We present a novel Bipartite Graph Reasoning GAN (BiGraphGAN) for the challenging person image generation task. The proposed graph generator mainly consists of two novel blocks that aim to model the pose-to-pose and pose-to-image relations,…
Human interaction recognition is a challenging problem in computer vision and has been researched over the years due to its important applications. With the development of deep models for the human pose estimation problem, this work aims to…
Image-Text Matching is one major task in cross-modal information processing. The main challenge is to learn the unified visual and textual representations. Previous methods that perform well on this task primarily focus on not only the…
Interaction group detection has been previously addressed with bottom-up approaches which relied on the position and orientation information of individuals. These approaches were primarily based on pairwise affinity matrices and were…
Causal discovery is at the core of human cognition. It enables us to reason about the environment and make counterfactual predictions about unseen scenarios that can vastly differ from our previous experiences. We consider the task of…
Multimodal large language models often struggle with faithful reasoning in complex visual scenes, where intricate entities and relations require precise visual grounding at each step. This reasoning unfaithfulness frequently manifests as…
Human action analysis and understanding in videos is an important and challenging task. Although substantial progress has been made in past years, the explainability of existing methods is still limited. In this work, we propose a novel…
Recent approaches on visual scene understanding attempt to build a scene graph -- a computational representation of objects and their pairwise relationships. Such rich semantic representation is very appealing, yet difficult to obtain from…
Scene graph generation is a sophisticated task because there is no specific recognition pattern (e.g., "looking at" and "near" have no conspicuous difference concerning vision, whereas "near" could occur between entities with different…
Visual dialog, which aims to hold a meaningful conversation with humans about a given image, is a challenging task that requires models to reason the complex dependencies among visual content, dialog history, and current questions. Graph…
3D skeleton-based action recognition and motion prediction are two essential problems of human activity understanding. In many previous works: 1) they studied two tasks separately, neglecting internal correlations; 2) they did not capture…
Human observers engage in selective information uptake when classifying visual patterns. The same is true of deep neural networks, which currently constitute the best performing artificial vision systems. Our goal is to examine the…
The increasing popularity and diversity of social media sites has encouraged more and more people to participate in multiple online social networks to enjoy their services. Each user may create a user identity to represent his or her unique…
Recognizing the identities of people in everyday photos is still a very challenging problem for machine vision, due to non-frontal faces, changes in clothing, location, lighting and similar. Recent studies have shown that rich relational…
Action Detection is a complex task that aims to detect and classify human actions in video clips. Typically, it has been addressed by processing fine-grained features extracted from a video classification backbone. Recently, thanks to the…
Reasoning, the ability to logically draw conclusions from existing knowledge, is a hallmark of human. Together with perception, they constitute the two major themes of artificial intelligence. While deep learning has pushed the limit of…
The significant progress on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) has facilitated realistic single-object image generation based on language input. However, complex-scene generation (with various interactions among multiple objects) still…
Person re-identification has achieved great progress with deep convolutional neural networks. However, most previous methods focus on learning individual appearance feature embedding, and it is hard for the models to handle difficult…
Recent works on SLAM extend their pose graphs with higher-level semantic concepts like Rooms exploiting relationships between them, to provide, not only a richer representation of the situation/environment but also to improve the accuracy…
Understanding a visual scene goes beyond recognizing individual objects in isolation. Relationships between objects also constitute rich semantic information about the scene. In this work, we explicitly model the objects and their…
