Point-Based Neural Rendering with Per-View Optimization
There has recently been great interest in neural rendering methods. Some approaches use 3D geometry reconstructed with Multi-View Stereo (MVS) but cannot recover from the errors of this process, while others directly learn a volumetric neural representation, but suffer from expensive training and inference. We introduc...

EMG Pattern Classification to Control a Hand Orthosis for Functional Grasp Assistance after Stroke

To be fully wearable, such devices must have intuitive controls, and to improve quality of life, the device should enable the user ...

Optimal Secure GDoF of Symmetric Gaussian Wiretap Channel with a Helper
We study a symmetric Gaussian wiretap channel with a helper, where a confidential message is sent from a transmitter to a legitimate receiver, in the presence of a helper and an eavesdropper, under a weak notion of secrecy constraint. For this setting, we characterize the optimal secure generalized degrees-of-freedom (...

Statistical Learnability of Generalized Additive Models based on Total Variation Regularization
A generalized additive model (GAM, Hastie and Tibshirani (1987)) is a nonparametric model by the sum of univariate functions with respect to each explanatory variable, i.e., $f({\mathbf x}) = \sum f_j(x_j)$, where $x_j\in\mathbb{R}$ is $j$-th component of a sample ${\mathbf x}\in \mathbb{R}^p$. In this paper, we introd...

Exploring the GLIDE model for Human Action-effect Prediction
We address the following action-effect prediction task. Given an image depicting an initial state of the world and an action expressed in text, predict an image depicting the state of the world following the action. The prediction should have the same scene context as the input image. We explore the use of the recently...

Traditional paradigms for imaging rely on the use of a spatial structure, either in the detector (pixels arrays) or in the illumination (patterned light). Removal of the spatial structure in the detector or illumination, i.e., imaging with just a single-point sensor, would require solving a very strongly ill-posed inve...
