In this technical note, we derive a closed-form expression for the affine transformation mapping local image patches between two calibrated views. We show that the transformation is a function of the relative camera pose, the image…

We study contraction conditions for an iterated function system of continuous maps on a metric space which are chosen randomly, identically and independently. We investigate metric changes, preserving the topological structure of the space,…

We have previously demonstrated that a switched affine system is stabilisable independently of the initial condition, i.e. there exists an asymptotically stabilising switching function which is the same for all initial conditions, if and…

This is a review with examples concerning the concepts of affine (in particular, constant and linear) vector fields and fundamental vector fields on a manifold. The affine, linear and constant vector fields on a manifold are shown to be in…

Recent deep learning models increasingly rely on depth without structural guarantees on the validity of intermediate representations, rendering early stopping and adaptive computation ill-posed. We address this limitation by formulating a…

In this paper we follow up the study of 'complex complex landscapes,' rugged landscapes of many complex variables. Unlike real landscapes, the classification of saddles by index is trivial. Instead, the spectrum of fluctuations at…
