Burst Vision Using Single-Photon Cameras

Edoardo Charbon, Paul Mos, Mohit Gupta

Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) are novel image sensors that record the arrival of individual photons at extremely high temporal resolution. In the past, they were only available as single pixels or small-format arrays, for various active imaging ap ...

Self-supervised Segmentation via Background Inpainting

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Isinsu Katircioglu, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Victor Constantin

While supervised object detection and segmentation methods achieve impressive accuracy, they generalize poorly to images whose appearance significantly differs from the data they have been trained on. To address this when annotating data is prohibitively e ...

TopoAL: An Adversarial Learning Approach for Topology-Aware Road Segmentation

Pascal Fua, Mateusz Kozinski, Leonardo Citraro, Subeesh Vasu

Most state-of-the-art approaches to road extraction from aerial images rely on a CNN trained to label road pixels as foreground and remainder of the image as background. The CNN is usually trained by minimizing pixel-wise losses, which is less than ideal t ...

Automatic Segmentation of Nuclei in Histopathology Images using Encoding-Decoding Convolutional Neural Networks

Pascal Frossard, Beril Besbinar, Deniz Mercadier

Accurate and fast segmentation of nuclei in histopathological images plays a crucial role in cancer research for detection and grading, as well as personal treatment. Despite the important efforts, current algorithms are still suboptimal in terms of speed, ...

Probabilistic Atlases to Enforce Topological Constraints

Pascal Fua, Graham Knott, Pamuditha Udaranga Wickramasinghe

Probabilistic atlases (PAs) have long been used in standard segmentation approaches and, more recently, in conjunction with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). However, their use has been restricted to relatively standardized structures such as the brain ...

SROBB: Targeted Perceptual Loss for Single Image Super-Resolution

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Mohammad Saeed Rad, Hazim Kemal Ekenel

By benefiting from perceptual losses, recent studies have improved significantly the performance of the super-resolution task, where a high-resolution image is resolved from its low-resolution counterpart. Although such objective functions generate near-ph ...

Scale-Adaptive Superpixels

Pascal Fua, Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Pablo Marquez Neila

Size uniformity is one of the prominent features of superpixels. However, size uniformity rarely conforms to the varying content of an image. The chosen size of the superpixels therefore represents a compromise - how to obtain the fewest superpixels withou ...
