“Aptoide Malware”, “Aptoide contains virus” or “Apps in Aptoide are infected” are just three examples of the negative observations which you often find in social networks such as twitter, and posts all around the internet. But are these really true observations? Read through the article to demystify some of these observations, and if you find it useful feel free to …
The fourth Lisbon Robotics Talk is an initiative developed within the Lisbon Robotics Cluster and promoted by the Lisbon City Council. It will be held online at 15h on the 22nd September under the title “Robotics and the Pandemic”, and will gather experts in both research and industry fields to discuss how robots have been used to solve COVID-19 impact …
No passado dia 11 de Dezembro realizou-se no auditório do Centro de Conhecimento do Hospital CUF Descobertas, a 3.ª Lisboa Robotics Talk. Centrada no relevante tema “Robótica na Saúde”, dois paineis de peritos discutiram temas em torno do “Hospital 4.0 – O Estado da Arte” e “Hospital 5.0 – A Medicina do Futuro”. A iniciativa contou ainda com demonstrações da …

Abstract 3D reconstruction from multiple viewpoints is an important problem in machine vision that allows recovering tridimensional structures from multiple two-dimensional views of a given scene. Reconstruction from multiple views is conventionally achieved through a process of pixel luminance-based matching between different views. Unlike conventional machine vision methods that solve matching ambiguities by operating only on spatial constraints and luminance, …
A recently published paper by the Waseda University and the NTT Secure Platform Laboratories analysed 27 Android marketplaces evaluating security according to several parameters where the most important is the presence of malware. In the paper titled “Understanding the security management of global third-party Android marketplaces” the authors collected more than 4.7 million apps from 27 marketplaces and analysed recovered apps for …
Abstract State of the art scene flow estimation techniques are based on projections of the 3D motion on image using luminance—sampled at the frame rate of the cameras—as the principal source of information. We introduce in this paper a pure time based approach to estimate the flow from 3D point clouds primarily output by neuromorphic event-based stereo camera rigs, or …
Abstract This paper presents a novel n-ocular 3D reconstruction algorithm for event-based vision data from bio-inspired artificial retina sensors. Artificial retinas capture visual information asynchronously and encode it into streams of asynchronous spike-like pulse signals carrying information on, e.g., temporal contrast events in the scene. The precise time of the occurrence of these visual features are implicitly encoded in the …
Abstract Reproducing biological vision in a machine is a challenging problem for which scientists have just scratched the surface. Living organisms are able to per- form complex tasks in an awestruckly efficient manner. The stereovision is one of these complex mechanisms that computer scientists try to replicate with high resolution cameras. This thesis takes on the stereovision problem in a …
The fruit and vegetable processing market is growing exponentially driven by the increasing demand of frozen products, juices and ready-to-use products. In this context, industries that process very sensitive fruits are facing great difficulties/challenges to increase their competitiveness. Indeed, this segment is unable to fully benefit from the industrial technologies like automation and artificial vision – already used in other …
