Abstract

Structured-light three-dimensional (3D) imaging can achieve 3D shape of a stationary object via one or more pixelated array cameras with phase-shifting illumination. In order to extend 3D imaging to moving scenarios, we propose a 3D imaging method with double projection of a single-frame modulated light pattern and a sampling pattern. It can continuously image the moving 3D scene by making multi-pixel detector axial flat brush scan along the motion axis. Utilizing spatial multiplexing for multiple single-pixel imaging, each single-pixel does not need to keep staring at some part of the object, avoiding motion blur problem. The performance of our method has been demonstrated by numerical simulations. Given this, we believe that the technique paves the way to practical applications including product line 3D monitoring.

VideoPulse: Neonatal heart rate and peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) estimation from contact free video

Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) enables contact free monitoring of vital signs and is especially valuable for neonates, since conventional methods often require sustained skin contact with adhesive probes that can irritate fragile skin and increase infection control burden. We present VideoPulse, a neonatal dataset and an end to end pipeline that estimates neonatal heart rate and peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) from facial video. VideoPulse contains 157 recordings totaling 2.6 hours from 52 neonates with diverse face orientations. Our pipeline performs face alignment and artifact aware supervision using denoised pulse oximeter signals, then applies 3D CNN backbones for heart rate and SpO2 regression with label distribution smoothing and weighted regression for SpO2. Predictions are produced in 2 second windows. On the NBHR neonatal dataset, we obtain heart rate MAE 2.97 bpm using 2 second windows (2.80 bpm at 6 second windows) and SpO2 MAE 1.69 percent. Under cross dataset evaluation, the NBHR trained heart rate model attains 5.34 bpm MAE on VideoPulse, and fine tuning an NBHR pretrained SpO2 model on VideoPulse yields MAE 1.68 percent. These results indicate that short unaligned neonatal video segments can support accurate heart rate and SpO2 estimation, enabling low cost non invasive monitoring in neonatal intensive care.

Synthetic Fingerprints for Children Under Four: Generation and Biometric Evaluation

Fingerprint recognition in children under four is of interest for longitudinal identity applications, but research in this age range is constrained by the limited availability and sensitivity of real fingerprint data. Synthetic data may provide a useful complementary resource if generated samples are carefully evaluated for biometric quality, similarity to the real training data, and identity diversity. This paper presents an evaluation and selection protocol for synthetic fingerprints generated from a small pediatric dataset. The protocol was applied to 32,000 candidates produced by an age-conditioned generator fine-tuned with 205 fingerprints from nine children. Candidates were evaluated using NFIQ 2, NBIS minutiae extrac-tion and matching, fingerprint-pattern classification, similarity to the complete real reference set, and pairwise similarity among retained synthetic samples. After candidate filtering and a final symmetric pairwise verification, 1,985 synthetic fingerprints remained. The youngest age group continued to produce retained samples within the sampling budget, whereas the oldest original age group produced 24 retained prints. A data-derived two-group age representation improved pattern-distribution agreement for the younger group. Repeated renderings of fixed synthetic iden-tities produced minutiae-based mated scores comparable to the real mated scores, although a DINOv2 texture representation showed substantially greater within-generator similarity. The results indicate that synthetic pediatric fingerprints can support controlled research use, but their evaluation should include both real-to-synthetic similarity and synthetic-to-synthetic diversity, and conclusions should remain specific to the matchers and measurements used.

Adaptive Color Grading

Independent control of tonescale regions (e.g., shadows, highlights) is essential for painters, photographers and cinematographers to bring 2D images to life. In image manipulation software this is most directly addressed by color grading modules, which use intensity thresholds to segment distinct illumination regions for local manipulation. In this work we develop an open source color grading tool and use it to annotate a large dataset of video frames with tonescale region thresholds. Using these thresholds we conduct modeling experiments with strategies based on both practitioners' conventional wisdom and machine learning. Results show that K-nearest neighbors is an effective prediction strategy, outperforming state-of-the-art end-to-end methods for image enhancement. This outcome demonstrates the benefit of focusing on a compact set of core parameters when modeling creative stylization processes. Our adaptive color grading interface and data are available at https://github.com/SamsungLabs/adaptive-color-grading.
