Most work in audio enhancement targets human speech, while bioacoustics is less studied due to noisy recordings and the distinct traits of animal sounds. To fill this gap, we adapt speech enhancement methods and build BioSEN, a model made for bioacoustic signals. BioSEN has three modules: a multi-sc…
Managing indirect access in laparoscopy as a minimally invasive procedure poses challenges to physicians. In particular, an endoscope must be navigated to achieve adequate visualization of the surgical anatomy, while coping with unergonomic poses, tremor, and fatigue. Furthermore, the alignment of v
Compared to daytime image deraining, nighttime image deraining poses significant challenges due to inherent complexities of nighttime scenarios and the lack of high-quality datasets that accurately represent the coupling effect between rain and illumination. In this paper, we rethink the task of nig…
Recently, spiking neural networks (SNNs) have demonstrated substantial potential in computer vision tasks. In this paper, we present an Efficient Spiking Deraining Network, called ESDNet. Our work is motivated by the observation that rain pixel values will lead to a more pronounced intensity of spik…
Understanding the relationships between items can improve the accuracy and interpretability of recommender systems. Among these relationships, the substitute and complement relationships attract the most attention in e-commerce platforms. The substitutable items are interchangeable and might be comp…
Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery has shown to improve patient outcomes, as well as reduce complications and recovery time for several clinical applications. While increasingly configurable robotic arms can maximize reach and avoid collisions in cluttered environments, positioning them appro
