Silicon CMOS and InGaAs(P)/InP SPADs for NIR/SWIR detection

Utku Karaca

Applications demanding imaging at low-light conditions at near-infrared (NIR) and short-wave infrared (SWIR) wavelengths, such as quantum information science, biophotonics, space imaging, and light detection and ranging (LiDAR), have accelerated the develo ...

Single-cell biology: what does the future hold?

Bart Deplancke

In this Editorial, our Chief Editor and members of our Advisory Editorial Board discuss recent breakthroughs, current challenges, and emerging opportunities in single-cell biology and share their vision of "where the field is headed." ...

Specific Gestalt principles cannot explain (un)crowding

Michael Herzog, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Einat Rashal

The standard physiological model has serious problems accounting for many aspects of vision, particularly when stimulus configurations become slightly more complex than the ones classically used, e.g., configurations of Gabors rather than only one or a few ...

Prompt–RSVQA: Prompting visual context to a language model for Remote Sensing Visual Question Answering

Devis Tuia, Christel Marie Tartini-Chappuis, Valérie Zermatten

Remote sensing visual question answering (RQA) was recently proposed with the aim of interfacing natural language and vision to ease the access of information contained in Earth Observation data for a wide audience, which is granted by simple questions in ...

Advances in visual prostheses: engineering and biological challenges

Diego Ghezzi, Eleonora Borda

Vision is an extraordinary sense through which we can appreciate the beauty of the world we live in, gain invaluable knowledge and communicate with others using visual expression and arts. On the contrary, blindness is a threatening medical condition disru ...

The irreducibility of vision: Gestalt, crowding and the fundamentals of vision

Michael Herzog

What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just s ...

Heat recovery potential from ventilated passive and active facades

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

A ventilated air-space behind external claddings can potentially affect the thermal performance of the entire building structure. In particular, in the Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) facades, ventilated cavities are typically present between the P ...

Recent Advances in Piezoelectric Materials for Electromechanical Transducer Applications

Dragan Damjanovic

Ferroelectricity has made a huge impact on science and technology since Joseph Valasek (then a Ph.D. student at the University of Minnesota) discovered it in 1920, a little longer than 100 years ago. Whereas Dr. Valasek's original research was motivated by ...

Crowding and the importance of grouping and segmentation processes in human vision

Alban Bornet

Human vision has evolved to make sense of a world in which elements almost never appear in isolation. Surprisingly, the recognition of an element in a visual scene is strongly limited by the presence of other nearby elements, a phenomenon known as visual c ...

Pedestrian intention prediction: A convolutional bottom-up multi-task approach

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan

The ability to predict pedestrian behaviour is crucial for road safety, traffic management systems, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), and more broadly autonomous vehicles. We present a vision-based system that simultaneously locates where pedestri ...

Homogeneous light stimulation of melanopsin and cones with a Maxwellian view device for the human eye

Patrick Robert Flückiger, Gilles Evéquoz

We designed and tested a device to stimulate specifically one photoreceptor type, or a combination of some of them, of the human eye by using up to six primaries. The device produces a homogeneous light field over 40 degrees which is projected onto the ret ...

Gaussian Process Regression for Materials and Molecules

Michele Ceriotti, David Mark Wilkins

We provide an introduction to Gaussian process regression (GPR) machinelearning methods in computational materials science and chemistry. The focus of the present review is on the regression of atomistic properties: in particular, on the construction of in ...

Deep Models and Shortwave Infrared Information to Detect Face Presentation Attacks

Sébastien Marcel, Zohreh Mostaani

This paper addresses the problem of face presentation attack detection using different image modalities. In particular, the usage of short wave infrared (SWIR) imaging is considered. Face presentation attack detection is performed using recent models based ...

Crowding and the Architecture of the Visual System

Adrien Christophe Doerig

Classically, vision is seen as a cascade of local, feedforward computations. This framework has been tremendously successful, inspiring a wide range of ground-breaking findings in neuroscience and computer vision. Recently, feedforward Convolutional Neural ...

Cathodoluminescent screen imaging system for seeded blob detection in toroidal plasma experiment

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Paul Bowen, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Fabian Manke, Carlos Morais, Paolo Micheletti

We designed and built a diagnostic based on a cathodoluminescent screen for the detection of turbulent plasma structures with high spatial resolution. The screen is coated with a low threshold energy cathodoluminescent powder that emits light when exposed ...

Shrinking Bouma's window: Visual crowding in dense displays

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet

In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. In the traditional feedforward framework of vision, only elements within Bouma’s window interfere with the target and adding more elements always leads to stronger crowdin ...

Active Near-Infrared Imaging for Spatio-Temporal Monitoring of a Solid Oxide Cell in Operation

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Guillaume Jeanmonod

The characterization of solid oxide cells (SOCs) relies mainly on direct-current (DC) and alternating-current (AC) methods that provide only average surface electro-chemical responses. As such, the spatial distribution is not well captured and the complexi ...
