Towards the Use of Social Interaction Conventions as Prior for Gaze Model Adaptation

Jean-Marc Odobez, Yu Yu, Rémy Alain Siegfried

Gaze is an important non-verbal cue involved in many facets of social interactions like communication, attentiveness or attitudes. Nevertheless, extracting gaze directions visually and remotely usually suffers large errors because of low resolution images, ...

Bound and Conquer : Properties, Algorithms, and Applications of Multi-Camera Imaging

Alireza Ghasemi

Using more than one camera to capture a scene has a long history in photography and the imaging industry. Inspired by how the human eye operates, researchers and industrial companies have always tried to compensate for the 3-D information lost during the c ...

Scaling effect and its impact on wavelength-scale microlenses

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We revisit the scaling laws in micro-optical systems to highlight new phenomena arising beyond a conventional optical regime, especially when the size of the system approaches to the operational wavelength. Our goal is to visualize the impact of the scalin ...

HOLiCOW - IV. Lens mass model of HE 0435-1223 and blind measurement of its time-delay distance for cosmology

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin

Strong gravitational lenses with measured time delays between the multiple images allow a direct measurement of the time-delay distance to the lens, and thus a measure of cosmological parameters, particularly the Hubble constant, H-0. We present a blind le ...

H0LiCOW-II. Spectroscopic survey and galaxy-group identification of the strong gravitational lens system HE 0435-1223

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Vivien François Bonvin, Malte Tewes

Galaxies located in the environment or along the line of sight towards gravitational lenses can significantly affect lensing observables, and can lead to systematic errors on the measurement of H-0 from the time-delay technique. We present the results of a ...

Vision-Based Sense and Avoid Algorithms for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Steven Adriaan Roelofsen

The field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, is rapidly growing, both in terms of size and of number of applications. Civil applications range from mapping, inspection, search and rescue, taking aerial footage, to art show, entertain ...

H0LiCOW-I. H-0 Lenses in COSMOGRAIL's Wellspring: program overview

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Vivien François Bonvin, Malte Tewes, Olga Tihhonova

Strong gravitational lens systems with time delays between the multiple images allow measurements of time-delay distances, which are primarily sensitive to the Hubble constant that is key to probing dark energy, neutrino physics and the spatial curvature o ...

Adamts18 deletion results in distinct developmental defects and provides a model for congenital disorders of lens, lung, and female reproductive tract development

Cathrin Brisken, Alessandra Piersigilli, Marian Caikovski, Dalya Ataca, Yakir Guri

The ADAMTS family comprises 19 secreted metalloproteinases that cleave extracellular matrix components and have diverse functions in numerous disease and physiological contexts. A number of them remain 'orphan' proteases, among them ADAMTS18, which has bee ...

Refraction limit of miniaturized optical systems: a ball-lens example

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Myun Sik Kim, Roland Andreas Bitterli

We study experimentally and theoretically the electromagnetic field in amplitude and phase behind ball-lenses across a wide range of diameters, ranging from a millimeter scale down to a micrometer. Based on the observation, we study the transition between ...
