We propose a parametric model that maps free-view images into vector space of coded facial shape, expression and appearance with neural radiance field, namely Morphable Facial NeRF. Specifically, MoFaNeRF takes the along coordinate view direction as input to an MLP, outputs point for photo-realistic image synthesis. Compared conventional 3D morphable models (3DMM), shows superiority in directly...

The in-scene atmospheric compensation (ISAC) algorithm of Young et al. (2002) [14] (and as implemented in the ENVI software system [16] as ‘Thermal Atm Correction’) is commonly applied to thermal infrared multiand hyperspectral imagery (MSI and HSI, respectively). ISAC estimates atmospheric transmissivity and upwelling radiance using only the scene data. The ISAC-derived transmissivity and upwe...

Automatic mapping of urban materials from remotely sensed radiance images remains difficult because of the complex physical phenomena induced by relief. Indeed, shadows and environment effects disrupt the radiance incoming the sensor. Moreover, the measured radiance depends on the illumination conditions of the observed area. This is quite problematic for multi-temporal analysis. Images are oft...

Recent developments in image-based modeling and rendering provide significant advantages over traditional image synthesis processes, including improved realism, simple representation and automatic content creation. Representations such as Plenoptic Modeling, Light Field, and the Lumigraph are well suited for storing view-dependent radiance information for static scenes and objects. Unfortunatel...

Transportation problems of large urban conurbations inspire search for new transportation systems, that meet high environmental standards, are relatively cheap and user friendly. The latter element also includes the needs of disabled and elderly people. This article concerns a new transportation system PRT - Personal Rapid Transit. In this article the attention is focused on the analysis of the...

In lowest unique bid auctions, N players bid for an item. The winner is whoever places the lowest bid, provided that it is also unique. We derive an analytical expression for the equilibrium distribution of the game as a function of N and study its properties, which are then compared with a large dataset of internet auctions. The empirical collective strategy reproduces the theoretical equilibr...

A set of simulated high-resolution infrared (IR) emission spectra of synthetic cirrus clouds is used to perform a sensitivity analysis of top-of-atmosphere (TOA) radiance to cloud parameters. Principal component analysis (PCA) is applied to assess the variability of radiance across the spectrum with respect to microphysical and bulk cloud quantities. These quantities include particle shape, eff...

BACKGROUND Environmental factors impact the skin aging resulting in decrease of skin radiance. Nutrition and particularly antioxidants could help to fight against skin degradation. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of an oral supplement rich in specific antioxidants, SkinAx2TM, on the improvement of the skin radiance in women. METHODS The open-label clinical study ...
