Image retrieval can be formulated as a ranking problem where the goal is to order database images by decreasing similarity to the query. Recent deep models for image retrieval have outperformed traditional methods by leveraging…

Fine-grained visual classification aims to recognize images belonging to multiple sub-categories within a same category. It is a challenging task due to the inherently subtle variations among highly-confused categories. Most existing…

Knowledge distillation is commonly employed to compress neural networks, reducing the inference costs and memory footprint. In the scenario of homogenous architecture, feature-based methods have been widely validated for their…

A vision-language foundation model pretrained on very large-scale image-text paired data has the potential to provide generalizable knowledge representation for downstream visual recognition and detection tasks, especially on supplementing…

Image retrieval aims to identify visually similar images within a database using a given query image. Traditional methods typically employ both global and local features extracted from images for matching, and may also apply re-ranking…

The dominant paradigm in image retrieval systems today is to search large databases using global image features, and re-rank those initial results with local image feature matching techniques. This design, dubbed global-to-local, stems from…

Fine-grained categories are more difficulty distinguished than generic categories due to the similarity of inter-class and the diversity of intra-class. Therefore, the fine-grained visual categorization (FGVC) is considered as one of…

The aim of image captioning is to generate captions by machine to describe image contents. Despite many efforts, generating discriminative captions for images remains non-trivial. Most traditional approaches imitate the language structure…

Representation based classification methods have become a hot research topic during the past few years, and the two most prominent approaches are sparse representation based classification (SRC) and collaborative representation based…

Real-world vision based applications require fine-grained classification for various area of interest like e-commerce, mobile applications, warehouse management, etc. where reducing the severity of mistakes and improving the classification…

Federated learning, as a promising distributed learning paradigm, enables collaborative training of a global model across multiple network edge clients without the need for central data collecting. However, the heterogeneity of edge data…

The explosive growth of video streaming presents challenges in achieving high accuracy and low training costs for video-language retrieval. However, existing methods rely on large-scale pre-training to improve video retrieval performance,…

While raw images exhibit advantages over sRGB images (e.g., linearity and fine-grained quantization level), they are not widely used by common users due to the large storage requirements. Very recent works propose to compress raw images by…

Fine-grained image retrieval (FGIR) is to learn visual representations that distinguish visually similar objects while maintaining generalization. Existing methods propose to generate discriminative features, but rarely consider the…

Few-shot learning aims at rapidly adapting to novel categories with only a handful of samples at test time, which has been predominantly tackled with the idea of meta-learning. However, meta-learning approaches essentially learn across a…

Recent advances in multimodal models highlight the pivotal role of image tokenization in high-resolution image generation. By compressing images into compact latent representations, tokenizers enable generative models to operate in…

Learning to recognize novel visual categories from a few examples is a challenging task for machines in real-world industrial applications. In contrast, humans have the ability to discriminate even similar objects with little supervision.…

Crack detection is an important task in computer vision. Despite impressive in-dataset performance, deep learning-based methods still struggle in generalizing to unseen domains. The thin structure property of cracks is usually overlooked by…

Learning visual features from unlabeled image data is an important yet challenging task, which is often achieved by training a model on some annotation-free information. We consider spatial contexts, for which we solve so-called jigsaw…

Contrastive learning-based vision-language pre-training approaches, such as CLIP, have demonstrated great success in many vision-language tasks. These methods achieve cross-modal alignment by encoding a matched image-text pair with similar…
