We address the problem of cross-domain image retrieval, considering the following practical application: given a user photo depicting a clothing image, our goal is to retrieve the same or attribute-similar clothing items from online…
Diffusion probabilistic models have recently achieved remarkable success in generating high-quality images. However, balancing high perceptual quality and low distortion remains challenging in application of diffusion models in image…
Spurious features associated with class labels can lead image classifiers to rely on shortcuts that don't generalize well to new domains. This is especially problematic in medical settings, where biased models fail when applied to different…
Forensic analysis of AI-edited images requires more than binary real-versus-fake prediction: a useful system should localize the edit, identify its semantic type, and ground its decisions in visual evidence. Existing image-forensics…
As AI-generated images become increasingly photorealistic, distinguishing them from natural images poses a growing challenge. This paper presents a robust detection framework that leverages multiple uncertainty measures to decide whether to…
When there is a suspicious figure reuse case in science, research integrity investigators often find it difficult to rebut authors claiming that "it happened by chance". In other words, when there is a "collision" of image features, it is…
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images are often contaminated by a multiplicative noise known as speckle. Speckle makes the processing and interpretation of SAR images difficult. We propose a deep learning-based approach called, Image…
Given an artistic portrait, recovering the latent photorealistic face that preserves the subject's identity is challenging because the facial details are often distorted or fully lost in artistic portraits. We develop an Identity-preserving…
