Small-amplitude Red Giants Elucidate the Nature of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a Standard Candle

Richard Irving Anderson, Nolan Wayne Koblischke

The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) is an important standard candle for determining luminosity distances. Although several 105 small-amplitude red giant stars (SARGs) have been discovered, variability was previously considered irrelevant for the TRGB as ...

Pedestrian intention prediction: A convolutional bottom-up multi-task approach

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan

The ability to predict pedestrian behaviour is crucial for road safety, traffic management systems, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), and more broadly autonomous vehicles. We present a vision-based system that simultaneously locates where pedestri ...

Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Distributed Machine Learning with Norm-Based Comparative Gradient Elimination

Nirupam Gupta, Shuo Liu

This paper considers the Byzantine fault-tolerance problem in distributed stochastic gradient descent (D-SGD) method - a popular algorithm for distributed multi-agent machine learning. In this problem, each agent samples data points independently from a ce ...

Square Attack: a query-efficient black-box adversarial attack via random search

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion, Maksym Andriushchenko, Francesco Croce

We propose the Square Attack, a new score-based black-box

l_2

and

l_\infty

adversarial attack that does not rely on local gradient information and thus is not affected by gradient masking. The Square Attack is based on a randomized search scheme where ...

A note on efficient computation of privileged directions in modifier adaptation

Dominique Bonvin, Martand Singhal, Timm Faulwasser, Alejandro Gabriel Marchetti

In the presence of plant-model mismatch, the estimation of plant gradients is key to the performance of measurement-based iterative optimization schemes. However, gradient estimation requires time-consuming experiments, wherein the plant is sequentially pe ...

Multiscale Centerline Extraction Based on Regression and Projection onto the Set of Elongated Structures

Amos Sironi

Automatically extracting linear structures from images is a fundamental low-level vision problem with numerous applications in different domains. Centerline detection and radial estimation are the first crucial steps in most Computer Vision pipelines aimin ...

Coupled Structure-from-Motion and 3D Symmetry Detection for Urban Facades

Mark Pauly, Duygu Ceylan

Repeated structures are ubiquitous in urban facades. Such repetitions lead to ambiguity in establishing correspondences across sets of unordered images. A decoupled structure-from-motion reconstruction followed by symmetry detection often produces errors: ...

Gradient Response Maps for Real-Time Detection of Textureless Objects

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Slobodan Ilic

We present a method for real-time 3D object instance detection that does not require a time-consuming training stage, and can handle untextured objects. At its core, our approach is a novel image representation for template matching designed to be robust t ...

A Signal Processing Approach to Generalized 1-D Total Variation

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Fikret Isik Karahanoglu, Ilker Bayram

Total variation (TV) is a powerful method that brings great benefit for edge-preserving regularization. Despite being widely employed in image processing, it has restricted applicability for 1-D signal processing since piecewise-constant signals form a rat ...

Robust Multi-View Change Detection

Pascal Fua, François Fleuret, Jérôme Berclaz, Alessandro Lanza

We present a multi-view change detection approach aimed at being robust with respect to common “disturbance factors” yielding image changes in realworld applications. Disturbance factors causing “slow” or “fast-and-global” image variations, such as light c ...
