The exponential growth in waste production due to rapid economic and industrial development necessitates efficient waste management strategies to mitigate environmental pollution and resource depletion. Leveraging advancements in computer…

Retrieving images from the same location as a given query is an important component of multiple computer vision tasks, like Visual Place Recognition, Landmark Retrieval, Visual Localization, 3D reconstruction, and SLAM. However, existing…

In this paper, we propose a solution for cross-modal transportation retrieval. Due to the cross-domain problem of traffic images, we divide the problem into two sub-tasks of pedestrian retrieval and vehicle retrieval through a simple…

Many automated machine learning methods, such as those for hyperparameter and neural architecture optimization, are computationally expensive because they involve training many different model configurations. In this work, we present a new…

This paper describes the approach we have taken in the challenge. We still adopted the two-stage scheme same as the last champion, that is, detection first and segmentation followed. We trained more powerful detector and segmentor…

Weight sharing has become a de facto standard in neural architecture search because it enables the search to be done on commodity hardware. However, recent works have empirically shown a ranking disorder between the performance of…

In neural Information Retrieval, ongoing research is directed towards improving the first retriever in ranking pipelines. Learning dense embeddings to conduct retrieval using efficient approximate nearest neighbors methods has proven to…

Our work aimed at experimentally assessing the benefits of model ensembling within the context of neural methods for passage reranking. Starting from relatively standard neural models, we use a previous technique named Fast Geometric…

Image retrieval is the problem of searching an image database for items that are similar to a query image. To address this task, two main types of image representations have been studied: global and local image features. In this work, our…

Landmark detection for clothes is a fundamental problem for many applications. In this paper, a new training scheme for clothes landmark detection: $\textit{Aggregation and Finetuning}$, is proposed. We investigate the homogeneity among…

In this paper, we address the problem of global-scale image geolocation, proposing a mixed classification-retrieval scheme. Unlike other methods that strictly tackle the problem as a classification or retrieval task, we combine the two…

In this paper, we propose two methods for tackling the problem of cross-device matching for online advertising at CIKM Cup 2016. The first method considers the matching problem as a binary classification task and solve it by utilizing…

We extend the classical tracking-by-detection paradigm to this tracking-any-object task. Solid detection results are first extracted from TAO dataset. Some state-of-the-art techniques like \textbf{BA}lanced-\textbf{G}roup \textbf{S}oftmax…

We address the problem of vehicle self-localization from multi-modal sensor information and a reference map. The map is generated off-line by extracting landmarks from the vehicle's field of view, while the measurements are collected…

This paper presents the 3rd place solution to the Google Universal Image Embedding Competition on Kaggle. We use ViT-H/14 from OpenCLIP for the backbone of ArcFace, and trained in 2 stage. 1st stage is done with freezed backbone, and 2nd…

In this paper, we introduce a novel method that combines multiple neural network results to decide the class of the input. This is the first study which used the method for web pages classification. In our model, each element is represented…

Camera localization methods based on retrieval, local feature matching, and 3D structure-based pose estimation are accurate but require high storage, are slow, and are not privacy-preserving. A method based on scene landmark detection (SLD)…

In this paper, we explore and evaluate the use of ranking-based objective functions for learning simultaneously a word string and a word image encoder. We consider retrieval frameworks in which the user expects a retrieval list ranked…

Measuring the generalization performance of a Deep Neural Network (DNN) without relying on a validation set is a difficult task. In this work, we propose exploiting Latent Geometry Graphs (LGGs) to represent the latent spaces of trained DNN…

This paper introduces the 2nd place solution for the Riiid! Answer Correctness Prediction in Kaggle, the world's largest data science competition website. This competition was held from October 16, 2020, to January 7, 2021, with 3395 teams…
