Instruction-based multimodal image manipulation has recently made rapid progress. However, existing evaluation methods lack a systematic and human-aligned framework for assessing model performance on complex and creative editing tasks. To address this gap, we propose CREval, a fully automated questi
Recent advances in multi-instance learning (MIL) have demonstrated impressive performance in whole slide image (WSI) analysis. However, current methods search for cues and draw conclusions from all instances or regions, resulting in excessive redundant computation and suboptimal representation quali
Visual emotion recognition (VER), which aims at understanding humans' emotional reactions toward different visual stimuli, has attracted increasing attention. Given the subjective and ambiguous characteristics of emotion, annotating a reliable large-scale dataset is hard. For reducing reliance on da…
Recent advances in selective state space models (Mamba) have shown great promise in whole slide image (WSI) classification. Despite this, WSIs contain explicit local redundancy (similar patches) and irrelevant regions (uninformative instances), posing significant challenges for Mamba-based multi-ins…
Panoramic semantic segmentation has garnered increasing attention due to its ability to provide comprehensive environmental perception. However, it requires a large number of annotated panoramic images to achieve satisfactory performance, which is costly. Recently, Domain Adaptation for Panoramic Se…
Visual emotion recognition (VER), which aims at understanding humans’ emotional reactions toward different visual stimuli, has attracted increasing attention. However, because of the subjectivity and complex nature of emotion, existing VER methods suffer from one or more of the following problems: 1…
Multi-instance learning (MIL) has demonstrated impressive performance in whole slide image (WSI) analysis. However, existing approaches struggle with undesirable results and unbearable computational overhead due to the quadratic complexity of Transformers. Recently, Mamba has offered a feasible solu…
Reasoning is an essential capacity for large language models (LLMs) to address complex tasks, whereas the identification of process errors is vital for improving this ability. Recently, process-level reward models (PRMs) were proposed to provide step-wise rewards that facilitate reinforcement learni…
Prompt learning for vision-language models, e.g. CLIP, is a rapidly advancing topic, focusing on leveraging pre-trained foundational models to generalize to downstream tasks with minimal training samples. Current prompt-tuning methods primarily optimize on general datasets, yet their application in…
Bag-label-based multi-instance learning (MIL) has demonstrated significant performance in whole slide image (WSI) analysis, particularly in pseudo-label-based learning schemes. However, due to inaccurate feature representation and interference, existing MIL methods often yield unreliable pseudo-labe…
Visual Emotion Recognition (VER) aims to identify emotions from visual content and has garnered significant attention in recent years due to its wide-ranging applications. Although deep learning-based methods have shown success in VER, they require extensive labeled data, which is costly. Unsupervis…
Video deblurring relies on leveraging information from other frames in the video sequence to restore the blurred regions in the current frame. Mainstream approaches employ bidirectional feature propagation spatio-temporal transformers or a combination of both to extract information from the video se…
Multi-Instance Learning (MIL) has shown impressive performance for histopathology whole slide image (WSI) analysis using bags or pseudo-bags. It involves instance sampling feature representation and decision-making. However existing MIL-based technologies at least suffer from one or more of the foll…
As one of the most fundamental techniques in multimodal learning, cross-modal matching aims to project various sensory modalities into a shared feature space. To achieve this, massive and correctly aligned data pairs are required for model training. However, unlike unimodal datasets, multimodal data…
"The key success factor of the video deblurring methods is to compensate for the blurry pixels of the mid-frame with the sharp pixels of the adjacent video frames. Therefore, mainstream methods align the adjacent frames based on the estimated optical flows and fuse the alignment frames for restorati…
Temporal action proposal generation (TAPG) is a challenging task that aims to locate action instances in untrimmed videos with temporal boundaries. To evaluate the confidence of proposals, the existing works typically predict action score of proposals that are supervised by the temporal Intersectio…
Online hashing for streaming data has attracted increasing attention recently. However, most existing algorithms focus on batch inputs and instance-balanced optimization, which is limited in the single datum input case and does not match the dynamic training in online hashing. Furthermore, constantl…
Recently, several Space-Time Memory based networks have shown that the object cues (e.g. video frames as well as the segmented object masks) from the past frames are useful for segmenting objects in the current frame. However, these methods exploit the information from the memory by global-to-global…
Estimating the complete 3D point cloud from an incomplete one is a key problem in many vision and robotics applications. Mainstream methods (e.g., PCN and TopNet) use Multi-layer Perceptrons (MLPs) to directly process point clouds, which may cause the loss of details because the structural and conte…
Recovering the 3D representation of an object from single-view or multi-view RGB images by deep neural networks has attracted increasing attention in the past few years. Several mainstream works (e.g., 3D-R2N2) use recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to fuse multiple feature maps extracted from input i…
Part-based trackers are effective in exploiting local details of the target object for robust tracking. In contrast to most existing part-based methods that divide all kinds of target objects into a number of fixed rectangular patches, in this paper, we propose a novel framework in which a set of de…
In recent years, several methods have been developed to utilize hierarchical features learned from a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for visual tracking. However, as the features from a certain CNN layer characterize an object of interest from only one aspect or one level, the performance of…
Previous works on actor identification mainly focused on static features based on face identification and costume detection, without considering the abundant dynamic information contained in videos. In this paper, we propose a novel method to mine representative actions of each actor, and show the r…
