Water Quality Assessment Using Visual Sensors
Mohbat Tharani, Abdul Wahab Amin, Fezan Rasool, Muhammad Maaz, Murtaza Taj, Abubakr Muhammad Summary In the absence of an effective trash management framework, trash is often illegally dumped in rivers and canals running through urban areas, contaminating freshwater and blocking drainage lines which result in urban floods. When this contaminated water reaches agricultural fields, it […]
Kiln-Net
Usman Nazir, Usman Khalid Mian, Muhammad Usman Sohail, Murtaza Taj and Momin Uppal Abstract: The availability of high-resolution satellite imagery has enabled several new applications. One such application is identification of brick kilns for the elimination of modern day slavery which is also one of UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). This requires automated analysis of […]
Enabling 3D vision on hand-held devices
Enabling 3D vision on hand-held devices Miniaturization of technology in past few decades has further reduced the gap between man and machine. Now people can have a powerful machine with computation, communication and imaging capabilities in their pockets in the form of smartphone. Several tasks that were not possible before can now be performed […]
NRSfM using Local Rigidity
Abstract We show that typical nonrigid structure can often be approximated well as locally rigid sub-structures in time and space. Specifically, we assume that: 1) the structure can be approximated as rigid in a short local time window and 2) some point- pairs stay relatively rigid in space, maintaining a fixed distance between them during […]
3D Metric Rectification using Angle Regularity
Abstract We propose Automatic Metric Rectification of projectively distorted 3D structures for man-made scenes using Angle Regularity. Man-made scenes, such as buildings, are characterized by a profusion of mutually orthogonal planes and lines. Assuming the availability of planar segmentation, we search for the rectifying 3D homography which maximizes the number of orthogonal plane-pairs in the […]

Shape from Angle Regularity – Project Page
Urban architecture is characterized by a profusion of straight lines that meet orthogonally. This simple observation leads to a flexible definition of the man-made world and the distortion in these regular angles serves as a new shape-from-X cue. This project formulates the idea and explores its applications in various scenarios in detail. Publications Some initial results […]
Bilinear Spatiotemporal Basis Models – Project Page
Ijaz Akhter, Tomas Simon, Sohaib Khan, Iain Matthews, Yaser Sheikh Abstract A variety of dynamic objects, such as faces, bodies, and cloth, are represented in computer graphics as a collection of moving spatial landmarks. Spatiotemporal data is inherent in a number of graphics applications including animation, simulation, and object and camera tracking. The principal modes […]
Trajectory Basis for Nonrigid Structure from Motion – Project Page
Ijaz Akhter, Yaser Sheikh, Sohaib Khan, Takeo Kanade Abstract Existing approaches to nonrigid structure from motion assume that the instantaneous 3D shape of a deforming object is a linear combination of basis shapes. These basis are object dependent and therefore have to be estimated anew for each video sequence. In contrast, we propose a dual approach to describe the evolving […]
