Seamless situational awareness provided by modern radar systems relies on effective methods for multiobject tracking (MOT). This paper presents a graph-based Bayesian method for nonlinear and high-dimensional MOT problems that embeds…
The collective behavior of levitated particles in a weakly-ionized plasma (dusty plasma) has raised significant scientific interest. This is due to the complex array of forces acting on the particles, and their potential to act as in-situ…
Particle tracking in turbulent flows is fundamental to the study of the transport of tracers, inertial particles or even active objects in space and time, i.e. the Lagrangian frame of reference. It provides experimental tests of theoretical…
We discuss the use of 3D printing to physically visualize (materialize) fluid flow structures. Such 3D models can serve as a refreshing hands-on means to gain deeper physical insights into the formation of complex coherent structures in…
Within a (3+1)D viscous hydrodynamic model we compute anisotropic flow in small system collisions as performed at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and measured by the STAR and PHENIX Collaborations. We emphasize the importance of the…
Many colloidal systems display very non-Newtonian and solid-like behaviour when concentrated, a striking feature being the apparition of a yield stress. After recalling some basics about the interactions between colloidal particles, I…
We tackle the problem of estimating optical flow from a monocular camera in the context of autonomous driving. We build on the observation that the scene is typically composed of a static background, as well as a relatively small number of…

In High Energy Physics experiments Particle Flow (PFlow) algorithms are designed to provide an optimal reconstruction of the nature and kinematic properties of the particles produced within the detector acceptance during collisions. At the…
We use confocal microscopy to study the motions of particles in concentrated colloidal systems. Near the glass transition, diffusive motion is inhibited, as particles spend time trapped in transient ``cages'' formed by neighboring…
To acquire the ability to numerically study the rheology of particulate two-phase flows that lack scale separation, we present a general method to average or coarse-grain the equations of motion of a mixture of a continuous fluid of…
We study the flow of concentrated hard-sphere colloidal suspensions along smooth, non-stick walls using cone-plate rheometry and simultaneous confocal microscopy. In the glass regime, the global flow shows a transition from Herschel-Bulkley…
The behaviour of dense assemblies of dry grains submitted to continuous shear deformation has been the subject of many experiments and discrete particle simulations. This paper is a collective work carried out among the French research…
Gels in soft-matter systems are an important nonergodic state of matter. We study a colloid-polymer mixture which is quenched by increasing the polymer concentration, from a fluid to a gel. Using confocal microscopy, we study both the…
Using a novel bi-axial confocal rheoscope, we investigate the structure and rheology of sheared colloidal suspensions under confinement. Consistent with previous work [X. Cheng \textit{et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A.}, 2011, 109,…
In recent years, the LiDAR images, as a 2D compact representation of 3D LiDAR point clouds, are widely applied in various tasks, e.g., 3D semantic segmentation, LiDAR point cloud compression (PCC). Among these works, the optical flow…
The field of multi-object tracking has recently seen a renewed interest in the good old schema of tracking-by-detection, as its simplicity and strong priors spare it from the complex design and painful babysitting of tracking-by-attention…
Granular materials do not flow homogeneously like fluids when submitted to external stress,but often form rigid regions that are separated by narrow shear bands where the material yields and flows. This shear localization impacts their…

The increasing use of microfluidics in industrial, biomedical, and clinical applications requires a more and more precise control of the microfluidic flows and suspended particles or cells. This leads to higher demands in three-dimensional…
