Almost all work to understand Earth's subsurface on a large scale relies on the interpretation of seismic surveys by experts who segment the survey (usually a cube) into layers; a process that is very time demanding. In this paper, we…

Understanding terrain topology at long-range is crucial for the success of off-road robotic missions, especially when navigating at high-speeds. LiDAR sensors, which are currently heavily relied upon for geometric mapping, provide sparse…

We propose a method to reconstruct, complete and semantically label a 3D scene from a single input depth image. We improve the accuracy of the regressed semantic 3D maps by a novel architecture based on adversarial learning. In particular,…

Existing semantic segmentation approaches either aim to improve the object's inner consistency by modeling the global context, or refine objects detail along their boundaries by multi-scale feature fusion. In this paper, a new paradigm for…

Many works in the recent literature introduce semantic mapping methods that use CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks) to recognize semantic properties in images. The types of properties (eg.: room size, place category, and objects) and their…

We propose spatially-adaptive normalization, a simple but effective layer for synthesizing photorealistic images given an input semantic layout. Previous methods directly feed the semantic layout as input to the deep network, which is then…

Semantic segmentation for robotic systems can enable a wide range of applications, from self-driving cars and augmented reality systems to domestic robots. We argue that a spherical representation is a natural one for egocentric…

The visual entities in cross-view images exhibit drastic domain changes due to the difference in viewpoints each set of images is captured from. Existing state-of-the-art methods address the problem by learning view-invariant descriptors…
