Non-line-of-sight imaging has attracted more attentions for its wide applications.Even though ultrasensitive cameras or detectors with high time-resolution are available, current back-projection methods are still powerless to acquire a satisfying reconstruction of multiple hidden objects due to severe aliasing artifacts. Here, a novel back-projection method is developed to reconstruct multiple hidden objects. Our method considers decomposing all the ellipsoids in a confidence map into several clusters belonging to different objects (namely ellipsoid mode decomposition), and then reconstructing the objects individually from their ellipsoid modes by filtering and thresholding, respectively. Importantly, the simulated and experimental results demonstrate that this method can effectively eliminate the impacts of aliasing artifacts and exhibits potential advantages in separating, locating and recovering multiple hidden objects, which might be a good base for reconstructing complex non-line-ofsight scenes.

Time of flight based Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging approaches require precise calibration of illumination and detector positions on the visible scene to produce reasonable results. If this calibration error is sufficiently high, reconstruction can fail entirely without any indication to the user. In this work, we highlight the necessity of building autocalibration into NLOS reconstruction in order to handle mis-calibration. We propose a forward model of NLOS measurements that is differentiable with respect to both, the hidden scene albedo, and virtual illumination and detector positions. With only a mean squared error loss and no regularization, our model enables joint reconstruction and recovery of calibration parameters by minimizing the measurement residual using gradient descent. We demonstrate our method is able to produce robust reconstructions using simulated and real data where the calibration error applied causes other state of the art algorithms to fail.

A deep learning based non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging system is developed to image an occluded object off a scattering surface. The neural net is trained using only handwritten digits, and yet exhibits capability to reconstruct patterns distinct fro m the training set, including physical objects. It can also reconstruct a cartoon video from its scattering patterns in real time, demonstrating the robustness and generalization capability of the deep learning based approach. Several scattering surfaces with varying degree of Lambertian and specular contributions were examined experimentally; it is found that for a Lambertian surface the structural similarity index (SSIM) of reconstructed images is about 0.63, while the SSIM obtained from a scattering surface possessing a specular component can be as high as 0.93. A forward model of light transport was developed based on the Phong scattering model. Scattering patterns from Phong surfaces with different degrees of specular contribution were numerically simulated. It is found that a specular contribution of as small as 5% can enhance the SSIM from 0.83 to 0.93, consistent with the results from experimental data. Singular value spectra of the underlying transfer matrix were calculated for various Phong surfaces. As the weight and the shininess factor increase, i.e., the specular contribution increases, the singular value spectrum broadens and the 50-dB bandwidth is increased by more than 4X with a 10% specular contribution, which indicates that at the presence of even a small amount of specular contribution the NLOS measurement can retain significantly more singular value components, leading to higher reconstruction fidelity. With an ordinary camera and incoherent light source, this work enables a low-cost, real-time NLOS imaging system without the need of an explicit physical model of the underlying light transport process.
Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging is based on capturing the multi-bounce indirect reflections from the hidden objects. Active NLOS imaging systems rely on the capture of the time of flight of light through the scene, and have shown great promise for t he accurate and robust reconstruction of hidden scenes without the need for specialized scene setups and prior assumptions. Despite that existing methods can reconstruct 3D geometries of the hidden scene with excellent depth resolution, accurately recovering object textures and appearance with high lateral resolution remains an challenging problem. In this work, we propose a new problem formulation, called NLOS photography, to specifically address this deficiency. Rather than performing an intermediate estimate of the 3D scene geometry, our method follows a data-driven approach and directly reconstructs 2D images of a NLOS scene that closely resemble the pictures taken with a conventional camera from the location of the relay wall. This formulation largely simplifies the challenging reconstruction problem by bypassing the explicit modeling of 3D geometry, and enables the learning of a deep model with a relatively small training dataset. The results are NLOS reconstructions of unprecedented lateral resolution and image quality.
We develop a scannerless non-line-of-sight three dimensional imaging system based on a commercial 32x32 SPAD camera combined with a 70 ps pulsed laser. In our experiment, 1024 time histograms can be achieved synchronously in 3s with an average time r esolution of about 165 ps. The result with filtered back projection shows a discernable reconstruction while the result using virtual wave field demonstrates a better quality similar to the ones created by earlier scanning imaging systems with single pixel SPAD. Comparatively, our system has large potential advantages in frame frequency, power requirements, compactness and robustness. The research results will pave a path for scannerless non-line-of-sight three dimensional imaging application.
We propose a simple extension of residual networks that works simultaneously in multiple resolutions. Our network design is inspired by the iterative back-projection algorithm but seeks the more difficult task of learning how to enhance images. Compa red to similar approaches, we propose a novel solution to make back-projections run in multiple resolutions by using a data pipeline workflow. Features are updated at multiple scales in each layer of the network. The update dynamic through these layers includes interactions between different resolutions in a way that is causal in scale, and it is represented by a system of ODEs, as opposed to a single ODE in the case of ResNets. The system can be used as a generic multi-resolution approach to enhance images. We test it on several challenging tasks with special focus on super-resolution and raindrop removal. Our results are competitive with state-of-the-arts and show a strong ability of our system to learn both global and local image features.
