  • Amodal 3D Reconstruction for Robotic Manipulation Via Stability and Connectivity
    Amodal 3D Reconstruction for Robotic Manipulation via Stability and Connectivity William Agnew, Christopher Xie, Aaron Walsman, Octavian Murad, Caelen Wang, Pedro Domingos, Siddhartha Srinivasa University of Washington fwagnew3, chrisxie, awalsman, ovmurad, wangc21, pedrod, [email protected] Abstract: Learning-based 3D object reconstruction enables single- or few-shot estimation of 3D object models. For robotics, this holds the potential to allow model-based methods to rapidly adapt to novel objects and scenes. Existing 3D re- construction techniques optimize for visual reconstruction fidelity, typically mea- sured by chamfer distance or voxel IOU. We find that when applied to realis- tic, cluttered robotics environments, these systems produce reconstructions with low physical realism, resulting in poor task performance when used for model- based control. We propose ARM, an amodal 3D reconstruction system that in- troduces (1) a stability prior over object shapes, (2) a connectivity prior, and (3) a multi-channel input representation that allows for reasoning over relationships between groups of objects. By using these priors over the physical properties of objects, our system improves reconstruction quality not just by standard vi- sual metrics, but also performance of model-based control on a variety of robotics manipulation tasks in challenging, cluttered environments. Code is available at github.com/wagnew3/ARM. Keywords: 3D Reconstruction, 3D Vision, Model-Based 1 Introduction Manipulating previously unseen objects is a critical functionality for robots to ubiquitously function in unstructured environments. One solution to this problem is to use methods that do not rely on explicit 3D object models, such as model-free reinforcement learning [1,2]. However, quickly generalizing learned policies across wide ranges of tasks and objects remains an open problem.

  • Benefits of Continuing Fortran Standardisation Survey: Interim Results
    Benefits of continuing Fortran standardisation survey: interim results Anton Shterenlikht Standards Officer, BCS Fortran Specialist Group 31st August 2018 1 Introduction This survey has been developed by the committee of the BCS Fortran Group to quantify the value of modern Fortran standards to organisations and individuals. We wanted to know how newer Fortran standards have increased the quality of users' code, cut development costs, increased portability or performance, or whether users could attach any monetary value to the benefits enabled by modern Fortran standards. The Fortran language has been steadily developing since its origins in 1957. Many people have been working on revising the Fortran specification, resulting in Fortran 77, 90, 95, 2003, 2008 and 2018 standards. This survey is designed to find out exactly what benefits newer Fortran standards bring to the community. The results of the survey will help the Group justify continuing involvement in Fortran standardisation efforts. The results of the survey will also be shared with the ISO Fortran standardisation committee. The survey is still open at: https://goo.gl/forms/JUFUReOoVUin2m8D2 and will close on 31-DEC-2018. This interim report contains the data received by 31-AUG-2018. All questions were optional, hence the number of responses is given for each question. The percentages for each question are calculated based on the number of responses for that particular question. For fields where the respondents could enter any text, the responses are given verbatim, one response per paragraph. Multiple identical responses in such fields are indicated with numbers in brackets after such responses. We apologise for broken formatting in the longer responses.

  • (A/V Codecs) REDCODE RAW (.R3D) ARRIRAW
    What is a Codec? Codec is a portmanteau of either "Compressor-Decompressor" or "Coder-Decoder," which describes a device or program capable of performing transformations on a data stream or signal. Codecs encode a stream or signal for transmission, storage or encryption and decode it for viewing or editing. Codecs are often used in videoconferencing and streaming media solutions. A video codec converts analog video signals from a video camera into digital signals for transmission. It then converts the digital signals back to analog for display. An audio codec converts analog audio signals from a microphone into digital signals for transmission. It then converts the digital signals back to analog for playing. The raw encoded form of audio and video data is often called essence, to distinguish it from the metadata information that together make up the information content of the stream and any "wrapper" data that is then added to aid access to or improve the robustness of the stream. Most codecs are lossy, in order to get a reasonably small file size. There are lossless codecs as well, but for most purposes the almost imperceptible increase in quality is not worth the considerable increase in data size. The main exception is if the data will undergo more processing in the future, in which case the repeated lossy encoding would damage the eventual quality too much. Many multimedia data streams need to contain both audio and video data, and often some form of metadata that permits synchronization of the audio and video. Each of these three streams may be handled by different programs, processes, or hardware; but for the multimedia data stream to be useful in stored or transmitted form, they must be encapsulated together in a container format.
