We present EgoNeRF, a practical solution to reconstruct large-scale real-world environments for VR assets. Given a few seconds of casually captured 360 video, EgoNeRF can efficiently build neural radiance fields. Motivated by the recent acceleration of NeRF using feature grids, we adopt spherical coordinate instead of conventional Cartesian coordinate. Cartesian feature grid is inefficient to represent large-scale unbounded scenes because it has a spatially uniform resolution, regardless of distance from viewers. The spherical parameterization better aligns with the rays of egocentric images, and yet enables factorization for performance enhancement. However, the naive spherical grid suffers from singularities at two poles, and also cannot represent unbounded scenes. To avoid singularities near poles, we combine two balanced grids, which results in a quasi-uniform angular grid. We also partition the radial grid exponentially and place an environment map at infinity to represent unbounded scenes. Furthermore, with our resampling technique for grid-based methods, we can increase the number of valid samples to train NeRF volume. We extensively evaluate our method in our newly introduced synthetic and real-world egocentric 360 video datasets, and it consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance.

This work considers an IoT network comprising of several IoT sensor nodes (SNs), a passive intelligent reflecting surface (IRS), and a fusion center (FC). Each IoT SN observes multiple physical phenomena, and transmits its observations to the FC for post processing. This necessitates the need for efficient preprocessing of each SN’s observations to combat wireless fading effects and optimize transmit power utilization. In this context, this paper presents a novel approach that jointly designs the transmit precoding matrix (TPM) for IoT SNs and optimizes the phase reflection matrix (PRM) for the IRS. The resulting non-convex optimization problem is tackled through an alternating optimization framework, where the individual TPM and PRM design subproblems are further addressed using the majorization minimization (MM) framework. Notably, the proposed solution yields closed-form expressions for TPM and PRM in each MM iteration, making it particularly suitable for low-cost IoT SNs. Numerical results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach by showcasing significant enhancements in estimation performance compared to IoT networks lacking an IRS component.

Photonic metasurfaces are efficiently and accurately simulated using a surface integral equation (SIE) solver. This solver models the metasurface as an infinitesimally thin sheet on which generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) are enforced. GSTCs connect the electromagnetic fields on both sides of the metasurface using equivalent susceptibility tensors and avoid modelling of geometrically intricate metasurface unit cells by the SIE solver. Susceptibility tensors are obtained from the transmission and the reflection coefficients associated with a unit cell. A numerical example, involving a metasurface that supports high-quality factor resonances and excited by a Gaussian beam, is presented to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed approach.

As a novel 2D material, MoS 2 has shown excellent electrical properties and resistive switching characteristics to work as a switching layer for non-volatile memory. In this work, we drop cast the MoS 2 solution to prepare the thin film and deposit an interfacial layer of Al 2 O 3 . We demonstrate the proposed memristive device with Cu/Al 2 O 3 /MoS 2 /Pt structure to work as an artificial synapse. The device shows a steady resistive switching behavior with the SET and RESET voltages of 1.3 V and -0.5 V, respectively. We further demonstrate the synapse behavior via a Hopfield Neural Network (HNN) and achieve image recognition and reconstruction with a high accuracy of 96% after 15 training epochs.
