RadGS-Reg: Registering Spine CT with Biplanar X-rays via Joint 3D Radiative Gaussians Reconstruction and 3D/3D Registration

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Ao Shen, Ao Shen, , , | Summary: Computed Tomography (CT)/X-ray registration in image-guided navigation remains challenging because of its stringent requirements for high accuracy and real-time performance. Traditional "render and compare" methods, relying on iterative projection and comparison, suffer from spatial information loss and domain gap. […]

New Interpretations of the Cosmological Preference for a Negative Neutrino Mass

Kavli Affiliate: Peter Graham | Summary:Recent observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) show some tension with a $Λ$CDM cosmology. For one, the cosmological parameters determined by the CMB are at odds with the expansion history determined by latest BAO measurements. In addition, the combined data has placed uncomfortably strong […]

Re-Densification Meets Cross-Scale Propagation: Real-Time Neural Compression of LiDAR Point Clouds

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Pengpeng Yu, Pengpeng Yu, , , | Summary: LiDAR point clouds are fundamental to various applications, yet high-precision scans incur substantial storage and transmission overhead. Existing methods typically convert unordered points into hierarchical octree or voxel structures for dense-to-sparse predictive coding. However, the extreme sparsity of geometric […]
