Multitask Network for Joint Object Detection, Semantic Segmentation and Human Pose Estimation in Vehicle Occupancy Monitoring

Nikolas Ebert, Patrick Mangat, Oliver Wasenmüller

In order to ensure safe autonomous driving, precise information about the conditions in and around the vehicle must be available. Accordingly, the monitoring of occupants and objec…

Detection of Driver Drowsiness by Calculating the Speed of Eye Blinking

Muhammad Fawwaz Yusri, Patrick Mangat, Oliver Wasenmüller

Many road accidents are caused by drowsiness of the driver. While there are methods to detect closed eyes, it is a non-trivial task to detect the gradual process of a driver becomi…

PDC: Piecewise Depth Completion utilizing Superpixels

Dennis Teutscher, Patrick Mangat, Oliver Wasenmüller

Depth completion from sparse LiDAR and high-resolution RGB data is one of the foundations for autonomous driving techniques. Current approaches often rely on CNN-based methods with…

DVMN: Dense Validity Mask Network for Depth Completion

Laurenz Reichardt, Patrick Mangat, Oliver Wasenmüller

LiDAR depth maps provide environmental guidance in a variety of applications. However, such depth maps are typically sparse and insufficient for complex tasks such as autonomous na…

Can Gravitational Instantons Really Constrain Axion Inflation?

Arthur Hebecker, Patrick Mangat, Stefan Theisen +1

Axions play a central role in inflationary model building and other cosmological applications. This is mainly due to their flat potential, which is protected by a global shift symm…

Winding out of the Swamp: Evading the Weak Gravity Conjecture with F-term Winding Inflation?

Arthur Hebecker, Patrick Mangat, Fabrizio Rompineve +1

We present a new model of large field inflation along a winding trajectory in the field space of two axionic fields, where the 'axions' originate from the complex structure moduli…

Tuning and Backreaction in F-term Axion Monodromy Inflation

Arthur Hebecker, Patrick Mangat, Fabrizio Rompineve +1

We continue the development of axion monodromy inflation, focussing in particular on the backreaction of complex structure moduli. In our setting, the shift symmetry comes from a p…

Dark Radiation predictions from general Large Volume Scenarios

Arthur Hebecker, Patrick Mangat, Fabrizio Rompineve +1

Recent observations constrain the amount of Dark Radiation () and may even hint towards a non-zero value of . It is by now well-known that this puts str…
