Ultrasound-Guided Registration Pseudo-Labels for Semi-Supervised Brachial Plexus Segmentation

ICASSP 2025accepted

In semi-supervised medical image segmentation, two main challenges arise. First, the quality of pseudo-labels generated by segmentation networks in data-limited scenarios is often poor, reducing segmentation accuracy. Second, many methods fail to effectively utilize the temporal context in video dat…

TextShield: Beyond Successfully Detecting Adversarial Sentences in text classification

ICLR 2023poster

Adversarial attack serves as a major challenge for neural network models in NLP, which precludes the model's deployment in safety-critical applications. A recent line of work, detection-based defense, aims to distinguish adversarial sentences from benign ones. However, {the core limitation of previo…

Towards High Fidelity Face Relighting With Realistic Shadows

CVPR 2021poster

Existing face relighting methods often struggle with two problems: maintaining the local facial details of the subject and accurately removing and synthesizing shadows in the relit image, especially hard shadows. We propose a novel deep face relighting method that addresses both problems. Our method…
