    Assistive Visual Tool: Enhancing Safe Navigation with Video Remapping in AR Headsets
    (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2025) Sadeghzadeh, Arezoo; Islam, Md Baharul; Uddin, Md Nur; Aydin, Tarkan; DelBue, A; Canton, C; Pont-Tuset, J; Tommasi, T; Bahcesehir University; State University System of Florida; Florida Gulf Coast University
    Visual Field Loss (VFL) is characterized by blind spots or scotomas that poses detrimental impact on fundamental movement activities of individuals. Addressing the challenges (e.g., low video quality, content loss, high levels of contradiction, and limited mobility assessment) faced by existing Extended Reality (XR) systems as vision aids, we introduce a groundbreaking method that enriches the real-time navigation using Augmented Reality (AR) glasses. Our novel vision aid employs advanced video processing techniques to enhance visual perception in individuals with moderate to severe VFL, bridging the gap to healthy vision. A unique optimal video remapping function, tailored to our selected AR glasses characteristics, dynamically maps live video content to the largest intact region of the Visual Field (VF) map. Our method preserves video quality, minimizing blurriness and distortion. Through a comprehensive empirical user study involving 29 subjects with artificially induced scotomas, statistical analyses of object counting and multi-tasking walking track tests demonstrate the promising performance of our method in enhancing visual awareness and navigation capability in real-time.

    DeepPyNet: A Deep Feature Pyramid Network for Optical Flow Estimation
    (IEEE, 2021) Jeny, Afsana Ahsan; Islam, Md Baharul; Aydin, Tarkan; Cree, MJ; Bahcesehir University
    Recent advances in optical flow prediction have been made possible by using feature pyramids and iterative refining. Though downsampling in feature pyramids may cause foreground items to merge with the background, the iterative processing could be incorrect in optical flow experiments. Particularly the outcomes of the movement of narrow and tiny objects can be more invisible in the flow scene. We introduce a novel method called DeepPyNet for optical flow estimation that includes feature extractor, multi-channel cost volume, and flow decoder. In this method, we propose a deep recurrent feature pyramid-based network for the end-to-end optical flow estimation. The feature extraction from each pixel of the feature map keeps essential information without modifying the feature receptive field. Then, a multi-scale 4 Dc orrelation volume is built from the visual similarity of each pair of pixels. Finally, we utilize the multi-scale correlation volumes to continuously update the flow field through an iterative recurrent method. Experimental results demonstrate that DeepPyNet significantly eliminates flow errors and provides state-of-the-art performance in various datasets. Moreover, DeepPyNet is less complex and uses only 6.1M parameters 81% and 35% smaller than the popular FlowNet and PWC-Net+, respectively.
