Development of a face mask detection pipeline for mask-wearing monitoring in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic: A modular approach
Benjaphan Sommana, Ukrit Watchareeruetai, Ankush Ganguly +4
During the SARS-Cov-2 pandemic, mask-wearing became an effective tool to prevent spreading and contracting the virus. The ability to monitor the mask-wearing rate in the population…
LOTR: Face Landmark Localization Using Localization Transformer
Ukrit Watchareeruetai, Benjaphan Sommana, Sanjana Jain +5
This paper presents a novel Transformer-based facial landmark localization network named Localization Transformer (LOTR). The proposed framework is a direct coordinate regression a…
An Introduction to Variational Inference
Ankush Ganguly, Samuel W. F. Earp
Approximating complex probability densities is a core problem in modern statistics. In this paper, we introduce the concept of Variational Inference (VI), a popular method in machi…
Sub-pixel face landmarks using heatmaps and a bag of tricks
Samuel W. F. Earp, Aubin Samacoits, Sanjana Jain +2
Accurate face landmark localization is an essential part of face recognition, reconstruction and morphing. To accurately localize face landmarks, we present our heatmap regression…
Face Detection with Feature Pyramids and Landmarks
Samuel W. F. Earp, Pavit Noinongyao, Justin A. Cairns +1
Accurate face detection and facial landmark localization are crucial to any face recognition system. We present a series of three single-stage RCNNs with different sized backbones…
Drivers of disc tilting I: Correlations and possible drivers for Milky Way analogues
Samuel W. F. Earp, Victor P. Debattista, Andrea V. Macciò +3
The direction of the spin vectors of disk galaxies change over time. We present the tilting rate of a sample of galaxies in the NIHAO suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulatio…
The Formation of Compact Elliptical Galaxies in The Vicinity of A Massive Galaxy: The Role of Ram-pressure Confinement
Min Du, Victor P. Debattista, Luis C. Ho +9
Compact ellipticals (cEs) are outliers from the scaling relations of early-type galaxies, particularly the mass-metallicity relation which is an important outcome of feedback. The…
Predicted Stellar Kinematics of a Kiloparsec-Scale Nuclear Disc (or Ring) in the Milky Way
Victor P. Debattista, Samuel W. F. Earp, Melissa Ness +1
In Debattista et al. (2015), we proposed that a kiloparsec-scale nuclear disc is responsible for the high-velocity secondary peak in the stellar line-of-sight velocity distribution…
The tilting rate of the Milky Way's disc
Samuel W. F. Earp, Victor P. Debattista, Andrea V. Macciò +1
We present tilting rates for galaxies comparable to the Milky Way (MW) in a cold dark matter cosmological hydrodynamical simulation, and compare these with the predicted tiltin…
A Kiloparsec-Scale Nuclear Stellar Disk in the Milky Way as a Possible Explanation of the High Velocity Peaks in the Galactic Bulge
Victor P. Debattista, Melissa Ness, Samuel W. F. Earp +1
The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment has measured the stellar velocities of red giant stars in the inner Milky Way. We confirm that the line of sight velocity…
The formation of stellar nuclear discs in bar-induced gas inflows
David R. Cole, Victor P. Debattista, Peter Erwin +2
The role of gas in the mass assembly at the nuclei of galaxies is still subject to some uncertainty. Stellar nuclear discs bridge the gap between the large-scale galaxy and the cen…
