Crowd counting has achieved significant progress by training regressors to predict instance positions. In heavily crowded scenarios however regressors are challenged by uncontrollable annotation variance which causes density map bias and context information inaccuracy. In this study we propose mutua…
"With the development of the large-scale diffusion model, Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) techniques are popular recently. However, how to truly make it serve our daily lives remains an open question. To this end, in this paper, we focus on employing AIGC techniques in one filed of…
In the realm of autonomous driving, real-time perception or streaming perception remains under-explored. This research introduces DAMO-StreamNet, a novel framework that merges the cutting-edge elements of the YOLO series with a detailed examination of spatial and temporal perception techniques. DAMO…
Along with the widespread use of face recognition systems, their vulnerability has become highlighted. While existing face anti-spoofing methods can be generalized between attack types, generic solutions are still challenging due to the diversity of spoof characteristics. Recently, the spoof trace d…
End-to-end pedestrian detection focuses on training a pedestrian detection model via discarding the Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) post-processing. Though a few methods have been explored, most of them still suffer from longer training time and more complex deployment, which cannot be deployed in the…
The ultimate goal of semi-supervised object detection (SSOD) is to facilitate the utilization and deployment of detectors in actual applications with the help of a large amount of unlabeled data. Although a few works have proposed various self-training-based methods or consistency-regularization-bas…
Deep Metric Learning (DML) has been more attractive and widely applied in many computer vision tasks, in which a discriminative embedding is requested such that the image features belonging to the same class are gathered together and the ones belonging to different classes are pushed apart. Most exi…
In crowd counting, due to the problem of laborious labelling, it is perceived intractability of collecting a new large-scale dataset which has plentiful images with large diversity in density, scene, etc. Thus, for learning a general model, training with data from multiple different datasets might b…
Recently, exploiting the effect of the unlabeled data for face recognition attracts increasing attention. However, there are still few works considering the situation that the unlabeled data is shallow which widely exists in real-world scenarios. The existing semi-supervised face recognition methods…
In zero-shot image retrieval (ZSIR) task, embedding learning becomes more attractive, however, many methods follow the traditional metric learning idea and omit the problems behind zero-shot settings. In this paper, we first emphasize the importance of learning visual discriminative metric and preve…
Attention has become more attractive in person re-identification (ReID) as it is capable of biasing the allocation of available resources towards the most informative parts of an input signal. However, state-of-the-art works concentrate only on coarse or first-order attention design, e.g. spatial an…
Deep metric learning, which learns discriminative features to process image clustering and retrieval tasks, has attracted extensive attention in recent years. A number of deep metric learning methods, which ensure that similar examples are mapped close to each other and dissimilar examples are mappe…
Recently, learning discriminative features to improve the recognition performances gradually becomes the primary goal of deep learning, and numerous remarkable works have emerged. In this paper, we propose a novel yet extremely simple method Virtual Softmax to enhance the discriminative property of…
Over the past few years, softmax and SGD have become a commonly used component and the default training strategy in CNN frameworks, respectively. However, when optimizing CNNs with SGD, the saturation behavior behind softmax always gives us an illusion of training well and then is omitted. In this p…
