🔬 MV+ (Machine Vision Plus)

A Novel Paradigm for Advanced Computer Vision

MV+ (Machine Vision Plus) represents a groundbreaking approach to building computer vision models that revolutionize how we extract and utilize visual information. Unlike traditional computer vision systems that rely solely on spatial features, MV+ introduces a paradigm shift by combining spatial and structural features derived from transient images (1D time-resolved data) to make more accurate and robust inferences.
