Depth Superresolution using Motion Adaptive Regularization
Spatial resolution of depth sensors is often significantly lower compared to
that of conventional optical cameras. Recent work has explored the idea of
improving the resolution of depth using higher resolution intensity as a side
information. In this paper, we demonstrate that further incorporating temporal
information in videos can significantly improve the results. In particular, we
propose a novel approach that improves depth resolution, exploiting the
space-time redundancy in the depth and intensity using motion-adaptive low-rank
regularization. Experiments confirm that the proposed approach substantially
improves the quality of the estimated high-resolution depth. Our approach can
be a first component in systems using vision techniques that rely on high
resolution depth information
Tackling 3D ToF Artifacts Through Learning and the FLAT Dataset
Scene motion, multiple reflections, and sensor noise introduce artifacts in
the depth reconstruction performed by time-of-flight cameras. We propose a
two-stage, deep-learning approach to address all of these sources of artifacts
simultaneously. We also introduce FLAT, a synthetic dataset of 2000 ToF
measurements that capture all of these nonidealities, and allows to simulate
different camera hardware. Using the Kinect 2 camera as a baseline, we show
improved reconstruction errors over state-of-the-art methods, on both simulated
and real data.Comment: ECCV 201
A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning in Remote Sensing: Theories, Tools and Challenges for the Community
In recent years, deep learning (DL), a re-branding of neural networks (NNs),
has risen to the top in numerous areas, namely computer vision (CV), speech
recognition, natural language processing, etc. Whereas remote sensing (RS)
possesses a number of unique challenges, primarily related to sensors and
applications, inevitably RS draws from many of the same theories as CV; e.g.,
statistics, fusion, and machine learning, to name a few. This means that the RS
community should be aware of, if not at the leading edge of, of advancements
like DL. Herein, we provide the most comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art
RS DL research. We also review recent new developments in the DL field that can
be used in DL for RS. Namely, we focus on theories, tools and challenges for
the RS community. Specifically, we focus on unsolved challenges and
opportunities as it relates to (i) inadequate data sets, (ii)
human-understandable solutions for modelling physical phenomena, (iii) Big
Data, (iv) non-traditional heterogeneous data sources, (v) DL architectures and
learning algorithms for spectral, spatial and temporal data, (vi) transfer
learning, (vii) an improved theoretical understanding of DL systems, (viii)
high barriers to entry, and (ix) training and optimizing the DL.Comment: 64 pages, 411 references. To appear in Journal of Applied Remote
