Academic News

(7/16/2006) I have just released the first version of software developed to localize a vehicle based on various sensor data.  You may find the software on the Trajectory Smoother Software Homepage.  This has been released under the MIT license, which allows almost completely unrestricted use of the software.

(6/27/2006) I just returned from CVPR 2006, where a paper on some joint work I did with Steve Seitz, Brian Curless, Daniel Scharstein, and Rick Szeliski was presented by Steve and Brian.  The title of the paper is A Comparison and Evaluation of Multi-View Stereo Reconstruction Algorithms.  The related homepage for the project is the Multi-View Stereo Evaluation webpage.  The research page contains more details.

Maps

I am interested in maps and have generated several from freely-available online data.  These are very high resolution images, suitable for printing out.  This means they are also quite large (13 MB apiece).

A digital elevation model, rendered from white to black with a non-linear color scaling to accentuate the detail in the lowlands.  Population density and inland waterways are overlaid.  The most interesting thing about this map to me is the differences in the settlement patterns in Britain and the Continent.  The population density starts at just 50 persons per sq. km and doubles with each of 10 color steps.
