Super-Resolution from Unregistered and Totally Aliased Signals Using Subspace Methods

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Patrick Vandewalle

In many applications, the sampling frequency is limited by the physical characteristics of the components: the pixel pitch, the rate of the A/D converter, etc. A low-pass filter is then often applied before the sampling operation to avoid aliasing. However ...

Bits from Photons: Oversampled Image Acquisition Using Binary Poisson Statistics

Martin Vetterli, Yue Lu, Luciano Sbaiz, Feng Yang

We study a new image sensor that is reminiscent of traditional photographic film. Each pixel in the sensor has a binary response, giving only a one-bit quantized measurement of the local light intensity. To analyze its performance, we formulate the oversam ...

Sound Field Analysis Along a Circle and its Application to HRTF Interpolation

Martin Vetterli, Christof Faller, Luciano Sbaiz, Thibaut Ajdler

The sampling and interpolation of a sound field in two and three dimensions along a circle is discussed. The Fourier domain representation of the sound field is used, and an angular sampling theorem is developed for the sampling of the sound field along a ...

Higher Order SVD Analysis for Dynamic Texture Synthesis

Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz, Roberto Costantini

Videos representing flames, water, smoke, etc. are often defined as dynamic textures: "textures" because they are characterized by redundant repetition of a pattern and "dynamic" because this repetition is also in time and not only in space. Dynamic textur ...

Signal Reconstruction from Multiple Unregistered Sets of Samples using Groebner Bases

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Patrick Vandewalle

We present a new method for signal reconstruction from multiple sets of samples with unknown offsets. We rewrite the reconstruction problem as a set of polynomial equations in the unknown signal parameters and the offsets between the sets of samples. Then, ...

The Gigavision Camera

Edoardo Charbon, Martin Vetterli, Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz, Feng Yang

We propose a new image device called gigavision camera. The main differences between a conventional and a gigavision camera are that the pixels of the gigavision camera are binary and orders of magnitude smaller. A gigavision camera can be built using stan ...

Acoustic tomography for scalar and vector fields: theory and application to temperature and wind estimation

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Ivana Jovanovic

Acoustic tomography is a type of inverse problem. The idea of estimating physical quantities that influence sound propagation by measuring the parameters of propagation has proven to be successful in many practical domains, including temperature and wind e ...

On a stochastic version of the plenacoustic function

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Andrea Ridolfi, Thibaut Ajdler

In this paper, we model a spatially varying channel where a source is moving along a random trajectory with respect to a fixed re- ceiver. The aim is to compute the power spectral density corre- sponding to the channel impulse response as a function of tem ...

Image Reconstruction in the Gigavision Camera

Edoardo Charbon, Martin Vetterli, Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz, Feng Yang

Recently we have proposed a new image device called the gigavision camera. The main feature of this camera is that the pixels have a binary response. The response function of a gigavision sensor is non-linear and similar to a logarithmic function, which ma ...

Dynamic Texture Analysis and Synthesis using Tensor Decomposition

Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz, Roberto Costantini

Dynamic textures are sequences of images showing temporal regularity, such as smoke, flames, flowing water, or moving grass. Despite being a multidimensional signal, existing models reshape the dynamic texture into a 2D signal for analysis. In this article ...

Dynamic Texture Synthesis: Compact Models Based on Luminance -Chrominance Color Representation

Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz, Roberto Costantini

Dynamic textures are sequences of images showing temporal regularity. Examples can be found in videos representing smoke, flames, ocean waves, wind-shaken forests, etc. Dynamic texture modelling and synthesis has usually been done considering RGB color ima ...

Tomographic approach for parametric estimation of local diffusive sources and application to heat diffusion

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Ivana Jovanovic

We consider localized instantaneous sources that reside in a 2D dif- fusive environment. Our goal is to reconstruct the induced field from the measurements obtained by distributed sensors. Although the field is non-bandlimited, we capitalize on the fact th ...

Head Related Transfer Functions Interpolation Considering Acoustics

Martin Vetterli, Christof Faller, Luciano Sbaiz, Thibaut Ajdler

We are proposing an interpolation technique for head related transfer functions (HRTFs). For deriving the algorithm we study the dual problem where sound is emitted from the listener’s ear and the generated sound field is recorded along a circular array of ...

Efficient and Stable Acoustic Tomography Using Sparse Reconstruction Methods

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Ali Hormati, Ivana Jovanovic

We study an acoustic tomography problem and propose a new inversion technique based on sparsity. Acoustic tomography observes the parameters of the medium that influence the speed of sound propagation. In the human body, the parameters that mostly influenc ...

Super-Resolution from Highly Undersampled Images

Martin Vetterli, Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz, Patrick Vandewalle

Aliasing artifacts in images are visually very disturbing. Therefore, most imaging devices apply a low-pass filter before sampling. This removes all aliasing from the image, but it also creates a blurred image. Actually, all the image information above hal ...

Image sensor having nonlinear response

Edoardo Charbon, Martin Vetterli, Sabine Süsstrunk, Luciano Sbaiz

In previously known imaging devices as in still and motion cameras, for example, image sensor signal response typically is linear as a function of intensity of incident light. Desirably, however, akin to the response of the human eye, response is sought to ...

Spatio-Temporal Sampling and Distributed Compression of the Sound Field

Martin Vetterli, Emre Telatar, Olivier Roy, Luciano Sbaiz, Thibaut Ajdler, Robert Konsbruck

We investigate how the sound field induced by an acoustic event evolves over space and time. The characteristics of its bidimensional Fourier spectrum are analyzed and spatio-temporal sampling results using an array of microphones are provided for differen ...

Room impulse responses measurement using a moving microphone

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Thibaut Ajdler

In this paper, we present a technique to record a large set of room impulse responses using a microphone moving along a tra jectory. The technique processes the signal recorded by the microphone to reconstruct the signals that would have been recorded at a ...

Acoustic tomography for estimating temperature and wind flow

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Ivana Jovanovic

We consider the problem of reconstructing superimposed temperature and wind flow fields from acoustic measurements. A new technique based solely on acoustic wave propagation is presented. In contrast to the usual straight ray assumption, a bent ray model i ...

Groebner Basis Methods for Multichannel Sampling with Unknown Offsets

Martin Vetterli, Luciano Sbaiz, Patrick Vandewalle

In multichannel sampling, several sets of sub-Nyquist sampled signal values are acquired. The offsets between the sets are unknown, and have to be resolved, just like the parameters of the signal itself. This problem is nonlinear in the offsets, but linear ...
