Projects

Welcome to the Projects section, where we showcase applications and tools that demonstrate our research in visual computing. Explore web and software applications that bring our algorithms to life.

PicArrange

Sort and explore your images on your Mac by content and color: Find images easily using visual examples or text descriptions.

ColorTransferLab

ColorTransferLab is a web-based application designed to simplify and standardize the application and evaluation of diverse Color and Style Transfer Algorithms.

Navigu

Visually search and explore huge dynamic image collections like Wikimedia.

GPR1200

A challenging benchmark for general-purpose content-based image retrieval

Kiano

Your photos neatly organized - See all photos from your Mac photo library on a visually sorted image map. Find your photos by browsing or search for similars.

The Image Sorting Experiment

Maximizing Image Viewing Efficiency: How Visual Sorting Can Help

Headset Removal for Gaze Contact in XR Applications

We are sharing the HEADSET database, a new multimodal database that consists of colored 3D point clouds, textured 3D meshes, light field (LF) images, and multi-view RGB-D images.

Steered-Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE)

Steered Mixtures-of-Experts (SMoE) is a regression framework for modeling and compression of 2D images, higher-dimensional imagery, including compression of light fields and light-field video, and 3D scenes.

Real-Time Light Field Reconstruction and Neural Rendering

The overall aim of this PhD project is to advance the field of immersive telepresence by developing and evaluating novel, learning based methods for real-time immersive view synthesis from a single image.

wikiview.net

Wikiview revolutionizes image search by organizing Wikimedia Commons images on an interactive 2D map based on visual similarity, offering a unique and intuitive browsing experience.

Director’s Cut

We are sharing the Director’s Cut database, a combined dataset for visual attention analysis in cinematic VR content. This page contains materials and related papers for the Director’s Cut research.

ImageX

ImageX is a powerful cross-platform tool leveraging neural networks to visually explore and organize image collections through advanced feature analysis and dynamic 2D projections.

Akiwi

Akiwi.eu makes keywording any image a breeze, letting anyone quickly generate spot-on keywords with just a simple drag-and-drop.

picsbuffet

picsbuffet was the first visual browsing system for exploring millions of stock photos, allowing users to navigate images by zooming and dragging, similar to Google Maps.

Apetopia

Apetopia is a science game using player choices to model better color metrics. Apetopia was started in 2013 as a student project.

ImageSorter

Use our discontinued ImageSorter software to view hundreds of your images arranged by visual similarity.

Neural Art

Neural Art allowed simple sketches to be transformed to Images using a GAN, which are then transformed into a "painting" using a neural network.

PalmSearch

Discover images faster with PalmSearch: smart clustering turns vague keywords into precise search results.

PicsLikeThat

PicsLikeThat was the first image search system capable of learning useful image rationships by analyzing visual content, keywords and user interactions.

ImageJ Plugins

Here you will find our plugins for the image processing software ImageJ, such as the 3D Color Inspector, Volume Viewer, and others.

DeepStereoBrush

We introduce a novel interactive depth map creation approach for image sequences which uses depth-scribbles as input at user-defined keyframes. These scribbled depth values are then propagated within these keyframes and across the entire sequence.
