Non-line-of-sight imaging using data-driven approaches
Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging is desirable for its many potential applications such as detecting a vehicle occluded by a building's corner or imaging through fog. Traditional NLOS imaging techniques solve an inverse problem and are limited by computational complexity and forward model accuracy. …

Non-line-of-sight imaging using multi-bounce light
Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging techniques produce images from light that has travelled from the scene of interest to the observer via indirect paths which typically include multiple reflections. Such techniques can be particularly useful when the direct line of sight between the observer and the …
