3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has recently emerged as a fast, high-quality method for novel view synthesis (NVS). However, its use of low-degree spherical harmonics limits its ability to capture spatially varying color and view-dependent…
Secret sharing is a cryptographic discipline in which the goal is to distribute information about a secret over a set of participants in such a way that only specific authorized combinations of participants together can reconstruct the…
We propose a practical framework to address the problem of privacy-aware image sharing in large-scale setups. We argue that, while compactness is always desired at scale, this need is more severe when trying to furthermore protect the…

Secret sharing is an important building block in cryptography. All explicitly defined secret sharing schemes with known exact complexity bounds are multi-linear, thus are closely related to linear codes. The dual of such a linear scheme, in…
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have made great success in image inpainting yet still have difficulties tackling large missing regions. In contrast, iterative probabilistic algorithms, such as autoregressive and denoising diffusion…
Threshold secret sharing schemes do not prevent any malicious behavior of the dealer or shareholders and so we need verifiable secret sharing, to detect and identify the cheaters, to achieve fair reconstruction of a secret. The problem of…
Secret sharing allows split/distributed control over the secret (e.g. master key). Verifiable secret sharing (VSS) is the secret sharing extended by verification capacity. Usually verification comes at the price. We propose "free lunch",…

Thresholding converts a greyscale image into a binary image, and is thus often a necessary segmentation step in image processing. For a human viewer however, thresholding usually has a negative impact on the legibility of document images.…
Secret Sharing Schemes (SSS) are methods for distributing a secret among a set of participants. One of the first Secret Sharing Schemes was proposed by M. Mignotte, based on the Chinese remainder theorem over the ring of integers. In this…
