Understanding a visual scene incorporates objects, relationships, and context. Traditional methods working on an image mostly focus on object detection and fail to capture the relationship between the objects. Relationships can give rich…
Object detection, scene graph generation and region captioning, which are three scene understanding tasks at different semantic levels, are tied together: scene graphs are generated on top of objects detected in an image with their pairwise…
Scene recognition is currently one of the top-challenging research fields in computer vision. This may be due to the ambiguity between classes: images of several scene classes may share similar objects, which causes confusion among them.…
