Referring Image Segmentation (RIS), which aims to segment specific objects based on natural language descriptions, plays an essential role in vision-language understanding. Despite its progress in remote sensing applications, RIS under Low-Altitude Drone (LAD) scenarios remains underexplored, as exi
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) face two critical limitations in visual representation learning: degraded supervision due to information loss during gradient propagation, and the inherent semantic sparsity of textual supervision compared to visual data. We propose the Diffusion Supervision Vision-Lang…
Multimodal person re-identification (Re-ID) aims to match pedestrian images across different modalities. However, most existing methods focus on limited cross-modal settings and fail to support arbitrary query-retrieval combinations, hindering practical deployment. We propose FlexiReID, a flexible f…
The current state-of-the-art No-Reference Image Quality Assessment (NR-IQA) methods typically rely on feature extraction from upstream semantic backbone networks, assuming that all extracted features are relevant. However, we make a key observation that not all features are beneficial, and some may…
Occluded person re-identification (Re-ID) aims to address the potential occlusion problem when matching occluded or holistic pedestrians from different camera views. Many methods use the background as artificial occlusion and rely on attention networks to exclude noisy interference. However, the si…
Blind Image Quality Assessment (BIQA) mirrors subjective made by human observers. Generally, humans favor comparing relative qualities over predicting absolute qualities directly. However, current BIQA models focus on mining the "local" context, i.e., the relationship between information among indiv…
While generic person re-identification has made remarkable improvement in recent years, these methods are designed under the assumption that the entire body of the person is available. This assumption brings about a significant performance degradation when suffering from occlusion caused by various…
This paper makes a step towards modeling the modality discrepancy in the cross-spectral re-identification task. Based on the Lambertain model, we observe that the non-linear modality discrepancy mainly comes from diverse linear transformations acting on the surface of different materials. From this…
Blind Image Quality Assessment (BIQA) aims to simulate human assessment of image quality. It has a great demand for labeled data, which is often insufficient in practice. Some researchers employ unsupervised methods to address this issue, which is challenging to emulate the human subjective system.…
Visible-infrared person re-identification (Re-ID) aims to match the pedestrian images of the same identity from different modalities. Existing works mainly focus on alleviating the modality discrepancy by aligning the distributions of features from different modalities. However, nuanced but discrimi…
Domain generalization (DG) offers a preferable real-world setting for Person Re-Identification (Re-ID), which trains a model using multiple source domain datasets and expects it to perform well in an unseen target domain without any model updating. Unfortunately, most DG approaches are designed expl…
Person Re-Identification (ReID) has achieved remarkable performance along with the deep learning era. However, most approaches carry out ReID only based upon holistic pedestrian regions. In contrast, real-world scenarios involve occluded pedestrians, which provide partial visual appearances and dest…
