Many image processing tasks involve image-to-image mapping, which can be addressed well by fully convolutional networks (FCN) without any heavy preprocessing. Although empirically designing and training FCNs can achieve satisfactory…
Current image-to-image translation methods formulate the task with conditional generation models, leading to learning only the recolorization or regional changes as being constrained by the rich structural information provided by the…
Many data sets, crucial for today's applications, consist essentially of enormous networks, containing millions or even billions of elements. Having the possibility of visualizing such networks is of paramount importance. We propose an…
Streets networks provide an invaluable source of information about the different temporal and spatial patterns emerging in our cities. These streets are often represented as graphs where intersections are modelled as nodes and streets as…
Images greatly help in understanding, interpreting and visualizing data. Adding textual description to images is the first and foremost principle of web accessibility. Visually impaired users using screen readers will use these textual…
There is a delicate balance between automating repetitive work in creative domains while staying true to an artist's vision. The animation industry regularly outsources large animation workloads to foreign countries where labor is…
What is a good visual representation for autonomous agents? We address this question in the context of semantic visual navigation, which is the problem of a robot finding its way through a complex environment to a target object, e.g. go to…
Local clustering aims at extracting a local structure inside a graph without the necessity of knowing the entire graph structure. As the local structure is usually small in size compared to the entire graph, one can think of it as a…
Transportation networks serve as windows into the complex world of urban systems. By properly characterizing a road network, we can therefore better understand its encompassing urban system. This study offers a geometrical approach towards…
Graph is a universe data structure that is widely used to organize data in real-world. Various real-word networks like the transportation network, social and academic network can be represented by graphs. Recent years have witnessed the…
Littering quantification is an important step for improving cleanliness of cities. When human interpretation is too cumbersome or in some cases impossible, an objective index of cleanliness could reduce the littering by awareness actions.…
