Zero-shot forecasting aims to predict outcomes for previously unseen conditions without direct historical data, posing a significant challenge for traditional forecasting methods. We introduce a Resolution-Aware Retrieval-Augmented…
Sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) associates hand-drawn sketches with their corresponding realistic images. In this study, we aim to tackle two major challenges of this task simultaneously: i) zero-shot, dealing with unseen categories,…
We present a 3D scene completion method that recovers the complete geometry of multiple unseen objects in complex scenes from a single RGB-D image. Despite notable advancements in single-object 3D shape completion, high-quality…
Remote sensing composed image retrieval (RSCIR) enables search in large satellite image archives using composed queries that combine a reference image with a textual modifier. Although RSCIR offers a flexible interface for expressing…
With the widespread use of touch-screen devices, it is more and more convenient for people to draw sketches on screen. This results in the demand for automatically understanding the sketches. Thus, the sketch recognition task becomes more…
Zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval typically asks for a trained model to be applied as is to unseen categories. In this paper, we question to argue that this setup by definition is not compatible with the inherent abstract and…
We introduce the novel problem of localizing all the instances of an object (seen or unseen during training) in a natural image via sketch query. We refer to this problem as sketch-guided object localization. This problem is distinctively…
We scrutinise an important observation plaguing scene-level sketch research -- that a significant portion of scene sketches are "partial". A quick pilot study reveals: (i) a scene sketch does not necessarily contain all objects in the…
Zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR) is challenging due to the cross-domain nature of sketches and photos, as well as the semantic gap between seen and unseen image distributions. Previous methods fine-tune pre-trained models…
Object detection in optical remote sensing images, being a fundamental but challenging problem in the field of aerial and satellite image analysis, plays an important role for a wide range of applications and is receiving significant…
