Quantifying the Error of Light Transport Algorithms

Wenzel Alban Jakob

This paper proposes a new methodology for measuring the error of unbiased physically based rendering algorithms. The current state of the art includes mean squared error (MSE) based metrics and visual comparisons of equal-time renderings of competing algor ...

Development of topological tools for the analysis of biological data

Rachel Marcone

There is a growing need for unbiased clustering algorithms, ideally automated to analyze complex data sets. Topological data analysis (TDA) has been used to approach this problem. This recent field of mathematics discerns characteristic features of a space ...

An Application of Extreme Value Theory to Learning Analytics: Predicting Collaboration Outcome from Eye-tracking Data

Kshitij Sharma, Valérie Chavez

The statistics used in education research are based on central trends such as the mean or standard deviation, discarding outliers. This paper adopts another viewpoint that has emerged in Statistics, called the Extreme Value Theory (EVT). EVT claims that th ...

A robust method for inverse transport modelling of atmospheric emissions using blind outlier detection

Martin Vetterli, Benjamin Bejar Haro, Marta Martinez-Camara

Emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere are a serious environmental concern. In order to understand and predict their effects, it is necessary to estimate the exact quantity and timing of the emissions, from sensor measurements taken at differe ...

Predicting Fish Acute Toxicity Using a Fish Gill Cell Line-Based Toxicity Assay

Kristin Schirmer

The OECD test guideline 203 for determination of fish acute toxicity requires substantial numbers of fish and uses death as an apical end point. One potential alternative are fish cell lines; however, several studies indicated that these appear up to sever ...

Factored Facade Acquisition using Symmetric Line Arrangements

Mark Pauly, Hao Li, Duygu Ceylan

We introduce a novel framework for image-based 3D reconstruction of urban buildings based on symmetry priors. Starting from image-level edges, we generate a sparse and approximate set of consistent 3D lines. These lines are then used to simultaneously dete ...
