Self-supervised learning aims to learn image feature representations without the usage of manually annotated labels. It is often used as a precursor step to obtain useful initial network weights which contribute to faster convergence and…

Animals are described as effectively camouflaged when they blend seamlessly with their surrounding, yet no standardized quantitative measure of this seamlessness exists. We address this gap by framing camouflage evaluation as a visual…

Siamese deep-network trackers have received significant attention in recent years due to their real-time speed and state-of-the-art performance. However, Siamese trackers suffer from similar looking confusers, that are prevalent in aerial…
