    Abstract We propose Hyper-Dimensional Function Encoding (HDFE). Given samples of a continuous object (e.g. a function), HDFE produces an explicit vector representation of the given object, invariant to the sample distribution and density. Sample distribution and density invariance enables HDFE to consistently encode continuous objects regardless of their sampling, and therefore allows neural networks to receive continuous objects as inputs for machine learning tasks, such as classification and regression. Besides, HDFE does not require any training and is proved to map the object into an organized embedding space, which facilitates the training of the downstream tasks. In addition, the encoding is decodable, which enables neural networks to regress continuous objects by regressing their encodings. Therefore, HDFE serves as an interface for processing continuous objects. We apply HDFE to function-to-function mapping, where vanilla HDFE achieves competitive performance as the state-of-the-art algorithm. We apply HDFE to point cloud surface normal estimation, where a simple replacement from PointNet to HDFE leads to immediate 12% and 15% error reductions in two benchmarks. In addition, by integrating HDFE into the PointNet-based SOTA network, we improve the SOTA baseline by 2.5% and 1.7% in the same benchmarks.
    摘要 我们提议使用超dimensional函数编码(HDFE)。给定一个连续的函数(例如),HDFE可以生成这个函数的明确的 вектор表示,不受样本分布和概率的影响。这意味着HDFE可以一样有效地编码不同的样本,从而允许神经网络作为机器学习任务的输入。此外,HDFE不需要任何训练,并且证明可以将函数映射到有组织的嵌入空间中,从而便于下游任务的训练。此外,编码是可解码的,这使得神经网络可以通过解码来重构连续函数。因此,HDFE可以作为连续函数的接口。我们在函数到函数映射中应用HDFE,其中vanilla HDFE可以与当前状态的最佳算法竞争。我们在点云表面法向量估计中应用HDFE,将PointNet换为HDFE后,直接下降12%和15%的错误率在两个标准 benchmar k。此外,通过将HDFE集成到PointNet-based SOTA网络中,我们提高了SOTA标准 benchmar k的基eline by 2.5%和1.7%。

    Abstract Large-scale astronomical surveys can capture numerous images of celestial objects, including galaxies and nebulae. Analysing and processing these images can reveal intricate internal structures of these objects, allowing researchers to conduct comprehensive studies on their morphology, evolution, and physical properties. However, varying noise levels and point spread functions can hamper the accuracy and efficiency of information extraction from these images. To mitigate these effects, we propose a novel image restoration algorithm that connects a deep learning-based restoration algorithm with a high-fidelity telescope simulator. During the training stage, the simulator generates images with different levels of blur and noise to train the neural network based on the quality of restored images. After training, the neural network can directly restore images obtained by the telescope, as represented by the simulator. We have tested the algorithm using real and simulated observation data and have found that it effectively enhances fine structures in blurry images and increases the quality of observation images. This algorithm can be applied to large-scale sky survey data, such as data obtained by LSST, Euclid, and CSST, to further improve the accuracy and efficiency of information extraction, promoting advances in the field of astronomical research.
    摘要 大规模天文观测可以捕捉到许多天体对象的图像,包括星系和云气。分析和处理这些图像可以揭示天体对象的内部细节, allowing researchers to conduct comprehensive studies on their morphology, evolution, and physical properties. 然而,天文图像中的噪声和点扩散函数可能会妨碍信息提取的准确性和效率。为了解决这些问题,我们提出了一种新的图像修复算法,该算法将深度学习基于的修复算法与高精度天文望远镜模拟器相连接。在训练阶段,模拟器生成了不同水平的噪声和扩散函数来训练神经网络,根据修复图像的质量来评估神经网络的性能。一旦训练完成,神经网络可以直接修复天文望远镜所获得的图像,如由模拟器所表示。我们已经对实际和模拟观测数据进行了测试,发现该算法可以有效地增强杂化图像中的细节,并提高观测图像的质量。这种算法可以应用于大规模天文观测数据,如LSST、Euclid和CSST等,以进一步提高信息提取的准确性和效率,推动天文研究领域的进步。

    Abstract This paper focuses on building object-centric representations for long-term action anticipation in videos. Our key motivation is that objects provide important cues to recognize and predict human-object interactions, especially when the predictions are longer term, as an observed "background" object could be used by the human actor in the future. We observe that existing object-based video recognition frameworks either assume the existence of in-domain supervised object detectors or follow a fully weakly-supervised pipeline to infer object locations from action labels. We propose to build object-centric video representations by leveraging visual-language pretrained models. This is achieved by "object prompts", an approach to extract task-specific object-centric representations from general-purpose pretrained models without finetuning. To recognize and predict human-object interactions, we use a Transformer-based neural architecture which allows the "retrieval" of relevant objects for action anticipation at various time scales. We conduct extensive evaluations on the Ego4D, 50Salads, and EGTEA Gaze+ benchmarks. Both quantitative and qualitative results confirm the effectiveness of our proposed method.

  • For: This paper aims to improve the prediction of sea ice concentration (SIC) and sea ice drift (SID) in the Arctic Ocean using a novel multi-task fully convolutional network architecture called hierarchical information-sharing U-net (HIS-Unet).* Methods: The HIS-Unet model uses weighting attention modules (WAMs) to allow the SIC and SID layers to share information and assist each other’s prediction. The model is trained on a large dataset of satellite images and is compared to other statistical approaches, sea ice physical models, and neural networks without information-sharing units.* Results: The HIS-Unet model outperforms other methods in predicting both SIC and SID, particularly in areas with seasonal sea ice changes. The weight values of the WAMs suggest that SIC information is more important for SID prediction, and information sharing is more active in sea ice edges than in the central Arctic.
    Abstract Forecasting sea ice concentration (SIC) and sea ice drift (SID) in the Arctic Ocean is of great significance as the Arctic environment has been changed by the recent warming climate. Given that physical sea ice models require high computational costs with complex parameterization, deep learning techniques can effectively replace the physical model and improve the performance of sea ice prediction. This study proposes a novel multi-task fully conventional network architecture named hierarchical information-sharing U-net (HIS-Unet) to predict daily SIC and SID. Instead of learning SIC and SID separately at each branch, we allow the SIC and SID layers to share their information and assist each other's prediction through the weighting attention modules (WAMs). Consequently, our HIS-Unet outperforms other statistical approaches, sea ice physical models, and neural networks without such information-sharing units. The improvement of HIS-Unet is obvious both for SIC and SID prediction when and where sea ice conditions change seasonally, which implies that the information sharing through WAMs allows the model to learn the sudden changes of SIC and SID. The weight values of the WAMs imply that SIC information plays a more critical role in SID prediction, compared to that of SID information in SIC prediction, and information sharing is more active in sea ice edges (seasonal sea ice) than in the central Arctic (multi-year sea ice).
    摘要 预测北极海洋中的海冰浓度(SIC)和海冰流动(SID)具有极大的重要性,因为最近的气候变化已经对北极环境产生了深远的影响。 Physical sea ice模型需要高度的计算成本和复杂的参数化,深度学习技术可以有效地取代物理模型并提高海冰预测的性能。本研究提出了一种新的多任务全连接网络架构,即层次信息共享U-Net(HIS-Unet),用于每天预测SIC和SID。而不是在每个分支中独立地学习SIC和SID,我们允许SIC和SID层共享信息,通过重量注意模块(WAMs)来帮助对方的预测。因此,我们的HIS-Unet在SIC和SID预测中表现出色,超越了其他统计方法、物理海冰模型和无此信息共享单元的神经网络。HIS-Unet在SIC和SID预测中的改进明显,特别是在季节性变化的海冰Conditions下,这表明信息共享通过WAMs使得模型能够学习海冰的快速变化。WAMs的权值表明SIC信息在SID预测中扮演更重要的角色,相比之下,SID信息在SIC预测中的作用较弱,而信息共享更活跃在海冰 Edge(季节性海冰)than in the central Arctic(多年海冰)。

    Abstract There are not many large medical image datasets available. For these datasets, too small deep learning models can't learn useful features, so they don't work well due to underfitting, and too big models tend to overfit the limited data. As a result, there is a compromise between the two issues. This paper proposes a training strategy Medi-CAT to overcome the underfitting and overfitting phenomena in medical imaging datasets. Specifically, the proposed training methodology employs large pre-trained vision transformers to overcome underfitting and adversarial and contrastive learning techniques to prevent overfitting. The proposed method is trained and evaluated on four medical image classification datasets from the MedMNIST collection. Our experimental results indicate that the proposed approach improves the accuracy up to 2% on three benchmark datasets compared to well-known approaches, whereas it increases the performance up to 4.1% over the baseline methods.

    Abstract Multi-task approaches to joint depth and segmentation prediction are well-studied for monocular images. Yet, predictions from a single-view are inherently limited, while multiple views are available in many robotics applications. On the other end of the spectrum, video-based and full 3D methods require numerous frames to perform reconstruction and segmentation. With this work we propose a Multi-View Stereo (MVS) technique for depth prediction that benefits from rich semantic features of the Segment Anything Model (SAM). This enhanced depth prediction, in turn, serves as a prompt to our Transformer-based semantic segmentation decoder. We report the mutual benefit that both tasks enjoy in our quantitative and qualitative studies on the ScanNet dataset. Our approach consistently outperforms single-task MVS and segmentation models, along with multi-task monocular methods.

    Abstract Deep neural networks have exhibited remarkable performance in various domains. However, the reliance of these models on spurious features has raised concerns about their reliability. A promising solution to this problem is last-layer retraining, which involves retraining the linear classifier head on a small subset of data without spurious cues. Nevertheless, selecting this subset requires human supervision, which reduces its scalability. Moreover, spurious cues may still exist in the selected subset. As a solution to this problem, we propose a novel ranking framework that leverages an open vocabulary object detection technique to identify images without spurious cues. More specifically, we use the object detector as a measure to score the presence of the target object in the images. Next, the images are sorted based on this score, and the last-layer of the model is retrained on a subset of the data with the highest scores. Our experiments on the ImageNet-1k dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of this ranking framework in sorting images based on spuriousness and using them for last-layer retraining.

    Abstract Fourier PlenOctrees have shown to be an efficient representation for real-time rendering of dynamic Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF). Despite its many advantages, this method suffers from artifacts introduced by the involved compression when combining it with recent state-of-the-art techniques for training the static per-frame NeRF models. In this paper, we perform an in-depth analysis of these artifacts and leverage the resulting insights to propose an improved representation. In particular, we present a novel density encoding that adapts the Fourier-based compression to the characteristics of the transfer function used by the underlying volume rendering procedure and leads to a substantial reduction of artifacts in the dynamic model. Furthermore, we show an augmentation of the training data that relaxes the periodicity assumption of the compression. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our enhanced Fourier PlenOctrees in the scope of quantitative and qualitative evaluations on synthetic and real-world scenes.

    Abstract Person search (PS) is a challenging computer vision problem where the objective is to achieve joint optimization for pedestrian detection and re-identification (ReID). Although previous advancements have shown promising performance in the field under fully and weakly supervised learning fashion, there exists a major gap in investigating the domain adaptation ability of PS models. In this paper, we propose a diligent domain adaptive mixer (DDAM) for person search (DDAP-PS) framework that aims to bridge a gap to improve knowledge transfer from the labeled source domain to the unlabeled target domain. Specifically, we introduce a novel DDAM module that generates moderate mixed-domain representations by combining source and target domain representations. The proposed DDAM module encourages domain mixing to minimize the distance between the two extreme domains, thereby enhancing the ReID task. To achieve this, we introduce two bridge losses and a disparity loss. The objective of the two bridge losses is to guide the moderate mixed-domain representations to maintain an appropriate distance from both the source and target domain representations. The disparity loss aims to prevent the moderate mixed-domain representations from being biased towards either the source or target domains, thereby avoiding overfitting. Furthermore, we address the conflict between the two subtasks, localization and ReID, during domain adaptation. To handle this cross-task conflict, we forcefully decouple the norm-aware embedding, which aids in better learning of the moderate mixed-domain representation.

    Abstract Recently video generation has achieved substantial progress with realistic results. Nevertheless, existing AI-generated videos are usually very short clips ("shot-level") depicting a single scene. To deliver a coherent long video ("story-level"), it is desirable to have creative transition and prediction effects across different clips. This paper presents a short-to-long video diffusion model, SEINE, that focuses on generative transition and prediction. The goal is to generate high-quality long videos with smooth and creative transitions between scenes and varying lengths of shot-level videos. Specifically, we propose a random-mask video diffusion model to automatically generate transitions based on textual descriptions. By providing the images of different scenes as inputs, combined with text-based control, our model generates transition videos that ensure coherence and visual quality. Furthermore, the model can be readily extended to various tasks such as image-to-video animation and autoregressive video prediction. To conduct a comprehensive evaluation of this new generative task, we propose three assessing criteria for smooth and creative transition: temporal consistency, semantic similarity, and video-text semantic alignment. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of our approach over existing methods for generative transition and prediction, enabling the creation of story-level long videos.

    Abstract Neural radiance fields (NeRF) rely on volume rendering to synthesize novel views. Volume rendering requires evaluating an integral along each ray, which is numerically approximated with a finite sum that corresponds to the exact integral along the ray under piecewise constant volume density. As a consequence, the rendered result is unstable w.r.t. the choice of samples along the ray, a phenomenon that we dub quadrature instability. We propose a mathematically principled solution by reformulating the sample-based rendering equation so that it corresponds to the exact integral under piecewise linear volume density. This simultaneously resolves multiple issues: conflicts between samples along different rays, imprecise hierarchical sampling, and non-differentiability of quantiles of ray termination distances w.r.t. model parameters. We demonstrate several benefits over the classical sample-based rendering equation, such as sharper textures, better geometric reconstruction, and stronger depth supervision. Our proposed formulation can be also be used as a drop-in replacement to the volume rendering equation of existing NeRF-based methods. Our project page can be found at pl-nerf.github.io.

    Abstract Human-robot walking with prosthetic legs and exoskeletons, especially over complex terrains such as stairs, remains a significant challenge. Egocentric vision has the unique potential to detect the walking environment prior to physical interactions, which can improve transitions to and from stairs. This motivated us to create the StairNet initiative to support the development of new deep learning models for visual sensing and recognition of stairs, with an emphasis on lightweight and efficient neural networks for onboard real-time inference. In this study, we present an overview of the development of our large-scale dataset with over 515,000 manually labeled images, as well as our development of different deep learning models (e.g., 2D and 3D CNN, hybrid CNN and LSTM, and ViT networks) and training methods (e.g., supervised learning with temporal data and semi-supervised learning with unlabeled images) using our new dataset. We consistently achieved high classification accuracy (i.e., up to 98.8%) with different designs, offering trade-offs between model accuracy and size. When deployed on mobile devices with GPU and NPU accelerators, our deep learning models achieved inference speeds up to 2.8 ms. We also deployed our models on custom-designed CPU-powered smart glasses. However, limitations in the embedded hardware yielded slower inference speeds of 1.5 seconds, presenting a trade-off between human-centered design and performance. Overall, we showed that StairNet can be an effective platform to develop and study new visual perception systems for human-robot locomotion with applications in exoskeleton and prosthetic leg control.

    Abstract Conditional Imitation learning is a common and effective approach to train autonomous driving agents. However, two issues limit the full potential of this approach: (i) the inertia problem, a special case of causal confusion where the agent mistakenly correlates low speed with no acceleration, and (ii) low correlation between offline and online performance due to the accumulation of small errors that brings the agent in a previously unseen state. Both issues are critical for state-aware models, yet informing the driving agent of its internal state as well as the state of the environment is of crucial importance. In this paper we propose a multi-task learning agent based on a multi-stage vision transformer with state token propagation. We feed the state of the vehicle along with the representation of the environment as a special token of the transformer and propagate it throughout the network. This allows us to tackle the aforementioned issues from different angles: guiding the driving policy with learned stop/go information, performing data augmentation directly on the state of the vehicle and visually explaining the model's decisions. We report a drastic decrease in inertia and a high correlation between offline and online metrics.

    Abstract DNNs trained on natural clean samples have been shown to perform poorly on corrupted samples, such as noisy or blurry images. Various data augmentation methods have been recently proposed to improve DNN's robustness against common corruptions. Despite their success, they require computationally expensive training and cannot be applied to off-the-shelf trained models. Recently, it has been shown that updating BatchNorm (BN) statistics of an off-the-shelf model on a single corruption improves its accuracy on that corruption significantly. However, adopting the idea at inference time when the type of corruption is unknown and changing decreases the effectiveness of this method. In this paper, we harness the Fourier domain to detect the corruption type, a challenging task in the image domain. We propose a unified framework consisting of a corruption-detection model and BN statistics update that improves the corruption accuracy of any off-the-shelf trained model. We benchmark our framework on different models and datasets. Our results demonstrate about 8% and 4% accuracy improvement on CIFAR10-C and ImageNet-C, respectively. Furthermore, our framework can further improve the accuracy of state-of-the-art robust models, such as AugMix and DeepAug.

    Abstract The rapid advancement of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) necessitates the need to robustly evaluate these models. Among the established evaluation criteria, the Fr\'{e}chet Inception Distance (FID) has been widely adopted due to its conceptual simplicity, fast computation time, and strong correlation with human perception. However, FID has inherent limitations, mainly stemming from its assumption that feature embeddings follow a Gaussian distribution, and therefore can be defined by their first two moments. As this does not hold in practice, in this paper we explore the importance of third-moments in image feature data and use this information to define a new measure, which we call the Skew Inception Distance (SID). We prove that SID is a pseudometric on probability distributions, show how it extends FID, and present a practical method for its computation. Our numerical experiments support that SID either tracks with FID or, in some cases, aligns more closely with human perception when evaluating image features of ImageNet data.
    摘要 “生成冲突网络(GAN)的快速发展需要对这些模型进行坚实的评估。现有的评估标准之一是Fréchet Inception Distance(FID),它的概念简单,计算速度快,与人类感知有强相关性。然而,FID存在一些局限性,主要是它假设特征嵌入follows Gaussian distribution,因此可以通过其首两个矩阵来定义。然而,在实践中,这并不成立。因此,我们在这篇论文中研究了图像特征数据中第三个矩阵的重要性,并使用这些信息定义一个新的度量,我们称之为Skew Inception Distance(SID)。我们证明了SID是一个 pseudometric 在概率分布上,并证明了它与FID一起扩展。我们还提供了计算实用方法。我们的数据统计结果表明,SID在ImageNet数据上 either track with FID 或者,在一些情况下,与人类感知更加一致。”

    Abstract The ever-increasing use of synthetically generated content in different sectors of our everyday life, one for all media information, poses a strong need for deepfake detection tools in order to avoid the proliferation of altered messages. The process to identify manipulated content, in particular images and videos, is basically performed by looking for the presence of some inconsistencies and/or anomalies specifically due to the fake generation process. Different techniques exist in the scientific literature that exploit diverse ad-hoc features in order to highlight possible modifications. In this paper, we propose to investigate how deepfake creation can impact on the characteristics that the whole scene had at the time of the acquisition. In particular, when an image (video) is captured the overall geometry of the scene (e.g. surfaces) and the acquisition process (e.g. illumination) determine a univocal environment that is directly represented by the image pixel values; all these intrinsic relations are possibly changed by the deepfake generation process. By resorting to the analysis of the characteristics of the surfaces depicted in the image it is possible to obtain a descriptor usable to train a CNN for deepfake detection: we refer to such an approach as SurFake. Experimental results carried out on the FF++ dataset for different kinds of deepfake forgeries and diverse deep learning models confirm that such a feature can be adopted to discriminate between pristine and altered images; furthermore, experiments witness that it can also be combined with visual data to provide a certain improvement in terms of detection accuracy.
    摘要 随着人工生成内容在不同领域的日常生活中越来越广泛使用,特别是媒体信息领域,需要深刻检测深伪工具以避免扩散修改的消息。寻找修改后的内容特征是通过检查修改过程中的一些不一致和异常来完成的。现有的科学文献中有多种方法利用特定的特征来推断修改的可能性。在这篇论文中,我们提出了研究深伪创造对场景中的全部特征的影响。具体来说,当图像(视频)被捕捉时,场景中的整体几何(例如表面)以及捕捉过程(例如照明)会直接确定一个唯一的环境,这个环境由图像像素值直接表达出来。深伪生成过程可能会改变这些内在关系。通过分析图像中表现的表面特征,我们可以获得一个可以用于训练深度学习模型的描述符,我们称之为SurFake。实验结果表明,使用SurFake特征可以在FF++数据集上对不同类型的深伪假造和多种深度学习模型进行检测,并且可以与视觉数据结合使用以提高检测精度。

    Abstract Despite its wide use in medicine, ultrasound imaging faces several challenges related to its poor signal-to-noise ratio and several sources of noise and artefacts. Enhancing ultrasound image quality involves balancing concurrent factors like contrast, resolution, and speckle preservation. In recent years, there has been progress both in model-based and learning-based approaches to improve ultrasound image reconstruction. Bringing the best from both worlds, we propose a hybrid approach leveraging advances in diffusion models. To this end, we adapt Denoising Diffusion Restoration Models (DDRM) to incorporate ultrasound physics through a linear direct model and an unsupervised fine-tuning of the prior diffusion model. We conduct comprehensive experiments on simulated, in-vitro, and in-vivo data, demonstrating the efficacy of our approach in achieving high-quality image reconstructions from a single plane wave input and in comparison to state-of-the-art methods. Finally, given the stochastic nature of the method, we analyse in depth the statistical properties of single and multiple-sample reconstructions, experimentally show the informativeness of their variance, and provide an empirical model relating this behaviour to speckle noise. The code and data are available at: (upon acceptance).

    Abstract In the field of radiotherapy, accurate imaging and image registration are of utmost importance for precise treatment planning. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers detailed imaging without being invasive and excels in soft-tissue contrast, making it a preferred modality for radiotherapy planning. However, the high cost of MRI, longer acquisition time, and certain health considerations for patients pose challenges. Conversely, Computed Tomography (CT) scans offer a quicker and less expensive imaging solution. To bridge these modalities and address multimodal alignment challenges, we introduce an approach for enhanced monomodal registration using synthetic MRI images. Utilizing unpaired data, this paper proposes a novel method to produce these synthetic MRI images from CT scans, leveraging CycleGANs and feature extractors. By building upon the foundational work on Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Networks and incorporating advancements from related literature, our methodology shows promising results, outperforming several state-of-the-art methods. The efficacy of our approach is validated by multiple comparison metrics.

    Abstract In natural vision, feedback connections support versatile visual inference capabilities such as making sense of the occluded or noisy bottom-up sensory information or mediating pure top-down processes such as imagination. However, the mechanisms by which the feedback pathway learns to give rise to these capabilities flexibly are not clear. We propose that top-down effects emerge through alignment between feedforward and feedback pathways, each optimizing its own objectives. To achieve this co-optimization, we introduce Feedback-Feedforward Alignment (FFA), a learning algorithm that leverages feedback and feedforward pathways as mutual credit assignment computational graphs, enabling alignment. In our study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of FFA in co-optimizing classification and reconstruction tasks on widely used MNIST and CIFAR10 datasets. Notably, the alignment mechanism in FFA endows feedback connections with emergent visual inference functions, including denoising, resolving occlusions, hallucination, and imagination. Moreover, FFA offers bio-plausibility compared to traditional backpropagation (BP) methods in implementation. By repurposing the computational graph of credit assignment into a goal-driven feedback pathway, FFA alleviates weight transport problems encountered in BP, enhancing the bio-plausibility of the learning algorithm. Our study presents FFA as a promising proof-of-concept for the mechanisms underlying how feedback connections in the visual cortex support flexible visual functions. This work also contributes to the broader field of visual inference underlying perceptual phenomena and has implications for developing more biologically inspired learning algorithms.
    摘要 自然视觉中,反馈连接支持多样化的视觉推理能力,如对尘埃或噪声的底部感知信息的理解或通过纯净的顶部下向过程来实现想象。然而,这些反馈路径学习如何灵活地产生这些能力的机制不清楚。我们提出,反馈路径通过与前向路径的对齐来产生上述能力。为实现这种对齐,我们提出了反馈-前向对齐(FFA)学习算法,该算法利用反馈和前向路径作为互相评估计算图,以实现对齐。在我们的研究中,我们证明了 FFA 在广泛使用的 MNIST 和 CIFAR10 数据集上可以协同优化分类和重建任务。特别是,FFA 中的对齐机制使得反馈连接获得了 emergent 视觉推理功能,包括降噪、解除尘埃、幻觉和想象。此外,FFA 提供了对传统 backpropagation(BP)方法更加生物可能性的实现,通过将计算图转换为目标驱动反馈路径,FFA 可以解决传统 BP 中的权重传输问题,从而提高生物可能性。我们的研究展示了 FFA 作为视觉推理机制的可能性,并对涉及到视觉推理的更广泛领域产生影响。

    Abstract Forecasting motion and spatial positions of objects is of fundamental importance, especially in safety-critical settings such as autonomous driving. In this work, we address the issue by forecasting two different modalities that carry complementary information, namely optical flow and depth. To this end we propose FLODCAST a flow and depth forecasting model that leverages a multitask recurrent architecture, trained to jointly forecast both modalities at once. We stress the importance of training using flows and depth maps together, demonstrating that both tasks improve when the model is informed of the other modality. We train the proposed model to also perform predictions for several timesteps in the future. This provides better supervision and leads to more precise predictions, retaining the capability of the model to yield outputs autoregressively for any future time horizon. We test our model on the challenging Cityscapes dataset, obtaining state of the art results for both flow and depth forecasting. Thanks to the high quality of the generated flows, we also report benefits on the downstream task of segmentation forecasting, injecting our predictions in a flow-based mask-warping framework.

    Abstract Real-world data is extremely imbalanced and presents a long-tailed distribution, resulting in models that are biased towards classes with sufficient samples and perform poorly on rare classes. Recent methods propose to rebalance classes but they undertake the seesaw dilemma (what is increasing performance on tail classes may decrease that of head classes, and vice versa). In this paper, we argue that the seesaw dilemma is derived from gradient imbalance of different classes, in which gradients of inappropriate classes are set to important for updating, thus are prone to overcompensation or undercompensation on tail classes. To achieve ideal compensation, we formulate the long-tailed recognition as an multi-objective optimization problem, which fairly respects the contributions of head and tail classes simultaneously. For efficiency, we propose a Gradient-Balancing Grouping (GBG) strategy to gather the classes with similar gradient directions, thus approximately make every update under a Pareto descent direction. Our GBG method drives classes with similar gradient directions to form more representative gradient and provide ideal compensation to the tail classes. Moreover, We conduct extensive experiments on commonly used benchmarks in long-tailed learning and demonstrate the superiority of our method over existing SOTA methods.
    摘要 In this paper, we argue that the seesaw dilemma is caused by an imbalance in the gradients of the different classes. The gradients of the minority classes are often set to be more important for updating the model, which can lead to overcompensation or undercompensation of these classes. To address this problem, we formulate the long-tailed recognition as a multi-objective optimization problem, which aims to fairly respect the contributions of both the head and tail classes simultaneously.To efficiently solve this problem, we propose a Gradient-Balancing Grouping (GBG) strategy. This strategy gathers classes with similar gradient directions together, and approximately makes every update under a Pareto descent direction. This allows the classes with similar gradient directions to form more representative gradients, and provide ideal compensation to the tail classes.We conduct extensive experiments on commonly used benchmarks in long-tailed learning, and demonstrate the superiority of our method over existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods.

    Abstract Existing machine learning research has achieved promising results in monaural audio-visual separation (MAVS). However, most MAVS methods purely consider what the sound source is, not where it is located. This can be a problem in VR/AR scenarios, where listeners need to be able to distinguish between similar audio sources located in different directions. To address this limitation, we have generalized MAVS to spatial audio separation and proposed LAVSS: a location-guided audio-visual spatial audio separator. LAVSS is inspired by the correlation between spatial audio and visual location. We introduce the phase difference carried by binaural audio as spatial cues, and we utilize positional representations of sounding objects as additional modality guidance. We also leverage multi-level cross-modal attention to perform visual-positional collaboration with audio features. In addition, we adopt a pre-trained monaural separator to transfer knowledge from rich mono sounds to boost spatial audio separation. This exploits the correlation between monaural and binaural channels. Experiments on the FAIR-Play dataset demonstrate the superiority of the proposed LAVSS over existing benchmarks of audio-visual separation. Our project page: https://yyx666660.github.io/LAVSS/.

    Abstract In this paper, we present SignAvatars, the first large-scale multi-prompt 3D sign language (SL) motion dataset designed to bridge the communication gap for hearing-impaired individuals. While there has been an exponentially growing number of research regarding digital communication, the majority of existing communication technologies primarily cater to spoken or written languages, instead of SL, the essential communication method for hearing-impaired communities. Existing SL datasets, dictionaries, and sign language production (SLP) methods are typically limited to 2D as the annotating 3D models and avatars for SL is usually an entirely manual and labor-intensive process conducted by SL experts, often resulting in unnatural avatars. In response to these challenges, we compile and curate the SignAvatars dataset, which comprises 70,000 videos from 153 signers, totaling 8.34 million frames, covering both isolated signs and continuous, co-articulated signs, with multiple prompts including HamNoSys, spoken language, and words. To yield 3D holistic annotations, including meshes and biomechanically-valid poses of body, hands, and face, as well as 2D and 3D keypoints, we introduce an automated annotation pipeline operating on our large corpus of SL videos. SignAvatars facilitates various tasks such as 3D sign language recognition (SLR) and the novel 3D SL production (SLP) from diverse inputs like text scripts, individual words, and HamNoSys notation. Hence, to evaluate the potential of SignAvatars, we further propose a unified benchmark of 3D SL holistic motion production. We believe that this work is a significant step forward towards bringing the digital world to the hearing-impaired communities. Our project page is at https://signavatars.github.io/

    Abstract Deep learning in digital pathology brings intelligence and automation as substantial enhancements to pathological analysis, the gold standard of clinical diagnosis. However, multiple steps from tissue preparation to slide imaging introduce various image corruptions, making it difficult for deep neural network (DNN) models to achieve stable diagnostic results for clinical use. In order to assess and further enhance the robustness of the models, we analyze the physical causes of the full-stack corruptions throughout the pathological life-cycle and propose an Omni-Corruption Emulation (OmniCE) method to reproduce 21 types of corruptions quantified with 5-level severity. We then construct three OmniCE-corrupted benchmark datasets at both patch level and slide level and assess the robustness of popular DNNs in classification and segmentation tasks. Further, we explore to use the OmniCE-corrupted datasets as augmentation data for training and experiments to verify that the generalization ability of the models has been significantly enhanced.

    Abstract This paper proposes a thermal-infrared (TIR) remote target detection system for maritime rescue using deep learning and data augmentation. We established a self-collected TIR dataset consisting of multiple scenes imitating human rescue situations using a TIR camera (FLIR). Additionally, to address dataset scarcity and improve model robustness, a synthetic dataset from a 3D game (ARMA3) to augment the data is further collected. However, a significant domain gap exists between synthetic TIR and real TIR images. Hence, a proper domain adaptation algorithm is essential to overcome the gap. Therefore, we suggest a domain adaptation algorithm in a target-background separated manner from 3D game-to-real, based on a generative model, to address this issue. Furthermore, a segmentation network with fixed-weight kernels at the head is proposed to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and provide weak attention, as remote TIR targets inherently suffer from unclear boundaries. Experiment results reveal that the network trained on augmented data consisting of translated synthetic and real TIR data outperforms that trained on only real TIR data by a large margin. Furthermore, the proposed segmentation model surpasses the performance of state-of-the-art segmentation methods.

    Abstract Diffusion Tensor Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (DT-CMR) is the only in vivo method to non-invasively examine the microstructure of the human heart. Current research in DT-CMR aims to improve the understanding of how the cardiac microstructure relates to the macroscopic function of the healthy heart as well as how microstructural dysfunction contributes to disease. To get the final DT-CMR metrics, we need to acquire diffusion weighted images of at least 6 directions. However, due to DWI's low signal-to-noise ratio, the standard voxel size is quite big on the scale for microstructures. In this study, we explored the potential of deep-learning-based methods in improving the image quality volumetrically (x4 in all dimensions). This study proposed a novel framework to enable volumetric super-resolution, with an additional model input of high-resolution b0 DWI. We demonstrated that the additional input could offer higher super-resolved image quality. Going beyond, the model is also able to super-resolve DWIs of unseen b-values, proving the model framework's generalizability for cardiac DWI superresolution. In conclusion, we would then recommend giving the model a high-resolution reference image as an additional input to the low-resolution image for training and inference to guide all super-resolution frameworks for parametric imaging where a reference image is available.
    摘要 Diffusion Tensor Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (DT-CMR) 是人体心脏内部非侵入性地检查微结构的唯一方法。当前研究的目标是提高健康心脏微结构与macroscopic功能之间的关系认识,以及诊断疾病的微结构功能不良的贡献。为获得最终 DT-CMR 指标,我们需要获得至少6个方向的扩散束图像。然而,由于 DWI 的信号噪声比较低,标准 voxel 大小很大,不能够准确捕捉微结构。在这项研究中,我们探索了深度学习基于方法在提高图像质量方面的潜在作用。我们提出了一种新的框架,以便在所有维度上进行超分辨感图像。我们示出了在高分辨率 refer 图像作为额外输入时,模型可以提供更高的超分辨图像质量。此外,模型还可以超分辨不同的 b-值 DWI,证明了模型框架的普适性。因此,我们建议在训练和推理过程中给模型提供高分辨率 refer 图像作为额外输入,以便导引所有超分辨感图像框架。

    Abstract We present a highly compact run-time monitoring approach for deep computer vision networks that extracts selected knowledge from only a few (down to merely two) hidden layers, yet can efficiently detect silent data corruption originating from both hardware memory and input faults. Building on the insight that critical faults typically manifest as peak or bulk shifts in the activation distribution of the affected network layers, we use strategically placed quantile markers to make accurate estimates about the anomaly of the current inference as a whole. Importantly, the detector component itself is kept algorithmically transparent to render the categorization of regular and abnormal behavior interpretable to a human. Our technique achieves up to ~96% precision and ~98% recall of detection. Compared to state-of-the-art anomaly detection techniques, this approach requires minimal compute overhead (as little as 0.3% with respect to non-supervised inference time) and contributes to the explainability of the model.

    Abstract With the advent of large-scale pre-trained models, interest in adapting and exploiting them for continual learning scenarios has grown. In this paper, we propose an approach to exploiting pre-trained vision-language models (e.g. CLIP) that enables further adaptation instead of only using zero-shot learning of new tasks. We augment a pre-trained CLIP model with additional layers after the Image Encoder or before the Text Encoder. We investigate three different strategies: a Linear Adapter, a Self-attention Adapter, each operating on the image embedding, and Prompt Tuning which instead modifies prompts input to the CLIP text encoder. We also propose a method for parameter retention in the adapter layers that uses a measure of parameter importance to better maintain stability and plasticity during incremental learning. Our experiments demonstrate that the simplest solution -- a single Linear Adapter layer with parameter retention -- produces the best results. Experiments on several conventional benchmarks consistently show a significant margin of improvement over the current state-of-the-art.

    Abstract Capturing screen contents by smartphone cameras has become a common way for information sharing. However, these images and videos are often degraded by moir\'e patterns, which are caused by frequency aliasing between the camera filter array and digital display grids. We observe that the moir\'e patterns in raw domain is simpler than those in sRGB domain, and the moir\'e patterns in raw color channels have different properties. Therefore, we propose an image and video demoir\'eing network tailored for raw inputs. We introduce a color-separated feature branch, and it is fused with the traditional feature-mixed branch via channel and spatial modulations. Specifically, the channel modulation utilizes modulated color-separated features to enhance the color-mixed features. The spatial modulation utilizes the feature with large receptive field to modulate the feature with small receptive field. In addition, we build the first well-aligned raw video demoir\'eing (RawVDemoir\'e) dataset and propose an efficient temporal alignment method by inserting alternating patterns. Experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance for both image and video demori\'eing. We have released the code and dataset in https://github.com/tju-chengyijia/VD_raw.

    Abstract Widely-used LiDAR-based 3D object detectors often neglect fundamental geometric information readily available from the object proposals in their confidence estimation. This is mostly due to architectural design choices, which were often adopted from the 2D image domain, where geometric context is rarely available. In 3D, however, considering the object properties and its surroundings in a holistic way is important to distinguish between true and false positive detections, e.g. occluded pedestrians in a group. To address this, we present GACE, an intuitive and highly efficient method to improve the confidence estimation of a given black-box 3D object detector. We aggregate geometric cues of detections and their spatial relationships, which enables us to properly assess their plausibility and consequently, improve the confidence estimation. This leads to consistent performance gains over a variety of state-of-the-art detectors. Across all evaluated detectors, GACE proves to be especially beneficial for the vulnerable road user classes, i.e. pedestrians and cyclists.

    Abstract Styled Handwritten Text Generation (Styled HTG) is an important task in document analysis, aiming to generate text images with the handwriting of given reference images. In recent years, there has been significant progress in the development of deep learning models for tackling this task. Being able to measure the performance of HTG models via a meaningful and representative criterion is key for fostering the development of this research topic. However, despite the current adoption of scores for natural image generation evaluation, assessing the quality of generated handwriting remains challenging. In light of this, we devise the Handwriting Distance (HWD), tailored for HTG evaluation. In particular, it works in the feature space of a network specifically trained to extract handwriting style features from the variable-lenght input images and exploits a perceptual distance to compare the subtle geometric features of handwriting. Through extensive experimental evaluation on different word-level and line-level datasets of handwritten text images, we demonstrate the suitability of the proposed HWD as a score for Styled HTG. The pretrained model used as backbone will be released to ease the adoption of the score, aiming to provide a valuable tool for evaluating HTG models and thus contributing to advancing this important research area.

    Abstract When some application scenarios need to use semantic segmentation technology, like automatic driving, the primary concern comes to real-time performance rather than extremely high segmentation accuracy. To achieve a good trade-off between speed and accuracy, two-branch architecture has been proposed in recent years. It treats spatial information and semantics information separately which allows the model to be composed of two networks both not heavy. However, the process of fusing features with two different scales becomes a performance bottleneck for many nowaday two-branch models. In this research, we design a new fusion mechanism for two-branch architecture which is guided by attention computation. To be precise, we use the Dual-Guided Attention (DGA) module we proposed to replace some multi-scale transformations with the calculation of attention which means we only use several attention layers of near linear complexity to achieve performance comparable to frequently-used multi-layer fusion. To ensure that our module can be effective, we use Residual U-blocks (RSU) to build one of the two branches in our networks which aims to obtain better multi-scale features. Extensive experiments on Cityscapes and CamVid dataset show the effectiveness of our method.
    摘要 Translated into Simplified Chinese:当某些应用场景需要使用semantic segmentation技术时,如自动驾驶,则首要考虑实时性而不是极高的分割精度。为实现好的时间性和准确性之间的平衡,采用了两个分支架构在过去几年。它将空间信息和 semantics信息分开处理,这使得模型可以由两个不重的网络组成。然而,将不同缩度的特征进行融合成为现在许多两分支模型的性能瓶颈。在这项研究中,我们设计了一种新的融合机制,即指导计算导向的注意力模块(DGA)。我们使用该模块取代一些多尺度变换,通过计算注意力来实现与多层融合性能相同的性能。为确保我们的模块可行,我们使用了RSU块(Residual U-block)构建一个分支网络,以获得更好的多尺度特征。我们对Cityscapes和CamVid dataset进行了广泛的实验,并证明了我们的方法的有效性。

    Abstract Active learning, a label-efficient paradigm, empowers models to interactively query an oracle for labeling new data. In the realm of LiDAR semantic segmentation, the challenges stem from the sheer volume of point clouds, rendering annotation labor-intensive and cost-prohibitive. This paper presents Annotator, a general and efficient active learning baseline, in which a voxel-centric online selection strategy is tailored to efficiently probe and annotate the salient and exemplar voxel girds within each LiDAR scan, even under distribution shift. Concretely, we first execute an in-depth analysis of several common selection strategies such as Random, Entropy, Margin, and then develop voxel confusion degree (VCD) to exploit the local topology relations and structures of point clouds. Annotator excels in diverse settings, with a particular focus on active learning (AL), active source-free domain adaptation (ASFDA), and active domain adaptation (ADA). It consistently delivers exceptional performance across LiDAR semantic segmentation benchmarks, spanning both simulation-to-real and real-to-real scenarios. Surprisingly, Annotator exhibits remarkable efficiency, requiring significantly fewer annotations, e.g., just labeling five voxels per scan in the SynLiDAR-to-SemanticKITTI task. This results in impressive performance, achieving 87.8% fully-supervised performance under AL, 88.5% under ASFDA, and 94.4% under ADA. We envision that Annotator will offer a simple, general, and efficient solution for label-efficient 3D applications. Project page: https://binhuixie.github.io/annotator-web

    Abstract Skin lesion segmentation plays a crucial role in the computer-aided diagnosis of melanoma. Deep Learning models have shown promise in accurately segmenting skin lesions, but their widespread adoption in real-life clinical settings is hindered by their inherent black-box nature. In domains as critical as healthcare, interpretability is not merely a feature but a fundamental requirement for model adoption. This paper proposes IARS SegNet an advanced segmentation framework built upon the SegNet baseline model. Our approach incorporates three critical components: Skip connections, residual convolutions, and a global attention mechanism onto the baseline Segnet architecture. These elements play a pivotal role in accentuating the significance of clinically relevant regions, particularly the contours of skin lesions. The inclusion of skip connections enhances the model's capacity to learn intricate contour details, while the use of residual convolutions allows for the construction of a deeper model while preserving essential image features. The global attention mechanism further contributes by extracting refined feature maps from each convolutional and deconvolutional block, thereby elevating the model's interpretability. This enhancement highlights critical regions, fosters better understanding, and leads to more accurate skin lesion segmentation for melanoma diagnosis.

    Abstract We study a machine learning (ML) technique for refining images acquired during in situ observation using liquid-cell transmission electron microscopy (LC-TEM). Our model is constructed using a U-Net architecture and a ResNet encoder. For training our ML model, we prepared an original image dataset that contained pairs of images of samples acquired with and without a solution present. The former images were used as noisy images and the latter images were used as corresponding ground truth images. The number of pairs of image sets was $1,204$ and the image sets included images acquired at several different magnifications and electron doses. The trained model converted a noisy image into a clear image. The time necessary for the conversion was on the order of 10ms, and we applied the model to in situ observations using the software Gatan DigitalMicrograph (DM). Even if a nanoparticle was not visible in a view window in the DM software because of the low electron dose, it was visible in a successive refined image generated by our ML model.

    Abstract In medical image segmentation, domain generalization poses a significant challenge due to domain shifts caused by variations in data acquisition devices and other factors. These shifts are particularly pronounced in the most common scenario, which involves only single-source domain data due to privacy concerns. To address this, we draw inspiration from the self-supervised learning paradigm that effectively discourages overfitting to the source domain. We propose the Denoising Y-Net (DeY-Net), a novel approach incorporating an auxiliary denoising decoder into the basic U-Net architecture. The auxiliary decoder aims to perform denoising training, augmenting the domain-invariant representation that facilitates domain generalization. Furthermore, this paradigm provides the potential to utilize unlabeled data. Building upon denoising training, we propose Denoising Test Time Adaptation (DeTTA) that further: (i) adapts the model to the target domain in a sample-wise manner, and (ii) adapts to the noise-corrupted input. Extensive experiments conducted on widely-adopted liver segmentation benchmarks demonstrate significant domain generalization improvements over our baseline and state-of-the-art results compared to other methods. Code is available at https://github.com/WenRuxue/DeTTA.

    Abstract The application of ionizing radiation for diagnostic imaging is common around the globe. However, the process of imaging, itself, remains to be a relatively hazardous operation. Therefore, it is preferable to use as low a dose of ionizing radiation as possible, particularly in computed tomography (CT) imaging systems, where multiple x-ray operations are performed for the reconstruction of slices of body tissues. A popular method for radiation dose reduction in CT imaging is known as the quarter-dose technique, which reduces the x-ray dose but can cause a loss of image sharpness. Since CT image reconstruction from directional x-rays is a nonlinear process, it is analytically difficult to correct the effect of dose reduction on image quality. Recent and popular deep-learning approaches provide an intriguing possibility of image enhancement for low-dose artifacts. Some recent works propose combinations of multiple deep-learning and classical methods for this purpose, which over-complicate the process. However, it is observed here that the straight utilization of the well-known U-NET provides very successful results for the correction of low-dose artifacts. Blind tests with actual radiologists reveal that the U-NET enhanced quarter-dose CT images not only provide an immense visual improvement over the low-dose versions, but also become diagnostically preferable images, even when compared to their full-dose CT versions.
    摘要 全球各地的医疗机构都广泛应用离子化 radiation 进行诊断影像。然而,图像取得过程本身仍然是一个相对危险的操作。因此,使用最低化 ionizing radiation 剂量是非常重要的,特别是在计算机 tomography(CT)影像系统中,这里需要进行多个 x-ray 操作来重建体组织的slice。一种广泛使用的剂量减少技术是叫做 quarter-dose 技术,它可以减少 x-ray 剂量,但可能会导致图像的锐化度下降。由于 CT 图像重建是非线性的过程,因此分析上很难以修复剂量减少对图像质量的影响。现在的深度学习方法提供了一个有趣的可能性,即用于低剂量缺陷的图像提升。一些最近的工作提议了多种组合深度学习和经典方法的方法,但是这些方法会增加过程的复杂度。然而,在这里观察到的是,直接使用 Well-known U-NET 提供了非常成功的结果,用于低剂量缺陷的图像修复。盲测试中,U-NET 加工的 quarter-dose CT 图像不仅有极大的视觉改善,还比其全剂量 CT 版本更有优势,甚至在与其他诊断图像相比,也有较高的诊断价值。

    Abstract Creating believable motions for various characters has long been a goal in computer graphics. Current learning-based motion synthesis methods depend on extensive motion datasets, which are often challenging, if not impossible, to obtain. On the other hand, pose data is more accessible, since static posed characters are easier to create and can even be extracted from images using recent advancements in computer vision. In this paper, we utilize this alternative data source and introduce a neural motion synthesis approach through retargeting. Our method generates plausible motions for characters that have only pose data by transferring motion from an existing motion capture dataset of another character, which can have drastically different skeletons. Our experiments show that our method effectively combines the motion features of the source character with the pose features of the target character, and performs robustly with small or noisy pose data sets, ranging from a few artist-created poses to noisy poses estimated directly from images. Additionally, a conducted user study indicated that a majority of participants found our retargeted motion to be more enjoyable to watch, more lifelike in appearance, and exhibiting fewer artifacts.

    Abstract Background and objective: CTA is a gold standard of preoperative diagnosis of abdominal aorta and typically used for geometric-only characteristic extraction. We assume that a model describing the dynamic behavior of the contrast agent in the vessel can be developed from the data of routine CTA studies, allowing the procedure to be investigated and optimized without the need for additional perfusion CT studies. Obtained spatial distribution of CA can be valuable for both increasing the diagnostic value of a particular study and improving the CT data processing tools. Methods: In accordance with the Beer-Lambert law and the absence of chemical interaction between blood and CA, we postulated the existence of a deterministic CA-induced component in the CT signal density. The proposed model, having a double-sigmoid structure, contains six coefficients relevant to the properties of hemodynamics. To validate the model, expert segmentation was performed using the 3D Slicer application for the CTA data obtained from publicly available source. The model was fitted to the data using the non-linear least square method with Levenberg-Marquardt optimization. Results: We analyzed 594 CTA images (4 studies with median size of 144 slices, IQR [134; 158.5]; 1:1 normal:pathology balance). Goodness-of-fit was proved by Wilcox test (p-value > 0.05 for all cases). The proposed model correctly simulated normal blood flow and hemodynamics disturbances caused by local abnormalities (aneurysm, thrombus and arterial branching). Conclusions: Proposed approach can be useful for personalized CA modeling of vessels, improvement of CTA image processing and preparation of synthetic CT training data for artificial intelligence.

    Abstract 3D object detection in point clouds is important for autonomous driving systems. A primary challenge in 3D object detection stems from the sparse distribution of points within the 3D scene. Existing high-performance methods typically employ 3D sparse convolutional neural networks with small kernels to extract features. To reduce computational costs, these methods resort to submanifold sparse convolutions, which prevent the information exchange among spatially disconnected features. Some recent approaches have attempted to address this problem by introducing large-kernel convolutions or self-attention mechanisms, but they either achieve limited accuracy improvements or incur excessive computational costs. We propose HEDNet, a hierarchical encoder-decoder network for 3D object detection, which leverages encoder-decoder blocks to capture long-range dependencies among features in the spatial space, particularly for large and distant objects. We conducted extensive experiments on the Waymo Open and nuScenes datasets. HEDNet achieved superior detection accuracy on both datasets than previous state-of-the-art methods with competitive efficiency. The code is available at https://github.com/zhanggang001/HEDNet.

    Abstract Underwater images often exhibit poor quality, imbalanced coloration, and low contrast due to the complex and intricate interaction of light, water, and objects. Despite the significant contributions of previous underwater enhancement techniques, there exist several problems that demand further improvement: (i) Current deep learning methodologies depend on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) that lack multi-scale enhancement and also have limited global perception fields. (ii) The scarcity of paired real-world underwater datasets poses a considerable challenge, and the utilization of synthetic image pairs risks overfitting. To address the aforementioned issues, this paper presents a Multi-scale Transformer-based Network called UWFormer for enhancing images at multiple frequencies via semi-supervised learning, in which we propose a Nonlinear Frequency-aware Attention mechanism and a Multi-Scale Fusion Feed-forward Network for low-frequency enhancement. Additionally, we introduce a specialized underwater semi-supervised training strategy, proposing a Subaqueous Perceptual Loss function to generate reliable pseudo labels. Experiments using full-reference and non-reference underwater benchmarks demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of both quantity and visual quality.

    Abstract Recent camouflaged object detection (COD) attempts to segment objects visually blended into their surroundings, which is extremely complex and difficult in real-world scenarios. Apart from the high intrinsic similarity between camouflaged objects and their background, objects are usually diverse in scale, fuzzy in appearance, and even severely occluded. To this end, we propose an effective unified collaborative pyramid network which mimics human behavior when observing vague images and videos, \textit{i.e.}, zooming in and out. Specifically, our approach employs the zooming strategy to learn discriminative mixed-scale semantics by the multi-head scale integration and rich granularity perception units, which are designed to fully explore imperceptible clues between candidate objects and background surroundings. The former's intrinsic multi-head aggregation provides more diverse visual patterns. The latter's routing mechanism can effectively propagate inter-frame difference in spatiotemporal scenarios and adaptively ignore static representations. They provides a solid foundation for realizing a unified architecture for static and dynamic COD. Moreover, considering the uncertainty and ambiguity derived from indistinguishable textures, we construct a simple yet effective regularization, uncertainty awareness loss, to encourage predictions with higher confidence in candidate regions.

    摘要 现代隐形物检测(COD)尝试分割视觉混合到背景中的物体,这是现实世界中非常复杂和困难的任务。除了高度内在相似性外,物体通常是多样化的Scale、模糊的外观和甚至严重干扰。为此,我们提出了一种有效的统一协作pyramid网络,模仿人类观察模糊图像和视频时的行为,即“缩进和缩出”。具体来说,我们的方法使用缩进策略来学习混合尺度 semantics,通过多头聚合和丰富的粒度感知单元来完全探索不可见的准确信息。前者的内在多头聚合提供更多的视觉模式。后者的路由机制可以有效地传递间帧差异和静止表示。它们提供了一个固定的基础 для实现静止和动态COD的统一架构。此外,考虑到来自不可分辨的文本的不确定性和抽象,我们构建了一个简单 yet有效的正则化,uncertainty awareness loss,以促进更高的信任度在候选区域中的预测。我们的高度任务友好的框架在图像和视频COD标准测试上一直表现出优秀的性能,代码将于 \url{https://github.com/lartpang/ZoomNeXt} 公布。

    Abstract Several visual tasks, such as pedestrian detection and image-to-image translation, are challenging to accomplish in low light using RGB images. Heat variation of objects in thermal images can be used to overcome this. In this work, an end-to-end framework, which consists of a generative network and a detector network, is proposed to translate RGB image into Thermal ones and compare generated thermal images with real data. We have collected images from two different locations using the Parrot Anafi Thermal drone. After that, we created a two-stream network, preprocessed, augmented, the image data, and trained the generator and discriminator models from scratch. The findings demonstrate that it is feasible to translate RGB training data to thermal data using GAN. As a result, thermal data can now be produced more quickly and affordably, which is useful for security and surveillance applications.

    Abstract Deep neural networks are susceptible to adversarial attacks, which pose a significant threat to their security and reliability in real-world applications. The most notable adversarial attacks are transfer-based attacks, where an adversary crafts an adversarial example to fool one model, which can also fool other models. While previous research has made progress in improving the transferability of untargeted adversarial examples, the generation of targeted adversarial examples that can transfer between models remains a challenging task. In this work, we present a novel approach to generate transferable targeted adversarial examples by exploiting the vulnerability of deep neural networks to perturbations on high-frequency components of images. We observe that replacing the high-frequency component of an image with that of another image can mislead deep models, motivating us to craft perturbations containing high-frequency information to achieve targeted attacks. To this end, we propose a method called Low-Frequency Adversarial Attack (\name), which trains a conditional generator to generate targeted adversarial perturbations that are then added to the low-frequency component of the image. Extensive experiments on ImageNet demonstrate that our proposed approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods, improving targeted attack success rates by a margin from 3.2\% to 15.5\%.

    Abstract Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) is a serious skin wound requiring specialized care. However, real DFU datasets are limited, hindering clinical training and research activities. In recent years, generative adversarial networks and diffusion models have emerged as powerful tools for generating synthetic images with remarkable realism and diversity in many applications. This paper explores the potential of diffusion models for synthesizing DFU images and evaluates their authenticity through expert clinician assessments. Additionally, evaluation metrics such as Frechet Inception Distance (FID) and Kernel Inception Distance (KID) are examined to assess the quality of the synthetic DFU images. A dataset of 2,000 DFU images is used for training the diffusion model, and the synthetic images are generated by applying diffusion processes. The results indicate that the diffusion model successfully synthesizes visually indistinguishable DFU images. 70% of the time, clinicians marked synthetic DFU images as real DFUs. However, clinicians demonstrate higher unanimous confidence in rating real images than synthetic ones. The study also reveals that FID and KID metrics do not significantly align with clinicians' assessments, suggesting alternative evaluation approaches are needed. The findings highlight the potential of diffusion models for generating synthetic DFU images and their impact on medical training programs and research in wound detection and classification.

    Abstract In this report, we present our approach to the EPIC-KITCHENS VISOR Hand Object Segmentation Challenge, which focuses on the estimation of the relation between the hands and the objects given a single frame as input. The EPIC-KITCHENS VISOR dataset provides pixel-wise annotations and serves as a benchmark for hand and active object segmentation in egocentric video. Our approach combines the baseline method, i.e., Point-based Rendering (PointRend) and the Segment Anything Model (SAM), aiming to enhance the accuracy of hand and object segmentation outcomes, while also minimizing instances of missed detection. We leverage accurate hand segmentation maps obtained from the baseline method to extract more precise hand and in-contact object segments. We utilize the class-agnostic segmentation provided by SAM and apply specific hand-crafted constraints to enhance the results. In cases where the baseline model misses the detection of hands or objects, we re-train an object detector on the training set to enhance the detection accuracy. The detected hand and in-contact object bounding boxes are then used as prompts to extract their respective segments from the output of SAM. By effectively combining the strengths of existing methods and applying our refinements, our submission achieved the 1st place in terms of evaluation criteria in the VISOR HOS Challenge.

    Abstract In this study, we present a large-scale earth surface reconstruction pipeline for linear-array charge-coupled device (CCD) satellite imagery. While mainstream satellite image-based reconstruction approaches perform exceptionally well, the rational functional model (RFM) is subject to several limitations. For example, the RFM has no rigorous physical interpretation and differs significantly from the pinhole imaging model; hence, it cannot be directly applied to learning-based 3D reconstruction networks and to more novel reconstruction pipelines in computer vision. Hence, in this study, we introduce a method in which the RFM is equivalent to the pinhole camera model (PCM), meaning that the internal and external parameters of the pinhole camera are used instead of the rational polynomial coefficient parameters. We then derive an error formula for this equivalent pinhole model for the first time, demonstrating the influence of the image size on the accuracy of the reconstruction. In addition, we propose a polynomial image refinement model that minimizes equivalent errors via the least squares method. The experiments were conducted using four image datasets: WHU-TLC, DFC2019, ISPRS-ZY3, and GF7. The results demonstrated that the reconstruction accuracy was proportional to the image size. Our polynomial image refinement model significantly enhanced the accuracy and completeness of the reconstruction, and achieved more significant improvements for larger-scale images.

    Abstract Denoising algorithms play a crucial role in medical image processing and analysis. However, classical denoising algorithms often ignore explanatory and critical medical features preservation, which may lead to misdiagnosis and legal liabilities.In this work, we propose a new denoising method for medical images that not only efficiently removes various types of noise, but also preserves key medical features throughout the process. To achieve this goal, we utilize a gradient-based eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) approach to design a feature preserving loss function. Our feature preserving loss function is motivated by the characteristic that gradient-based XAI is sensitive to noise. Through backpropagation, medical image features before and after denoising can be kept consistent. We conducted extensive experiments on three available medical image datasets, including synthesized 13 different types of noise and artifacts. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our method in terms of denoising performance, model explainability, and generalization.

    Abstract The aim of this paper is the reconstruction of a smooth surface from an unorganized point cloud sampled by a closed surface, with the preservation of geometric shapes, without any further information other than the point cloud. Implicit neural representations (INRs) have recently emerged as a promising approach to surface reconstruction. However, the reconstruction quality of existing methods relies on ground truth implicit function values or surface normal vectors. In this paper, we show that proper supervision of partial differential equations and fundamental properties of differential vector fields are sufficient to robustly reconstruct high-quality surfaces. We cast the $p$-Poisson equation to learn a signed distance function (SDF) and the reconstructed surface is implicitly represented by the zero-level set of the SDF. For efficient training, we develop a variable splitting structure by introducing a gradient of the SDF as an auxiliary variable and impose the $p$-Poisson equation directly on the auxiliary variable as a hard constraint. Based on the curl-free property of the gradient field, we impose a curl-free constraint on the auxiliary variable, which leads to a more faithful reconstruction. Experiments on standard benchmark datasets show that the proposed INR provides a superior and robust reconstruction. The code is available at \url{https://github.com/Yebbi/PINC}.

    Abstract Diffusion models are a family of generative models that yield record-breaking performance in tasks such as image synthesis, video generation, and molecule design.
