3D Clothing modeling and datasets play crucial role in the entertainment, animation, and digital fashion industries. Existing work often lacks detailed semantic understanding or uses synthetic datasets, lacking realism and personalization.…

State-of-the-art semantic or instance segmentation deep neural networks (DNNs) are usually trained on a closed set of semantic classes. As such, they are ill-equipped to handle previously-unseen objects. However, detecting and localizing…

Industrial bin picking is a challenging task that requires accurate and robust segmentation of individual object instances. Particularly, industrial objects can have irregular shapes, that is, thin and concave, whereas in bin-picking…

Multi-label classification models have a wide range of applications in E-commerce, including visual-based label predictions and language-based sentiment classifications. A major challenge in achieving satisfactory performance for these…

Attribute recognition has become crucial because of its wide applications in many computer vision tasks, such as person re-identification. Like many object recognition problems, variations in viewpoints, illumination, and recognition at far…

We explore object detection with two attributes: color and material. The task aims to simultaneously detect objects and infer their color and material. A straight-forward approach is to add attribute heads at the very end of a usual object…

Most instance segmentation models are not end-to-end trainable due to either the incorporation of proposal estimation (RPN) as a pre-processing or non-maximum suppression (NMS) as a post-processing. Here we propose a novel end-to-end…

Place is an important element in visual understanding. Given a photo of a building, people can often tell its functionality, e.g. a restaurant or a shop, its cultural style, e.g. Asian or European, as well as its economic type, e.g.…

Localizing functional regions of objects or affordances is an important aspect of scene understanding. In this work, we cast the problem of affordance segmentation as that of semantic image segmentation. In order to explore various levels…

This paper addresses the semantic instance segmentation task in the open-set conditions, where input images can contain known and unknown object classes. The training process of existing semantic instance segmentation methods requires…
