Abstract: A method for jointly removing rolling shutter (RS) distortions and blur artifacts in a single input RS and blurred image is presented. The method includes generating a plurality of RS blurred images from a camera, synthesizing RS blurred images from a set of GS sharp images, corresponding GS sharp depth maps, and synthesized RS camera motions by employing a structure-and-motion-aware RS distortion and blur rendering module to generate training data to train a single-view joint RS correction and deblurring convolutional neural network (CNN), and predicting an RS rectified and deblurred image from the single input RS and blurred image by employing the single-view joint RS correction and deblurring CNN.

Abstract: A method for improving geometry-based monocular structure from motion (SfM) by exploiting depth maps predicted by convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is presented. The method includes capturing a sequence of RGB images from an unlabeled monocular video stream obtained by a monocular camera, feeding the RGB images into a depth estimation/refinement module, outputting depth maps, feeding the depth maps and the RGB images to a pose estimation/refinement module, the depths maps and the RGB images collectively defining pseudo RGB-D images, outputting camera poses and point clouds, and constructing a 3D map of a surrounding environment displayed on a visualization device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining a path include detecting objects within a perspective image that shows a scene. Depth is predicted within the perspective image. Semantic segmentation is performed on the perspective image. An attention map is generated using the detected objects and the predicted depth. A refined top-down view of the scene is generated using the predicted depth and the semantic segmentation. A parametric top-down representation of the scene is determined using a relational graph model. A path through the scene is determined using the parametric top-down representation.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for implementing a self-supervised visual odometry framework using long-term modeling includes, within a pose network of the self-supervised visual odometry framework including a plurality of pose encoders, a convolution long short-term memory (ConvLSTM) module having a first-layer ConvLSTM and a second-layer ConvLSTM, and a pose prediction layer, performing a first stage of training over a first image sequence using photometric loss, depth smoothness loss and pose cycle consistency loss, and performing a second stage of training to finetune the second-layer ConvLSTM over a second image sequence longer than the first image sequence.

Abstract: A method for correcting rolling shutter (RS) effects is presented. The method includes generating a plurality of images from a camera, synthesizing RS images from global shutter (GS) counterparts to generate training data to train the structure-and-motion-aware convolutional neural network (CNN), and predicting an RS camera motion and an RS depth map from a single RS image by employing a structure-and-motion-aware CNN to remove RS distortions from the single RS image.

Abstract: Systems and methods for camera self-calibration are provided. The method includes receiving real uncalibrated images, and estimating, using a camera self-calibration network, multiple predicted camera parameters corresponding to the real uncalibrated images. Deep supervision is implemented based on a dependence order between the plurality of predicted camera parameters to place supervision signals across multiple layers according to the dependence order. The method also includes determining calibrated images using the real uncalibrated images and the predicted camera parameters.

Abstract: A method provided for 3D object localization predicts pairs of 2D bounding boxes. Each pair corresponds to a detected object in each of the two consecutive input monocular images. The method generates, for each detected object, a relative motion estimation specifying a relative motion between the two images. The method constructs an object cost volume by aggregating temporal features from the two images using the pairs of 2D bounding boxes and the relative motion estimation to predict a range of object depth candidates and a confidence score for each object depth candidate and an object depth from the object depth candidates. The method updates the relative motion estimation based on the object cost volume and the object depth to provide a refined object motion and a refined object depth. The method reconstructs a 3D bounding box for each detected object based on the refined object motion and refined object depth.
