Learning with limited data is one of the biggest problems of machine learning. Current approaches to this issue consist in learning general representations from huge amounts of data before fine-tuning the model on a small dataset of…

Visual error metrics play a fundamental role in the quantification of perceived image similarity. Most recently, use cases for them in real-time applications have emerged, such as content-adaptive shading and shading reuse to increase…

The convolution operation is a central building block of neural network architectures widely used in computer vision. The size of the convolution kernels determines both the expressiveness of convolutional neural networks (CNN), as well as…

As data-driven methods rise in popularity in materials science applications, a key question is how these machine learning models can be used to understand microstructure. Given the importance of process-structure-property relations…

Inferring the connectivity structure of networked systems from data is an extremely important task in many areas of science. Most of real-world networks exhibit sparsely connected topologies, with links between nodes that in some cases may…

Local covariant feature detection, namely the problem of extracting viewpoint invariant features from images, has so far largely resisted the application of machine learning techniques. In this paper, we propose the first fully general…

When optimizing convolutional neural networks (CNN) for a specific image-based task, specialists commonly overshoot the number of convolutional layers in their designs. By implication, these CNNs are unnecessarily resource intensive to…

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are able to attain better visual recognition performance than fully connected neural networks despite having much fewer parameters due to their parameter sharing principle. Modern architectures usually…

Modern machine learning often relies on optimizing a neural network's parameters using a loss function to learn complex features. Beyond training, examining the loss function with respect to a network's parameters (i.e., as a loss…

Recent work has shown that convolutional networks can be substantially deeper, more accurate, and efficient to train if they contain shorter connections between layers close to the input and those close to the output. In this paper, we…

Tensor decomposition is one of the well-known approaches to reduce the latency time and number of parameters of a pre-trained model. However, in this paper, we propose an approach to use tensor decomposition to reduce training time of…

Visual attributes are great means of describing images or scenes, in a way both humans and computers understand. In order to establish a correspondence between images and to be able to compare the strength of each property between images,…

There is a growing interest in designing models that can deal with images from different visual domains. If there exists a universal structure in different visual domains that can be captured via a common parameterization, then we can use a…

Even though convolutional neural networks can classify objects in images very accurately, it is well known that the attention of the network may not always be on the semantically important regions of the scene. It has been observed that…

Hyperparameters tuning is a time-consuming approach, particularly when the architecture of the neural network is decided as part of this process. For instance, in convolutional neural networks (CNNs), the selection of the number and the…
