As a neuromorphic sensor with high temporal resolution, spike cameras offer notable advantages over traditional cameras in high-speed vision applications such as high-speed optical estimation, depth estimation, and object tracking. Inspired by the success of the spike camera, we proposed Spike-NeRF, the first Neural Radiance Field derived from spike data, to achieve 3D reconstruction and novel viewpoint synthesis of high-speed scenes. Instead of the multi-view images at the same time of NeRF, the inputs of Spike-NeRF are continuous spike streams captured by a moving spike camera in a very short time. To reconstruct a correct and stable 3D scene from high-frequency but unstable spike data, we devised spike masks along with a distinctive loss function. We evaluate our method qualitatively and numerically on several challenging synthetic scenes generated by blender with the spike camera simulator. Our results demonstrate that Spike-NeRF produces more visually appealing results than the existing methods and the baseline we proposed in high-speed scenes. Our code and data will be released soon.
As a forerunner in 5G technologies, Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) will be inevitably coexisting with the legacy Long-Term Evolution (LTE) system. Thus, it is imperative for NB-IoT to mitigate LTE interference. By virtue of the strong temporal correlation of the NB-IoT signal, this letter develops a sparsity adaptive algorithm to recover the NB-IoT signal from legacy LTE interference, by combining $K$-means clustering and sparsity adaptive matching pursuit (SAMP). In particular, the support of the NB-IoT signal is first estimated coarsely by $K$-means clustering and SAMP algorithm without sparsity limitation. Then, the estimated support is refined by a repeat mechanism. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed algorithm in terms of recovery probability and bit error rate, compared with competing algorithms.
