Benchmarks, such as COCO, play a crucial role in object detection. However, existing benchmarks are insufficient in scale variation, and their protocols are inadequate for fair comparison. In this paper, we introduce the Universal-Scale…
One of the major challenges for collective intelligence is inconsistency, which is unavoidable whenever subjective assessments are involved. Pairwise comparisons allow one to represent such subjective assessments and to process them by…
A design methodology and synthesis equations are described for lumped-element filter prototypes having low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, or band-stop characteristics with theoretically perfect input- and output-match at all frequencies. Such…
The measurement of magnitudes with different filters in photometric surveys gives access to cosmological distances and parameters. However, for current and future large surveys like the ZTF, DES, HSC or LSST, the photometric calibration…
It is a common practice to exploit pyramidal feature representation to tackle the problem of scale variation in object instances. However, most of them still predict the objects in a certain range of scales based solely or mainly on a…
Regression evaluation has been performed for decades. Some metrics have been identified to be robust against shifting and scaling of the data but considering the different distributions of data is much more difficult to address (imbalance…
We consider the problem of object recognition in 3D using an ensemble of attribute-based classifiers. We propose two new concepts to improve classification in practical situations, and show their implementation in an approach implemented…
A method for the detection of changes in the expectation in univariate sequences is provided. Moving sum processes are studied. These rely on the selection of a tuning bandwidth. Here, a framework to overcome bandwidth selection is…
General-purpose object-detection algorithms often dismiss the fine structure of detected objects. This can be traced back to how their proposed regions are evaluated. Our goal is to renegotiate the trade-off between the generality of these…
A major bottleneck of pedestrian detection lies on the sharp performance deterioration in the presence of small-size pedestrians that are relatively far from the camera. Motivated by the observation that pedestrians of disparate spatial…
Many man-made objects are characterised by a shape that is symmetric along one or more planar directions. Estimating the location and orientation of such symmetry planes can aid many tasks such as estimating the overall orientation of an…
This paper proposes a new method for determining similarity and anomalies between time series, most practically effective in large collections of (likely related) time series, by measuring distances between structural breaks within such a…
We seek a practical method for establishing dense correspondences between two images with similar content, but possibly different 3D scenes. One of the challenges in designing such a system is the local scale differences of objects…
This paper examines performance evaluation criteria for basic vision tasks involving sets of objects namely, object detection, instance-level segmentation and multi-object tracking. The rankings of algorithms by an existing criterion can…
We propose a new, efficient multi-scale method to decompose a map (or signal in general) into components maps that contain structures of different sizes. In the widely-used wave transform, artifacts containing negative values arise around…
A new model-based image adjustment for the enhancement of multi-resolution image fusion or pansharpening is proposed. Such image adjustment is needed for most pansharpening methods using panchromatic band and/or intensity image (calculated…
This paper is concerned with the channel estimation problem in millimetre wave (MMW) wireless systems with large antenna arrays. By exploiting the sparse nature of the MMW channel, we present an efficient estimation algorithm based on a…
Channel charting is a data-driven baseband processing technique consisting in applying self-supervised machine learning techniques to channel state information (CSI), with the objective of reducing the dimension of the data and extracting…
In a typical multi-standard military communication receiver, fast and reliable spectrum sensing unit is required to extract the information of multiple channels (frequency bands) present in a wideband input signal. In this paper, an energy…
In this work we extend our previous studies on the quantum transfer of a particle through a finite-bandwidth continuum under frequent detections, by replacing the assumed frequent measurements with a genuine continuous monitoring by a…
