Multi-wavelength cameras play an essential role in remote photoplethysmography (PPG). Whereas these are readily available for visible light, this is not the case for near infrared (NIR). We propose to modify existing RGB cameras to make them suited for NIR-PPG. In particular, we exploit the spectral leakage of the RGB channels in infrared in combination with a narrow dual-band optical filter. Such camera modification is simple, cost-effective, easy to implement, and it is shown to attain a pulse-rate extraction performance comparable to that of multiple narrow-band NIR cameras.

Introduction: Due to its favorable traits-such as lower lignin content, higher oil concentration, and increased protein levels-the genetic improvement of yellow-seeded rapeseed has attracted more attention than other rapeseed color variations. Traditionally, yellow-seeded rapeseed has been identified visually, but the complex variability in the seed coat color of has made manual identification challenging and often inaccurate. Another method, using the RGB color system, is frequently employed but is sensitive to photographic conditions, including lighting and camera settings.

The forensic examination of AIGC(Artificial Intelligence Generated Content) faces poses a contemporary challenge within the realm of color image forensics. A myriad of artificially generated faces by AIGC encompasses both global and local manipulations. While there has been noteworthy progress in the forensic scrutiny of fake faces, current research primarily focuses on the isolated detection of globally and locally manipulated fake faces, thus lacking a universally effective detection methodology.

In order to improve the accuracy of camera colorimetric characterization, a multi-input parameter optimization method was proposed in this paper. The input parameters of the traditional camera characterization method were generally RGB values; in the proposed method, the luminance parameter L was introduced in addition to RGB values, and the four-input parameters of RGBL were used as input parameters for the conversion model. In the experiment, 549 colors were uniformly selected from the Munsell Book of Color (Matte Edition), and the RGBL values and corresponding CIEXYZ values of the selected colors were measured by a spectroradiometer and three cameras, including an imaging luminance meter, respectively.

Smart cities deploy various sensors such as microphones and RGB cameras to collect data to improve the safety and comfort of the citizens. As data annotation is expensive, self-supervised methods such as contrastive learning are used to learn audio-visual representations for downstream tasks. Focusing on surveillance data, we investigate two common limitations of audio-visual contrastive learning: false negatives and the minimal sufficient information bottleneck.

Significance: Laparoscopic surgery presents challenges in localizing oncological margins due to poor contrast between healthy and malignant tissues. Optical properties can uniquely identify various tissue types and disease states with high sensitivity and specificity, making it a promising tool for surgical guidance. Although spatial frequency domain imaging (SFDI) effectively measures quantitative optical properties, its deployment in laparoscopy is challenging due to the constrained imaging environment.
