3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) is a popular radiance field method, with many application-specific extensions. Most variants rely on the same core algorithm, depth-sorting of Gaussian splats then rasterizing in primitive order. This ensures co…
While 3D Gaussian Splatting has recently become popular for neural rendering, current methods rely on carefully engineered cloning and splitting strategies for placing Gaussians, which can lead to poor-quality renderings, and reliance on a
We present an approach to accelerate Neural Field training by efficiently selecting sampling locations. While Neural Fields have recently become popular, it is often trained by uniformly sampling the training domain, or through handcrafted
Artist generated clip-art images typically consist of a small number of distinct, uniformly colored regions with clear boundaries. Legacy artist created images are often stored in low-resolution (100x100px or less) anti-aliased raster form.…
Disclosed is a system having a robotic welding system, a controller, a camera, and a processor. The robotic welding system is configured to weld metal sections together in accordance with a plurality of welding variables. The controller is
We present a novel method for identification of the boundary of embryonic cells (blastomeres) in Hoffman Modulation Contrast (HMC) microscopic images that are taken between day one to day three. Identification of boundaries of blastomeres i…
This paper presents a novel pricing method for maximizing the profit of a cloud provider. Mostly, there are three different instances (on-demand, reserved, and spot instances) in big cloud providers. Each instance has its own characteristic…
The success of In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) greatly relies on the quality of the Inner Cell Mass (ICM) obtained at day 5 of embryo development. Unfortunately, ICM segmentation is difficult due to its shape variability and unconstrained prof…
In this paper, a new method to segment the blastocyst images in JPEG compressed domain is proposed. We exploit valuable features of a DCT transform to automate the segmentation process in a blastocyst image. A two layer feedforward backprop…
Recently cloud computing has gained enormous attention in the industry with an increasing number of cloud service providers. Their tendency to cloud computing is of benefit for cloud users, as the increasing number of cloud providers result…
