In this paper, we propose a bimodal 3D facial recognition method aimed at increasing the recognition rate and reducing the effect of illumination, pose, expression, ages, and occlusion on facial recognition. There are two features extracted from the mult...

Rural areas cool off by night but built-up urban areas lack similar relief and may threaten vulnerable people?s health during heat waves. Temperature varies within a city due to the heterogenous nature of urban environments, but official measurement stat...

This study proposes real-time haze removal from a single image using normalised pixel-wise dark-channel prior (DCP). DCP assumes that at least one RGB colour channel within most local patches in a haze-free image has a low-intensity value. Since the spat...

Pluvial flooding is caused by localized intense rainfall and the flood models used to assess it are normally applied on a city (or part of a city) scale using local rainfall records and a high resolution digital elevation model (DEM). Here, we attempt to...
