What it does

Last year at CVPR 2018, I became interested in the Apolloscape dataset and the localization task challenge that was announced for ECCV 2018. I dived into the problem: exploring the Apolloscape dataset and using PoseNet with geometric loss functions [1,2] for direct pose prediction from monocular images. As a result, I got more interested in geometric approaches and multi-view geometry for computer vision tasks. While direct deep-learning methods somewhat works for 6DOF pose regression, they are not yet precise, and research papers increasingly use a combination of the following methods: Structure from Motion (SfM) techniques, geometric-based constraints, pose graph optimizations [15] and 3D…from capsulesbot.com

  • 3D Terrain simulation for hiking, skiing etc.2025 · github.com · ▲150

    I'm working on a GPS track visualizer for quite some time. It shines in hilly and mountaineous terrain (where a 3D view makes more sense), but it also offers quite a lot of Strava-like features (statistics etc.). You can upload your GPX and FIT files manually, or sync directly with Garmin, Coros and Polar. See https://cubetrek.com for the live app and check out some examples there. It's free and opens source. Also, anyone who likes to work with 3D visualizations (especially Babylon.js), let me know if you like to help polish this thing further.

    Benchmarking VLMs vs. Traditional OCR2025 · getomni.ai · ▲146

    Vision models have been gaining popularity as a replacement for traditional OCR. Especially with Gemini 2.0 becoming cost competitive with the cloud platforms. We've been continuously evaluating different models since we released the Zerox package last year (https://github.com/getomni-ai/zerox). And we wanted to put some numbers behind it. So we’re open sourcing our internal OCR benchmark + evaluation datasets. Full writeup + data explorer here: https://getomni.ai/ocr-benchmark Github: https://github.com/getomni-ai/benchmark Huggingface:…

  • Rendering One Million Datapoints with D3 and WebGL2020 · blog.scottlogic.com · ▲200

    Over the weekend I was discussing the latest news relating to open weights with some of my non-techie friends. After 30 mins of waffling, I realised it is quite a long and interesting story, with many twists and turns. I've always wanted to create a 'long scroll' story, but have never found a suitable story to tell. This felt like a fun weekend project to undertake. The story itself doesn't have too many scroll effects (which is probably a good thing), it was more about trying to tell a story with a certain style that wouldn't really fit on my personal blog. Would love to get your feedback…

  • I've made a Monte-Carlo raytracer for glTF scenes in WebGPU2024 · github.com · ▲131

    This is a GPU "software" raytracer (i.e. using manual ray-scene intersections and not RTX) written using the WebGPU API that renders glTF scenes. It supports many materials, textures, material & normal mapping, and heavily relies on multiple importance sampling to speed up convergence.
