Bits from Photons : Oversampled Binary Image Acquisition

The trends in the design of image sensors are to build sensors with low noise, high sensitivity, high dynamic range, and small pixel size. How can we benefit from pixels with small size and high sensitivity? In this dissertation, we study a new image senso ...

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 ...

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 ...

Super-resolution from unregistered aliased images with unknown scalings and shifts

Martin Vetterli, Feng Yang

We consider the problem of super-resolution from unregistered aliased images with unknown spatial scaling factors and shifts. Due to the limitation of pixel size in the image sensor, the sampling rate for each image is lower than the Nyquist rate of the sc ...

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 ...

Oversampled Noisy Binary Image Sensor

Martin Vetterli, Feng Yang

We study the oversampled binary image sensor in [1] under noisy scenario. The binary image sensor is similar to traditional photographic film with pixel value equal to "0" or "1". The potential application of the oversampled binary image sensor is high dyn ...

How is the Weather: Automatic Inference from Images

Martin Vetterli, Guillermo Barrenetxea Kobas, Albrecht Johannes Lindner, Feng Yang, Zichong Chen

Low-cost monitoring cameras/webcams provide unique visual information. To take advantage of the vast image dataset captured by a typical webcam, we consider the problem of retrieving weather information from a database of still images. The task is to autom ...

High-Stable Lead-Free Solar Cells Achieved by Surface Reconstruction of Quasi-2D Tin-Based Perovskites

Michael Saliba, Antonio Abate, Feng Yang, Guixiang Li

Tin halide perovskites are an appealing alternative to lead perovskites. However, owing to the lower redox potential of Sn(II)/Sn(IV), particularly under the presence of oxygen and water, the accumulation of Sn(IV) at the surface layer will negatively impa ...

A method and apparatus for image acquisition and conversion

Martin Vetterli, Yue Lu, Feng Yang

Method for image acquisition and conversion comprising: low-pass filtering an image by an acquisition lens, producing from said low-pass filtered image an up-sampled image with a first resolution with an up-sampling factor using a image sensor, converting ...
