Donker, Pim (author)This thesis proposes a method of detecting autonomic neuropathy in low-income countries using an infrared camera. Access to healthcare is often limited in low-income countries delaying the detection of neuropathy. If neuropathy can be detected in the earliest stage, often the autonomic state, damage to motor and sensory nerves can be prevented....master thesis 2024

Xia, Z. (author), Booij, O. (author), Kooij, J.F.P. (author)We propose a novel end-to-end method for cross-view pose estimation. Given a ground-level query image and an aerial image that covers the query's local neighborhood, the 3 Degrees-of-Freedom camera pose of the query is estimated by matching its image descriptor to descriptors of local regions within the aerial image. The...journal article 2024

Cosmi, V. (author), Wang, B. (author), Goorden, M.C. (author), Beekman, F.J. (author)Background: Gamma camera imaging, including single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), is crucial for research, diagnostics, and radionuclide therapy. Gamma cameras are predominantly based on arrays of photon multipliers tubes (PMTs) that read out NaI(Tl) scintillation crystals. In this way, standard gamma cameras can localize ɣ-rays...journal article 2024

Hol, Thirza (author)Recently, the world population has crossed 8 million people and it is estimated that out of every three persons two cannot afford surgery (Meara et al., 2015a). Surgery is the primary treatment for one-third of the diseases (Quene et al., 2022), but since 6 percent of all procedures are performed in the poorest countries, where more than one...master thesis 2023

van Geerenstein, Mathijs (author)3D object detection models that exploit both LiDAR and camera sensor features are top performers in large-scale autonomous driving benchmarks. A transformer is a popular network architecture used for this task, in which so-called object queries act as candidate objects. Initializing these object queries based on current sensor inputs leads to...master thesis 2023

Ye, Hanting (author), Lan, G. (author), Jia, Jinyuan (author), Wang, Q. (author)Smartphones are moving towards the fullscreen design for better user experience. This trend forces front cameras to be placed under screen, leading to Under-Screen Cameras (USC). Accordingly, a small area of the screen is made translucent to allow light to reach the USC. In this paper, we utilize the translucent screen's features to...book chapter 2023
