Existing techniques to compress point cloud attributes leverage either geometric or video-based compression tools. We explore a radically different approach inspired by recent advances in point cloud representation learning. Point clouds can be interpreted as 2D manifolds in 3D space. Specifically, we fold a 2D grid on…

Evaluation of Multi-Slice Inputs to Convolutional Neural Networks for Medical Image Segmentationeess.IV
When using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for segmentation of organs and lesions in medical images, the conventional approach is to work with inputs and outputs either as single slice (2D) or whole volumes (3D). One common alternative, in this study denoted as pseudo-3D, is to use a stack of adjacent slices as in…

Approximation of conformal mappings and novel applications to shape recognition of planar domainsmath.DG
Our goal is to provide a novel method of representing 2D shapes, where each shape will be assigned a unique fingerprint - a computable approximation to a conformal map of the given shape to a canonical shape in 2D or 3D space (see page 22 for a few examples). In this paper, we make the first significant step in this pr…
