Learning Camera Miscalibration Detection

Self-diagnosis and self-repair are some of the key challenges in deploying robotic platforms for long-term real-world applications. One of the issues that can occur to a robot is miscalibration of its sensors due to aging, environmental transients, or external disturbances. Precise calibration lies at the core of a variety of applications, due to the need to accurately perceive the world. However, while a lot of work has focused on calibrating the sensors, not much has been done towards identifying when a sensor needs to be recalibrated. This paper focuses on a data-driven approach to learn the detection of miscalibration in vision sensors, specifically RGB cameras. Our contributions include a proposed miscalibration metric for RGB cameras and a novel semi-synthetic dataset generation pipeline based on this metric. Additionally, by training a deep convolutional neural network, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our pipeline to identify whether a recalibration of the camera's intrinsic parameters is required or not. The code is available at http://github.com/ethz-asl/camera_miscalib_detection.

On hyperderivatives of single-cuspidal Drinfeld modular forms with A-expansions

We show that the Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansion that have been constructed by the author are precisely the hyperderivatives of the subfamily of single-cuspidal Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions that remain modular after hyperdifferentiation. In addition, we show that Drinfeld-Poincaré series display a similar behavior with respect to hyperdifferentiation, giving indirect evidence that the Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions are Drinfeld-Poincaré series. The Drinfeld-Poincaré series that we consider generalize previous examples of such series by Gekeler, and Gerritzen and van der Put.

On symmetric powers of $τ$-recurrent sequences and deformations of Eisenstein series

We prove the equality of several $τ$-recurrent sequences, which were first considered by Pellarin, and which have close connections to Drinfeld vectorial modular forms. Our result has several consequences: an $A$-expansion for the $l^\text{th}$ power ($1 \leq l \leq q$) of the deformation of the weight 2 Eisenstein series; relations between Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions; a new proof of relations between special values of Pellarin $L$-series.

On the action of Hecke operators on Drinfeld modular forms

In this paper we determine the explicit structure of the semisimple part of the Hecke algebra that acts on Drinfeld modular forms of full level modulo T . We use computations of the Hecke action modulo T to find Drinfeld modular forms that cannot be eigenforms. Finally, we conjecture that the Hecke algebra that acts on Drinfeld modular forms of full level is not smooth for large weight.

A-expansions of Drinfeld modular forms

We introduce the notion of Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions, where instead of the usual Fourier expansion in $t^n$ ($t$ being the uniformizer at `infinity'), parametrized by $n \in \mathbb{N}$, we look at expansions in $t_a$, parametrized by $a \in A = \Fq [T]$. We construct an infinite family of eigenforms with $A$-expansions. Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions have many desirable properties that allow us to explicitly compute the Hecke action. The applications of our results include: (i) various congruences between Drinfeld eigenforms; (ii) the computation of the eigensystems of Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions; (iii) examples of failure of multiplicity one result, as well as a restrictive multiplicity one result for Drinfeld modular forms with $A$-expansions; (iv) examples of eigenforms that can be represented as `non-trivial' products of eigenforms; (v) an extension of a result of Böckle and Pink concerning the Hecke properties of the space of cuspidal modulo double-cuspidal forms for $Γ_1(T)$ to the groups $\text{GL}_2 (\Fq [T])$ and $Γ_0(T)$.
