Visually sorted grid layouts provide an efficient method for organizing high-dimensional vectors in two-dimensional space by aligning spatial proximity with similarity relationships. This approach facilitates the effective sorting of…
The quality of visual input is very important for both human and machine perception. Consequently many processing techniques exist that deal with different distortions. Usually image processing is applied freely and lacks redundancy…
Image compression has been applied in the fields of image storage and video broadcasting. However, it's formidably tough to distinguish the subtle quality differences between those distorted images generated by different algorithms. In this…
A successful approach to image quality assessment involves comparing the structural information between a distorted and its reference image. However, extracting structural information that is perceptually important to our visual system is a…
To improve the temporal and spatial storage efficiency, researchers have intensively studied various techniques, including compression and deduplication. Through our evaluation, we find that methods such as photo tags or local features help…
Visual Place recognition is commonly addressed as an image retrieval problem. However, retrieval methods are impractical to scale to large datasets, densely sampled from city-wide maps, since their dimension impact negatively on the…
Image Super-Resolution (SR) techniques improve visual quality by enhancing the spatial resolution of images. Quality evaluation metrics play a critical role in comparing and optimizing SR algorithms, but current metrics achieve only limited…
Recently, it has been shown that in super-resolution, there exists a tradeoff relationship between the quantitative and perceptual quality of super-resolved images, which correspond to the similarity to the ground-truth images and the…
In recent years, deep metric learning has achieved promising results in learning high dimensional semantic feature embeddings where the spatial relationships of the feature vectors match the visual similarities of the images. Similarity…
The comparison of images is an important task in image processing. For a comparison of two images, a variety of measures has been suggested. However, applications such as dynamic imaging or serial sectioning provide a series of many images…
Grid visualizations are widely used in many applications to visually explain a set of data and their proximity relationships. However, existing layout methods face difficulties when dealing with the inherent cluster structures within the…
This paper introduces a novel double stimulus subjective assessment methodology for the evaluation of high quality images to address the limitations of existing protocols in detecting subtle perceptual differences. The In-place Double…
There has been significant research in the last five years on ensuring the providers of items in a recommender system are treated fairly, particularly in terms of the exposure the system provides to their work through its results. However,…
Diffusion models (DMs) generate remarkable high quality images via the stochastic denoising process, which unfortunately incurs high sampling time. Post-quantizing the trained diffusion models in fixed bit-widths, e.g., 4 bits on weights…
The in-memory graph layout or organization has a considerable impact on the time and energy efficiency of distributed memory graph computations. It affects memory locality, inter-task load balance, communication time, and overall memory…
In the past few years, the number of fine-art collections that are digitized and publicly available has been growing rapidly. With the availability of such large collections of digitized artworks comes the need to develop multimedia systems…
Image defocus is inherent in the physics of image formation caused by the optical aberration of lenses, providing plentiful information on image quality. Unfortunately, existing quality enhancement approaches for compressed images neglect…
Visualizing very large matrices involves many formidable problems. Various popular solutions to these problems involve sampling, clustering, projection, or feature selection to reduce the size and complexity of the original task. An…
We present a model to measure the similarity in appearance between different materials, which correlates with human similarity judgments. We first create a database of 9,000 rendered images depicting objects with varying materials, shape…
Learning fine-grained image similarity is a challenging task. It needs to capture between-class and within-class image differences. This paper proposes a deep ranking model that employs deep learning techniques to learn similarity metric…
