Sparse query-based detectors have emerged as the dominant paradigm in camera-only 3D object detection, owing to their exceptional performance and computational efficiency. A central component of these approaches is the use of reference points, which serve as learnable spatial anchors to guide queri
Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning (FSCIL) aims to continually learn novel classes based on only few training samples, which poses a more challenging task than the well-studied Class-Incremental Learning (CIL) due to data scarcity. While knowledge distillation, a prevailing technique in CIL, can al…
Recent developments of the application of Contrastive Learning in Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) have demonstrated significant advancements, as a result of its exceptional ability to learn class-aware cluster representations and the full exploitation of massive unlabeled data. However, mismatched in…
"Knowledge distillation learns a lightweight student model that mimics a cumbersome teacher. Existing methods regard the knowledge as the feature of each instance or their relations, which is the instance-level knowledge only from the teacher model, i.e., the local knowledge. However, the empirical…
Open Set Recognition (OSR) has been an emerging topic. Besides recognizing predefined classes, the system needs to reject the unknowns. Prototype learning is a potential manner to handle the problem, as its ability to improve intra-class compactness of representations is much needed in discriminatio…
Recently end-to-end scene text spotting has become a popular research topic due to its advantages of global optimization and high maintainability in real applications. Most methods attempt to develop various region of interest (RoI) operations to concatenate the detection part and the sequence recog…
Arbitrary text appearance poses a great challenge in scene text recognition tasks. Existing works mostly handle with the problem in consideration of the shape distortion, including perspective distortions, line curvature or other style variations. Rectification (i.e., spatial transformers) as the pr…
Scene text recognition has been a hot research topic in computer vision due to its various applications. The state of the art is the attention-based encoder-decoder framework that learns the mapping between input images and output sequences in a purely data-driven way. However, we observe that exist…
