Efficient 3D reconstruction through enhanced PatchMatch techniques for accelerated point cloud generation by Feng, Wenwen, Ali, Siti Khadijah, Rahmat, Rahmita Wirza O. K.

“…This method enhances the image-based MVS 3D reconstruction of urban buildings by improving the similarity matching method between pixel blocks, adopting a sparse matching strategy, and generating depth maps at intervals. The resulting 3D models are of high quality and can be generated rapidly, as demonstrated by tests using multi-angle aerial image sets captured by UAVs. …”

From screen to scene: exploring factors influencing flow state and actual destination visitation tendencies in short travel videos by Chong, Sin-Er, Lim, Xin-Jean, Cheah, Jun-Hwa, Tee, Keng Kok

“…We employed a dual analytical approach: PLS-SEM to map relationships between core concepts, and NCA to identify critical factors for maximising outcomes. …”

Bayesian quantum noise spectroscopy by Koh, Zhi Yang

“…We can also obtain the frequentist results by taking the maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) estimates of the Bayesian results. We end by showing how Bayesian inference can be used to compare two models used to describe the same physical phenomenon.…”

Towards robust monocular depth estimation in the wild by Zheng, Zhenkai

“…This research project aims to create a robust monocular depth estimation model that is capable of predicting accurate relative depth maps in the wild. The project will highlight the significance of the training dataset used during supervised model training by comparing models trained with our new mixed dataset in the wild with a common open-source dataset such as NYU. …”

E-commerce regulation and trader compliance: a comparative and empirical inquiry by Pflücke, F

“…By examining whether traders actually comply with their legal obligations, the thesis seeks to understand how consumer rules work in practice and determine factors of compliance. The thesis first maps the legal obligations of e-commerce traders under the national rules implementing the Unfair Contact Terms Directive, E-Commerce Directive, and Consumer Rights Directive. …”

GaussCtrl: multi-view consistent text-driven 3D Gaussian splatting editing by Wu, J, Bian, J-W, Li, X, Wang, G, Reid, I, Torr, P, Prisacariu, VA

“…This is achieved by the two terms: (a) depth-conditioned editing that enforces geometric consistency across multi-view images by leveraging naturally consistent depth maps. (b) attention-based latent code alignment that unifies the appearance of edited images by conditioning their editing to several reference views through self and cross-view attention between images’ latent representations. …”
