Automating Infrastructure Surveying: A Framework for Geometric Measurements and Compliance Assessment Using Point Cloud Data
Amin Ghafourian, Andrew Lee, Dechen Gao +3
Automation can play a prominent role in improving efficiency, accuracy, and scalability in infrastructure surveying and assessing construction and compliance standards. This paper…
Hierarchical end-to-end autonomous navigation through few-shot waypoint detection
Amin Ghafourian, Zhongying CuiZhu, Debo Shi +4
Human navigation is facilitated through the association of actions with landmarks, tapping into our ability to recognize salient features in our environment. Consequently, navigati…
One-Shot Learning of Visual Path Navigation for Autonomous Vehicles
Zhongying CuiZhu, Francois Charette, Amin Ghafourian +4
Autonomous driving presents many challenges due to the large number of scenarios the autonomous vehicle (AV) may encounter. End-to-end deep learning models are comparatively simpli…
Targeted collapse regularized autoencoder for anomaly detection: black hole at the center
Amin Ghafourian, Huanyi Shui, Devesh Upadhyay +3
Autoencoders have been extensively used in the development of recent anomaly detection techniques. The premise of their application is based on the notion that after training the a…
Mathematical construction of a low-bias high-resolution deprivation index for the United States
Amin Ghafourian, Noli Brazil, Thilo Gross
The construction of deprivation indices is complicated by the inherent ambiguity in defining deprivation as well as the potential for partisan manipulation. Nevertheless, deprivati…
Wireless localization with diffusion maps
Amin Ghafourian, Orestis Georgiou, Edmund Barter +1
In the Wireless Localization Matching Problem (WLMP) the challenge is to match pieces of equipment with a set of candidate locations based on wireless signal measurements taken by…
