Few-shot semantic segmentation models aim to segment images after learning from only a few annotated examples. A key challenge for them is how to avoid overfitting because limited training data is available. While prior works usually…
The objective of this work is to segment high-resolution images without overloading GPU memory usage or losing the fine details in the output segmentation map. The memory constraint means that we must either downsample the big image or…
This paper focuses on vision-based pose estimation for multiple rigid objects placed in clutter, especially in cases involving occlusions and objects resting on each other. Progress has been achieved recently in object recognition given…
In this paper, we propose a unified panoptic segmentation network (UPSNet) for tackling the newly proposed panoptic segmentation task. On top of a single backbone residual network, we first design a deformable convolution based semantic…
Audio-visual speech separation aims to isolate each speaker's clean voice from mixtures by leveraging visual cues such as lip movements and facial features. While visual information provides complementary semantic guidance, existing methods…
Camouflaged object detection (COD) and salient object detection (SOD) are two distinct yet closely-related computer vision tasks widely studied during the past decades. Though sharing the same purpose of segmenting an image into binary…
Object detection and semantic segmentation are two main themes in object retrieval from high-resolution remote sensing images, which have recently achieved remarkable performance by surfing the wave of deep learning and, more notably,…
