Despite recent progress, video diffusion models still struggle to synthesize realistic videos involving highly dynamic motions or requiring fine-grained motion controllability. A central limitation lies in the scarcity of such examples in commonly used training datasets. To address this, we introduc
Inverse rendering aims to reconstruct geometry and reflectance from captured images. Display-camera imaging systems offer unique advantages for this task: each pixel can easily function as a programmable point light source, and the polarized light emitted by LCD displays facilitates diffuse-specular…
Hyperspectral 3D imaging captures both depth maps and hyperspectral images, enabling comprehensive geometric and material analysis. Recent methods achieve high spectral and depth accuracy; however, they require long acquisition times--often over several minutes--or rely on large, expensive systems,…
Inverse rendering seeks to reconstruct both geometry and spatially varying BRDFs (SVBRDFs) from captured images. To address the inherent ill-posedness of inverse rendering, basis BRDF representations are commonly used, modeling SVBRDFs as spatially varying blends of a set of basis BRDFs. However, ex…
Achieving robust stereo 3D imaging under diverse illumination conditions is an important however challenging task, largely due to the limited dynamic ranges (DRs) of cameras, which are significantly smaller than real world DR. As a result, the accuracy of existing stereo depth estimation methods is…
Light-matter interactions modify both the intensity and polarization state of light. Changes in polarization, represented by a Mueller matrix, encode detailed scene information. Existing optical ellipsometers capture Mueller-matrix images; however, they are often limited to static scenes due to long…
We present FloVD, a novel video diffusion model for camera-controllable video generation. FloVD leverages optical flow to represent the motions of the camera and moving objects. This approach offers two key benefits. Since optical flow can be directly estimated from videos, our approach allows for t…
In this paper, we present GyroDeblurNet, a novel single-image deblurring method that utilizes a gyro sensor to resolve the ill-posedness of image deblurring. The gyro sensor provides valuable information about camera motion that can improve deblurring quality. However, exploiting real-world gyro dat…
Integrating RGB and NIR imaging provides complementary spectral information, enhancing robotic vision in challenging lighting conditions. However, existing datasets and imaging systems lack pixel-level alignment between RGB and NIR images, posing challenges for downstream tasks.In this paper, we dev…

To this end we adopt point-based rendering eliminating the need for multiple samplings per ray typical…
Hyperspectral 3D imaging aims to acquire both depth and spectral information of a scene. However existing methods are either prohibitively expensive and bulky or compromise on spectral and depth accuracy.

In this paper we propose the first generalizable view synthesis approach that specifically targets multi-view stereo-camera images. Since recent stereo matching has demonstrated accurate geometry prediction we introduce stereo matching into novel-view synthesis for high-quality geometry reconstructi…

Learning the forward and inverse processes of camera ISPs has been recently demonstrated enabling physically-meaningful RAW-level image processing on input sRGB images. How…
Lidar has become a cornerstone sensing modality for 3D vision especially for large outdoor scenarios and autonomous driving. Conventional lidar sensors are capable of providing centimeter-accurate distance information by emitting laser pulses into a scene and measuring the time-of-flight (ToF) of th…

By leveraging spatiotemporal polarization and color information, our method combines multi-view pol…
Indirect time-of-flight (iToF) imaging allows us to capture dense depth information at a low cost. However, iToF imaging often suffers from multipath interference (MPI) artifacts in the presence of scattering media, resulting in severe depth-accuracy degradation. For instance, iToF cameras cannot me…
Time-of-flight (ToF) sensors provide an image modality fueling applications across domains, including lidar in autonomous driving, robotics, and augmented reality. Conventional ToF imaging methods estimate the depth of a scene point by sending pulses of light into a scene and measuring the time of f…
"For realistic and vivid colorization, generative priors have recently been exploited. However, such generative priors often fail for in-the-wild complex images due to their limited representation space. In this paper, we propose BigColor, a novel colorization approach that provides vivid colorizati…
Transparent and semi-transparent materials pose significant challenges for existing scene understanding and segmentation algorithms due to their lack of RGB texture which impedes the extraction of meaningful features. In this work, we exploit that the light-matter interactions on glass materials pro…
We introduce Mask-ToF, a method to reduce flying pixels (FP) in time-of-flight (ToF) depth captures. FPs are pervasive artifacts which occur around depth edges, where light paths from both an object and its background are integrated over the aperture. This light mixes at a sensor pixel to produce er…

Active stereo cameras project a pseudo-random dot pattern on object surfaces to extract disparity independ…
Imaging depth and spectrum have been extensively studied in isolation from each other for decades. Recently, hyperspectral-depth (HS-D) imaging emerges to capture both information simultaneously by combining two different imaging systems; one for depth, the other for spectrum. While being accurate,…
