How Far Can a 1-Pixel Camera Go? Solving Vision Tasks Using Photoreceptors and Computationally Designed Visual Morphology

Jiawei Fu, Isabella Lucile Yu, Amir Roshan Zamir, Andrei Atanov, Rishubh Singh

A de facto standard approach in solving computer vision tasks is to use a common high-resolution camera and choose its placement on an agent based on human intuition. On the other hand, extremely simple and well-designed visual sensors found throughout nat ...

The effect of smooth parametrizations on nonconvex optimization landscapes

Nicolas Boumal

We develop new tools to study landscapes in nonconvex optimization. Given one optimization problem, we pair it with another by smoothly parametrizing the domain. This is either for practical purposes (e.g., to use smooth optimization algorithms with good g ...
