Greetings, Fellow Earthlings
Author: John (Jack) Messerly
Welcome to my after-hours sample work page, where I try to talk about interesting, tangible problems that rhyme with what I solve in my day-to-day work. I focus on the problems themselves and handcrafted solutions to them, rather than writing about engineering concepts in an educational way (like in a towardsdatascience.com article), or research in a formal way (like in a conference paper). I hope you like them!
Colored Lighting Removal with VAEs
An article on how to use a VAE and GIMP to efficiently remove complex lighting effects (that white balance algorithms may struggle with).
Geometric Priors in Bundle Adjustment
How to add “geometric prior” constraints to a bundle adjuster in ceres C++, in order to design structure-from-motion around realistic simplifying assumptions, and reduce global estimation error.
