Smoothing and filtering two-dimensional sequences are fundamental tasks in fields such as computer vision. Conventional filtering algorithms often rely on the selection of the filtering window, limiting their applicability in certain scenarios. To this end, we propose a novel Two-Dimensional Smoothing (TDS) algorithm for the smoothing and filtering problem of two-dimensional sequences. Typically, the TDS algorithm does not require assumptions about the type of noise distribution. It is simple a…

Die Songs einer bis vor kurzem völlig unbekannten Band klingen nach herkömmlichem Indie-Rock. Das Problem: Sie sollen nicht von menschlichen Urhebern stammen.

Sometimes it’s the best choice to build it in house.
Sometimes it’s the best choice to code a little closer to the metal.
