The goal of Scene-level Sketch-Based Image Retrieval is to retrieve natural images matching the overall semantics and spatial layout of a free-hand sketch. Unlike prior work focused on architectural augmentations of retrieval models, we…

Data-dependent hashing methods have demonstrated good performance in various machine learning applications to learn a low-dimensional representation from the original data. However, they still suffer from several obstacles: First, most of…

Sketching is widely used in randomized linear algebra for low-rank matrix approximation, column subset selection, and many other problems, and it has gained significant traction in machine learning applications. However, sketching large…

Sketching is a probabilistic data compression technique that has been largely developed in the computer science community. Numerical operations on big datasets can be intolerably slow; sketching algorithms address this issue by generating a…

In this paper, we develop an efficient sketchy empirical natural gradient method (SENG) for large-scale deep learning problems. The empirical Fisher information matrix is usually low-rank since the sampling is only practical on a small…

Recent work has explored transforming data sets into smaller, approximate summaries in order to scale Bayesian inference. We examine a related problem in which the parameters of a Bayesian model are very large and expensive to store in…

To reduce the computational cost of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) on resource-constrained devices, structured pruning approaches have shown promise in lowering floating-point operations (FLOPs) without substantial drops in accuracy.…

Very deep convolutional neural networks offer excellent recognition results, yet their computational expense limits their impact for many real-world applications. We introduce BlockDrop, an approach that learns to dynamically choose which…

Recently, there have been several promising methods to generate realistic imagery from deep convolutional networks. These methods sidestep the traditional computer graphics rendering pipeline and instead generate imagery at the pixel level…

This paper, for the first time, marries large foundation models with human sketch understanding. We demonstrate what this brings -- a paradigm shift in terms of generalised sketch representation learning (e.g., classification). This…

Recent advancements in large vision-language models have enabled highly expressive and diverse vector sketch generation. However, state-of-the-art methods rely on a time-consuming optimization process involving repeated feedback from a…

We propose a new operator-sketching paradigm for designing efficient iterative data-driven reconstruction (IDR) schemes, e.g. Plug-and-Play algorithms and deep unrolling networks. These IDR schemes are currently the state-of-the-art…

Building compact convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with reliable performance is a critical but challenging task, especially when deploying them in real-world applications. As a common approach to reduce the size of CNNs, pruning methods…

As the first step of the restoration process of painted relics, sketch extraction plays an important role in cultural research. However, sketch extraction suffers from serious disease corrosion, which results in broken lines and noise. To…

We propose a method for scene-level sketch-to-photo synthesis with text guidance. Although object-level sketch-to-photo synthesis has been widely studied, whole-scene synthesis is still challenging without reference photos that adequately…

Continual learning remains challenging due to catastrophic forgetting, where neural networks lose previously acquired knowledge when learning new tasks. Inspired by memory consolidation in neuroscience, we propose FSC-Net (Fast-Slow…
