During the investigation of criminal activity when evidence is available, the issue at hand is determining the credibility of the video and ascertaining that the video is real. Today, one way to authenticate the footage is to identify the…
There exist a wide range of single number metrics for assessing performance of classification algorithms, including AUC and the F1-score (Wikipedia lists 17 such metrics, with 27 different names). In this article, I propose a new metric to…
Image matting is a fundamental computer vision problem and has many applications. Previous algorithms have poor performance when an image has similar foreground and background colors or complicated textures. The main reasons are prior…
Fine localization in autonomous driving platforms is a task of broad interest, receiving much attention in recent years. Some localization algorithms use the Euclidean distance as a similarity measure between the local image acquired by a…
We explore the task of recognizing peoples' identities in photo albums in an unconstrained setting. To facilitate this, we introduce the new People In Photo Albums (PIPA) dataset, consisting of over 60000 instances of 2000 individuals…
Enhancing the energy efficiency of buildings significantly relies on monitoring indoor ambient temperature. The potential limitations of conventional temperature measurement techniques, together with the omnipresence of smartphones, have…
This paper proposes a novel approach for crowd counting in low to high density scenarios in static images. Current approaches cannot handle huge crowd diversity well and thus perform poorly in extreme cases, where the crowd density in…
Topics generated by topic models are usually represented by lists of $t$ terms or alternatively using short phrases and images. The current state-of-the-art work on labeling topics using images selects images by re-ranking a small set of…
Hundreds of millions of people routinely take photos using their smartphones as point and shoot (PAS) cameras, yet very few would have the photography skills to compose a good shot of a scene. While traditional PAS cameras have built-in…
Image matting is an ill-posed problem that usually requires additional user input, such as trimaps or scribbles. Drawing a fne trimap requires a large amount of user effort, while using scribbles can hardly obtain satisfactory alpha mattes…
AI-powered automatic camera scene detection mode is nowadays available in nearly any modern smartphone, though the problem of accurate scene prediction has not yet been addressed by the research community. This paper for the first time…
Deep learning-based fingerprinting is one of the current promising technologies for outdoor localization in cellular networks. However, deploying such localization systems for heterogeneous phones affects their accuracy as the cellular…
When human annotators are given a choice about what to label in an image, they apply their own subjective judgments on what to ignore and what to mention. We refer to these noisy "human-centric" annotations as exhibiting human reporting…
WiFi fingerprinting is one of the mainstream technologies for indoor localization. However, it requires an initial calibration phase during which the fingerprint database is built manually. This process is labour intensive and needs to be…
We propose a new approach to interactive full-image semantic segmentation which enables quickly collecting training data for new datasets with previously unseen semantic classes (A demo is available at https://youtu.be/yUk8D5gEX-o). We…
The ubiquitous presence of WiFi access points and mobile devices capable of measuring WiFi signal strengths allow for real-world applications in indoor localization and mapping. In particular, no additional infrastructure is required.…
Besides per-pixel accuracy, topological correctness is also crucial for the segmentation of images with fine-scale structures, e.g., satellite images and biomedical images. In this paper, by leveraging the theory of digital topology, we…
Spectrograms are 2D representations of sound that look very different from the images found in our visual world. And natural images, when played as spectrograms, make unnatural sounds. In this paper, we show that it is possible to…
Accurate camera pose estimation is a fundamental requirement for numerous applications, such as autonomous driving, mobile robotics, and augmented reality. In this work, we address the problem of estimating the global 6 DoF camera pose from…
In today's age of internet and social media, one can find an enormous volume of forged images on-line. These images have been used in the past to convey falsified information and achieve harmful intentions. The spread and the effect of the…
