Column generation (CG) is one of the most successful approaches for solving large-scale linear programming (LP) problems. Given an LP with a prohibitively large number of variables (i.e., columns), the idea of CG is to explicitly consider…
Instance segmentation is one of the actively studied research topics in computer vision in which many objects of interest should be separated individually. While many feed-forward networks produce high-quality segmentation on different…
In recent years, one of the most popular techniques in the computer vision community has been the deep learning technique. As a data-driven technique, deep model requires enormous amounts of accurately labelled training data, which is often…
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…
The aesthetic quality of an image is defined as the measure or appreciation of the beauty of an image. Aesthetics is inherently a subjective property but there are certain factors that influence it such as, the semantic content of the…
In this paper, we make the first attempt to align diffusion models for image inpainting with human aesthetic standards via a reinforcement learning framework, significantly improving the quality and visual appeal of inpainted images.…
We present an approach to enhancing the realism of synthetic images. The images are enhanced by a convolutional network that leverages intermediate representations produced by conventional rendering pipelines. The network is trained via a…
Liquify is a common technique for image editing, which can be used for image distortion. Due to the uncertainty in the distortion variation, restoring distorted images caused by liquify filter is a challenging task. To edit images in an…
Detecting manipulated images has become a significant emerging challenge. The advent of image sharing platforms and the easy availability of advanced photo editing software have resulted in a large quantities of manipulated images being…
Current camera image and signal processing pipelines (ISPs), including deep-trained versions, tend to apply a single filter that is uniformly applied to the entire image. This is despite the fact that most acquired camera images have…
Deep learning has enabled realistic face manipulation (i.e., deepfake), which poses significant concerns over the integrity of the media in circulation. Most existing deep learning techniques for deepfake detection can achieve promising…
Existing self-supervised learning methods learn representation by means of pretext tasks which are either (1) discriminating that explicitly specify which features should be separated or (2) aligning that precisely indicate which features…
Applying standard algorithms to sparse data problems in photoacoustic tomography (PAT) yields low-quality images containing severe under-sampling artifacts. To some extent, these artifacts can be reduced by iterative image reconstruction…
Most state-of-the-art image retrieval and recommendation systems predominantly focus on individual images. In contrast, socially curated image collections, condensing distinctive yet coherent images into one set, are largely overlooked by…
In this paper, we consider the problem of fine-grained image retrieval in an incremental setting, when new categories are added over time. On the one hand, repeatedly training the representation on the extended dataset is time-consuming. On…
Recently, multi-modality scene perception tasks, e.g., image fusion and scene understanding, have attracted widespread attention for intelligent vision systems. However, early efforts always consider boosting a single task unilaterally and…
Photo finishing tuning aims to automate the manual tuning process of the photo finishing pipeline, like Adobe Lightroom or Darktable. Previous works either use zeroth-order optimization, which is slow when the set of parameters increases,…
As deep learning technology continues to evolve, the images yielded by generative models are becoming more and more realistic, triggering people to question the authenticity of images. Existing generated image detection methods detect…
Person re-identification aims to match images of the same person across disjoint camera views, which is a challenging problem in video surveillance. The major challenge of this task lies in how to preserve the similarity of the same person…
Automatic image generation is no longer just of interest to researchers, but also to practitioners. However, current models are sensitive to the settings used and automatic optimization methods often require human involvement. To bridge…
