A novel Monte Carlo noise reduction operator is proposed in this paper. We apply and extend the standard bilateral filtering method and build a new local adaptive noise reduction k...
We present in this paper a novel method for eliciting the conditional probability matrices needed for a Bayesian network with the help of a neural network. We demonstrate how we c...
— Passive stereo vision is widely used as a range sensing technology in robots, but suffers from dropouts: areas of low texture where stereo matching fails. By supplementing a st...
