Outdoor lighting has extremely high dynamic range. This makes the process of capturing outdoor environment maps notoriously challenging since special equipment must be used. In this work, we propose an alternative approach. We first capture with a regular, LDR omnidirectional camera, and aim to recover HDR after fact via novel, learning-based inverse tonemapping method. deep autoencoder framework which regresses linear, range data from non-linear, saturated, low panoramas. validate our...
We present a neural network that predicts HDR outdoor illumination from single LDR image. At the heart of our work is method to accurately learn lighting panoramas under any weather condition. achieve this by training another CNN (on combination synthetic and real images) take as input an panorama, regress parameters Lalonde-Mathews model. This model trained such it a) reconstructs appearance sky, b) renders objects lit illumination. use label large-scale dataset with them train image...
Identifying typical odor-causing compounds is essential for odor problem control in drinking water. In this study, aiming at a major water source reservoir hot and humid areas southern China, which encountered seasonable problems recent years, an integrated approach including comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC–TOFMS), flavor profile analysis (FPA) quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was adopted to investigate...

Photometric Stereo has been explored extensively in laboratory conditions since its inception. Recently, attempts have made at applying this technique under natural outdoor lighting. Outdoor photometric stereo presents additional challenges as one does not control over illumination anymore. In paper, we explore the stability of surface normals reconstructed outdoors. We present a data-driven analysis based on large database HDR environment maps. Given sequence object images and corresponding...
While Photometric Stereo (PS) has long been confined to the lab, there a recent interest in applying this technique reconstruct outdoor objects and scenes. Un-fortunately, most successful PS techniques typically require gathering either months of data, or waiting for particular time year. In paper, we analyze illumination requirements single-day yield stable normal reconstructions, determine that these are often available much less than full day. particular, show right set conditions...

Compositing virtual objects into real background images requires one to carefully match the scene's camera parameters, surface geometry, textures, and lighting obtain plausible renderings. Recent learning approaches have shown many scene properties can be estimated from images, resulting in robust automatic single-image compositing systems, but challenges remain. In particular, interactions between synthetic shadows are not handled gracefully by existing methods, which typically assume a...
Most computer vision research focuses on narrow angle lenses and is not adapted to super-wide-angle (aka spherical) lenses. This mainly because current neural networks are designed or trained interpret the significant barrel distortion that introduced in captured image by such wide As these capture a half-sphere section of sphere object space, appears when projected 2D flat sensor. By controlling this at lens design stage, camera designers can create some areas with augmented resolution...
Predicting the short-term power output of a photovoltaic panel is an important task for efficient management smart grids. Short-term forecasting at minute scale, also known as nowcasting, can benefit from sky images captured by regular cameras and installed close to solar panel. However, estimating weather conditions these images---sun intensity, cloud appearance movement, etc.---is very challenging that community has yet solve with traditional computer vision techniques. In this work, we...
We developed a Convolutional Neural Network to estimate depth on wide-angle images using panomorph lens with controlled distortion. simulated three different model and compared their performances based zone of augmented resolution.
