Various director configurations of a nematic liquid crystal, confined in a toroidal volume and subject to an external magnetic field, were evaluated numerically by performing finite element calculations in three dimensions. The equilibrium…
We present a method for jointly training the estimation of depth, ego-motion, and a dense 3D translation field of objects relative to the scene, with monocular photometric consistency being the sole source of supervision. We show that this…
Vector field guided path following (VF-PF) algorithms are fundamental in robot navigation tasks, but may not deliver the desirable performance when robots encounter singular points where the vector field becomes zero. The existence of…
