Domain Adaptive Object Detection (DAOD) addresses the challenge of transferring object detectors from labeled source domains to unlabeled target domains. Existing domain adaptation methods primarily rely on feature distribution alignment, which enhances domain-invariant features (statistical invaria…
The growing demand for efficient image segmentation in marine ecological studies is currently constrained by two key factors: the high computational requirements of models such as the Segment Anything Model (SAM) and the degraded accuracy of lightweight models in underwater environments. To overcome
We investigate coral reef semantic segmentation, in which coral reefs are governed by multifaceted factors, like genes, environmental changes, and internal interactions. Unlike segmenting structural units/instances, which are predictable and follow a set pattern, also referred to as commonsense or p…
Recent progress in generative diffusion models has greatly advanced text-to-video generation. While text-to-video models trained on large-scale, diverse datasets can produce varied outputs, these generations often deviate from user preferences, highlighting the need for preference alignment on pre-t…
Underwater visual understanding has recently gained increasing attention within the computer vision community for studying and monitoring underwater ecosystems. Among these coral reefs play an important and intricate role often referred to as the rainforests of the sea due to their rich biodiversity…
Learning-based underwater image enhancement (UIE) methods have made great progress. However the lack of large-scale and high-quality paired training samples has become the main bottleneck hindering the development of UIE. The inter-frame information in underwater videos can accelerate or optimize th…
Addressing domain shifts for complex perception tasks in autonomous driving has long been a challenging problem. In this paper, we show that existing domain adaptation methods pay little attention to the content mismatch issue between source and target domains, thus weakening the domain adaptation p…
Robust and accurate localization plays a key role in autonomous driving and robot applications. To utilize the complementary properties of different sensors, we present a novel tightly-coupled approach to combine the local (stereo cameras, IMU) and global sensors (magnetometer, GNSS). We jointly opt…
We present a ForkGAN for task-agnostic image translation that can boost multiple vision tasks in adverse weather conditions. Three tasks of image localization/retrieval, semantic image segmentation, and object detection are evaluated. The key challenge is achieving high-quality image translation wit…
Image-to-image translation has been made much progress with embracing Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). However, it's still very challenging for translation tasks that require high quality, especially at high-resolution and photorealism. In this paper, we present Discriminative Region Proposal…
