Vectors of Locally Aggregated Descriptors (VLAD) have emerged as powerful image/video representations that compete with or even outperform state-of-the-art approaches on many challenging visual recognition tasks. In this paper, we address…

In this paper, we propose a new video object detector (VoD) method referred to as temporal feature aggregation and motion-aware VoD (TM-VoD), which produces a joint representation of temporal image sequences and object motion. The proposed…

We present a novel compact image descriptor for large scale image search. Our proposed descriptor - Geometric VLAD (gVLAD) is an extension of VLAD (Vector of Locally Aggregated Descriptors) that incorporates weak geometry information into…

For face presentation attack detection (PAD), most of the spoofing cues are subtle, local image patterns (e.g., local image distortion, 3D mask edge and cut photo edges). The representations of existing PAD works with simple global pooling…

One of the central challenges in visual place recognition (VPR) is learning a robust global representation that remains discriminative under large viewpoint changes, illumination variations, and severe domain shifts. While visual foundation…

Compared with still image object detection, video object detection (VOD) needs to particularly concern the high across-frame variation in object appearance, and the diverse deterioration in some frames. In principle, the detection in a…

This paper aims to learn a compact representation of a video for video face recognition task. We make the following contributions: first, we propose a meta attention-based aggregation scheme which adaptively and fine-grained weighs the…

The workflow of extracting features from images using convolutional neural networks (CNN) and generating captions with recurrent neural networks (RNN) has become a de-facto standard for image captioning task. However, since CNN features are…

Video objection detection (VID) has been a rising research direction in recent years. A central issue of VID is the appearance degradation of video frames caused by fast motion. This problem is essentially ill-posed for a single frame.…

Visual Place Recognition (VPR) is a crucial component of many visual localization pipelines for embodied agents. VPR is often formulated as an image retrieval task aimed at jointly learning local features and an aggregation method. The…

Frame-level visual features are generally aggregated in time with the techniques such as LSTM, Fisher Vectors, NetVLAD etc. to produce a robust video-level representation. We here introduce a learnable aggregation technique whose primary…

In image retrieval, deep local features learned in a data-driven manner have been demonstrated effective to improve retrieval performance. To realize efficient retrieval on large image database, some approaches quantize deep local features…

Several recent works have shown that image descriptors produced by deep convolutional neural networks provide state-of-the-art performance for image classification and retrieval problems. It has also been shown that the activations from the…

With the advances in both stable interest region detectors and robust and distinctive descriptors, local feature-based image or object retrieval has become a popular research topic. %All of the local feature-based image retrieval system…

Text-video retrieval is a challenging task that aims to search relevant video contents based on natural language descriptions. The key to this problem is to measure text-video similarities in a joint embedding space. However, most existing…

Object-Centric Learning (OCL) aggregates image or video feature maps into object-level feature vectors, termed \textit{slots}. It's self-supervision of reconstructing the input from slots struggles with complex object textures, thus Vision…

Recent cutting-edge feature aggregation paradigms for video object detection rely on inferring feature correspondence. The feature correspondence estimation problem is fundamentally difficult due to poor image quality, motion blur, etc, and…

The availability of city-scale Lidar maps enables the potential of city-scale place recognition using mobile cameras. However, the city-scale Lidar maps generally need to be compressed for storage efficiency, which increases the difficulty…
