Optical fiber shape sensing technology provides an excellent solution for the tracking and guiding of minimally invasive surgical instruments. However, when some large-deformed instrument operation…
Modeling event patterns is a central task in a wide range of disciplines. In applications such as studying human activity patterns, events often arrive clustered with sporadic and long periods of i…
Point cloud instance segmentation has achieved huge progress with the emergence of deep learning. However, these methods are usually data-hungry with expensive and time-consuming dense point cloud …
We consider the estimation of densities in multiple subpopulations, where the available sample size in each subpopulation greatly varies. This problem occurs in epidemiology, for example, where dif…
Highly coherent lasers with spectral hyperpurity can further advance the fields of science and engineering. Especially, a light source with controllable frequency domain parameters can be adapted t…
Problem definition: In the blood-donor-management problem, the blood bank incentivizes donors to donate, given blood inventory levels. We propose a model to optimize such incentivization schemes un…
An advanced light source at blue-green waveband is the key to improve the link-distance and communication performance of an underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system. This work presen…
In this paper, we demonstrate up to 260-GBaud single-wavelength coherent transmission by employing an optical transmitter based on two wide-bandwidth devices: a novel 260-GS/s arbitrary waveform ge…
Ultrafast lasers based on nonlinear polarization rotation has attracted significant attentions, where artificial saturable absorption is induced by Kerr effect. Due to polarization-dependent device…
The intrinsic spectrum that results from the coupling of spontaneous emission in a laser cavity can determine the energy concentration and coherence of lasers, which is crucial for optical high-pre…
