"StyleGAN family is one of the most popular Generative adversarial networks (GANs) for unconditional generation. Despite its impressive performance, its high demand on storage and computation impedes their deployment on resource-constrained devices. This paper provides a comprehensive study of disti…
Recent works have shown that interval bound propagation (IBP) can be used to train verifiably robust neural networks. Reseachers observe an intriguing phenomenon on these IBP trained networks: CROWN, a bounding method based on tight linear relaxation, often gives very loose bounds on these networks.…
Scene, as the crucial unit of storytelling in movies, contains complex activities of actors and their interactions in a physical environment. Identifying the composition of scenes serves as a critical step towards semantic understanding of movies. This is very challenging - compared to the videos st…
Knowledge distillation, which involves extracting the ""dark knowledge"" from a teacher network to guide the learning of a student network, has emerged as an important technique for model compression and transfer learning. Unlike previous works that exploit architecture-specific cues such as activat…
This paper addresses the problem of defocus map estimation from a single image. We present a fast yet effective approach to estimate the spatially varying amounts of defocus blur at edge locations, which is based on the maximum, ranks of the corresponding local patches with different orientations in…
