, Malte Tewes, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Fabio Finelli, Richard Massey, Maurizio Martinelli, Alessandro Pezzotta, Gianluca Castignani, Marcello Farina, Yi Wang

Context. The cosmological surveys that are planned for the current decade will provide us with unparalleled observations of the distribution of galaxies on cosmic scales, by means of which we can probe the underlying large-scale structure (LSS) of the Univ ...

Euclid preparation XXIV. Calibration of the halo mass function in λ(ν)CDM cosmologies

Slobodan Ilic, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Fabio Finelli, Maurizio Martinelli, Gianluca Castignani, Marcello Farina, Austin Chandler Peel, Yi Wang

Euclid's photometric galaxy cluster survey has the potential to be a very competitive cosmological probe. The main cosmological probe with observations of clusters is their number count, within which the halo mass function (HMF) is a key theoretical quanti ...

Euclid preparation XXVI. The Euclid Morphology Challenge: Towards structural parameters for billions of galaxies

Slobodan Ilic, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Richard Massey, Maurizio Martinelli, Gianluca Castignani, Marcello Farina, Yi Wang

The various Euclid imaging surveys will become a reference for studies of galaxy morphology by delivering imaging over an unprecedented area of 15000 square degrees with high spatial resolution. In order to understand the capabilities of measuring morpholo ...

Euclid preparation: VII. Forecast validation for Euclid cosmological probes

Murat Kunt, Slobodan Ilic, Georges Meylan, Richard Massey, Maurizio Martinelli, Jean-Luc Starck, Yi Wang

Aims. The Euclid space telescope will measure the shapes and redshifts of galaxies to reconstruct the expansion history of the Universe and the growth of cosmic structures. The estimation of the expected performance of the experiment, in terms of predicted ...

Parsing human skeletons in an operating room

Pascal Fua, Slobodan Ilic, Horesh Beny Ben Shitrit, Vasileios Belagiannis, Xinchao Wang

Multiple human pose estimation is an important yet challenging problem. In an Operating Room (OR) environment, the 3D body poses of surgeons and medical staff can provide important clues for surgical workflow analysis. For that purpose, we propose an algor ...

Planck 2013 results. I. Overview of products and scientific results

Slobodan Ilic, Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli, Jason Douglas McEwen, Jan Hamann, Ji Hyun Kim, Xin Chen

The European Space Agency's Planck satellite, dedicated to studying the early Universe and its subsequent evolution, was launched 14 May 2009 and has been scanning the microwave and submillimetre sky continuously since 12 August 2009. In March 2013, ESA an ...

Planck 2013 results. XIX. The integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect

Slobodan Ilic, Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

Based on cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps from the 2013 Planck Mission data release, this paper presents the detection of the integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect, that is, the correlation between the CMB and large-scale evolving gravitational potenti ...

Multiple Human Pose Estimation with Temporally Consistent 3D Pictorial Structures

Pascal Fua, Slobodan Ilic, Vasileios Belagiannis, Xinchao Wang

Multiple human 3D pose estimation from multiple camera views is a challenging task in unconstrained environments. Each individual has to be matched across each view and then the body pose has to be estimated. Additionally, the body pose of every individual ...

Gradient Response Maps for Real-Time Detection of Textureless Objects

Pascal Fua, Slobodan Ilic, Vincent Lepetit

We present a method for real-time 3D object instance detection that does not require a time-consuming training stage, and can handle untextured objects. At its core, our approach is a novel image representation for template matching designed to be robust t ...

Surface Deformation Models for Non-Rigid 3--D Shape Recovery

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Julien Pilet, Slobodan Ilic

3--D detection and shape recovery of a non-rigid surface from video sequences require deformation models to effectively take advantage of potentially noisy image data. Here we introduce an approach to creating such models for deformable 3--D surfaces. We e ...

Implicit Meshes for Effective Silhouette Handling

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Slobodan Ilic

Using silhouettes in uncontrolled environments typically requires handling occlusions as well as changing or cluttered backgrounds, which limits the applicability of most silhouette based methods. For the purpose of 3--D shape modeling, we show that repres ...

Implicit Meshes for Surface Reconstruction

Pascal Fua, Slobodan Ilic

Deformable 3--D models are used extensively in Computer Graphics and Computer Vision for Visualization, Animation and Modeling. They can be represented either as traditional explicit surfaces, such as triangulated meshes, or as implicit surfaces. Explicit ...

Implicit meshes : unifying implicit and explicit surface representations for 3D reconstruction and tracking

Slobodan Ilic

This thesis proposes novel ways both to represent the static surfaces, and to parameterize their deformations. This can be used both by automated algorithms for efficient 3–D shape reconstruction, and by graphics designers for editing and animation. Deform ...
