We introduce a diffusion-based framework that performs aligned novel view image and geometry generation via a warping-and-inpainting methodology. Unlike prior methods that require dense posed images or pose-embedded generative models…
Geometric estimation is required for scene understanding and analysis in panoramic 360{\deg} images. Current methods usually predict a single feature, such as depth or surface normal. These methods can lack robustness, especially when…
Human visual perception offers valuable insights for understanding computational principles of motion-based scene interpretation. Humans robustly detect and segment moving entities that constitute independently moveable chunks of matter,…
A wide choice of cinematic lenses enables motion-picture creators to adapt image visual-appearance to their creative vision. Such choice does not exist in the realm of real-time computer graphics, where only one type of perspective…
Geometric estimation including depth estimation and scene reconstruction is a crucial technique for colonoscopy which can provide surgeons with 3D spatial perception and navigation. However, geometric ground truth in colonoscopy is…
Faces-classes of grains, often referred to as topological features, largely dictate the evolution of polycrystalline microstructures during grain growth. Realising these topological features is generally an arduous task, often demanding…
Fractals are geometric shapes that can display complex and self-similar patterns found in nature (e.g., clouds and plants). Recent works in visual recognition have leveraged this property to create random fractal images for model…
We propose a template matching method for the detection of 2D image objects that are characterized by orientation patterns. Our method is based on data representations via orientation scores, which are functions on the space of positions…
We tackle the task of synthesizing novel views of an object given a few input images and associated camera viewpoints. Our work is inspired by recent 'geometry-free' approaches where multi-view images are encoded as a (global) set-latent…
Deepfake detection refers to detecting artificially generated or edited faces in images or videos, which plays an essential role in visual information security. Despite promising progress in recent years, Deepfake detection remains a…

The perception of color is one of the most important aspects of human vision. From an evolutionary perspective, the accurate perception of color is crucial to distinguishing friend from foe, and food from fatal poison. As a result, humans…
Gait recognition, referring to the identification of individuals based on the manner in which they walk, can be very challenging due to the variations in the viewpoint of the camera and the appearance of individuals. Current methods for…
Both a good understanding of geometrical concepts and a broad familiarity with objects lead to our excellent perception of moving objects. The human ability to detect and segment moving objects works in the presence of multiple objects,…
