  • Make3d: Learning 3D Scene Structure from a Single Still Image Ashutosh Saxena, Min Sun and Andrew Y
    1 Make3D: Learning 3D Scene Structure from a Single Still Image Ashutosh Saxena, Min Sun and Andrew Y. Ng Abstract— We consider the problem of estimating detailed 3-d structure from a single still image of an unstructured environment. Our goal is to create 3-d models which are both quantitatively accurate as well as visually pleasing. For each small homogeneous patch in the image, we use a Markov Random Field (MRF) to infer a set of “plane parame- ters” that capture both the 3-d location and 3-d orientation of the patch. The MRF, trained via supervised learning, models both image depth cues as well as the relationships between different parts of the image. Other than assuming that the environment is made up of a number of small planes, our model makes no explicit assumptions about the structure of the scene; this enables the algorithm to capture much more detailed 3-d structure than does prior art, and also give a much richer experience in the 3-d flythroughs created using image-based rendering, even for scenes with significant non-vertical structure. Using this approach, we have created qualitatively correct 3-d models for 64.9% of 588 images downloaded from the internet. We have also extended our model to produce large scale 3d models from a few images.1 Fig. 1. (a) An original image.

  • Dear Colleague Letter: OFR-NSF Partnership in Support of Research Collaborations in Finance Informatics
    National Science Foundation 4201 Wilson Boulevard Arlington, Virginia 22230 NSF 13-093 Dear Colleague Letter: Date: May 14, 2013 The Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Office of Financial Research (OFR) of the Department of Treasury share an interest in advancing basic and applied research centered on Computational and Information Processing Approaches to and Infrastructure in support of, Financial Research and Analysis and Management (CIFRAM). The complexity of modern financial instruments presents many challenges in recognizing and regulating Systemic Risk. The topic has been the subject of a recent National Academy of Science Report titled "Technical Capabilities Necessary for Systemic Risk Regulation: Summary of a Workshop." The CISE directorate and the Computing Community Consortium have sponsored workshops on Knowledge Representation and Information Management for Financial Risk Management and on Next-Generation Financial Cyberinfrastructure aimed at identifying research opportunities and challenges in CIFRAM. NSF and OFR have established a collaboration (hereafter referred to as CIFRAM) to identify and fund a small number of exploratory but potentially transformative CIFRAM research proposals. The collaboration enables OFR to support a broad range of financial research related to OFR’s mission, including research on potential threats to financial stability. It also assists OFR with the goal of promoting and encouraging collaboration between the government, the private sector, and academic institutions interested in furthering financial research and analysis. The collaboration enables the NSF to nurture fundamental CISE research on a variety of topics including algorithms, informatics, knowledge representation, and data analytics needed to advance the current state of the art in financial research and analysis.
