The aim of blind super-resolution (SR) in computer vision is to improve the resolution of an image without prior knowledge of the degradation process that caused the image to be low-resolution. The State of the Art (SOTA) model Real-ESRGAN has advanced perceptual loss a...

Virtual reality art is reshaping digital art experiences, especially with the recent release of multiplayer 3D art applications, but may elicit different first impressions across different age groups which can impact their uptake. In particular, popular colour pickers based on HSV...

In recent academic literature Sex and Gender have both become synonyms, even though distinct definitions do exist. This give rise to the question, which of those two are actually face image classifiers identifying? It will be argued and explained why CNN based classifiers&#x...

Lung segmentation is an initial step to provide accurate lung parenchyma in many studies on lung diseases based on analyzing the Computed Tomography (CT) scan, especially in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) detec tion. In this work, Coordinate-UNet 3D, a model inspired by U...

More information leads to better decisions and predictions, right? Confirming this hypothesis, several studies concluded that the simultaneous use of optical and thermal images leads to better predictions in crowd counting. However, the way multimodal models extract enriched features from&...

The traditional image classifiers are not capable to verify if samples belong to specified classes due to several rea sons: classifiers do not provide boundaries between in-class and out-of-class samples; although classifiers provide separation boundaries between known classes, classifiers’ late...

Field of View (FOV) Nano-CT X-Ray synchrotron imaging is used for acquiring brain neuronal features from Golgi-stained bio-samples. It theoretically requires a large number of acquired data for compensating CT recon struction noise and artefacts (both reinforced by the sparsity of brai...

Ray tracing remains of interest to Computer Graphics community with its elegant framing of how light interacts with virtual 3D objects, being able to easily support multiple light sources during rendering and using sampling of estimates of intensity values at multiple ...
