Optimization of Ultra-Broadband Optical Wavelength Conversion in Nonlinear Multi-Modal Silicon-On-Insulator Waveguides
Ultra-broadband wavelength conversion is identified as one of the key issues in future high capacity, flexible optical networks. In this contribution, methods to optimize the design of a multi-modal high-nonlinear SOI waveguide to achieve...
Eight-channel SiNx microring–resonator based photonic biosensor for label-free fluid analysis in the optical C-band
A lab-on-a-chip multichannel sensing platform for biomedical analysis based on optical silicon nitride (SiNx) mi- croring-resonators (MRR) was established. The resonators were surface functionalized and finally combined with a microfluidic...
Automatic Reconstruction of Semantic 3D Models from 2D Floor Plans
Digitalization of existing buildings and the creation of 3D BIM models is crucial for many tasks. Of particular importance are floor plans, which contain information about building layouts and are vital for construction, maintenance or...
Accurate human body reconstruction for volumetric video
In this work, we enhance a professional end-to-end volumetric video production pipeline to achieve high-fidelity human body reconstruction using only passive cameras.We introduce and optimize deep learning based multi-view stereo networks for...
Dynamic Multi-View Scene Reconstruction Using Neural Implicit Surface
In this paper, we propose a template-free method to reconstruct surface geometry and appearance using neural implicit representations from multi-view videos. We leverage topology-aware deformation and the signed distance field to learn complex...

Optimizing Explanations by Network Canonization and Hyperparameter Search
Rule-based and modified backpropagation XAI methods struggle with innovative layer building blocks and implementation-invariance issues.
In this work we propose canonizations for popular deep neural network architectures and...
Increasing the power and spectral efficiencies of an OFDM-based VLC system through multi-objective optimization
In order to minimize power usage and maximize spectral efficiency in visible light communication (VLC), we use a multi-objective optimization algorithm and compare DC-biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM) with constant envelope OFDM (CE-OFDM)...
Comparison of Polarization Diversity Configurations of SOI Strip Waveguide-Based Dual-Polarization Wavelength Conversion for S-Band Transmission
Using wavelength conversion of our fabricated SOI strip waveguide, we compared experimentally the polarization-insensitive configuration toward S-band real-time transmission. It is found that parallel configuration is 3dB superior in in-out...
Experimental Demonstration of Optical Modulation Format Identification Using SOI-based Photonic Reservoir
We experimentally show modulation format identification in the optical domain using Silicon-on-Insulator-based Photonic-Integrated-Circuit (PIC) reservoir. Identification of 32 GBd single-polarization signals of 4QAM, 16QAM, 32QAM and 64QAM is...
