PhD defence public presentation, Bayesian methods for inverse problems with point clouds: applications to single-photon lidar, ENSEEHIT, Toulouse, France
Compressive sampling (CS) aims at acquiring a signal at a sampling rate below the Nyquist rate by exploiting prior knowledge that a signal is sparse or correlated in some domain. Despite the remarkable progress in the theory of CS, the sampling rate on a single image required by CS is still very high in practice. In this presentation, a non-local compressive sampling (NLCS) recovery method is proposed to further reduce the sampling rate by exploiting non-local patch correlation and local piecewise smoothness present in natural images. Two non-local sparsity measures, i.e., non-local wavelet sparsity and non-local joint sparsity, are proposed to exploit the patch correlation in NLCS. An efficient iterative algorithm is developed to solve the NLCS recovery problem, which is shown to have stable convergence behavior in experiments. The experimental results show that our NLCS significantly improves the state-of-the-art of image compressive sampling.
Nonlinear Transformation Based Detection And Directional Mean Filter to Remo...IJMER
In this paper, a novel two stage algorithm for the removal of random valued impulse noise
from the images is presented. In the first stage the noise pixels are detected by using an exponential
nonlinear function. The transformation of the pixels increases the gap between noisy and noise free
candidates which leads to an efficient detection. In the second stage, the directional differences between
the pixels in the four main directions are calculated. The mean values of the pixels which lie in the
direction of minimum difference are calculated and the noisy pixel values are replaced with the mean
value of the pixels lying in the direction of minimum difference. Experimental results show that proposed
method is superior to the conventional methods in peak signal to noise ratio.

This paper analyzed different haze removal methods. Haze causes trouble to
many computer graphics/vision applications as it reduces the visibility of the scene. Air light and
attenuation are two basic phenomena of haze. air light enhances the whiteness in scene and on
the other hand attenuation reduces the contrast. the colour and contrast of the scene is recovered
by haze removal techniques. many applications like object detection , surveillance, consumer
electronics etc. apply haze removal techniques. this paper widely focuses on the methods of
effectively eliminating haze from digital images. it also indicates the demerits of current
techniques.

Most of the computer applications use digital images. Digital image processing acts an important
role in the analysis and interpretation of data, which is in the digital form. Images taken in foggy
weather condition often suffer from poor visibility and clarity. After the study of several fast
dehazing methods like Tan’s dehazing technique, Fattal’s dehazing technique and aiming Heat al
dehazing technique, Dark Channel Prior (DCP) intended by He et al is most substantive technique
for dehazing.This survey aims to study about various existing methods such as polarization, dark
channel prior, depth map based method etc. are used for dehazing.
Noise Removal in SAR Images using Orthonormal Ridgelet TransformIJERA Editor
Development in the field of image processing for reducing speckle noise from digital images/satellite images is a challenging task for image processing applications. Previously many algorithms were proposed to de-speckle the noise in digital images. Here in this article we are presenting experimental results on de-speckling of Synthetic Aperture RADAR (SAR) images. SAR images have wide applications in remote sensing and mapping the surfaces of all planets. SAR can also be implemented as "inverse SAR" by observing a moving target over a substantial time with a stationary antenna. Hence denoising of SAR images is an essential task for viewing the information. Here we introduce a transformation technique called ―Ridgelet‖, which is an extension level of wavelet. Ridgelet analysis can be done in the similar way how wavelet analysis was done in the Radon domain as it translates singularities along lines into point singularities under different frequencies. Simulation results were show cased for proving that proposed work is more reliable than compared to other de-speckling processes, and the quality of de-speckled image is measured in terms of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio and Mean Square Error

Accelerated Joint Image Despeckling Algorithm in the Wavelet and Spatial DomainsCSCJournals
Noise is one of the most widespread problems present in nearly all imaging applications. In spite of the sophistication of the recently proposed methods, most denoising algorithms have not yet attained a desirable level of applicability. This paper proposes a two-stage algorithm for speckle noise reduction jointly in the wavelet and spatial domains. At the first stage, the optimal parameter value of the spatial speckle reduction filter is estimated, based on edge pixel statistics and noise variance. Then the optimized filter is used at the second stage to additionally smooth the approximation image of the wavelet sub-band. A complexity reduction algorithm for wavelet decomposition is also proposed. The obtained results are highly encouraging in terms of image quality which paves the way towards the reinforcement of the proposed algorithm for the performance enhancement of the Block Matching and 3D Filtering algorithm tackling multiplicative speckle noise.
Deep learning for image super resolutionPrudhvi Raj
Using Deep Convolutional Networks, the machine can learn end-to-end mapping between the low/high-resolution images. Unlike traditional methods, this method jointly optimizes all the layers of the image. A light-weight CNN structure is used, which is simple to implement and provides formidable trade-off from the existential methods.

Graph Representation Learning with Deep Embedding Approach:
Graphs are commonly used data structure for representing the real-world relationships, e.g., molecular structure, knowledge graphs, social and communication networks. The effective encoding of graphical information is essential to the success of such applications. In this talk I’ll first describe a general deep learning framework, namely structure2vec, for end to end graph feature representation learning. Then I’ll present the direct application of this model on graph problems on different scales, including community detection and molecule graph classification/regression. We then extend the embedding idea to temporal evolving user-product interaction graph for recommendation. Finally I’ll present our latest work on leveraging the reinforcement learning technique for graph combinatorial optimization, including vertex cover problem for social influence maximization and traveling salesman problem for scheduling management.

Abstract (Eng/Kor):
Image restoration (IR) is one of the fundamental problems, which includes denoising, deblurring, super-resolution, etc. Among those, in today's talk, I will more focus on the super-resolution task. There are two main streams in the super-resolution studies; a traditional model-based optimization and a discriminative learning method. I will present the pros and cons of both methods and their recent developments in the research field. Finally, I will provide a mathematical view that explains both methods in a single holistic framework, while achieving the best of both worlds.

Talk by Dr. Nikita Morikiakov on inverse problems in medical imaging with deep learning.
Inverse problem is the type of problems in natural sciences when one has to infer from a set of observations the causal factors that produced them. In medical imaging, important examples of inverse problems would be recontruction in CT and MRI, where the volumetric representation of an object is computed from the projection and Fourier space data respectively. In a classical approach, one relies on domain specific knowledge contained in physical-analytical models to develop a reconstruction algorithm, which is often given by a certain iterative refinement procedure. Recent research in inverse problems seeks to develop a mathematically coherent foundation for combining data driven models, based on deep learning, with the analytical knowledge contained in the classical reconstruction procedures. In this talk we will give a brief overview of these developments and then focus on particular applications in Digital Breast Tomosynthesis and MRI reconstruction.

We consider the problem of finding anomalies in high-dimensional data using popular PCA based anomaly scores. The naive algorithms for computing these scores explicitly compute the PCA of the covariance matrix which uses space quadratic in the dimensionality of the data. We give the first streaming algorithms
that use space that is linear or sublinear in the dimension. We prove general results showing that any sketch of a matrix that satisfies a certain operator norm guarantee can be used to approximate these scores. We instantiate these results with powerful matrix sketching techniques such as Frequent Directions and random projections to derive efficient and practical algorithms for these problems, which we validate over real-world data sets. Our main technical contribution is to prove matrix perturbation
inequalities for operators arising in the computation of these measures.

MEDIAN BASED PARALLEL STEERING KERNEL REGRESSION FOR IMAGE RECONSTRUCTIONcscpconf
Image reconstruction is a process of obtaining the original image from corrupted data. Applications of image reconstruction include Computer Tomography, radar imaging, weather
forecasting etc. Recently steering kernel regression method has been applied for image reconstruction [1]. There are two major drawbacks in this technique. Firstly, it is computationally intensive. Secondly, output of the algorithm suffers form spurious edges (especially in case of denoising). We propose a modified version of Steering Kernel Regression called as Median Based Parallel Steering Kernel Regression Technique. In the proposed algorithm the first problem is overcome by implementing it in on GPUs and multi-cores. The second problem is addressed by a gradient based suppression in which median filter is used. Our algorithm gives better output than that of the Steering Kernel Regression. The results are
compared using Root Mean Square Error(RMSE). Our algorithm has also shown a speedup of 21x using GPUs and shown speedup of 6x using multi-cores.

We propose an efficient algorithmic framework for time domain circuit simulation using exponential integrators. This work addresses several critical issues exposed by previous matrix exponential based circuit simulation research, and makes it capable of simulating stiff nonlinear circuit system at a large scale. In this framework, the system’s nonlinearity is treated with exponential Rosenbrock-Euler formulation. The matrix exponential and vector product is computed using invert Krylov subspace method. Our proposed method has several distinguished advantages over conventional formulations (e.g., the well-known backward Euler with Newton-Raphson method). The matrix factorization is performed only for the conductance/resistance matrix G, without being performed for the combinations of the capacitance/inductance matrix C and matrix G, which are used in traditional implicit formulations. Furthermore, due to the explicit nature of our formulation, we do not need to repeat LU decompositions when adjusting the length of time steps for error controls. Our algorithm is better suited to solving tightly coupled post-layout circuits in the pursuit for full-chip simulation. Our experimental results validate the advantages of our framework.

슈퍼픽셀 알고리즘은 입력 영상을 다수의 의미 있는 영역으로 과분할하는 기법이다. 입력 영상을 픽셀 단위로 표현할 때와 비교하여, 슈퍼픽셀 단위의 표현은 입력 영상의 단위의 수를 크게 줄이는 장점이 있어, 여러 컴퓨터 비전 기법에 전처리로 이용된다. 또한 슈퍼픽셀 알고리즘을 동영상으로 확장한 동영상 슈퍼픽셀 (temporal superpixel) 알고리즘은 동영상 기반의 컴퓨터 비전 기법에 적용될 수 있다. 기존의 동영상 슈퍼픽셀 기법은 시간적 유사성을 유지하기 위하여 움직임 정보를 이용하는데, 움직임 정보의 추출에는 많은 계산 복잡도가 요구된다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위해, 본 연구에서는 근접성 가중치 패치 정합 (proximity-weighted patch matching) 기반의 동영상 슈퍼픽셀 기법을 제안한다.

Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Posterior given the data 𝒁:
𝑝 𝚽, 𝒃 𝒁 ∝ 𝑝 𝒁 𝚽, 𝒃 𝑝 𝚽 𝑝(𝒃)
We want the maximum-a-posteriori estimate
argmax 𝑝 𝚽, 𝒃 𝒁
No analytical expressions …
We gather samples 𝚽(s) for 𝑠 = 1, … , 𝑁MC
