Research on automated image enhancement has gained momentum in recent years, partially due to the need for easy-to-use tools for enhancing pictures captured by ubiquitous cameras on mobile devices. Many of the existing leading methods…
The condition of a building is an important factor for real estate valuation. Currently, the estimation of condition is determined by real estate appraisers which makes it subjective to a certain degree. We propose a novel vision-based…
In recent years, data posted about real estate on the Internet is currently increasing. In this study, in order to analyze user needs for real estate, we focus on "Mansion Community" which is a Japanese bulletin board system (hereinafter…
The performance of visual quality prediction models is commonly assumed to be closely tied to their ability to capture perceptually relevant image aspects. Models are thus either based on sophisticated feature extractors carefully designed…
We propose a new framework to rank image attractiveness using a novel pairwise deep network trained with a large set of side-by-side multi-labeled image pairs from a web image index. The judges only provide relative ranking between two…
As a training and analysis strategy for convolutional neural networks (CNNs), we slice images into tiled segments and use, for training and prediction, segments that both satisfy a criterion of information diversity and contain sufficient…
We consider detecting objects in an image by iteratively selecting from a set of arbitrarily shaped candidate regions. Our generic approach, which we term visual chunking, reasons about the locations of multiple object instances in an image…
This paper presents a model that uses the information that sellers publish in real estate market websites to predict whether a property has higher or lower price than the average price of its similar properties. The model learns the…
In many applications of computer vision it is important to accurately estimate the trajectory of an object over time by fusing data from a number of sources, of which 2D and 3D imagery is only one. In this paper, we show how to use a deep…
Robot localization is a fundamental component of autonomous navigation in unknown environments. Among various sensing modalities, visual input from cameras plays a central role, enabling robots to estimate their position by tracking point…
The concept of beauty has been debated by philosophers and psychologists for centuries, but most definitions are subjective and metaphysical, and deficit in accuracy, generality, and scalability. In this paper, we present a novel study on…
We present Intrinsic Image Diffusion, a generative model for appearance decomposition of indoor scenes. Given a single input view, we sample multiple possible material explanations represented as albedo, roughness, and metallic maps.…
This study introduces a novel unsupervised medical image feature extraction method that employs spatial stratification techniques. An objective function based on weight is proposed to achieve the purpose of fast image recognition. The…
Over the past two decades, researchers in the field of visual aesthetics have studied numerous quantitative (objective) image properties and how they relate to visual aesthetic appreciation. However, results are difficult to compare between…
One of the most prominent attributes of Neural Networks (NNs) constitutes their capability of learning to extract robust and descriptive features from high dimensional data, like images. Hence, such an ability renders their exploitation as…
Successfully predicting gentrification could have many social and commercial applications; however, real estate sales are difficult to predict because they belong to a chaotic system comprised of intrinsic and extrinsic characteristics,…
Researchers try to model the aesthetic quality of photographs into low and high- level features, drawing inspiration from art theory, psychology and marketing. We attempt to describe every feature extraction measure employed in the above…
This study examines various feature extraction techniques in computer vision, the primary focus of which is on Vision Transformers (ViTs) and other approaches such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), deep feature models, traditional…
The statistical analysis of data stemming from dynamical systems, including, but not limited to, time series, routinely relies on the estimation of information theoretical quantities, most notably Shannon entropy. To this purpose, possibly…
Online retail is a visual experience- Shoppers often use images as first order information to decide if an item matches their personal style. Image characteristics such as color, simplicity, scene composition, texture, style, aesthetics and…
