Improving Few-Shot Object Detection with Object Part Proposals

Devis Tuia, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Arthur Chevalley

Few-Shot Object Detection (FSOD) allows fast adaptation of an object detection model to new classes of objects using few examples per class. This has many applications, in particular in satellite and aerial observation, as it allows learning from experts w ...

Learning and leveraging shared domain semantics to counteract visual domain shifts

Róger Bermúdez Chacón

One of the main limitations of artificial intelligence today is its inability to adapt to unforeseen circumstances. Machine Learning (ML), due to its data-driven nature, is particularly susceptible to this. ML relies on observations in order to learn impli ...

Dual Generator Generative Adversarial Networks for Multi-domain Image-to-Image Translation

Yan Yan, Wei Wang

State-of-the-art methods for image-to-image translation with Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) can learn a mapping from one domain to another domain using unpaired image data. However, these methods require the training of one specific model for every ...

Achieving high-resolution thermal imagery in low-contrast lake surface waters by aerial remote sensing and image registration

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Daniel Sage, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi

A two-platform measurement system for realizing airborne thermography of the Lake Surface Water Temperature (LSWT) with ~0.8 m pixel resolution (sub-pixel satellite scale) is presented. It consists of a tethered Balloon Launched Imaging and Monitoring Plat ...

On Matching Pursuit and Coordinate Descent

Martin Jaggi, Sebastian Urban Stich, Sai Praneeth Reddy Karimireddy, Anant Raj

Two popular examples of first-order optimization methods over linear spaces are coordinate descent and matching pursuit algorithms, with their randomized variants. While the former targets the optimization by moving along coordinates, the latter considers ...

Blob properties in full-turbulence simulations of the TCV scrape-off layer

Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Benoît Labit, Fabio Avino, Federico Nespoli, Federico David Halpern, Fabio Riva

To investigate blob properties in the tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL), we perform dedicated numerical nonlinear simulations of plasma turbulence in the SOL of a TCV discharge using the Global Braginskii Solver code. A blob detection technique is used for th ...

Hermite Snakes with Control of Tangents

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann

We introduce a new model of parametric contours defined in a continuous fashion. Our curve model relies on Hermite spline interpolation and can easily generate curves with sharp discontinuities; it also grants direct access to the tangent at each location. ...

Domain Adaptation for Microscopy Imaging

Pascal Fua, Carlos Joaquin Becker, Christos Marios Christoudias

Electron and Light Microscopy imaging can now deliver high-quality image stacks of neural structures. However, the amount of human annotation effort required to analyze them remains a major bottleneck. While Machine Learning algorithms can be used to help ...

Steerable PCA for Rotation-Invariant Image Recognition

Michaël Unser, Cédric René Jean Vonesch, Frédéric Stauber

In this paper, we propose a continuous-domain version of principal-component analysis, with the constraint that the underlying family of templates appears at arbitrary orientations. We show that the corresponding principal components are steerable. Our met ...

Non-Linear Domain Adaptation with Boosting

Pascal Fua, Carlos Joaquin Becker, Christos Marios Christoudias

A common assumption in machine vision is that the training and test samples are drawn from the same distribution. However, there are many problems when this assumption is grossly violated, as in bio-medical applications where different acquisitions can gen ...

Quotient-method Algorithms for Input-affine Single-input Nonlinear Systems

Willson Sudarsandhari Shibani

Many real-world systems are intrinsically nonlinear. This thesis proposes various algorithms for designing control laws for input-affine single-input nonlinear systems. These algorithms, which are based on the concept of quotients used in nonlinear control ...

On Sums of Locally Testable Affine Invariant Properties

Ghid Maatouk, Elena Grigorescu

Affine-invariant properties are an abstract class of properties that generalize some central algebraic ones, such as linearity and low-degree-ness, that have been studied extensively in the context of property testing. Affine invariant properties consider ...

Spatio-Chromatic Decorrelation by Shift-Invariant Filtering

Pascal Fua, Sabine Süsstrunk, Matthew Brown

In this paper we derive convolutional filters for colour image whitening and decorrelation. Whilst whitening can be achieved via eigendecomposition of the image patch covariance, this operation is neither efficient nor biologically plausible. Given the shi ...

Learning Real-Time Perspective Patch Rectification

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit

We propose two learning-based methods to patch rectification that are faster and more reliable than state-of-the-art affine region detection methods. Given a reference view of a patch, they can quickly recognize it in new views and accurately estimate the ...
