Hierarchical Progressive Stereo Extrinsic Self-Calibration with Stereo Super-Resolution and Multi-Level Correspondence Filtering

This paper proposes a Hierarchical Progressive Self-Calibration (HPSC) framework that jointly addresses resolution degradation, depth-dependent uncertainty, and dynamic object interference in autonomous driving stereo cameras through a unified three-stage pipeline integrating stereo super-resolution, depth-stratified correspondence pruning, and hierarchical dynamic suppression.

Edge Weight Concentration Overcomes Node Degree Blindness in Graph Based Network Intrusion Detection

This paper demonstrates that in graph-based network intrusion detection, edge-weight concentration features outperform traditional node-degree metrics when network address translation (NAT) collapses multiple hosts into few identities, revealing that these two feature families are complementary along the identity-collapse axis and that a compact, leakage-free graph-context feature set can achieve near-baseline performance with significantly reduced training costs.

Encoder-based 3D GAN inversion: A systematic review

This systematic review of 33 studies reveals that while encoder-based 3D GAN inversion enables real-time reconstruction and editing primarily on high-end hardware using EG3D-based architectures, its widespread adoption is currently limited by challenges in balancing speed with 3D consistency and a lack of robust geometric evaluation beyond frontal face datasets.
