From finger animation to full-body embodiment of avatars with different morphologies and proportions

Mathias Guy Delahaye

VR (Virtual Reality) is a real-time simulation that creates the subjective illusion of being in a virtual world. This thesis explores how integrating the user's body and fingers can be achieved and beneficial for the user to experience VR. At the advent of ...

Microgravity induces overconfidence in perceptual decision-making

Davide Scaramuzza, Christian Pfeiffer, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Does gravity affect decision-making? This question comes into sharp focus as plans for interplanetary human space missions solidify. In the framework of Bayesian brain theories, gravity encapsulates a strong prior, anchoring agents to a reference frame via ...

Rapid motion estimation and correction using self-encoded FID navigators in 3D radial MRI

Tobias Kober, Davide Piccini

Purpose: To develop a self-navigated motion compensation strategy for 3D radial MRI that can compensate for continuous head motion by measuring rigid body motion parameters with high temporal resolution from the central k-space acquisition point (self-enco ...

Processing load, and not stimulus evidence, determines the duration of unconscious visual feature integration

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer, Lukas Vogelsang

Integration across space and time is essential for the analysis of motion, low contrast, and many more stimuli. A crucial question is what determines the duration of integration. Based on classical models of decision-making, one might expect that integrati ...

Detecting Anomalies and Obstacles in Road Scenes

Krzysztof Maciej Lis

We address the problem of segmenting anomalies and unusual obstacles in road scenes for the purpose of self-driving safety. The objects in question are not present in the common training sets as it is not feasible to collect and annotate examples for every ...

AN UNSUPERVISED METHOD FOR THE DETECTION OF AND TRACKING OF TARGETS IN SPOTLIGHT MODE SAR IMAGES

Lloyd Haydn Hughes

Taking advantage of Capella's ability to dwell on a target for an extended period of time (nominally 30s) in its spotlight (SP) mode, an unsupervised methodology for detecting moving targets in this data is presented in this paper. By colourizing short seg ...

Revisiting Evaluation Metrics for Semantic Segmentation: Optimization and Evaluation of Fine-grained Intersection over Union

Devis Tuia, Zifu Wang

Semantic segmentation datasets often exhibit two types of imbalance: \textit{class imbalance}, where some classes appear more frequently than others and \textit{size imbalance}, where some objects occupy more pixels than others. This causes traditional eva ...

Real-time Self-contact Retargeting of Avatars down to Finger Level

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Mathias Guy Delahaye

We interact with the world through a body that includes hands and fingers. Likewise, providing an avatar allowing the control of a virtual body with fingers is an important step to improve the user experience in VR. When the user and their avatar skeleton ...

Rigidity-Aware Detection for 6D Object Pose Estimation

Mathieu Salzmann, Yinlin Hu, Rui Song, Jingyu Li

Most recent 6D object pose estimation methods first use object detection to obtain 2D bounding boxes before actually regressing the pose. However, the general object detection methods they use are ill-suited to handle cluttered scenes, thus producing poor ...
