HolmeSketcher: Generative 3D Sketch Mapping for Spatial Reconstruction in Crime Scene Investigation

Tianyi Xiao, Yizi Chen, Sidi Wu +3

Sketch mapping is widely used in crime scene investigation (CSI) to document, interpret, and communicate spatial information. However, it is typically performed on 2D media, which…

StegoGAN: Leveraging Steganography for Non-Bijective Image-to-Image Translation

Sidi Wu, Yizi Chen, Samuel Mermet +4

Most image-to-image translation models postulate that a unique correspondence exists between the semantic classes of the source and target domains. However, this assumption does no…

Cross-attention Spatio-temporal Context Transformer for Semantic Segmentation of Historical Maps

Sidi Wu, Yizi Chen, Konrad Schindler +1

Historical maps provide useful spatio-temporal information on the Earth's surface before modern earth observation techniques came into being. To extract information from maps, neur…
