Dissertations

Deep Learning has spanned a variety of applications in computer vision as well as computational astronomy. These two aspects obtained similar data structure, therefore, their solutions can be transferable between each other. This dissertation look into two video-related tasks in computer vision and propose a novel problem in computational astronomy.

Specifically, acquiring an in-depth understanding of videos has been a cornerstone problem in computer vision. This problem has been studied by various researchers from different perspectives, among which video prediction has attracted much attention. Video prediction aims to generate the pixels of future frames given a sequence of context frames. …
