Recently, Dynamic Vision Sensors (DVSs) sparked a lot of interest due to their inherent advantages over conventional RGB cameras. These advantages include a low latency, a high dynamic range and a low energy consumption. Nevertheless, the…
Recent surveys monitoring millions of light curves of resolved stars in the LMC have discovered several microlensing events. Unresolved stars could however significantly contribute to the microlensing rate towards the LMC. Monitoring…
Event cameras like Dynamic Vision Sensors (DVS) report micro-timed brightness changes instead of full frames, offering low latency, high dynamic range, and motion robustness. DVS-PedX (Dynamic Vision Sensor Pedestrian eXploration) is a…
This paper lays the foundation of a theory for bias tuning in neuromorphic cameras, a novel sensing technology also known as "event cameras". We begin by formulating the high-level effect of the sensitivity biases on the camera's event rate…
We introduce a novel method to automatically adjust camera exposure for image processing and computer vision applications on mobile robot platforms. Because most image processing algorithms rely heavily on low-level image features that are…
As vision based perception methods are usually built on the normal light assumption, there will be a serious safety issue when deploying them into low light environments. Recently, deep learning based methods have been proposed to enhance…
Real-world low-light images captured by imaging devices suffer from poor visibility and require a domain-specific enhancement to produce artifact-free outputs that reveal details. In this paper, we propose an unpaired low-light image…
A minimalist vision system uses the smallest number of pixels needed to solve a vision task. While traditional cameras use a large grid of square pixels, a minimalist camera uses freeform pixels that can take on arbitrary shapes to increase…
We study the nano- and micro-structures that increase the optical efficiency of the CMOS image pixels in visible and infrared. We consider the difference between the micro-holes at the pixels' bottom and the top and the holes that are…
Optical phased arrays are of strong interest for beam steering in telecom and LIDAR applications. A phased array ideally requires that the field produced by each element in the array (a pixel) is fully controllable in phase and amplitude…
We demonstrated a CMOS imaging system that adapts each pixel's exposure and sampling rate to capture high dynamic range (HDR) videos. The system consist of a custom designed image sensor with pixel-wise exposure configurability and a…
Recognizing, assessing, countering, and mitigating the biases of different nature from heterogeneous sources is a critical problem in designing a cognitive Decision Support System (DSS). An example of such a system is a cognitive…
Biologically inspired event-based vision sensors (EVS) are growing in popularity due to performance benefits including ultra-low power consumption, high dynamic range, data sparsity, and fast temporal response. They efficiently encode…
In practice, and especially when training deep neural networks, visual recognition rules are often learned based on various sources of information. On the other hand, the recent deployment of facial recognition systems with uneven…
While the LED panels used in virtual production systems can display vibrant imagery with a wide color gamut, they produce problematic color shifts when used as lighting due to their peaky spectral output from narrow-band red, green, and…
Event-based vision sensors produce an asynchronous stream of events which are triggered when the pixel intensity variation exceeds a predefined threshold. Such sensors offer significant advantages, including reduced data redundancy,…
Variable-bitrate video streaming is ubiquitous in video surveillance and CCTV, enabling high-quality video streaming while conserving network bandwidth. However, as the name suggests, variable-bitrate IP cameras can generate sharp traffic…
Based on the observation that application phases exhibit varying degrees of sensitivity to noise (i.e., accuracy loss) in computation during execution, this paper explores how Dynamic Precision Scaling (DPS) can maximize power efficiency by…
We introduce Delta Denoising Score (DDS), a novel scoring function for text-based image editing that guides minimal modifications of an input image towards the content described in a target prompt. DDS leverages the rich generative prior of…
Event-based camera is a bio-inspired vision sensor that records intensity changes (called event) asynchronously in each pixel. As an instance of event-based camera, Dynamic and Active-pixel Vision Sensor (DAVIS) combines a standard camera…
