Reducing acquisition time and radiation damage: data‐driven subsampling for spectro‐microscopy

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
Data‐driven sparse acquisition in spectro‐microscopy reduces acquisition time and radiation dose while preserving information.Spectro‐microscopy is an experimental technique which can be used to observe spatial variations in chemical state and changes in chemical state over time or under experimental conditions.

Multidimensional unipolar IRT and applications to the measurement of print exposure

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Item response theory (IRT) has been a prominent modelling framework in educational and psychological measurement. Traditional IRT models are bipolar, commonly assuming symmetric measurement link functions and symmetric trait distributions over a latent continuum unbounded at both ends. However, many measured constructs, such as print exposure,

Variable‐Rate Texture Compression: Real‐Time Rendering with JPEG

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Although variable‐rate compressed image formats such as JPEG are widely used to efficiently encode images, they have not found their way into real‐time rendering due to special requirements such as random access to individual texels. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of variable‐rate texture compression on modern GPUs using the ...

UrbanClipAtlas: A Visual Analytics Framework for Event and Scene Retrieval in Urban Videos

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Extracting actionable insights from long‐duration urban videos is often labor‐intensive: analysts must manually sift through raw footage to pinpoint target events or uncover broader behavioral trends. In this work, we present UrbanClipAtlas, a visual analytics system for exploring long urban videos recorded at street intersections ...
