Images and videos are discrete 2D projections of the 4D world (3D space + time). Most visual understanding, prediction, and generation operate directly on 2D observations, leading to suboptimal performance. We propose SeeU, a novel approach that learns the continuous 4D dynamics and generate the uns
The astonishing development of single-photon cameras has created an unprecedented opportunity for scientific and industrial imaging. However the high data throughput generated by these 1-bit sensors creates a significant bottleneck for low-power applications. In this paper we explore the possibility…
"Blind deconvolution problems are severely ill-posed because neither the underlying signal nor the forward operator are not known exactly. Conventionally, these problems are solved by alternating between estimation of the image and kernel while keeping the other fixed. In this paper, we show that th…
"The proliferation of single-photon image sensors has opened the door to a plethora of high-speed and low-light imaging applications. However, data collected by these sensors are often 1-bit or few-bit, and corrupted by noise and strong motion. Conventional video restoration methods are not designed…
Recovering images distorted by atmospheric turbulence is a challenging inverse problem due to the stochastic nature of turbulence. Although numerous turbulence mitigation (TM) algorithms have been proposed their efficiency and generalization to real-world dynamic scenarios remain severely limited. B…
While today's high dynamic range (HDR) image fusion algorithms are capable of blending multiple exposures, the acquisition is often controlled so that the dynamic range within one exposure is narrow. For HDR imaging in photon-limited situations, the dynamic range can be enormous and the noise within…
Imaging in low light is difficult because the number of photons arriving at the sensor is low. Imaging dynamic scenes in low-light environments is even more difficult because as the scene moves, pixels in adjacent frames need to be aligned before they can be denoised. Conventional CMOS image sensors…
Image denoising on mobile cameras requires low complexity, but many state-of-the-art denoising methods are computationally intensive. We present a low complexity denoising algorithm using an edge-aware recursive filter (RF). We make two contributions. First, we modify the original RF so that it is s…
