Existing human attention modeling methods persist as highly fragmented across modalities, scenes, and task formulations. Consequently, even with increasing model capacity and data scale, current models predominantly remain scene-dependent and task-specific, failing to practically generalize in real-…
Camouflaged scene understanding (CSU) has attracted significant attention due to its broad practical implications. However, in this field, robust image-text cross-modal alignment remains under-explored, hindering deeper understanding of camouflaged scenarios and their related applications. To this e
Non-Exemplar Class Incremental Learning (NECIL) strives to preserve classification performance in an evolving data stream without revisiting old-class exemplars. Current methods mitigate catastrophic forgetting by replaying and augmenting historical prototypes as surrogates for old classes. However,
High-precision dichotomous image segmentation (DIS) is a task of extracting fine-grained objects from high-resolution images.Existing methods trade efficiency for accuracy: non-diffusion methods are fast but suffer from weak semantics and unstable spatial priors, causing false detections; diffusion-
The core challenge in camouflaged object detection (COD) is identifying objects that blend seamlessly with their surroundings. Existing methods emulate the strategies biological organisms break camouflage by manually constructing modules with expert knowledge from existing segmentation tasks, making…
RGB-D Video Salient Object Detection has gained increasing interest, but existing models often struggle to balance efficiency and accuracy, hindering their applications on resource-constrained devices. A key challenge in designing lightweight models is maintaining accuracy while reducing parameters.…
Multi-object images are widely present in the real world, spanning various areas of daily life. Efficient and accurate editing of these images is crucial for applications such as augmented reality, advertisement design, and medical imaging. Stable Diffusion (SD) has ushered in a new era of high-qual…
Existing salient object detection (SOD) models primarily resort to convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and Transformers. However, the limited receptive fields of CNNs and quadratic computational complexity of transformers both constrain the performance of current models on discovering attention-gra…
Appearance and motion are two important sources of information in video object segmentation (VOS). Previous methods mainly focus on using simplex solutions, lowering the upper bound of feature collaboration among and across these two cues. In this paper, we study a novel framework, termed the FSNet…
RGB-D salient object detection (SOD) recently has attracted increasing research interest and many deep learning methods based on encoder-decoder architectures have emerged. However, most existing RGB-D SOD models conduct feature fusion either in the single encoder or the decoder stage, which hardly…
This paper proposes a novel joint learning and densely-cooperative fusion (JL-DCF) architecture for RGB-D salient object detection. Existing models usually treat RGB and depth as independent information and design separate networks for feature extraction from each. Such schemes can easily be constra…
In this paper we address the issue of enhancing salient object detection through diffusion-based techniques. For reliably diffusing the energy from labeled seeds, we propose a novel graph-based diffusion scheme called affinity learning-based diffusion (ALD), which is based on learning full-range aff…
The establishment of robust target appearance model over time is an overriding concern in visual tracking. In this paper, we propose an inverse nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) method for robust appearance modeling. Rather than using a linear combination of nonnegative basis vectors for each t…
Saliency propagation has been widely adopted for identifying the most attractive object in an image. The propagation sequence generated by existing saliency detection methods is governed by the spatial relationships of image regions, i.e., the saliency value is transmitted between two adjacent regio…
Small target detection is a critical problem in the Infrared Search And Track (IRST) system. Although it has been studied for years, there are some challenges remained, e.g. cloud edges and horizontal lines are likely to cause false alarms. This paper proposes a novel method using an optimization-ba…
