The message passing–readout framework has become the de facto standard of graph neural networks (GNNs) for material property prediction. However, most existing readout functions are built on an atom-decomposable inductive bias, i.e. the material-level property or feature can be reasonably assigned t…
Spatial multi-omics technologies jointly profile diverse molecular modalities with spatial context, providing a comprehensive view of cellular heterogeneity and tissue organization. To integrate spatial multi-omics data and identify spatial domains, a wide range of unsupervised methods has been prop
In time-lapse microscopy, inherent noise significantly limits imaging sensitivity and increases measurement uncertainty. Due to the scarcity of clean data, zero-shot approaches have emerged as highly data-efficient solutions for microscopy denoising. However, existing methods typically process video…
Multimodal Learning with visual and tabular modalities has become more and more popular nowadays, especially in the healthcare area. Due to the adaptation of new equipment or new factors being introduced, the tabular modality keeps changing. However, the standard process of training multimodal AI mo
Generating high-quality images that conform to the semantics of captions has numerous potential applications. However, text-to-image generation is a challenging task due to its cross-modality nature. Current generative models are typically unstable, meaning that complex sentences can result in poor…
Existing recurrent optical flow estimation networks are computationally expensive since they use a fixed large number of iterations to update the flow field for each sample. An efficient network should skip iterations when the flow improvement is limited. In this paper, we develop a Context-Aware It…
Data-driven learning models have demonstrated strong benefits in capturing subtle facial movements for micro-expression recognition (MER), but are limited by the available data. Generative models can generate a variety of new data, but are typically computationally prohibitive compared to efficient…
With the rise of real-time rendering and the evolution of display devices, there is a growing demand for post-processing methods that offer high-resolution content in a high frame rate. Existing techniques often suffer from quality and latency issues due to the disjointed treatment of frame supersam…
Deep learning-based models have made great progress in image tampering localization, which aims to distinguish between manipulated and authentic regions. However, these models suffer from inefficient training. This is because they use ground-truth mask labels mainly through the cross-entropy loss, w…
Optical Flow Estimation aims to find the 2D dense motion field between two frames. Due to the limitation of model structures and training datasets, existing methods often rely too much on local clues and ignore the integrity of objects, resulting in fragmented motion estimation. Through theoretical…
Inpainting is a task to restore occlusion or other corruption on images. However, previous works require mask of the occluded area to restore the occluded image, which is inconvenient for application. Blind face inpainting aims to automatically restore the occluded face without position information…
Survival analysis aims at modeling the relationship between covariates and event occurrence with some untracked (censored) samples. In implementation, existing methods model the survival distribution with strong assumptions or in a discrete time space for likelihood estimation with censorship, which…
Image-based single-modality compression learning approaches have demonstrated exceptionally powerful encoding and decoding capabilities in the past few years , but suffer from blur and severe semantics loss at extremely low bitrates. To address this issue, we propose a multimodal machine learning me…
In recent years, many convolutional neural network-based models are designed for JPEG artifacts reduction, and have achieved notable progress. However, few methods are suitable for extreme low-bitrate image compression artifacts reduction. The main challenge is that the highly compressed image loses…
Recently, unsupervised image denoising methods learning from paired noisy samples have received increasing attention. These methods build on the idea that the mean of multiple noisy images of the same scene is the ideal clean image. However, these methods ignore the effect of Aleatoric uncertainty i…
Recent image-based rendering (IBR) methods usually adopt plenty of views to reconstruct dense scene geometry. However, the number of available views is limited in practice. When only few views are provided, the performance of these methods drops off significantly, as the scene geometry becomes spars…
In recent years, optical flow methods develop rapidly, achieving unprecedented high performance. Most of the methods only consider single-modal optical flow under the well-known brightness-constancy assumption. However, in many application systems, images of different modalities need to be aligned,…
Deep learning algorithms have made significant progress in dynamic scene deblurring. However, several challenges are still unsettled: 1) The degree and scale of blur in different regions of a blurred image can have a considerable variation in a large range. However, the traditional input pyramid or…
With the wide use of artistic images, aesthetic quality assessment has been widely concerned. How to integrate aesthetics into image editing is still a problem worthy of discussion. In this paper, aesthetic assessment is introduced into eye in-painting task for the first time. We construct an eye ae…
Under stereo settings, the problems of disparity estimation, stereo magnification and stereo-view synthesis have gathered wide attention. However, the limited image quality brings non-negligible difficulties in developing related applications and becomes the main bottleneck of stereo images. To the…
Identifying small size images or small objects is a notoriously challenging problem, as discriminative representations are difficult to learn from the limited information contained in them with poor-quality appearance and unclear object structure. Existing research works usually increase the resolut…
